Death in the Abyss

Death In The Abyss

Aaron Grayman's story continues in Death in the Abyss. His life has moved far from the simple beginnings of Book 1, finding himself married to runaway Priestess Nacetti Passur of the Rödd theocracy and soon to enter into polygamy with his past lover, Shana Annavan, whom his wife is protecting from assassination.

Elder Pieter Lomanov plans to kill them; his animosity goes beyond his ability to control. Has his past protégé Shakti Kappas lured him into a fugue of power or a deathtrap for himself, his present protégé Vaalkáis Kye, and thousands more to become worldwide Emporer? Vaalkáis is torn by his fanaticism and an uncontrollable connection to him, twisting her mind.

Suddenly, Atlanteas faces a disaster able to destroy all its history, knowledge, and governance as thoroughly as the Great Tsunami nearly three millennia before.

Can Aaron, Nasseti, and their fiancé Shana solve the complex story from this past in time to save their nation? Can they somehow save Shana's twin sister, Lana, 400,000,000 kilometers away on an asteroid miner, or is she collateral damage to Lomanov's plans? Unknown to all, can Science Fleet Admiral Lisil Pascal protect the heart of Atlanteas and Ensign Dani Juno, or will they become victims of the mad Elder?

The plot is headed for the cliffhanger edge of a deadly abyss in Book 2 of the Archives of Atlanteas.
