Marvel Novels - Thanos: Death Sentence

Thanos has spent his life hunting the Infinity Gems. Then the Marvel heroes defeat him once again, and Mistress Death, whom he loves, offers him one last chance.

He pays for it. His powers are taken and his old skin is gone. What remains is a Titan with nothing to command, sent out on a cosmic walkabout to win back mastery over himself and over the Multiverse.

Family follows him on the way, or figures that resemble it, and they keep him from settling into the person he used to be. The Mad Titan may turn into something quite different from the conqueror the heroes know.

The seventh title in Titan Books' Marvel fiction reissue program, this original prose novel stays close to Thanos's own thoughts, with the villain as its centre rather than its threat. The question running through it is whether he clings to his illusions of grandeur or has found a new path as a lost god.
