The Fifth Anomaly: A Threshold Chronicle

   Old Building with figures walking towards it.


The Fifth Anomaly: A Threshold Chronicle

(The Threshold Chronicles Book 1)


Four successful investigations. Zero confirmed supernatural encounters. The Urban Exploration Society has debunked dozens of urban legends with science and documentation.
Until Hillrose Penitentiary.

What begins as another routine investigation becomes something else entirely when Marcus Chen's team discovers a pattern. A pattern that repeats across decades, etched into the prison's structure and buried in its records. As they document the anomaly, the pattern begins to replicate. In their footage. In their notes. In their perception of time itself.
Some patterns demand to be observed. And observation changes the observer.

The Fifth Anomaly is the first book in The Threshold Chronicles, a cosmic horror series exploring the boundaries between humanity and their place in objective reality. This edition features an integrated soundtrack experience. Scan QR codes at chapter endings to hear the music that accompanies each threshold.

For readers of American Gods, House of Leaves, and the New Weird.

Obsidian Fade: Veiltorn - Book One

    Black Oblique worn and standing


Obsidian Fade: Veiltorn - Book One 


He shouldn’t be here.
His arrival cracked the world.
He was ripped from Earth and dropped into a realm of leystones, ancient magic, and monsters that should not exist. Now he’s the spark that causes the Veil, once this world’s only protection against invasion, to begin to fray. Armed with nothing but a mysterious AI symbiote and a past from another world, Orin must learn to survive in a land where every choice has consequences, and every battle shapes who he is becoming.
Rescued by a farm family on the edge of danger, Orin soon discovers that his presence has awakened something far older and far deadlier. Reports of twisted creatures, corrupted camps, and stirring rifts spread across the frontier. And deep in the Sylshade Glades, an ancient prophecy sends a young elven ranger and her mage apprentice companion on a mission to investigate a disturbance in the veil, pulling them toward Orin with alarming urgency.
The Veil is weakening. The invaders are waiting. And Orin may be the only one who can stop it, if the world doesn’t break him first.
Magic. Mystery. Monsters.
A destiny born from another world.
Obsidian Fade is the first book in the Veiltorn Series, a genre-blending epic that combines science fiction, epic fantasy, and LitRPG-style progression into a high-stakes tale of identity, sacrifice, and survival, perfect for fans of portal fantasy, isekai adventures, and character-driven worldbuilding.



The Death Wizard Chronicles: Volume 1

 Dragon Face on Fire


The Death Wizard Chronicles: Volume 1 


The Death Wizard Chronicles: Volume 1 is the opening book in an epic dark-fantasy trilogy set in the war-torn realm of Triken, where death itself can be harnessed as magic. The story centers on Torg, a Death Wizard, whose terrifying gift allows him to die voluntarily and return stronger each time, drawing power from the agony of his own demise. He is both champion and outcast—feared for what he can do, yet desperately needed as the last real defense against a rising tide of darkness.
Across Triken, brutal armies, monstrous creatures, and powerful sorcerers battle for control. Ancient forces stir, long-buried prophecies awaken, and a malevolent foe seeks not simply to conquer, but to break the world. Torg is drawn into a brutal conflict that will test his body, mind, and moral center. His struggle isn’t just against armies and tyrants, but against a deeper, more intimate threat: a monstrous enemy intent on devouring everything—and everyone—he loves. The series blends large-scale warfare with intimate character arcs. There’s rich world-building, a complex magic system based on the mechanics of death, and a tone that moves between visceral, violent, sensual, and deeply philosophical. While the battles are intense and the stakes apocalyptic, the heart of the story explores fear of mortality, the cost of power, sacrifice, trauma, and what it really means to be alive when death is never final.
