Eos

By Vera Nazarian
Eos by Vera Nazarian digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A mysterious vigilante meets Scheherazade in high-tech Ancient Atlantis, set against the backdrop of an impending global apocalypse.

 

On the last day of Atlantis,

When it sank beneath the waters,

Sons and Daughters of Atlantis

Sailed their ships toward the stars.

 

Earth, 10,504 B.C.E.

 

A deadly asteroid sent by alien gods is about to strike Ancient Atlantis.

 

In the high-tech Imperial capital, Poseidon, the decadent ruling elites rush to build ark-ships to flee to the stars, leaving the impoverished masses to perish when the Sky Rock hits—with one exception. The Imperial Kassiopei Dynasty and the noble Great Houses hold Service Competitions to pick those best qualified to serve them.

 

Street-smart sixteen-year-old Semmi, fired from her darkness shift job at an industrial warehouse, witnesses a mysterious vigilante known as the Man in the Niktos Cloak and accidentally discovers his impossible secret identity.

 

Powerful nobleman by day—deadly vigilante by night—and the anonymous star of the most popular and hottest adult drama on Atlantean video, Benaten Bisfuri is an irresistible man of many contradictions.

 

To keep his secrets, and keep her quiet, Benaten must hire Semmi to work for him. Desperate for employment, and frightened for her family, she must accept the job. Soon, she's embroiled in Imperial Court politics and a complex plot to save the people who will be left behind—all while competing in the brutal Service Competitions to earn a coveted spot on an ark-ship. She also finds her fate entwined with the uncanny Imperial Princess Arlenari who just might hold the key to everyone's salvation.

 

Before the Sky Rock strikes Earth—bringing about the Great Flood, reprising an Ice Age, and changing the face of the planet forever—Semmi must discover her own abilities to win a place for herself and her loved ones.

 

A place on the Ark.

 

EOS is book one of the series Dawn of the Atlantis Grail.

 

Dawn of the Atlantis Grail is the much-anticipated prequel series to The Atlantis Grail series, and the entire series universe has been optioned for film.

Eos Reviews

4.0
“The world building in this book was intense! The FMC was likable and believable. The storyline was easy to follow but also kept my attention. I enjoyed the other characters and enjoyed the character development. The book ends in a cliff hanger of sorts. I'm looking forward to the next one to see what happens!”
“I’ve not read the original series of the Atlantis Grail, but I was able to grasp this world well without having read it. Eos is the first book in a prequel series to the Atlantis Grail I enjoyed the concept of this story, Semmi is our protagonist. She lives in Atlantis during the time the citizens are learning that their world will soon be ending. Vera Nazarian does a great job at depicting the chaos, fear, and the wide variety of other emotions a society would have upon learning their world is about to be forever changed—and that many will perish. Semmi tries to find work to keep her family afloat until the Sky Rock comes to sink their city. She finds work with a very rich family, and this helps her gain access to a series of Competitions for skilled workers to try and save themselves from their imminent doom by serving the rich in spaceships as they escape. I really enjoyed the concept of this story, however I found some parts to be incredibly slow and/or more detailed than necessary. I did appreciate the amount of world building the author puts into this novel. Thank you to NetGalley for a review copy! All thoughts and opinions are my own.”
“grateful to NetGalley and the publisher for granting me the e-ARC of this book. this was such an amazing read, i can’t quite find the words to express my feelings about it. incredible world building, fleshed-out characters and a fun but high stakes plot. i’m eager to read the original series and can’t wait for book two of this one!”
