India Rose & The Eternals - The Fountain Of Youth Chronicles Vol. 1 by TincanCaldwell

For fans of the Harry Potter universe, LOST and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children: What if that really was the Mona Lisa that India Rose saw walking around her small, Maine town? What if her father's innocent bedtime stories of hidden mysteries below the river and secret identities of ordinary citizens were more than mere fairy tales? Why did her essay on her town's history make a few select town officials so angry? And why was young Finn and his master (who bears more than a passing resemblance to Leonardo da Vinci) sent across the sea to the new world on a mission to protect "the secret" that his order has been charged to guard? Told over the course of almost one hundred years and multiple continents, India Rose and the Eternals tells the parallel stories, told in concurrent chapters, of twelve-year-old India Rose and two-hundred-and twelve-year-old Finnegan Rufus Magondolovich (don't ask him about his middle or last names) who are both struggling to understand the upheaval in their own little worlds. Add to this the sinister Man In The Brown Hat and his shadowy organization, who are chasing Finn and his master across the globe, an oil spill that threatens India's coastal town, a stern Head Librarian who seems to have it in for India, and India Rose and the Eternals packs enough adventure and hairpin turns to keep readers turning pages. With strong themes of using your gifts and abilities for the good of others and the rise, use and abuse of technology, India Rose and the Eternals is the opening salvo in the expansive Water Chronicles universe, a series that takes contemporary notions of history and re-examines them.

where the thorns grow by nyxiekitsune

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE IS INVITED STRAIGHT INTO THE HEART OF YOUR HOUSE? Seven years ago, Rhysa Jiang ran. She buried her past, chose to start over from a clean slate. She became a near legend, the only female Iron Wolf, deciding to become something new. They've hunted her down ever since, and until now she'd managed to evade their search. But now they've been invited to Sai. The Scarlet Palace. Her only home, her safe haven. And Rhysa has a suspicious feeling she's not going to be able to escape the Falcons' grasp this time. After all, she's a deserter, and those pay in blood around here. Dominic Lang had learnt long ago that Rhysa's past was something that shouldn't be dug up. Sure, he had his suspicions, but after being partners for six years, you learnt to trust someone. And if there was one thing he knew about Rhys, it was that the girl was fearless. So her sudden terror makes no sense. Her sudden caution, her sudden reluctance to even show her face in public is completely baffling. And he'll get to the bottom of this. Because Rhysa Jiang had been hiding the entirety of herself from him for too long, because there was nothing he loved more than a good mystery and challenge, and Rhys might just be the biggest one of all. It was just what friends do. (book #1 of 4 in the court of bones series, the third instalment in the silk and steel chronicles can be read as a stand-alone)

The Labyrinth Keys by matthewp118

In the sprawling waste zones of Ashfield, a city choked by the refuse of a broken society, Jack Vesper sorts through discarded junk with no real future in sight. At 25, he's just another misfit, another person tossed aside by the world, now working a grueling job as a garbage sorter. The days are monotonous, but when he stumbles upon a strange, black metal sphere buried deep in the trash, everything changes. Curious, Jack presses a hidden button on the sphere, releasing a small black chip into his hand. It feels heavy with mystery and potential, too precise to be just another piece of discarded tech. With no one else around on a slow Saturday shift, Vesper pockets the chip and continues his work, unaware that this seemingly insignificant object is about to pull him into a new, dangerous world. Jack's curiosity gets the better of him, and he travels to a long-forgotten lab on the outskirts of the city. The lab, once a hub for cutting-edge research, is now abandoned, its halls lined with old maps, blueprints, and cryptic notes. As he begins to study the charts, he discovers a book of labyrinths spanning the globe-labyrinths not just made of stone, but of technology and power, their existence hidden from the world. Some of these labyrinths hold secrets of unimaginable value; others, unfathomable dangers. The chip seems to be a key-a gateway into these labyrinths. As Jack begins to piece together the labyrinth's secrets, he realizes that it could lead him to a power unlike anything the world has ever known. But with that power comes the threat of those who would stop at nothing to control it. The line between friend and foe blurs, and Vesper must navigate not only the physical maze but the twisted web of secrets and lies surrounding him. The adventure begins with one small chip-and the future depends on what Jack discovers within the labyrinth's depths.
