GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions be known. Thank you.

The Child of Two Worlds

Synopsis The child of Two world For centuries, the world has been divided into two warring continents—one ruled by immortals (Yahu), who can only die under a curse or by the legendary Green Muna Stone, and the other by mortals (Una), who live up to 300 years but crave eternal life. The war between them was supposed to have ended in surrender, but beneath the surface, hatred and rebellion still burn. In the midst of this chaos, a boy who should not exist is born. Leo Benu, the forbidden child of a mortal mother and an immortal father, is an anomaly—a semi-immortal, a being deemed impossible. His birth was considered a miracle, yet it was also a curse. One that he only realizes after witnessing the brutal murder of his parents. In his moment of unimaginable grief, something awakens within him. A power unlike any mortal or immortal has ever seen—a mix of red and black aura, an uncontrollable force fueled by rage and loss. The battlefield turns into a slaughterhouse, and when the blood clears, Leo stands alone. But his suffering is far from over. Branded as a cursed existence, hunted by both sides, and carrying the weight of a prophecy he does not yet understand, Leo is left with two choices—end the war by choosing one side and destroying the other, or carve a new path that no one dares to walk. Yet, his journey comes with a cruel price—the Time Reversal Curse. Every time Leo dies, he is reborn… but loses a part of his memory. His loved ones, his mission, his past—all fade away with each death. And with every step, the line between justice and vengeance begins to blur. Will he break the cycle of war, or will he become its greatest tragedy? A tale of power, loss, and an endless battle against fate begins. The war is not over. And neither is Leo.

The Fractured Realm

Eliar Vayne was a man who thrived on logic, a mathematician devoted to unraveling the universe’s most complex mysteries. But when an experiment in his lab goes catastrophically wrong, he finds himself thrust into a shattered, alien world—a place ruled by chaos and cruelty, where survival is the only law. In this desolate realm of jagged landscapes and crimson skies, Eliar is no longer bound by the rules of his old life. Here, power is drawn from the raw energy pulsing through the world itself—a chaotic force that bends to those strong enough to command it. For Eliar, logic is his only weapon. With his understanding of patterns and equations, he begins to shape the energy into spells unlike anything this world has seen. But the world he’s been thrown into is not merciful. Predators stalk the shadows, rival survivors would sooner kill than trust, and the land itself seems alive with malevolent intent. Eliar must adapt quickly, forging alliances where he can and outwitting enemies who see his intellect as weakness. Every step forward is a battle, every mistake a potential death sentence. As Eliar navigates this unforgiving world, he uncovers traces of an ancient civilization—a people who once mastered the same energy he now wields. Their downfall holds the key to understanding this broken realm, and perhaps, to Eliar’s survival. But the deeper he delves into the world’s secrets, the more he realizes the truth: this world has no intention of letting him leave unscathed. Driven by the faint hope of carving out a peaceful existence, Eliar must endure relentless trials and confront the darkness within himself. In a world without mercy, only those who embrace the chaos will survive.
