The Eighth Continent: Aurelia

Until the morning the eighth appeared.
Without warning, satellites detect a massive landmass rising from the depths of the Pacific Ocean-an entire continent that had never existed on any map, chart, or historical record. The world watches in disbelief as aircraft confirm the impossible: the continent is not only real... it is fully inhabited.
Its name is Aurelia.

As world governments scramble to understand the phenomenon, scientists uncover terrifying contradictions. Geological scans show that Aurelia is millions of years old. Yet no satellite, no ship, and no explorer has ever seen it before.
