Elysium is the sequel to the Time of the Titans, and begins where Book I ended: Mikael and his three companions leaving the island by a titan-made flying vessel, steered by Prince Sen, an entity of artificial intelligence in which its programmer, Mir, lives forever. They head for the great unknown - a world called Elysium where people awoken from eversleep by the titans have lived for a few generations. This world turns out to be a lot darker place than the initial glimpses of its serene forests and grasslands suggest, but our heroes are determined to pursue their separate yet temporarily converging quests.
The protagonist, Mikael, is driven by the desire to find and rescue his beloved Mary Darling and the nine schoolgirls who disappeared with her. His young allies from the Brotherhood, Max and Roland, are eager to discover the new world so far concealed from them, with the chance of reconnecting with the White Lady who once left them on the island and took twenty girls with her. Brynhilde, a redhead from Elysium, offered to join them as their guide, as she's the only one in the group who's been where they are going.
Right from the start, things fail to go as planned. A long odyssey through an unknown world awaits the four travelers, with new friends and new enemies encountered on the way. They soon realize that everyone seems to be after them: the powerful Palatine Order, the mysterious Templar Order, an unconventional reptile trader, a cunning spy, and behind everything, the shadows of the Dark Duke, the Hierophant, and the Skull Princess pulling the strings in their own power plots.

Hybrid: The Awakening
Nobody expects something supernatural to happen to them. Those kind of things only happened in comics. Fairy Tales. Unrealistic dreams that you'd fall asleep to, silently wishing for them to come true. At least, that was what these three teenagers thought. It turns out that there is so much more to their simple universe than they ever could have imagined. After each finding a strange alien artifact, the teens are suddenly thrusted into an intergalactic war. Alien species everywhere are trying to hunt down the most powerful weapons in the galaxy. And they are the ones in possession of it. When they run into a girl that claims to be from another planet, the three kids learn about the power given to them and the responsibilities that come along with it. Instantly, they are the most popular people in the galaxy. And for once, popularity couldn't feel more like a curse. Fighting grudges, fear, and distrust, the Chosen humans must travel to the one place on Earth where they might be safe. And with strange new powers, the teenagers struggle to live in the unfamiliar world they thought they knew so well.Concluida
Spectrum
Everyone knows evil exists, but most people die before they witness it in its purest form. His home is a place of simplicity, order, a city without troubles. So, why does it have so many enemies? Nicolas was one of many who bore witness to a terrifying scene; the threat of their greatest enemy is materializing before their own eyes. Who could've guessed his life was about to get more complicated? When his government forces him into a dangerous mission, Nicolas has to taste the darkness to warn them of the poison that has already seeped behind their walls. With all the courage he can find, Nicolas slinks into the heart of his enemy, his lips weighed down by lies. The threat level grows, the clock slowly runs out, and his humanity slips through his fingers like the sand on which he rages a war no one can see, and no one can know. If his enemies find out his secret, he dies. If he doesn't pay close attention, he dies. If he doesn't succeed, everyone he loves dies. But, if it helps him save his family, perhaps evil in its purest form...isn't such a bad thing.Concluida

Beneath the Shadowlanders
We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.Concluida
