"It was never just a book. It was a curse with a spine." They called it a magical book. But what it really was… was a home for a curse older than humankind itself. And every time someone opens it— It awakens. It feeds. And it survives—by devouring people, piece by piece. But this time? This time, it’s different. This time… it chose Jude Mercer. Seventeen. Broken since birth. A kid who’s never known what happiness feels like. But now? Now he’s the unlucky punk who unlocked a curse powerful enough to wipe out civilizations. Only—he’s not running from it. He’s standing his ground. He’ll be the first to resist it. The first to control it. Or die trying. But how the hell is that even possible? What exactly is this curse capable of? What did Jude do to survive it… and why are powerful underground organizations suddenly hunting him down like he’s their final boss? All that and more—inside my novel. And hey—if you’re reading this? Hope you dig the ride.

Sudden reappearance of Mytharok - a world shrouded in obscurity and preposterous claims - disrupts everything. The so-called guardians of cosmic balance step up, speaking of dangers beyond comprehension and trials resembling the beginning of recorded history. And the universe listens... In the following current of events two reluctant figures are caught. Fengyu, the disillusioned younger brother of a ruler, floats above it all with cultivated indifference. But he finds himself 'sent' to the Temple of Mytharok against his will. On the other hand, Mokai, poised to breeze through the challenge, begins to crack under the weight of others’ expectations. And everything and everyone around them seems to have their own hidden agenda. As their world collides with an alien one, they are drawn into the long fogotten history of the First Gates and the mystery of Firme. They must confront the open secrets long ignored, the forces that shaped the very structure of the universe and dangers that lurk beyond... In that shifting landscape, nothing remains as it was - not the world, not the balance of power, and certainly not who they believed themselves to be. For the greatest collision may not be between worlds - but between who they were, and who they are becoming.
