House of the Celestials: The Eclipsed Vault

Daniel_Orions
Half a half-century after the events of the Crown of Stars, Terra stands transformed. On Terra, the shattering of the Grey— the mystical veil that once hid magic from mundane eyes—has fused two realities into one. Cities now share their skylines with floating citadels, arcane ley‑lines hum beneath once‑quiet streets, and ordinary Terrans awaken to powers they never dreamed possible. In the vacuum left by the fallen regimes, the mage‑conclave Octagram and the chivalric order Golden Dawn broker a fragile new world order alongside the rulers of the former Hidden World. Amid the upheaval, Samantha Sinclair—reborn as Asha’Yee, Keeper of the Divine Flame—guides the newly awakened through their first sparks of power. Together with Emily Legens and Rex Pendragon, she turns her focus to a deeper enigma: the vanishing of the legendary AurenIdril Empire, whose secrets may hold the key to stabilizing (or toppling) the newborn age. Every clue draws them closer to the mythic Eclipsed Vault, a place whispered to house the empire’s final legacy—and the reason the gods themselves fear Terra’s rise. Far from home, Leonard Haravok—now a full demigod—has returned to the Divine Federation and vanished from public sight. Rumors hint at celestial trials, forbidden bargains, and a destiny that could either save Terra or condemn it. As cosmic forces converge on the planet, Leon and Sam’s intertwined fates edge toward an inevitable collision—one that will test old loyalties, spark new alliances, and decide whether the light of the new era will blaze or be snuffed out before it can truly dawn. In a world where the veil is gone and the gods are watching, the greatest secrets lie in the shadows of the Eclipsed Vault—and unlocking them may cost more than anyone is willing to pay.

Scions of the Cruel King

In Scions of the Cruel King, the Targaryen family drama is in full swing. After Aegon’s death, Aenys took the throne, but things quickly went south. Aenys wasn’t exactly a strong leader, and it didn’t take long before the Faith rose up against him. That’s when Maegor stepped in—furious and out for blood after the murder of Eleana. He crushed the rebellion with an iron fist. When Aenys died under some pretty shady circumstances, Maegor took over as king. But even though he was ruthless, the Faith remained a thorn in his side right up until his own brutal end in 48 A.L. Now, the story kicks off in 56 A.L., and the Targaryens are still in hot water. Jaehaerys, Aenys’s son, is holding down the fort as regent for his young cousin Vaegyl, Maegor’s son. The realm is a mess, full of uprisings and political scheming. Jaehaerys and his allies, like Gerold Westerling, are doing their best to keep the peace, but they don’t realize that Westerling and Ser Tybolt Lannister have their own plans. They’re secretly plotting to put Westerling’s grandson, Aegon, on the throne. As Vaegyl gets closer to coming of age, things start heating up. Old loyalties are questioned, hidden secrets come to light, and the shadow of Maegor’s brutal reign still hangs over everything. The fight for the Iron Throne is just beginning, and it’s going to get messy. If you’re into stories packed with power struggles, betrayals, and the Targaryens fighting for control of the Seven Kingdoms, Scions of the Cruel King is right up your alley.
