Nat came to England with a plan: finish her master's degree in Manchester, move to London, and finally start the life she had imagined for herself. Disley was never part of it. When her friend Emma convinces her to spend the summer in the quiet English town where she grew up while they finish their graduation projects, Nat expects a change of scenery. Instead, she finds herself surrounded by Emma's family, a chaotic but endearing group of friends, a family café she keeps finding reasons to return to, and a life that feels unexpectedly easy to become part of. And then there's Emma's older brother, Harry Harwood. Quiet, reserved, and more comfortable behind the counter of his family's café than talking about himself, Harry isn't someone Nat planned on getting close to. Neither, really, is any of this.

Nat always thought she knew what came next. Now, surrounded by people she never expected to matter this much, she's beginning to wonder if figuring out her future might mean letting herself want something she never planned for.

More than a thousand years have elapsed since the tragic fall of the ancient civilization of humans living on land that forced the emergence of an ultramodern way in which human society can operate - a system that has been caging its people from the moment it was born. But that is not the case for Naia, a teenage girl who has never let the invisible leash stop her from finding answers to the tragedy that has trapped them in a sphere. Until one of her quests led her to a remnant of a past that no one in their world had ever experienced. She was transported to a world that had already died centuries ago - or so everyone thought. The answers to her questions are now bound to be fulfilled by a place that time had buried and a life that her world had forgotten. And it is now in her hands, and a few others, to break the system that has cuffed her people onto the bar of subservience and bring back what once was theirs. Only that, Naia has yet to realize she is pointing her weapon at the wrong enemy. - Date started: 07/09/2026 Cover design: DioLuci
