The 33, Episode 1: Pramantha [Part 1 of 4]

Pramantha: Part 1 is the first episode of THE 33: award-winning author J.C. Hutchins' innovative new monthly series.

After cutting a deal with a mysterious recruiter, Addison Creel is thrust into a world he barely understands. He's been called to join The 33 — a group of thirty-three misfits tasked with protecting humanity from ruthless criminals, malicious technologies, black magicians and hostile supernatural beings.

Addison's first day on the job brims with brainbenders: teleportation, sorcery, nanotech. But that's easy compared to his first mission: Investigating a rash of violent, shocking suicides at a high-tech, high-profile commune in Washington.

Will Addison's unusual gift — and the gifts of other The 33 members Bliss, Azael, Mad_Ana and John Swords III — be enough to thwart the twisted epidemic before it spreads?

Inspired by episodic TV and serialized comic book stories, The 33 is a high-stakes genre mash of action, sci-fi and supernatural thriller. New episodes are released monthly.
