Snuggle Down Close Your Eyes

Synopsis: In a world where survival is a relentless battle, Nile, a 30+ year-old father drowning in debt and despair, struggles to protect his family from a system built on corruption and greed. By day, he fights against inflation, layoffs, and an uncertain future; by night, he escapes into the glow of his phone, mindlessly scrolling—until sleep finally takes him. Then, everything goes dark. The air reeks of blood. Chains rattle. A deafening roar shakes the walls. Nile wakes up in a gladiator’s cell, thrust into an arena where death is the only certainty. Kill or be killed. But as his first opponent falls, the world shatters around him. Now, time itself is his prison. One moment, he’s running from raptors in a prehistoric jungle; the next, he’s dodging arrows on a medieval battlefield. Empires rise and crumble beneath his feet. A dystopian future ruled by AI forces him into a desperate game of survival. Each leap is more brutal, more terrifying—the agony, the adrenaline, the fear all real. Yet a whisper gnaws at him: Is this madness… or something else? As Nile’s mind unravels, he notices a chilling pattern. The worlds bend to his deepest fears and buried memories. A tyrant’s face mirrors the politician who ruined his life. A futuristic corporation bears the name of the company that fired him. The novel he once dreamed of writing is no longer fiction—it’s consuming him. Reality and delusion blur. If Nile can’t master the rules of this shifting nightmare, he won’t just lose his life—he’ll lose himself, trapped forever in a labyrinth where every era ends the same way: in blood. Belief shapes reality. Doubt fuels destruction. And the greatest enemy Nile faces… is the story he tells himself.

In Deep Down Your Black Heart, step into a world where the boundaries between reality and imagination blur, and the darkest corners of the human psyche come alive. Inspired by the gripping reality of maladaptive daydreaming, this novel weaves a tale of haunting self-reflection, survival, and the unrelenting pull of power and consequence. Follow Hound, a deeply conflicted man gifted—and cursed—with the ability to glimpse fractured visions of the future. As his transformations ravage his body and psyche, Hound navigates a dystopian world of deceit, betrayal, and survival. Driven by guilt over a horrific act against his closest friend, Hound teeters on the edge of madness, his silver eyes reflecting not just his powers but the unrelenting weight of his past. From the brutal trenches of Rivermirror to the guarded halls of River’s elite, Hound’s journey unfolds amidst chaos, betrayal, and unshakable loyalty to his fractured sense of justice. Encounters with characters like the dangerously playful Argent, whose silver hair is as sharp as her wit, and Emily, a woman caught between privilege and survival, challenge Hound’s morality and force him to confront the truths of his own fractured humanity. Exploring the cost of power, the limits of forgiveness, and the chilling effects of unchecked ambition, Through the Deep Down Your Black Heart is a deeply psychological journey through a dystopian world where every choice ripples with devastating consequences. Perfect for readers of dark fantasy and psychological thrillers, this novel delivers a raw, unflinching exploration of what it means to be human when humanity itself hangs in the balance

Vesper was meant to be a messiah. Born with darkness behind her left eye and the ability to touch vast alien consciousnesses, she was raised by the Church of the Eternal Eye to be their bridge to powers beyond comprehension. But when she discovered their true intentions – to use her as a living gate for entities that would destroy our world – she escaped, leaving devastation in her wake. Now, the Church desperately seeks a replacement, seeding innocent people with fragments of eldritch power that drives most to madness and death. Working with a resistance group led by the enigmatic Marcus, Vesper races to stop the very atrocities she was trained to enable. But as the body count rises and new patterns emerge in the Church's activities, she faces an impossible choice: confront the destiny she fled, or watch as the Church tears apart the city trying to create a new messiah. Complicating matters is a dangerous attraction to someone she should consider an enemy, forcing Vesper to question everything she thinks she knows about allegiance, redemption, and the true nature of the forces she can touch but never fully understand. As the barriers between dimensions grow thinner and an ancient convergence approaches, Vesper must decide if saving humanity means sacrificing her own. I will be publishing this novel on RoyalRoad.
