Dragon of the Deep
From New York Times bestselling author Beth Revis comes the first book in a breathtaking new romantic fantasy duology about a woman exiled by superstition who joins a dragon-hunting voyage only to be caught between a formidable longship captain, a prince destined for the throne, and an ancient power that could change her fate…or destroy a kingdom.
Branded as bad luck and bound to her barren island home by the superstition of skalds and sailors alike, Emelya has no future…until she risks her life to save a storm-tossed longship and boldly challenges formidable―and dangerously compelling―Captain Ragnar to let her prove her worth.
But what begins as a desperate gamble soon becomes the adventure of a lifetime, for the crew is hunting a legendary colossal dragon―a mythic beast said to bear the old gods' blessing. Only Prince Erik, the devastatingly handsome (and charming) son of an ailing king, believes the myths are true…just as he believes Emelya may be the key to helping him unlock their ancient power.
As the longship sails farther north, storms rage, monsters rise from icy depths, and the line between legend and death grows perilously thin…and Emelya finds herself caught between an ancient power meant for kings and the love of two men that could bring ruin to them all.
By the dragon's choosing, Queens will rise and Kingdoms will shatter.

Beth Revis didn’t set out to map the stars—but somewhere between the quiet foothills of North Carolina and the ink-soaked pages of her notebooks, she started building galaxies. Her stories don’t just visit new worlds; they confront the fragile, often volatile, human emotions that echo through them. Whether it’s a spacecraft filled with secrets or a love story wrapped in cosmic stakes, her work leans into that tension—of survival, of connection, of choosing what’s right when the stars don't align.
