🌌 The Eleventh Star (Preview Edition). The full book, in paperback, hardback, and e-book formats, will be available on Amazon in 2026. In 2045, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Union stands united under eleven member states - a symbol of peace, progress, and shared destiny. But rumours whisper of a twelfth star, one that was never declared, and one that could change everything. When veteran intelligence officer Nathan van Surya of the ASEAN Joint Intelligence Bureau (AJIB) headquartered at Jalan Sisingamangara, Jakarta, uncovers a shipment of black drones bound for Port Moresby, he steps into a conspiracy that reaches beyond governments and into the invisible architecture of truth itself. The drones are only the beginning - fragments of a plan to reshape the digital Grid, the system that controls data, identity, and belief across the Union. With the help of Maya Tan, a brilliant marine biologist turned analyst haunted by the line between science and faith, Nathan races against time to expose a Directorate that manipulates reality itself. But when two strangers claiming to be agents from the future appear with warnings of a catastrophe yet to come, Nathan faces an impossible choice: trust the unknown, or risk the fall of the world he swore to defend. In a future where truth can be rewritten and memories can be programmed, loyalty may be humanity's last rebellion. 📘 Read the selected episodes of the book published twice a week here before the official launch of "The Eleventh Star".
