Synopsis A Pathway Short Adventure Collection by : Kristy McCaffrey

After reading the novel DEEP BLUE, don’t miss three exciting short stories featuring shark researcher Dr. Grace Mann and her boyfriend, underwater filmmaker Alec Galloway. DEEP BLUE AUSTRALIA When Grace accompanies Alec to Western Australia for a commercial shoot with great whites, she envisions relaxing days in the sun and smoldering nights between the sheets. But as Alec’s mood becomes increasingly distant, Grace worries the chemistry they shared—so effortless in the beginning—was starting to fizzle. Is his reticence related to her, or something else? And can she find a way to help him get the footage he needs before his behavior places his life in danger? DEEP BLUE REUNION ISLAND Grace joins Alec on a trip to the French island of Réunion. Alec and his team—Dan “Double D” Donovan and Stephie Kim—are documenting the capture and relocation of mature bull sharks from the western coastline. For over ten years, shark attacks have terrorized the people of Réunion, essentially ruining the diving and surfing industry. The relocation program is a last-ditch effort to bring a peaceful coexistence between humans and sharks, but Grace’s resolve is tested as she enters the water with these tenacious predators. Bull sharks didn’t earn their name because they were polite. DEEP BLUE COCOS ISLAND Grace is invited to participate in a documentary alongside several distinguished female marine scientists, and Alec, Double D, and Stephie come along to film them in the waters off Cocos Island near Costa Rica. Grace is still dealing with recent criticism of the film Alec made of her last year diving with great white sharks, and in the company of such accomplished women, she struggles to keep her insecurities at bay. When differing viewpoints lead to friction, Grace must learn to stand up for herself, but a bright spot emerges when Alec makes a surprise decision about their relationship. Each Pathway novel can be read as a stand-alone, but don’t miss the other books.

Synopsis The Ruined Clouds by : Jason Keeley

In the Dead Suns Adventure Path, the players take on the roles of members of the Starfinder Society, a loose association of scholars and adventurers who travel the galaxy uncovering the secrets of the past. When a fragment of an ancient alien superweapon surfaces in the depths of hyperspace, its discovery sets off a race to find the extraterrestrial doomsday device. Hopping from planet to planet in both the civilized Pact Worlds and beyond, the heroes must contend with both the undead Corpse Fleet and the nihilistic Cult of the Devourer, each of which seeks to acquire the alien artifact for its own purposes. Can the heroes find and destroy the superweapon before their enemies seize control of it, or will the Pact Worlds' sun go dark and cold, a harbinger of dead suns across the galaxy?

Synopsis Rise of the Drow by : Jonathan G. Nelson

The Underworld is boiling from the flames of war - Matron Maelora of House Gullion has taken control over the drow city of Holoth via a coup d'état - allying herself with the alien Vidre and siphoning power from an artifact granted by these enigmatic, crystalline schemers, she indeed triumphed and funneled the souls of her captives through the artifact to gain immense power. Unbeknownst to her, half of the souls have been funneled to the greedy clutches of the alien Vidre and sacrifices have become harder and harder to come by. Not one to be dictated what to do, the matron managed to sever the binding ties and arcane entwinements of the pact between her and the Vidre via the help of Naraneus the Spider Goddess for the promise of a conquest of the worlds above - the goddess has spoken and so it shall be done. The Vidre, meanwhile, prepare for war - their thirst for souls must be slaked. Rise of the Drow is a Pathfinder Roleplaying Game compatible adventure for 4-6 PCs of Levels 6-18. This book is hardbound, over 550 pages and is presented in full color on premium paper.
