She was meant to be a pawn in their game of thrones. Instead, she broke the board. Tired of the suffocating politics of the Red Keep and deeply wounded by her father's decisions, sixteen-year-old Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen makes an unthinkable choice. Leaving behind only farewell letters, she takes to the sky on her golden dragon, Syrax, and vanishes into the night-shattering the line of succession and plunging the Seven Kingdoms into an unprecedented political deadlock. While King's Landing fractures in her absence-leaving Queen Alicent to desperately forge new alliances and hold a crumbling court together-Rhaenyra charts a bold new path across the Narrow Sea. In the ancient, storied cities of Essos, she transforms from a fugitive princess into a sovereign dragonlord in her own right, building an independent empire of wealth and influence entirely on her own terms. Driven by forgotten bloodlines and ancient visions, Rhaenyra's journey leads her beyond the edges of the known world to a fortress of fused stone hidden beneath the bones of a titan dragon. There, deep within the subterranean fires of a forgotten realm, she uncovers secrets capable of reshaping the future of House Targaryen forever. Rich in Valyrian lore, political intrigue, and grand ambition, Geros ilas is an epic tale of a princess who refused to be ruled-and the realm she left burning in her wake.

Universal Verse is the sequel to Yesh Soprano's debut book Scrolls and Chapters.

They grew up in two houses standing opposite each other, sharing everything from childhood secrets to stolen sweets, from silly fights to promises whispered beneath the moon. She dreamed of becoming a doctor in a society that believed a girl's dreams should end at marriage. He dreamed of becoming a barrister and promised her that no matter how far life took him, he would always come back. Everyone around them already saw them as inevitable-two childhood best friends destined to become one family. But then came London. Eight years. Hundreds of letters. Five years of believing, three years of silence... and a promise that neither of them knew would be tested by distance, society, misunderstandings, and time. Because sometimes, the hardest part of loving someone isn't falling in love with them... it's believing they will still choose you when they finally come back. But will Abhay really return? And when he does... will Anagha still be waiting? Because some love stories begin with a "hello"... while theirs began with two houses, one childhood, and a promise- "Tum lautoge na?" ❤️

Odessia is a world of ancient empires, forgotten histories, and lands still untouched by those who claim to rule them. Yet beyond the boundaries of kingdoms and the certainty of men, something long hidden has begun to stir. When a summons from Elysium calls a chosen company toward Agartha and the Seventh Mountain, lives separated by distance, rank, and history are quietly drawn toward the same path. Isabella Azure-Cerulean, Queen of Odessia, carries an authority older than many of the civilizations surrounding her-and burdens few truly understand. Hadeon O'Connor, a knight of the secluded Empire of Avalon, has spent his life behind the boundaries of a realm that has little desire for the world beyond its own walls. Neither knows how deeply their paths have already been entwined. Across Odessia, old enemies move beneath the shadows. Forgotten promises begin to awaken. Kingdoms guard their secrets, ancient powers watch from beyond mortal sight, and a journey that first appears to concern only a mountain slowly reveals the beginnings of something far greater. For some, Agartha is a destination. For others, it is a calling. And for those whose histories have not truly been forgotten, it may be the place where everything begins again.
