Their paths will cross in Voyages of Fortune: an action-packed, time-travel adventure of self-discovery, as they search for their place in life, while caught in the throes of a thrilling supernatural political gambit that links a castle in the European Middle Ages with a pirate ship on the high seas of 21st century Asia.
