Yandu Kagui : Eat, Train, Protect, Repeat
Thomas Zerda was just a young father trying to survive in the chaotic Rio de Janeiro.
Until he stumbled into a battle between two assassins and a monstrous creature.
Tortured. Stabbed. Left for dead.
But he didn’t die.
He awakened.
And with it, something ancient erupted inside: Ayvu, a brutal, spiritual energy that now makes him a target.
Hunted by creatures. Watched by a secret organization called The Moon Order.
So Thomas fights back.
A former programmer, he builds his own evolution system — tracking strength, speed, precision, Ayvu control, and neural stability using heart sensors, smartwatches, drones, and custom scripts.
He becomes his own leveling system.
Yandu Kaguy is a dark urban fantasy where the protagonist evolves without being chosen — he builds the rules himself.
And with every battle, he changes.
He’s not a hero.
But to protect his daughter, he’ll become something much worse.

Hi, this is my first novel, and English is not my native language, but I hope you enjoy it.
The main character, Thomas, is inspired by my own son, who shares the same name.
Olivia, his wife, is partly based on my partner, and partly on a strong personality designed to impact Thomas with the kind of words someone in his place would need to hear in order to keep going.
Their daughter, Gabrielle, is inspired by my goddaughter.
This story carries a deep emotional weight, as many of its moments are symbolic reflections of my own life.
I hope you can connect with it.
Sincerely,
Felipe
