About this series

My name is Eddie Drood, and the Powers That Be have taken everything...

Eddie Drood has lost everyone important to him. His parents mysteriously disappeared and no one else in his family seems to care. His beloved uncle, the last family member he could trust, has just passed away. And now his girlfriend, Molly Metcalf, is missing.

On his own and without the protection of the Drood family, Eddie pieces together the truth of their disappearances: both his parents and Molly have been kidnapped by the mysterious Powers That Be. Eddie has to break a few Drood family rules and a few ancient treaties to follow them. He’ll have to risk everything to win their freedom, or lose their lives -- and their souls -- forever.

    The Spy Who Haunted Me

    New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green continues his Secret Histories series with debonair-yet-deadly paranormal agent Eddie Drood pulled into a hunt for a treasure worth far more than mere money… As part of a family legacy representing courage, determination, and the occasional dirty trick, Eddie Drood rather enjoys making his own rules—and breaking them. When it comes to facing down the darkest entities in creation and putting real boots to ethereal ass, he’s the best in the biz. Or at least one of the best. He thinks. That’s why he’s been summoned to the deathbed of the one and only Alexander King—a living (for now) legend in the realm of otherworldly cloak-and-dagger operations. As an independent agent, King has managed to collect quite a cache of secrets, conspiracies, and evidence worth killing for and then some. And he’s putting the whole lot up for grabs in a twisted game of intelligence, skill, and survival. Pitted against a selection of prime recruits from all over the supernatural spy game, Eddie is going to have to call on all his skills and dirty tricks, to come out ahead in the great spy game where only the quick and the cool survive. Because one of King’s prized secrets is going to help Eddie uncover a hidden threat within his own family… “Bright, fast-paced…Eddie makes a likable hero, and fans will enjoy following him through this surprisingly complex mystery.”—Publishers Weekly “Eddie gets to the bottom of things with style and a particularly cynical sense of humor. Series-spinner Green’s Drood books are fun, funny, and action-packed, and Eddie is one of his most entertaining creations.”—Booklist

    Daemons Are Forever

    New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green continues his Secret Histories fantasy adventure series featuring supernatural super agent Eddie Drood. The name’s Drood. Shaman Drood. For centuries, my seriously dysfunctional family have been battling the forces of evil, all the while keeping you everyday folks safe, sound, and blissfully unaware of just how truly nasty this world can be. And due to some recent internal conflicts, I’m the man in charge of the whole mess. So, of course, things are about to go sideways. It turns out that in the darkest days of World War II, my family was in a hard place, fighting a desperate battle against some infernal creatures the Nazis had brought into the fray. So, the Droods decided to fight fiend with fiend, making a very stupid deal with a bunch of demons called the Loathly Ones to take our side. The good news is they did a hell of a job. The bad news is they decided to stick around. Now, they’re calling home to let their even more nightmarish masters know that this world is ripe for conquest. And me and mine are the only ones who can stop them.

    The next thrilling chapter in New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green’s Secret Histories fantasy adventure series featuring supernatural super-agent Eddie Drood. The name’s Drood. Eddie Drood. And believe me, I wish to hell it wasn’t. Being part of an enigmatic, fractious family who’ve been keeping humanity safe from the world’s more horrifying elements is hard enough. But when the Matriarch of the clan is murdered, it’s a none-for-all, all-for-themselves family feud. And as usual, yours truly is suspect numero uno. Yeah, blood is thinner than water around here, folks. Worse still, second in line for slaughter is my main lady, the magical Molly Metcalfe. So, there’s not much to it except to go on the run and hunt down the true killer. Or should I say killers? Because it turns out there’s another kind of family out there. Think of them as the anti-Droods. They’ve been meddling with mankind in the worst sort of way for thousands of years. Because they’re apparently immortal. They’re also atrociously strong. And now they’ve decided that it’s time for the Droods to go bye-bye. Maybe I should just go home and hug it out with the family…

    For Heaven's Eyes Only

    New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green’s Secret Histories fantasy adventure series featuring supernatural super-agent Eddie Drood continues. Eddie Drood here…well, not quite. Being a member of a secret-yet-legendary family of evil-battlers who have been shielding people from the darkest entities on Earth for ages can take its toll. So lately, I’ve been relaxing. Regrouping. Looking at things from a place of peace and quiet. After all, being dead does have its perks. Lucky for me my lovely witch Molly Metcalfe is able to pull me back to the mortal plane just in time for another disaster to befall the Drood clan and the world in general. It appears there is a Satanist conspiracy in the making. And I don’t mean your typical wear-black-eyeliner, mope-around-the-high-school, rebelling-against-daddy devil devotees. These Satanists are incredibly for real, extremely devoted to their dark lord, and dead serious about breaking down the gates of Hell to unleash…well, Hell. And the key to this is something called the “Great Sacrifice,” a horrific occurrence the likes of which humanity has never conceived—and will never survive. That is, unless an unlikely guardian angel leaps into the fray. Dammit…where did I put my wings and halo…?

    Paranormal secret agent Eddie Drood has never been one to shy away from risk. But in New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green’s seventh Secret Histories novel, the smart-aleck spy is going to gamble far more than he can afford to lose… Eddie Drood (aka: “Shaman Bond”) is on the outs with his capricious family. Nothing too disturbing, mind you. Just some old grudges, long-simmering lies, and the occasional assassination attempt, So, in the name of his own longevity, Eddie’s taking his talents freelance (a man’s got to earn a living). But earning a living can get a lot closer to dying than Eddie would like. Under the auspices of the Department of the Uncanny, Eddie and his witchy love Molly Metcalf have been assigned to attend the Casino Infernale—a gathering of the most powerful, wealthy, and sinister supernatural super criminals hosted by the ever-enigmatic Shadow Bank. Eddie and Molly are to infiltrate the affair, toss some wrenches into the works, and take down the Bank once and for all. The stakes are high, the competition lethal. And while Eddie might be able to buy his way into this game, he won’t be able to buy his way out to save his life… “A fantastic new entry in this series, with his trademark cameos and shout-outs to his own work and many other pop culture touchstones, all building to a shattering climax.”—SFRevu “It’s like literary crack: bad for you, but addictive nonetheless.”—Tor.com

    New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green continues his Secret Histories fantasy adventure series featuring supernatural super agent Eddie Drood. Call me Edwin, Eddie, Shaman Bond…whatever you like. I’ve been called worse, believe me. After once again triumphing over the forces of darkness, Molly Metcalfe, the Witch of the Woods and my love, and I have returned to merry old England. After all, there’s no place like home. No. Seriously. There is no place like home—because the ancient, powerful, and supposedly invulnerable Drood family domicile has been obliterated. Along with my entire back-stabbing-yet-somehow-fiercely-loyal clan. Except that’s not quite right. I mean, sure, things look bleak as hell. But in my line of work looks can be far more than deceiving. They can be deadly. Some fiendish foe has somehow shifted the entirety of my home and kin to another dimension, replacing it with a ruin meant to throw me off the trail. Which means there is a trail. A trail I can follow… And I’m going to enjoy expressing my serious displeasure towards the dirty bastard at the end of it.

    Supernatural agent Eddie Drood is on the job and out of luck as New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green continues his Secret Histories series. Where there are monsters, I am there to stop them. The name’s Eddie Drood. The Droods have been taking on the unnatural baddies of this world for ages, fighting the good fight while you normal types go on with your lives. But even we have a limited lifespan. And when my grandmother passes away and leaves me a gift that would make me the official head of the family, I just knew there had to be a catch. That catch being I had to give up my love, Molly. Forever. But even that life-changer takes a back seat when a group of heavy hitters start taking out the Department of the Uncanny with a special target on the Droods. Naturally, a lot of people (including my own family) think Molly and I are behind the mayhem. With my grandfather KIA and my parents MIA, I have to figure out a way to save my folks, clear my name, and root out the enemy. Which may require a bit of thievery from a very powerful, very mysterious, and very scary entity known as the Lady Faire. But she’s not just a lady. And she definitely doesn’t play fair…
