AN ALL-CONSUMING EVIL Scorned and vengeful, Victoria emerges as the military leader of a powerful, new force in the Cerulean Universe—the M’aremundian Dominance. With an ever-expanding interstellar navy, she aims to destroy the hegemony of the Greater Pod and The Balance that multi-species alliance has labored for eons to perpetuate.
A SAFE HAVEN. A NEW HOPE. Within the timeless and mysterious waters of the Silent Abyss, Zra and the crew of a new Tor Meget encounter Gillie geneticists who give the captain hope of creating a living link to her beloved Nooni. As the oppression and devastation continues on the outside, a vast array of species seeks refuge in the isolation of the Abyss—prompting Kohola and leaders of the crumbling Greater Pod to seize the opportunity and rally the refugees for one last stand against the Dominance.
A DESTINY IN QUESTION Meanwhile, Emissary Reau continues her mission in an alternate universe. She and Cetus had glimpsed shadows of the future —caught whispers of the final battle. Although they never saw or heard the actual victory over the Dominance, Reau knows she must return to the Cerulean Universe with massive military assistance. Still, she has doubts—and plays Cetus’s faint, last words over and over in her something wonderful is going to come of this; something extraordinary is going to happen here.
ON THE BRINK OF CONTINUITY THE FINAL BOOK IN THE SAGA OF THE CERULEAN UNIVERSE
Award-winning author Kip Koelsch got his start writing “books” with crayons in Mrs. Cook’s second grade class in Leonardo, NJ. Koelsch's love of dolphins started early as well--nurtured by The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau, National Geographic Magazine and the family's trips to the beach at Anna Maria Island, Florida.
In all of his writing, Koelsch draws on his "variety of life experiences"--from time as a collegiate rowing coach to a stint as an adjunct professor in Environmental Studies and from adventure racing in Borneo to dragging a dolphin carcass behind his kayak while a marine mammal stranding network volunteer.
An on-again, off-again freelance magazine writer, Koelsch currently blogs about writing, critical thinking, outdoor adventure sports, paddling and his work in progress. He is working hard on the sequel to Wendall's Lullaby while occasionally scribbling random notes for other future fiction ideas.
Koelsch has an undergraduate degree in Journalism and Mass Media from Rutgers University in NJ and a Master’s Degree in Humanities and American Studies from the University of South Florida in Tampa, FL. In the past he has taught policy and culture-oriented Environmental Studies courses at Eckerd College, Ringling College of Art and Design, and the University of South Florida.
Currently, Koelsch resides in Dunedin, FL, with his wife and three cats.
