"The man becomes the god.
The prophecy has been echoing in Gal's mind for the last five years, whispering its potential, luring him with promises. But when Vorago, the ancient god who created Atlantis, returns to the island, everything Gal thought he knew about his destiny unravels.
With a charm as ancient as the seas and an agenda hidden beneath layers of false friendship, Vorago whispers promises of greater power, tempting Gal to push the limits of the trident's magic. As Gal's arrogance grows, so does his distance from the people he loves most—his wife Una, his mentor Ford, and even his own family.
The deeper Gal sinks into Vorago's web of manipulation, the more the ocean's true dangers are revealed. With gods like Tempest and Cascadia waiting in the wings, alliances shift and ancient powers awaken. When Gal begins to lose control of the very power he once mastered, he must ask himself: Has he been fighting for Atlantis, or only for himself? As old gods rise and new alliances form, Gal must make an impossible choice—one that could destroy everything he's fought for.
Will Gal wield the trident to save his island . . . or will its power consume him?
If you're a fan of Throne of Glass and To Kill a Kingdom, you won't want to miss Vorago Returns—The epic conclusion to the Mermaid Chronicles—by the captivating bestselling author, Marisa Noelle."
"The Last of Us meets The Mandalorian in this post-apocalyptic speculative young adult novel about a teenage bounty hunter whose mission to catch the target of a lifetime begins to unravel everything he thought he knew about his world.
Over a century after a series of cataclysmic disasters wiped out most life on Earth, survival in the Expanse is a daily battle. No one knows that better than eighteen-year-old Diesel, who lost his family years ago and now earns his keep as a dust chaser—tracking down the people no one else can find, even when they’d rather stay hidden.
But when Diesel’s assigned a mysterious and dangerous new target that comes with the largest bounty he’s ever seen, he worries that this time he may be in over his head. Accompanied by his hulking dog, Gloom, Diesel sets out across the climate-ravaged Stormlands, determined to claim the bounty before anyone else can. But nothing about this job is business as usual: leads are few, competition is fierce, and every clue that he uncovers only raises more questions.
Worse, the monstrous Dreads that roam the Expanse are increasing in number, making each day more dangerous than the last. Pursued by old rivals and unsettled by whispers of secret organizations that challenge his understanding of the world, Diesel will have to decide which he’d rather chase: his mark or the truth."

Here, the stakes are higher than the tallest turrets, and every move counts. Burr must work with his sisters and friends - and rely on the unexpected help of a strange and intriguing heiress - to unravel the secrets of the Magpie Maiden and the origins of the Great Game before he becomes just another casualty of the Players' deadly contest."

"Persephone Green doesn't have a heartbeat. In a country where the dead has eerily lurked among the living for nearly two decades, even she knows its absence is not normal.
In place of her heart, something inhuman stirs, an ancient ocean she discovers twinned in the chest of Sebastian, the charmingly bizarre new student. When they're together, they attract ghosts like a beacon, and when they kiss, white flowers bloom in the dead, autumn ground.
To exhume the truth, Persephone and Bas travel across the Midwest to the deserted facility where it all began. Pursued across state lines by writhing swarms of ghosts, militant government agents, and-maybe worst of all-her mother, they unspool a tangled web of conspiracies. At its center: a divine and devastating truth.
Forced to choose between an imperfect life that's wholly hers or an otherworldly responsibility older than time, the echoes of Persephone's decision will alter the fates of all souls-living and dead-forever."
