She was never meant to be seen.

Born in the abyss—where light has never touched and pressure shapes every living thing—she was destined to remain hidden. A creature of the deep, unseen by the world above, drifting through the blackness, waiting.

Until one day… she rose.

For reasons unknown, a lone anglerfish ascended from the depths, leaving behind the only world she had ever known. She swam toward something distant, something beautiful—a light that was not her own.

And when she reached it… she was gone.

But not before she was seen.

A passing diver captured her final moments. The video spread like wildfire. The world mourned a creature it had never known—but somehow instantly loved.

The Fish Who Touched the Light is a poetic, emotional, and symbolic retelling of a real-life moment that mesmerized millions. Through science, storytelling, and deep emotional reflection, it brings new meaning to the strange and beautiful journey of one deep-sea anglerfish.

Inside, you’ll discover:

The alien, pressure-crushed world of the deep ocean—and the life that thrives there
What happens when deep-sea creatures rise to the surface
The meaning people found in her journey—and why it struck such a powerful chord
The symbolic connection between her story and our own human search for purpose

This is not just a book about a fish.

It’s about longing. About exploration. About rising beyond what you were built for—toward something greater.

For those who felt something when they saw her…

For those who can’t stop thinking about her rise…

For those who know what it means to chase the light…

This story is for you.

Infinite Life - The...

Jules Howard

Eggs are the origins of ninety percent of the Earth's organisms. They can be found as far apart as deep-sea volcanoes and in space. Yet despite their fundamental importance, eggs often find themselves an afterthought in the discussion of evolution of life on Earth as the interests of scientists congregate around the things that emerge from eggs rather than the eggs themselves. 
 
 
 
In Infinite Life, Jules Howard explains—with great passion, authority, expertise, and infectious enthusiasm—why it's time to give eggs their moment in the spotlight: it is the eggs that can teach us new and surprising lessons about Earth's history, the trials of life, and the exceptional ways in which natural selection operates to propagate the survival of individual species. 
 
 
 
Infinite Life: The Revolutionary Story of Eggs, Evolution, and Life on Earth, offers a wholly new perspective on the animal kingdom, and, indeed, life on Earth. By examining eggs from their earliest histories to the very latest fossilized discoveries—encompassing the myriad changes and mutations of eggs from the evolution of yolk, to the hard eggshells of lost dinosaurs, to the animals that have evolved to simultaneously give birth to eggs and live young—Howard reveals untold stories of great diversity and majesty to shed light on the huge impact that egg science has on our lives.
