In the world of “Pluribus,” we follow the story of Carol, played by the talented Rhea Seehorn, as she grapples with the fame and scrutiny that comes with being a bestselling author. During a book signing at Barnes and Noble, Carol faces questions from fans about the absence of Raban, the series’ heartthrob, on the cover of her latest book.

Despite her success, Carol harbors a deep disdain for her own work and the fans who adore it.
The fourth installment in the “Wycaro” series, “Bloodsong of Wycaro,” invites readers to join Lucasia, the fearless Captain of the duneship Mercator, on a perilous quest across the mystical sands of Wycaro.
