    In a dystopian Johannesburg where time is a commodity, every citizen's lifespan is meticulously tracked and traded. Dane Mokoena, a disillusioned auditor at Aion Registry Capital, unearths a chilling conspiracy: the Lazarus Project, a system designed to steal time from the dead and transfer it to the elite. Haunted by his father's death due to temporal debt, Dane embarks on a perilous quest for justice, joining forces with a disgraced executive and a rebellious hacker. Together, they navigate a corrupt system, facing ruthless adversaries and impossible odds to expose the truth and dismantle the machinery of temporal theft. "Ledger of the Lost Hours" is a gripping tale of rebellion, sacrifice, and the fight to reclaim humanity in a world where time is not just money, but life itself.

    In this anthology series, Nietzsche's Ubermensch comes to life. His hair is nappy, his nose is broad, and his complexion kissed by the sun. With a clap of her hands, she causes hurricanes. As her fingers snap, time slows. He can speak and create, and she can dream and destroy. The Superman is real, and they are an African. In this anthology series, we'll bear witness not to their epic exploits, but to the mundane melancholies of life in a world where Black kids can stop bullets, read minds, and fly. Welcome to the Afro-Future, today! Chapter 1: In "An Urban Legend Has It..." we meet Othello Richard Shannon, aka the super-speeding hero in a XXXL red hoodie, Dynamic! He didn't used to mind getting clowned in his civilian life since he has two A-One, Day-Ones that he can depend on to lift his spirits. But lately, this hero's been feeling like a third wheel. Chapter 2: In "The Stupendous Adventures of the Super Union" a team of superheroes gathers for the funeral of one of their own, Aspiration. Tensions run high as they discuss the impromptu sexual assault trial that led to Aspiration's death and the dismissal of one of their teammates. Chapter 3: In "Interrogation", young archivist Zaraz is asked to record and transcribe the interrogation of Regicide--the famous supervillain and archenemy of King Soul. The villain makes a lot of wild claims about King Soul's past, but surely they couldn't be true. Chapter 4: in "CRISIS of Faith" It wasn't easy for humanity to accept the existence of superhumans. But our narrator was lucky enough to be born in a time of peace between those with and those without powers. There are systems in place which help keep interactions running smoothly. That's the intention, at least.

    A DYING EARTH The world is but a shadow of itself-the skies as crimson as blood. The land seeping acidic sludge. The people, miserable. Lycan Federation-the only habitable geographical area in post apocalyptic earth, situated in Africa-is ruled by fascist communists called Echelons. Society is split in a caste system; the green Lycan Cities are shrouded in a field that sustains their environment whilst the diseased Fringe Towns cling to the edges of the cities. Distraught. A GRIM PROPHECY Mori (a cyborg) and Aṣa (a magic using Fringeborn) must abandon their daily lives in Lycan Federation to become hunted outcasts on a perilous journey to save an elder witch. A journey that shall end with either the destruction or the repair of earth. AN IMPENDING REVOLUTION The F.R.A. (Fringe Rebel Association) have sworn am oath to snatch the world back from Lycan Fed. They will gladly die to see earth back in its full glory. Lemi (a former Lycan scientist) enacts a curious plan to fulfil the F.R.A.s aims. In the end, destiny will have its way.

    In the neon shadows of Rhodesia, freedom is a myth and memory is a weapon. Four Gridlockes rule-mines, data, food, and guns-while the Black Helix coils above the city, feeding on despair. Told through the eyes of Kuliwa, a reluctant survivor haunted by ghosts of the past and glitches in his own mind, Neorhodesia is a story of rebellion, fractured identity, and the thin line between dreams and nightmares. If cyberpunk had roots in Lusaka's streets, this is where it would grow.
