Kingdom of Waves ✓
The sea remembers what kingdoms try to forget. In Kingdom of Waves, that memory rises with salt and steel, haunting a people who once ruled the waters and now live under foreign chains. Ophir, once a floating empire shimmering with opulence and myth, has been broken by Lacon’s conquest. Its survivors cling to scraps of their past, forced to serve in a world that stripped them of power but not of pride.
Amid this fractured legacy move two young thieves. Eban Sadreal steals with calculation, his every risk sharpened by grief. Ginreth Strong steals with fire, her loyalty tempered by secrets she cannot fully share. Each leads a crew willing to gamble everything on whispers of a relic said to contain Ophir’s lost magic. But relics rarely grant salvation without demanding blood, and when rival paths collide, betrayal and desire entwine as tightly as the ropes on a sinking ship.
What sets this duology apart is its blend of heist-driven tension with the sweep of romance and rebellion. The atmosphere is both lush and perilous, a world where golden palaces loom over drowned histories, and every act of theft becomes a defiance against oppression. Themes of identity, survival, and the cost of reclaiming power give the story a weight that lingers long after the adventure pauses for breath.
Kingdom of Waves consists of one book and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
