The Voyages Of Trueblood Cay eBook

A novel-within-a-novel, written by Venery protagonist Javier Landes under the pen name Gil Rafael, The Voyages of Trueblood Cay is an epic queer nautical fantasy filled with ancient lore, slow-burn romance, and mythical adventure.

Pelippé Trueblood, a nineteen-year-old mariner descended from giant shipbuilders, is chosen for a legendary quest: embark on a dangerous voyage across chartless seas to locate the mythical Tree of Life.

Joining his crew is Fen il-Kheir-a brooding, dangerous kheiron (a centaur-like shapeshifter) with a dark past he cannot outrun. Unwillingly bound together, Trueblood and Fen must navigate stormy waters, ancient prophecies, and a growing passion that neither anticipated.

Featuring giant shipbuilders, flying horses, and rich mythical worldbuilding, this standalone fantasy can be enjoyed as a companion to the Venery series or as an independent adventure.
