Nether: A Tripartite Souls Novel
Nether is a dark myth born from the ruins of forgotten realms. The veil between worlds is thinning, and an old hunger waits just beyond the edge.
Amari is dead, but not gone. Her soul has been broken and scattered, lost to a war she can no longer remember. Trapped in Nether, a place stitched from sorrow and shadow, she searches for what was taken. For a name. For a purpose. For the pieces of herself.
Two men walk beside her. Tariq, cursed heir of a god, wears a crown of bone and blood. Koa, forged by violence and torn lineage, carries a dying kingdom on his back. Together, they follow whispers through haunted forests and sail seas stirred by the remnants of the damned.
The gods are watching. The realms are shifting. And the past is no longer content to stay buried.
Hunted by demons, twisted by prophecy, and haunted by dreams that do not belong to her, Amari must decide what she truly is. A salvation carved from ruin. Or the spark that ends it all.
In Nether, nothing is sacred. Not memory. Not love. Not even death.

Megan J. Earp
1 book1 followerMegan J. Earp is an author and licensed mental health counselor whose stories weave dark fantasy with raw human emotion.

Drawing on her background in counseling, Megan crafts characters who are deeply human—resilient, wounded, and searching for connection. She blends myth and memory with lyrical, immersive prose, creating worlds that feel both otherworldly and achingly real.
When she’s not writing, Megan can often be found mountain biking Arizona’s trails, paddle boarding with her family, or wrangling the joyful chaos of raising four children with her husband. She believes the best stories are the ones that echo long after the final page is turned.

Great fantasy novel by this debut author!
This novel swept me away with its seamless blend of romantasy and family drama. The author builds realms that feel both richly magical and deeply human, where the boundaries between mirror those between families, loyalties, and love itself.
What I loved most was how the story balanced sweeping romance with the messiness of family dynamics—inheritance, rivalry, sacrifice, and a possible reconciliation all pulsed beneath the fantasy.
By the end, I wasn’t just invested in the love story—I was invested in the fate of all the realms. It’s one of those books that lingers, because it asks not only what we’ll risk for love, but also what we’ll risk for the people and places we call home.
Give this new author a chance - I don’t think you’ll regret it!
