After completing a mission in Absalom, a band of Pathfinders finds themselves in Almas, hoping for a moment of rest. But when a ship's crew starts vanishing-leaving behind eerie wooden effigies-the group is pulled into a sinister mystery. Dark forces stir beneath the surface, ancient powers seek to awaken, and the Pathfinders must face not only a growing cult but also the most dangerous foes of all-their own twisted reflections.

Set in the world of Golarion, within the Inner Sea region, this story weaves together the lore and background of Pathfinder 2e, exploring the dark corners of faith, fate, and deception. As the line between reality and nightmare blurs, the party must rely on wit, steel, and each other to unravel the truth before an unholy summoning reshapes the world around them.

With humor, tension, and action, The Unseen Tide is a tale of courage, deception, and the battle against the shadows that lurk within us all.

Gamleon's Tail ~ Welcome to the worlds of : Within ~ by Cicada3300

I wrote this for EVERYONE. To appeal to anyone that reads ANY genre. It combines almost all of them. It's an introduction to the Worlds of Within universe. When you get to the action parts (which doesn't take long) you should be invested enough to want to unravel the mysteries and enjoy its intrigue... The flood is raging. A terrifying, heartless mountain of water, swallowing the world . The tunnel networks? Of course, that won't save them. The forests? Like leaves in a breeze. The lookout towers and trade hubs? Gone. Washed clean. Every home, every last trace of what once was. Gamleon is the first to see it ... and survive. His mind is near collapse, his heart broken. He runs. What would YOU do? What could anyone do? Some scrape by in a mythological setting of beasts and medieval men. Cruel, literally cold-blooded Gorgon hordes enforce an absolute rule slithering in the tunnels beneath the feet of every kingdom. There is an isolated, forgotten place. A cavern, magnificent and vast, older than civilization. A place where the weird and the unwanted might ride out this cataclysm if Gamleon can stay alive long enough to get them there.. In this special place, something incredible, cut off from the outside, lurks. Something... you won't be ready for or ever expect. Gamleon, our weary adventurer, is a paradox: terrifying to some perhaps, yet his heart and intent is helpful, with a quiet dignity bordering on noble, intimidating and innately intelligent. The only way back out is to navigate the Gorgon tunnels. Join him, won't you ? Share his inner thoughts . See and feel how they help us all learn how to persist and triumph in spite of a world where everything is stacked against us. ( sound familiar, it should.) Join him and be swept away as he encounters or invents never-before-seen innovations and outrageous challenges. Dignity meets hope. Self-respect shines beyond courage. Welcome my friend to the Worlds of Within.

Shadow Road: Book 1 of the Shadows Rising Trilogy by AEPennymaker

Brenorra Warring's father is going crazy. That's the only conclusion Bren can make when a fire destroys everything they own, and his answer is to take a job in the uncivilized Coalition Colonial Region on the other side of the ocean. Then disaster strikes again. Her father is lost at sea, and Bren is left with nothing but the clothes on her back, the things in her father's satchel, and the discovery that he has been lying about his reasons for leaving. When more of her father's secrets come to light, it becomes clear that someone powerful is killing innocent people to keep those secrets hidden - and they are hunting for Bren. As the only person alive who can figure out what her father knew, Bren winds up forming an alliance with two very different men. The first has been tasked with keeping her safe, and will do anything it takes to bring down the organization stalking her, no matter the cost. The other is a brilliant but icy Naval hero who has been branded a wanted man by the enemy. With time running out and danger rising, Bren must solve the trail of coded messages her father left for her and find the last piece of the puzzle before it falls into the wrong hands. The only rule of this game: do not get caught.

The Forsaken Spire by underthedraft

A single, towering city rises from a vast, lifeless wasteland-a remnant of an ancient war that shattered the world. The Spire is surrounded by a powerful storm barrier, keeping the horrors outside at bay. It is said that beyond the storm, the land is overrun by Wraithborn-once-humans mutated into relentless, armored behemoths that feed on the energy of the living. The city's elite defenders, known as the Stormguard, wear specialized gauntlets that allow them to channel the energy of the storm itself, generating electrical blades and explosive force to combat the Wraithborn. Their training is brutal, as only those who can withstand the gauntlet's power without being consumed by it survive. When a young Stormguard recruit uncovers an ancient map hinting at a second, hidden city beyond the storm, everything they thought they knew about their world is thrown into question. Are they truly the last survivors? Or has the Spire's ruling council been keeping a terrible secret for generations?

The Elementals by silversnowleopard

My name is Tide. I'd love to say hi and all, but if I tell you my location two very bad things could happen. First, someone who isn't really on my list of favorite people might find the information. Then, they would hunt us down and try to use our powers to take over the world and other maniacal things. Yeah, not so fun. However, I'd like it if people knew how things really happened. You may see things on the news, and they may sound bad, but trust me, this is the real story. Because I'm an Elemental. And somebody needs to set the record straight.* [Action #101] [Fantasy #2] :: cover credit goes to the lovely ATXNNA :: *heyo so this book is pretty old, some (a lot of) spelling mistakes, some (a lot of) plot holes, but if you're looking for some fast paced action and some sarcasm and some cliche romance you should honestly just go to the second book but yeah, this has got that, just with, you know, the glaring faults in the story line. Just a warning.

The Umbra by Honeybloom2

..... Umbra The kingdom of Eldoria thrives in the light, ruling over a world that fears the darkness beyond its borders. For centuries, its rulers have waged war against the Outlanders, a people said to be cursed, exiled to the Umbra a realm of living shadows and forbidden magic. No one who enters the Umbra ever returns... until now. Princess Elara, heir to Eldoria, has always believed the Outlanders to be nothing more than savage enemies. But when an uneasy alliance sends her on a diplomatic mission to the war-bound kingdom of Varadon, she is ambushed and taken captive by none other than the Outlanders themselves. Trapped in the shifting darkness of the Umbra, she discovers a haunting truth: the Outlanders are not the monsters she was taught to fear, and their enigmatic leader, Ronan, wields a power that defies all reason. Ronan, the last of the Shadowborn kings, is sworn to protect his people from Eldoria's relentless crusade. He sees Elara as a pawn-a means to force the kingdom of light into peace. But the more time they spend together, the more he realizes she is not just a princess of the light-she is a woman with fire in her heart and a power she has yet to understand. As war looms and a prophecy stirs, Elara and Ronan must choose between the duty that binds them and the forbidden desire that could shatter kingdoms. But the Umbra is stirring, and its whispers speak of a fate neither of them can escape.

Weaver's Curse by EClaireH

Indeara Vef can't remember anything. Quite literally. Everything before she woke up in the middle of nowhere is a blank slate. Perhaps the Weavers will provide a clue about her foggy past. Kaedwyn Telare-ess is on the run and has been since her banishment from her homeland when she was young. She doesn't know who she can trust, or even who is pursuing her, or why. Toby Reganne refuses to accept the path of arranged marriage that his family has picked for him. That snobby noblewoman can go jump in a lake. He'll find the life of adventure he's always wanted. Sedine Malachite lives in hiding, waiting for the day when the rest of the world finally declares her dead, and she can move freely in her home country again. Isaan is cursed. It wasn't hard to figure out. Not everyone wakes up some days only remembering fragments about themselves. The problem is, he can't even remember who might have cursed him. Two parties set out to find the mysterious Weavers; one led by a distant memory from what can only be another lifetime, the other led by a mysterious voice speaking in their leader's head.
