The Secret Library

When a surly pirate and a treasure-hunting nun fall into a cursed jungle with the Order captain tasked with their capture—what else could possibly go wrong?

Seraphina Davalos left her seminary and inserted herself into Captain Mari Adlam’s pirate crew to gain passage to a mysterious isle said to hide a secret library. In this library is the knowledge her twin sister—the one chosen by the gods to wield Macario’s Scepter—needs to defeat the awakening monsters and stop the end of the world.

No big deal, right? Unfortunately, Captain Luis Fozo is much less concerned with taboo myths and impending doom. He’s determined to exact revenge on the pirates responsible for his brother’s death. 

His plan goes sideways, however, when he falls through an ancient portal and is forced to work together with Seraphina and Mari to survive sirens, harpies, diabolical traps, and whatever else the cursed jungle conjures on their path to the library—and escape. 

Their alliance is only temporary, though. He doesn’t believe their conspiracy theories about the world ending in the slightest. And he certainly, most definitely—without question—is not falling for a brave, naive nun who’s as intelligent as she is beautiful. 

It’s only a few days, a few monsters, and a few curses. How bad could it be? 

A funny, page-turning adventure great for fans of Indiana Jones with a dash of Pirates of The Caribbean

Characters

Seraphina has reluctantly joined Mari Adlam’s pirate crew, trading her veils for sails. That’s what it will take to find the Secret Library, and the book her sister needs to save the world. Shouldn’t be that hard, right?

Coming to this library was supposed to be like all the other times she stepped into Ancient Order locations. A book she could pick up that would cause another to appear out of the floor. The Prayer Circle in Lucia, where the order of the serpent’s attack was painted on the stones. Or she’d touch a picture and a scroll that would unlock magic would appear. She made her way to the table, resting her head in her hands. 

This was not how it was supposed to go at all.

Navigator turned pirate captain Mari Adlam is not one to mince words or waste a dagger on a person who didn’t deserve it. The pirate life saved her, the seas hardened her spirit, and she’s exactly what the world needs to save itself from dark forces. Just don’t tell her that, though.

Mari turned over the table in the middle of the room, the dusty scrolls on top of it tumbling to the floor. Three rooms. Three bloody rooms she’d gone through so far and not a speck of gold. Not a sliver of a jewel. Not even a fancy compass to replace the one she’d stolen from Fozo. She’d found nothing that would justify everything she’d put up with since she fell into this miserable place.

Baz Blackwater was an idiot. He should’ve never made her captain.

Ever since the death of this Order Navel captain’s beloved brother on the shores of Bluegate, he has had one mission – find the pirates who killed them and bring them to justice. Now he has them in his custody. What he wasn’t counting on was those pirates challenging every long-held belief he’s had.

He rose to his feet, sheathing his sword as he strode to the staircase. For now, he would entertain the notion that this library held answers to unworldly questions—like a serpent and a girl wielding magic. As he walked up those dusty steps, he would imagine that in one of those very rooms, he would find all the answers to the questions causing him grief.

Or discover something new about the world he thought he knew so well.

He would believe, just for now, that this was the magical place Seraphina believed it to be.
