Shy, grieving, 11-year-old Joshua discovers a glassy-black, oval stone in a rock pool. Engraved on one face is a human eye, and Joshua senses the eye staring at him, so he decides to keep it. Later, he discovers there is much more to the mysterious artefact than meets the eye. Soon after, an alien confronts him, saying he has searched for the eye-stone (Ocellus) for trillions of years. He reveals that Ocellus, together with twelve other similar stones, is the source of all energy, matter and life, but trillions of years ago, evil creatures stole the thirteen stones and hid them across all the universes. Joshua naturally finds the alien's story too fantastic, so to prove his story, and promising no harm will come to him, the alien takes Joshua and his step-sister, Alessa, along with the stone, to his own universe where he becomes close friends with another alien his age. Together, they undertake a series of ever-more hazardous missions to help retrieve the missing stones. After one mission goes awry, the evil creatures attack and Joshua finds himself trapped in the other universe, where he discovers some information about Ocellus that calls into question everything the alien has told him. Can Joshua establish the truth about the thirteen stones? Can he help defeat the evil creatures, and bring peace to the universes? And can he ever find his way back to Earth? Immense in scope and deep in emotion, the story of Ocellus will live in the memory.

A captivating and swashbuckling romantasy for fans of DAUGHTER OF THE PIRATE KING and TO KILL A KINGDOM.

Ximena Reale is certain of one thing: the only good pirate is a dead one.

Ximena has spent her life training to become one of the black-cloaked cazadores, seafaring hunters who capture the pirates pillaging the Luzan Empire. But although Ximena is the top candidate at la academia, that will not be enough for a daughter of the notorious Reales - pirate captains who were executed for their crimes against the Empire.

So when Gasparilla, the most infamous pirate in Luza's history, attacks the capital, Ximena offers to catch him in exchange for being named a cazadora. The Empire accepts, on one condition: she must compete for her cloak against Dante de León, the pompous and infuriating son of the High Minister.

Knowing this is her chance to prove herself once and for all, Ximena must set out on a dangerous quest across the archipelago to hunt Gasparilla. But no matter how far she sails, her family's pirate legacy continues to haunt her, and she soon has to question the very laws she's always fought to uphold . . .
