Afstammelingen van de Duisternis

Deze serie duikt in de levens van bovennatuurlijke wachters die belast zijn met het toezicht houden op zielen en het verzekeren van hun doorgang naar het hiernamaals. De protagonist, een jonge en enigszins stuntelige Shinigami, worstelt niet alleen met onhandelbare geesten en misdaden, maar ook met bureaucratische hindernissen en onverwachte kosten die verband houden met zijn veeleisende baan. De verhalen combineren op vakkundige wijze bovennatuurlijke actie met elementen van romantiek, humor en volwassen thema's, wat zorgt voor een onderscheidend boeiende leeservaring.

  1. The business of Death is never done. Asato Tsuzuki works as a Shinigami, or "Guardian o Death," in the Ministry of Hades. It's his duty to make sure that the souls of the dead reach the afterlife, but contrary ghosts and humanity's evils keep getting in the way of a job well done. With all these problem assignments, will he ever get a bonus...or will he be stuck paying back damages for all eternity? As a Guardian of Death, Asato Tsuzuki has a lot to think about. First of all, there are all those dead people. Someone's got to escort them safely to the afterlife. Then there's all that bureaucracy. The affairs of death come with a lot of paperwork, budgetary concerns and endless arcana. Combining supernatural action with heavy dollops of romance, sex and humor, Descendants of Darkness proves one thing: Death is big business...and business is good!
