Marvin Amazon Livres

"We never choose our destiny. It chooses us." It's been five thousand years since the gods withdrew from the galaxy, leaving the men of each planet to rule themselves. For millennia, the worlds lived in relative harmony. But once again the order has been shaken. On Corin, a prince's courageous quest has released a ruthless demi-god that can bring the disgraced planet back to its former glory-or destroy it. On Earth, a young man is ripped across a universe he didn't know existed and inextricably tied to an ancient conflict that he can't begin to understand. And all the while, the immortal Siroco pursues his own mysterious ends. Who are the true heroes? Who is the Chosen One? Battles rage and families crumble in this second installment of Marvin Amazon's mythic fantasy series, where once again the lines of right and wrong blur around the individual experience, and even the best of intentions cannot control a galaxy on the brink of destruction.

Everyone has a secret...and some secrets are worth killing for. Tobias Mead is rich, handsome, and charming-a popular combination with the ladies in New York City's high-end clubs. But the night he meets Penelope, everyone else ceases to exist. Their attraction is immediate and intense. When Penelope's body is discovered in a nearby park, Tobias is devastated-and then terrified. The police accuse him of murder, and his face is plastered on every news outlet in the city. If that's not bad enough, it turns out that Penelope was romantically involved with Antonio Cabrera, the volatile heir of a dangerous Central American drug cartel. Now the family wants revenge, as well as something valuable that Penelope may have left with an unsuspecting Tobias. Everyone shoots to kill, and Tobias is caught in the crossfire as New York City explodes into terrifying violence. The only person he can trust is Annabel, a woman as lethal as she is beautiful. But with this many enemies, even her impressive firepower may not be enough. As the bodies pile up, Tobias has just one card left up his sleeve. Although he's sworn he would never use it, he might not have a choice.

What happened to the children? The year is 2043, and humans have been mysteriously unable to reproduce for almost thirty years. To prevent panic and keep the population from dwindling to nothing, global authorities offer a Lotto, where a few winners each week can enter a time portal and bring back adopted children from the future. They're never allowed to talk about what they saw. The exception to this system is Los Angeles resident and reluctant celebrity Rachel Harris, the only woman of her generation to naturally give birth. Years of medical tests and treatments have been unable to explain or replicate her pregnancy, and the whole world grieved when Rachel's daughter died in a tragic accident. When Rachel wins the Lotto, she's shocked, and then elated. She can be a mother again. But the baby she meets in 2108 carries a secret that will shatter Rachel's reality and endanger everyone close to her. Now Rachel must race across time to save her life and her child, even as she discovers that nothing-and no one-are what they seem.
