Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the 'latter days' of Gotham, a metropolis plagued by strife and corruption, ruled by Ulysses and home to a mysterious cult that worships Dahl Lar. It follows Cornelius, a powerful man at odds with Daniel, a Pharisee who dares to challenge him.
