death

"The remaining Death Weapons, along with Kid, gather to stage their assault on the moon. As they approach the Kishin's hideout, Stein and Justin clash in a violent, madness-fueled battle. Stein struggles to maintain his grip on sanity while Justin draws power from the Kishin's inexhaustible aura of madness. Everyone knows there will be casualties on the road to restoring "order"--but will Stein become the first?"--Back cover.

Four people are drawn together when they come to investigate strange deaths and discover dark secrets at Moonlight Cove.

Twenty-eight-year-old Christopher Snow, a man who has a rare skin disorder that makes him unable to tolerate light, teams up with his surfer friends Bobby and Sasha, as well as his unusually intelligent dog Orson, to solve the mystery of what happened to his father's corpse, which for some unknown reason has been stolen from the hospital.

DWMA braces for the final showdown as the Kishin awakens from his slumber at the heart of the moon. Unable to contain his rage, Noah is the first to attack the Book of Eibon and "Brew" fueling his assault. Despite his formidable efforts, though, Noah is overcome not by the Kishin, but by the sudden appearance of Crona. With world hanging in the balance, DWMA can only wonder who will prove to be the greater foe-the Kishin...or Crona.

"Crona's crimes have become too terrible to ignore, and the troubled youth is added to Shinigami's list. Hoping to reach her friend first, Maka extends her soul perception ability to engulf the entire planet. But the sweep delivers even more than she had bargained for--the location of Kishin's hideout"--Back cover.

"Kid has been freed from Noah's greedy clutches, but The Book of Eibon remains at large. Noah was a troublesome foe, but the vast knowledge contained within the book could itself be dangerous--and information is not all that lies in its pages... Meanwhile, Crona has resurfaced in Moscow, his madness and Medusa's maternal pressure having all but consumed the friend Maka once new"--Back cover.

Inside Baba Yaga Castle, Maka, Soul, and Medusa prepare to face the mad witch, Arachne, in her chambers. With everyone in and around the castle under Arachne's spell, Soul must perform a string concerto that will move his audience to their souls, or become trapped himself.

Medusa plots to beat DWMA and her sister, Arachne, in the race for Eibon's demon tools, and Maka, Black Star, and Kid step up their training with their weapons.

Black Star wants to overpower his friend Death the Kid, who has embraced a new world order.

Black Star has found a way to harness the power of the Uncanny Sword as Maka and a team of DWMA students disguise themselves as Arachnophobian guards to enter Baba Yaga Castle.
