The Spiral Wakes: Book One of A Wounded Land

The mountain realm lies in ruins. Betrayal has shattered its oaths, and the guardians who once held the valley together are scattered or dead.
Elrich, heir to a fallen house, is thrust into leadership by his father’s murder and the collapse of the old order. As rival powers move to claim what remains—Ardain, warlord of the east, and Cormac, a relentless conqueror—the last survivors of the Oath-Bound are hunted from the shadows. Hidden among friend and foe alike are whispers of the Spiral, an ancient force thought lost to time.
Guided by Kael, a mystic burdened by prophetic visions, and Asher, a boy bearing impossible memories, Elrich must reclaim the lost flame that once united the realm.
Set among haunted mountain passes and forgotten ruins, The Spiral Wakes is a tale of broken oaths, rising leaders, and the cost of unity in a world on the brink of silence.

Zero Lux

ZERO LUX is a near-future techno-noir thriller that cuts into the nature of truth in a world where reality is curated, filtered, and cryptographically signed before it ever reaches the public.
Warrant officer and systems specialist Mara Kade stumbles upon a classified anomaly: two feeds of the same operation. In one, a man exists. In the other, he never did. One feed is unstable, human, and flawed. The other is clean, official—and wrong.
As Mara digs deeper into the ghost architecture of her city—fog-heavy ports, sodium-lit streets, and sealed surveillance chambers where history is quietly rewritten—she finds herself hunted not for her actions, but for her awareness.
Tense, cinematic, and razor-smart, ZERO LUX blends high-stakes action with creeping paranoia, challenging the very idea of objective truth in a system designed to manufacture it.
