In EUROPA: Engagement, Europa fulfilled her destiny and saved her people by bringing them back home to Europa. But she was not prepared for the price of her fulfillment - the loss of her father. Unable to accept his loss, Europa fails into a deep state of anger, despair and grief. She turns against Kiijon, blaming him for taking her away from her father. Her actions break her connection to the Orbs and the bond of the Quanundocii begins to disintegrate. While Europa hides away in her room, Jeanip and Kiijon endeavor to keep the monarch together. But the home land they have returned to is not the one that was left six thousand years earlier. Jupiter's implosion caused severe damage, destroying the Oonock's world. Death and disease plague those that remained behind for several thousand years. Many died. Vegetation and wildlife were destroyed creating vast wastelands. The Oonocks suffered greatly and are not eager to embrace the clan that left them behind. Some clan leaders feel a new clan should be named to rule as the supreme monarchs and advocate for a new king and queen. Europa's lack of appearance and leadership strengthens their belief she is not fit to rule and others start to agree. As the clan leaders argue amongst themselves, a new advisory arises determined to turn the people themselves against the new monarchs. With the help of an ancient enemy, this new threat will take up JeffRa's vow of revenge and dedicate himself to ending the Oonock race once and for all.Europa: The New Monarchs tells Europa's story as she tries to become the queen she was meant to be. If she fails, not only with her brother die but the very race she and her farther fought to save will perish and JeffRa will win at last.
About the Author: Basically, PR Garcia is a crazy not-too-gray-haired old lady who decided at the age of 61 to write a book. Hoping to write one, she astonishingly wrote the six book Europa Series in two years. And it's damn good!!! Now for a more traditional overview: P. R. Garcia was born during the winter of 1951 in Monroe County, Michigan, the youngest of three children. She attended Western Michigan University where she majored in zoology. While living in Michigan she became an award winning basket weaver, carrying on the tradition of her maternal grandmother, Margaret Dark Feather. In 2008 she moved to southern California and became a volunteer at the Birch Aquarium of Scripps Institution of Oceanography and a guide on the Gray whale touring boats. The following year she joined the Whalers, a dedicated group of volunteers from the San Diego Natural History Museum of San Diego, California whose love of the Pacific cetaceans and other marine life off the shores of California matched her own. As a guide on the Whale watching boats for both the Aquarium and the Natural History Museum, she introduced people from around the world to the wonders of the world of the Pacific cetaceans. Combining her knowledge of these ocean giant, her love of science fiction and astronomers' exciting belief that on Jupiter's ice moon, Europa, there exists a living ocean containing life, she has created a new trilogy of an alien race from Europa, a race that has lived in our deep oceans for thousands of years. Using legends and known ancient landmarks from Earth's past, she has woven a story of intrigue, mystery, magic and adventure. The Europa trilogy is a story of survival, adventure and true love. The original trilogy: EUROPA: Awakenings EUROPA: Quanundocii EUROPA: Engagement
