December, 2014: In the forbidding waters off Antarctica, Captain Hammarstedt of the Bob Barker sets off on a voyage unlike any seen before. Across ten thousand miles of hazardous seas, Hammarstedt’s crew will relentlessly pursue the Thunder – an infamous illegal fishing ship – for what will become the longest chase in maritime history. Wanted by Interpol, the Thunder has for years evaded justice: hunting endangered species and accumulating millions in profits. The authors follow this incredible expedition from the beginning. But even as seasoned journalists, they cannot anticipate what the chase will uncover, as the wake of the Thunder leads them on the trail of criminal kingpins, rampant corruption, modern slavery and an international community content to turn a blind eye. Very soon, catching Thunder becomes not only a chase but a pursuit of the truth itself – and a symbolic race to preserve the well-being of our planet. A Scandinavian bestseller, Catching Thunder is a remarkable true story of courage and perseverance, and a wake-up call to act against the destruction of our environments.

He could become a god. He could just burn to death. Son of a mortal king and the earth Goddess, Gaian has known since he was ten that it was possible for him to Become a god, too. The catch is that he’ll have to die—by burning—first. He’s not quite ready to try that yet, especially since fire is the one thing he’s afraid of. He was raised to be a warrior. His father wants him to be the next king, if only to keep him from thinking about Becoming. Neither feels right. There must another purpose for his more-than-human strength. The Goddess must have had a reason for giving him that gift. When he meets Mariel, Gaian is willing to put all thoughts of being a king, a warrior—or even Becoming a god—aside. Little does he suspect that family may be the one thing worth burning for. Inspired by the legend of Hercules. (Noblebright Fantasy, Hercules, goddess, god, warrior, sword)
