THE CUP OF DEATH
Mortals, elves, magicians, and dragons represent both the world's future and its evil past. Who of them, in this battle of life and death, will ultimately triumph?
Book One of the Chronicles of the Dragons of the Magi begins millennia after the Great War, after those who had been placed in stasis are awakened. Through the labor of the First Seer and the Five Great Elemental Dragons, a simpler way of life has been created. The technology that led to worldwide destruction has been replaced by magic, while the old knowledge remains within the lost Shelter Cities.
Into this world of the ten island continents, a division between those who follow the path of life and those who follow death reemerges. Into this troubling time is born a young Magi, blessed with powers beyond his eighteen years. As an apprentice necromancer, he submits to training and tests, and quickly advances through the Guild's many degrees. But even as his powers grow, who knows if the young man's magic will prove great enough to defeat the Evil Alliance.

Enter an immensely powerful and intelligent alien shuttle with two young friends and find yourself transported to a realm of wonder and amazement that may challenge nearly everything you have been led to believe.

Follow Nick and Angie from Boulder, Colorado as they explore what they believe to be an undiscovered cave but instead find great danger, from which they can escape only by taking a pathway to the stars. The way leads the two young adventurers, and Nick's little dog "Doc," to a fateful rendezvous with a huge Pleiadian Mother Ship, aboard which they experience wonders beyond anything they could have imagined, yet also the depths of terror and fear.

Why? To what end? Where will it all lead? Who is behind it, and what do they want? Unravel the mystery and discover the answers to these questions and a lot more, that up until now, most humans have been afraid to ask. -- And perhaps still not quite ready to face.

Is it fiction, or reality? Is it too much light? Is it too much truth to take in all at once? At times during the journey, it certainly seems so. Discover what Earth's leading quantum physicists already know about our shared inner reality, and how it relates to the outer universe, in some of the newest and hardest-hitting Sci-Fi around.

And perhaps, as you embark on your own journey of self-discovery, learn how your own imagination can take you to places far more desirable than the "reality" you have been programmed to accept. If you are ready.

But keep in mind, it's just a story. It's only science fiction.

This sequel to The Pioneer is perfect for fans of the Illuminae Series and Skyward!

Earth is uninhabitable. Tau is our home now.

With that terrifying message, Jo and her family learned the truth: They are trapped forever on Tau Ceti e.

But the planet’s current occupants—the Sorrow—are not interested in sharing. The fragile peace Jo negotiated abruptly shatters, and soon a bloody battle is raging between the Sorrow and the Pioneers. As tensions rise, the survival of everyone Jo cares for seems less likely by the second.

When a betrayal that shocks Jo to her core threatens to wipe out both Sorrow and human life, Jo must find the strength to speak up once more—and bridge the gaps between all the warring factions—or lose forever the only home left to her.
