Aija managed to get the Àvo. Zuri is with Nala. Ze is ready to take on new responsibilities. And Thieron, Luka, and Nala are on their side. They have saved the human race - for now. But they are caught in a new War - the Leadership's altercation with the Gale. The six of them have been through their own intense journeys, bringing them face to face with their newfound feelings, taking some relationships to the next level and some...not. Their stories continue in the third part of The Earthen Series, as Aija, Zuri, Ze, Thieron, Luka, Nala, Xan, Goldstar, Aa'di Irih'va and Ja'wri Ruyanir grapple with their feelings, new realities, new challenges, and new threats. Just as they consider the peril to the human race done, new ones crop up - from the most unexpected of people, changing all of their lives. Forever.

We all bleed the same. --- Leah can never return home until she has uncovered a rare technology. A piece of equipment she destroyed by accident. Either she fulfills her debt or dies trying. Her only option is to find a solution somewhere else. An unearthly place. But she could never accomplish it without help from an insider. A boy she's highly attracted to. And it's suicidal to have feelings for an upgraded human. #FiveYearsSinceCollabContest Note: I do not own the picture used for this book cover (except for some minor editings).

"What's wrong with you?" he asked me. There that sentence hung in the air between us, and I remember now how I wasn't looking at him. How instead I looked up at the clouds that seemed to run faster than my thoughts. "Yeah, there's a word for it," I think I said. - lowercase intended. cover drawn by me.

Being skeptical may turn out to be the best virtue of all, when an incredulous man meets his end and somehow finds himself at the gates of Heaven-or so he is told by the old man with the long beard who is clearly terrible at acting. An attempt at social satire by name-dropping as many afterlives as it takes to convince a skeptic, which turns out to be too many-because no matter how much these "actors" try, Tom is no fool and this "welcome to the afterlife" nonsense must have a limit.

After major coastal cities sink to the bottom of the ocean at the end of the twenty-first century, the richest inhabitants of Earth escape the planet to build new colonies in a distant solar system. Thirty six light years away from the Milky Way galaxy, centuries have passed and humanity is well established. Among the most notable establishments is a prestigious university for the study of alien biology. Moira, a girl with a pervasive developmental disorder, but a talented student nonetheless, navigates the challenge of interplanetary university life as she researches a rare and endangered species. When a deeper threat emerges that challenges the existence of these creatures, she must team up with her classmates and find a solution to a problem much bigger than they could ever hope to be. ***** Credits: The cover is courtesy of the brilliant @vertigo_moon from The Vertigo Graphics while the line editing/proofreading/grammar check was done with a lot of input from Halyn Bleiz a.k.a vin_elend from the Floret community and Katie Marie from the Coven of Bookworms community. They have my gratitude. The blurb was written with some help from @RowanCarver and I am thankful for her feedbacks.
