Horror of the Rising Sun....Tokyo, Japan, the 23rd Century: in a teeming metropolis powered by a blend of technology and magic, something inhuman is stalking the streets at night and slaughtering young women. Inspector Akiro Katayama, sorcerer agent in charge of investigating crimes involving magic, only has only one clue to work with - the scale of a dragon.Desperate to solve the case, Katayama enlists the aid of a streetwise homicide detective and Japan's most famous wizard, but they have no idea of the awesome power they're dealing with. The only ones who understand the threat are the four people chosen by an ancient spell to stop it - a bumbling young warlock, a beautiful cat burglar, an English punk possessed by the spirit of Merlin the Magician, and the immortal son of the legendary King Arthur. Only they know the truth about the seductive necromancer who's behind the killings, but can they help Katayama stop her before she casts the most deadly spell of all?

Kevin Mitnick was the most wanted hacker in the world. He was called "The Condor," and "Mr. Cyberpunk." He was a rebel. A loner. A poor kid from California thumbing his nose at society as he hacked into phone companies, international corporations--and possibly even the U.S. Military Command. The FBI couldn't stop him. And they sure as hell couldn't catch him. Then Kevin Mitnick did the "impossible." He got into the personal home computer of the man considered by many a master of cybersecurity, Tsutomu Shimomura. That computer held data for advanced security systems and top secret intrusion and surveillance tools. Shimomura--a modern-day intellectual samurai--decided Mitnick had to be stopped. He had the high-tech gadgets and the brains to do it. Now the leading expert on computer crime made it a matter of honor to bring America's most notorious computer criminal to justice. But the Information Highway is the perfect place to run, hide and get away with dirty tricks... Let the battle begin.
