Book ID/图书代码： 13005416B88192

English Summary/英文概要： From the author of the Escape from Furnace series comes an explosive Faustian horror trilogy about an ordinary kid and a life-changing bargain...

There is a machine from the darkest parts of history, concealed in an impossible location, that can make any wish come true—and the only price you have to pay is your soul. Known as the Devil’s Engine, this device powers an invisible, centuries-old war between good and evil that will decide the fate of every living thing on Earth.

When a sixteen-year-old asthmatic kid named Marlow Green finds himself trapped in a demonic firefight in the middle of his NYC neighborhood, he discovers a squad of secret soldiers dedictated to battling the legions of the Devil himself. Faced with monstrous apparitions, ancient weaponry, and a lot worse, Marlow submits to a hellish deal that enables him to join the battle - if it doesn’t kill him first.

患有哮喘的16岁男孩Marlow Green在纽约居住区里被困在了一场激烈的火拼之中，他发现有一群秘密士兵正致力于对抗“恶魔”派出的军团。他不得不面对巨大的幽灵、古老的武器……更糟糕的是，他达成了一笔地狱般可怕的交易，从而能够加入这场战斗——只要他没有被杀死。（LYR）
