But, when an unexpected ship looms on the horizon, bringing with it a fell beast of the sky, Cilos must now leave his home and partner with the alluring Maris who not only is his best chance of saving his sister Creeyl, but to stop the ever looming threat of Scelus, a dark God of the deep, and the sinister acolytes who will stop at nothing to undue his imprisonment.

THE DREAMCHART OF THE LEVIATHAN A Novel of the Kun The sea does not remember. It dreams. Eighteen-year-old Xi wakes in the iron belly of a colonial warship, her body covered in glowing cartographic tattoos, her memory an ocean of black water. She does not weep. She does not scream. She draws her finger along the glowing lines of her own skin, as if tracing a map she cannot read, and wonders why the light feels like home. Xi is a dreamweaver-one of the lost few who can enter the dreams of the great sea-beasts called the Kun. It is the Kun who dream the world's sea routes into being, their vast sleeping bodies the only charts the ocean has ever known. The Eastern Star-Flags Alliance has sailed these dream-routes for centuries. The colonial Iron Federation has spent fifty years destroying them, hunting the Kun and forging their remains into cold, perfect steel maps that need no living thing to exist. They want Xi to be their weapon. They want her to find the last of the Kun. And they want her to do it before the Eastern Star-Flags Alliance can use her to save them. But the first time Xi's consciousness is forced into the dream-current, something goes wrong. She tears across three hundred miles of open sea and collides with Lu Changfeng, a young navigator aboard the last great ship of the Star-Flags Alliance. For thirteen seconds, she is not Xi. She is a boy standing on a moon-bright deck, his palm rough against a bone-white wind flute, his heart beating against her ribs like a second, unfamiliar tide. When the connection shatters, they are strangers again. But each bears the other's reflection branded on the back of the hand. A mark that aches when the other is afraid. A bond that will demand a price neither of them can foresee. Lu Changfeng believes the East must change or die. He wants to build a future with rules, with structure, with a chance to survive. Xi doesn't know what she believes-except that the old dream-routes are alive, and killing them feels lik

A creepy take on nautical fantasy

Time heeds no man.

When Michael Dillan entered the whaling business, he never expected his beloved ship, the SS Dawn, to disappear from his grasp after only two years as her captain. Yet the missing ship was not his only problem; he had washed ashore in a different state altogether, 234 years into the future! As Scarlett, a young lady of the present time, cares for the injured captain, they soon grow fond of one another. When clues from the past show up to haunt them, Scarlett promises to get Michael home; yet he had just begun to learn what that phrase means.

So, if we're being entirely honest with each other here, I couldn't actually tell you why I'm posting this here, largely because I myself am currently unaware of any such reasoning. Maybe I want to warn anyone looking to get involved with this company (although, for some reason, I highly doubt that any of you were in danger of that regardless) or perhaps I just wanted someone to know just what happened down there, so although this may not be the full story, as I have expunged some of the more graphic details, here it is, in it's entirety and suffering from terrible first draft syndrome. Now, I'm gonna just wrap this up as I feel as though I'm just rambling on at this point so I'll leave you with a simple 'good luck'

With danger lurking in every wave and whispers of a monstrous sea serpent haunting her quest, Niamh must rely on her wits, her crew, and an enigmatic selkie whose charm could melt even the hardest hearts. But in a world where loyalty is tested and myths become reality, the lines between friend and foe are never clear. As Niamh ventures into uncharted waters, where forgotten cities and cursed seas await, the greatest battle she faces may not be with the monsters of the deep, but with the secrets hidden in her own heart.
