Hellboy creator Mike Mignola wanted to take his comic book creation, the world's greatest paranormal investigator, into different territory. So he hooked up with Christopher Golden, author of Of Saints and Shadows to write a prose novel featuring Hellboy. The result is this 208-page story about a team of archeologists who head toward the Great Sand Sea near Libya to exhume evidence of a missing army of 50,000 men that disappeared in 525 B.C. When the archeologists go missing, the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense sends Hellboy to investigate. This edition features 68 black and white illustrations by Mignola.

Plot:

In 525 BC, a fifty-thousand strong army of Persian King Cambyses vanished without trace in a great sandstorm in the Egyptian desert. Now, in 1986, an American archaeological team has also gone missing and its the job of Hellboy, the world's finest paranormal investigator, to find them.
