The End of the World: From the Scrolls of Sinanju (The Destroyer)

FOLLOW YOUR NOSE! An ancient Mayan god has risen from millennia of slumber to bring about the prophesied end of the world. Skeletal and reeking of putrefaction, Cizin the Stinking One creeps into his victims’ dreams, bending their minds to his apocalyptic ends, with the United States’ nuclear stockpile as his ultimate target. How do you defeat an enemy that's been dead for over 2500 years? Certainly not with conventional weapons. No, when America confronts an eldritch adversary, it turns to Remo Williams, who must once again put it all on the line in the service of his country and the world. ABOUT THE SERIES: Sentenced to death for a crime he didn't commit, ex-cop Remo Williams is rescued from the electric chair and recruited by a secret government organization as an assassin, targeting criminals who are beyond the law. Remo's trainer is a curmudgeonly old Korean named Chiun, whose mastery of the terrifyingly powerful martial art of Sinanju makes him the deadliest man alive. The winning combination of action, humor, and mysticism has made the Destroyer one of the best-selling series of all time. With more than 150 books and over 50 million copies sold worldwide, the Destroyer has been praised by the LA Times as "flights of hilarious satire," and gave birth to the mythology of the brash young Westerner taught by an ancient, inscrutable master.
