Brother and sister team Midnight and Aurora Pendragon have a successful airship business taking clients on trips to be photographed with their pet pterodactyl. The last thing they expect is to have one such trip hijacked by the dashing adventurer Voltaire Crevin and his right-hand man Trevilian Hawke. While his sister and Voltaire repeatedly lock horns, Midnight finds himself increasingly drawn to Trevilian. Finally, Voltaire explains they are trying to prevent a weapon of mass destruction from falling into the hands of a ruthless, secret organization, the S.O.R. With Midnight’s help, they take the airship down into an extinct volcano to find that not only does Atlantis still exist, but the weapon is in the hands of the few remaining Atlanteans. But if Voltaire had believed the S.O.R. were ruthless, it's nothing compared to that of the Atlanteans who seek to return to the surface and rule the world using their ultimate weapon: The Leviathan. Midnight’s feelings for Trevilian deepen as they seek a way to stop the Atlanteans and escape from Atlantis. Danger comes in many ways and takes many forms, each more deadly than the last. Can Midnight and Trevilian survive long enough to know whether love never dies?

Love Never Dies

“He’s being modest as usual.” Tresilian glanced up from his vigil over Midnight. He speaks several languages, Captain Pendragon.”


“Please, call me Aurora. I hardly qualify for the title of captain since my vessel is back there.”


“By all the gods.” Voltaire rose to his feet. “Will you look at that?” He sat down with a thud, staring overhead and Aurora followed his gaze and gasped.


The rock surrounding them vanished, and they were now in a tunnel with transparent walls like glass, as the barge travelled along a narrow strait.


“Are we encased in glass?” Aurora asked, staring at the ocean all around them, and the multitude of colourful sea life that swam past as if this was an everyday occurrence.


“I don’t know.” Voltaire stared around with an expression of amazement, quickly replaced by curiosity. “If it is glass, it must be extraordinarily strong to withstand the pressures and yet we can see through clearly. Interesting.”
