Nexus of the Anomaly
Book #3 of The Anomaly Trilogy
An epic finale to an amazing adventure
In the explosive conclusion to The Anomaly Trilogy, Scarlett, Fernanda and their colleagues on the research vessels Stephen Jay Gould and Ana Maria Primavesi embark on a high-stakes mission to explore the depths above the Barbados accretionary prism. They make a
groundbreaking discovery, but their work is cut short when they are attacked by marine anomaly creatures, just before a deadly hurricane tears through the Caribbean, bearing down upon the island of Martinique.
On Martinique, vulcanologist Adeline Lavigne races against time to decode the pattern behind a series of escalating Caribbean earthquakes. With help from an unexpected ally, she uncovers a shocking truth that not only explains the anomaly’s attacks, but hints at an impending
natural disaster that could see the entire Caribbean destroyed.
Meanwhile, terminally ill scientist Charlie Metcalfe struggles to finish the one project he believes can stop the anomaly’s spread. As extraordinary new secrets emerge from the ocean’s abyss, the clock ticks towards a final confrontation that will force humanity to take one last stand against the anomaly, or face extinction.
Nexus of the Anomaly Book Review by Readers' Favorite

"Nexus of the Anomaly by Chris Cosmain concludes The Anomaly Trilogy with a burst of intelligence, heart, and awe-inspiring scope. In this climactic final installment of the sci-fi saga, Cosmain delivers a layered, high-stakes narrative that pulls together seismic activity, biological threats, and ecological reckoning with effortless grace. Set against the exotic, perilous backdrop of the Caribbean and featuring a cast of scientists, researchers, and would-be saviors, the story maintains a taut sense of urgency while unveiling the terrifying truth behind the anomaly threatening to reshape the world.
Author Chris Cosmain knows how to keep the intensity levels going from cover to cover in this thrill ride of a book. However, there’s a brilliant balance of quieter moments of suspicion and sudden, action-packed scenes that burst off the page with world-ending ferocity. It’s refreshing to see more and more ecological concerns entering this genre and being delivered with such conviction, and great research grounds the story in something realistic to make the more fantastical elements sink in with the terror and tension they deserve. I also really enjoyed the naturalistic style that the wide cast of ensemble characters uses to deliver information, making the context easy to pick up without ever sacrificing the fast pace. Charlie’s journey was particularly resonant for me and a great balance of emotive storytelling and crucial plot delivery when it’s most needed. Overall, Nexus of the Anomaly is a fantastic follow-up that I highly recommend to fans of the series so far."
