'REGICIDE,' Part Four The finale of the hard-hitting supernatural noir series from Minotaur Press is here. Alec King, the suicidal immortal, has been beat down, stabbed, and shot so many times he's beginning to lose count. But finally, the man responsible for his best friend's death is in his sights.
