The Goddess Project
Bryan Wigmore
Ancient terror, modern error, future era. Otter shook himself. Mean much to you? Two years after being washed up on a remote beach, freedivers Orc and Cass still have no idea who they are or where they came from. Worst of all, they feel like lovers but look like brother and sister, and must repress their instincts for fear of committing a terrible mistake. Now at last theyve tracked down a psychic artefact powerful enough to restore their memories. But others also seek its forbidden magic. To reach it, deep within a sunken ruin, they must flirt with a ruthless occult conspiracy, one intent on summoning an ancient goddess to destroy the dreadnoughts of the Empyreal fleet. The depths of the sea, of the past, of the worlds collective mind: down there are truths, but also madness and despair. And a power that will plunge the world back to a new dark age, if it cant be stopped.
