Book description
The Alien Hunter is playing with fire...
Daniel X is on an impossible mission: to eliminate every
intergalactic criminal on the face of the Earth. Using his incredible
superpower to create objects out of thin air, he's taken on some of
the most fearsome and fiendish aliens in the universe. Now Daniel has
travelled to England in search of his next target: the explosive demon
of fire Phosphorius Beta and his army of flame-weaving henchmen.
But it's going to take a whole new level of mojo to destroy this
villain. Beta's strength has been growing since he arrived on Earth
more than a millennium ago, and he's finally ready to turn the blue
planet into his own fiery wasteland. The only way to stop him is by
jumping back in time to the Dark Ages to end Beta's blistering reign
before it has a chance to begin. But can Daniel X take the heat? Or
will the Alien Hunter finally get burned?
