OverviewIn four harrowing tales by Mexican American authors, we stare directly into the jaws of the Black Demon, an ancient megalodon that prowls the Pacific, unleashing its wrath on any who violate those waters. Along the way, we discover the origins of the massive shark and its seemingly immortal harbinger, a former Spanish priest. We meet Bella González, the naval researcher bent on destroying el Demonio Negro, even at great cost to herself. And we witness righteous devastation of monstrous proportions as the aquatic kaiju fulfills its role as divine champion of the seas, wiping greedy polluters from its waves even in alternate versions of our world. Expanding the universe of the crowd-pleasing film The Black Demon, this kaiju anthology offers up breathtaking thrills and iconic kills with nuances of environmental protection, cutting-edge science, obscure history, and Indigenous lore.
