They came for the water. He came for them. They were too late. The White Sapphire Crystal — silent guardian of a precious water planet for almost a million years — sent out the signal before they could reach her. The universal alarm. The one a Lord of Water is never supposed to need. Somewhere out there, the Marshal heard it. Now the Rigs have arrived. Dark machines on the other side of the globe, operated by beings too enslaved to question their orders, and commanded by Slab, the most ruthless extractor the black universe has ever sent. Their mission is as old as greed itself: find water, drain every last drop, and leave a dead rock spinning in the dark. The global evaporation has already begun. The Lord of Water has half a year to cross the ocean and stop them, and to finish what he started before the Marshal arrives and decides the matter for him. With Gary at the helm of Hi-Sun, Mila at his side, Max and Pei scampering across the decks, and an army of dorsals rising beneath the keel, the fight for a precious water planet is on. Lord of Water: Book II continues the powerful trilogy — a timeless quest where spirituality and adventure collide.
