He serves Master Hayward, a callous plantation owner, slave trader, and black magician who lives in the lowcountry of the South Carolina colony.

What follows in this story is an adventure filled with peril and action, as Ludwig struggles to fulfill his duty in the name of his master.

Classical grimoires. Alien artifacts. A mysterious play that has circulated through the masses. The American Space Program struggles to figure out what is behind the new findings of ancient extraterrestrial spacecraft marked with an enigmatic yellow sign and their connection to various deaths throughout America. Robert McCray feels confident that he knows the answer. The King in Yellow is in all of the details, an otherworldly monarch more real than the rational age would like to believe. There are experts willing to support Robert's theories, including Dr. Edward Manning, a professor and skilled ceremonial magician. Once Robert's dissertation on The King in Yellow is published, however, there's no guarantee that the paper will stir up enough interest to take The King's threat seriously, or if the world is doomed to a faith worse than death.In a story that mixes Chamber's mythos with mystery cults of the Mediterranean and Anatolia, Alderbaran Apocalypse is the fourth King in Yellow story written by Brian Barr. Brian Barr's King in Yellow Collection, which will consist of all four of his KIY stories, will be out soon!
