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

“As could I, my love. But not here. We need to find a way to escape. There mustbe a way. Let’s see what Voltaire has to say after breakfast.”


Breakfast was limited to Midnight and his friends, plus Lalia, who made no mention of the whereabouts of Tullia, Maximus, or any of the other Atlantean courtiers. Nor of Ferdinand and his henchman.


At the conclusion of the meal, Lalia stood up.


“You have been granted the honour of seeing our library. The Nisut-bity thought you may wish to spend some time there.”


“More like they want to know where we are and that we’re staying out of trouble.” Tresilian leaned close to Midnight to whisper in his ear and Midnight nodded.


“Yes, of course, Lalia.” Voltaire stood. “We’d be delighted.”


“Excellent.” As Lalia started toward the door, another Atlantean came in and Lalia indicated her with a sweeping gesture. “This is Hunra-Tentamun. She will accompany us. She knows the library better than any other of us.”
