NXU: The Seeker

NXU: The Seeker is the explosive first book in the Nexus Universe (NXU) saga — a young adult blend of cryptid adventure, myth, and superhero fantasy. Zane Sutherland was born into a family of explorers sworn to protect the hidden creatures of the world. Armed with a mysterious glowing compass, Zane wants nothing more than to prove himself worthy of the legacy he’s inherited. But when a mission in the frozen wastes uncovers an ancient truth, Zane learns that the greatest cryptid of all… is himself. As villains, mercenaries, and even his own dark reflection rise against him, Zane must confront the terrible legacy of Kur — the power to command cryptid armies. Torn between science and myth, family and destiny, Zane discovers that being a hero doesn’t mean controlling monsters… it means fighting the one inside. Fast-paced, cinematic, and packed with emotional twists, NXU: The Seeker launches readers into a world of hidden beasts, ancient relics, and a boy who must decide if he’s humanity’s protector — or its greatest threat.
