Terror in the Deep! Mirian Raas comes from a long line of salvagers-adventurers who use magic to dive for sunken ships off the coast of tropical Sargava. With her father dead and her family in debt, Mirian has no choice but to take over his last job: a dangerous expedition into deep jungle pools, helping a tribe of lizardfolk reclaim the lost treasures of their people. Yet this isn't any ordinary dive, as the same colonial government that looks down on Mirian for her half-native heritage has an interest in the treasure, and the survival of the entire nation may depend on the outcome. From critically acclaimed author Howard Andrew Jones comes an adventure of sunken cities and jungle exploration, set in the award-winning world of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. The second digital edition maintains the same editorial content as the previous edition, but includes a sample chapter of a new novel, Godsrain-A Pathfinder Novel, and updated back matter.
"It's an entertaining and layered book to say the least, but what sets [Beyond the Pool of Stars] apart from run-of-the-mill fantastical dramas is found in the way Jones is able to bring his story a universal meaning: forcing his readers to examine themselves and their own prejudices in relation to the world at large in this tale of outsiders who finally win one."
Jacob Aiello
"Beyond the Pool of Stars takes place in the award-winning world of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game system. It is a land of magic, myth, monsters, and heroes; Jones makes good use of all those elements to create a fun, action-packed adventure. What makes Beyond the Pool of Stars so good, however, is the characters."
