Uncharted Fear: World of Heavenfall (The Dragon’s Fear Book 1) by Riley Rookhouse & Marie McCue

The prison ship Dragon’s Fear is about to get a stowaway more dangerous than the magical prisoners it usually transports…

The prisoner transport ship the Dragon’s Fear has sailed the seas long enough to have encountered nearly every type of danger. Massive storms, prisoner riots, vicious sea creatures, and hundreds of other struggles have all befallen the Conjury sailing vessel in its years of service. Yet Captain Brightfang’s strong hand has always kept the unruly and fractious crew in line as they transport their mystically-empowered prisoners to the magic-suppressing penal colony of Tide Island.

But when Kelby of Gap Mouth Bay, one of the ship’s crew, makes a clandestine deal that brings what seems to be a treacherous sickness on board, the careful balance of the Dragon’s Fear is quickly threatened. The tenuous bonds of the crew fray even further when a raging storm races toward them across the open ocean, and a mysterious box is discovered in the hold—possibly holding worse danger than a simple illness.

The crew of the Dragon’s Fear will quickly discover which is more perilous: being trapped with a monster, or with each other…
