Historias de Afrofuturism

In a world that is old and in the cross road of the slave trade, a girl and her spirits try to find their way home after escaping from the slave castle.

In 1892, a celestial event over the Oklahoma Territory dropped "Star-Silt," a crystalline powder that "tuned" the earth to a 432-Hertz frequency. This created the sanctuary of Boley, protected from a violent world by a shimmering "Vail". However, residents pay a price: the "Geometry of Pain," where their marrow vitrifies into "Marrow-Glass," eventually turning them into literal components of the town's machinery. The story follows Hester Cefferty, a maintenance man for the Pylon (the town's frequency generator), whose body is failing as the glass claims his joints. Desperate for relief, he accepts "Solvent-7" from Sloane Van Meter, an operative for the Syndicate-an elite collective of engineers who view humanity as a "Drafting Error" to be corrected. The Syndicate seeks to harvest Boley's frequency to power the Acheron, a massive, lead-shielded locomotive designed to "Assume" reality into a frictionless, silent archive. Hester consumes the Solvent-7, dissolving his Marrow-Glass but severing his connection to the sanctuary's "Hum". He crosses the "Sunder-Point" into the "Soft" world to aid the Syndicate, only to realize their leader, Cyprian Graves, intends to trigger a "Harmonic Meltdown" to harvest the Pylon's energy. Hester's sister, Lark, and Elias, a blacksmith whose wife was "hollowed out" by the machine, use "Dissonance"-shards of obsidian and specialized tuning forks-to disrupt the Syndicate's logic. During the "Grand Assumption," Hester realizes he must become a "Human Tuning Fork" to stabilize the world. He undergoes "Scripting," where dampening runes are etched into his bones, turning him into a "Closed Circuit" that can bridge the gap between industrial "Grit" and celestial "Gold". The novel concludes with a battle at the Apex-Node in the "Silent Mountain," where the trio shatters the Syndicate's "Harvest-Moon" to prevent the world from being "Assumed" into an eternal void. Hester survives as the "Governor of the Vail," tethered to the interface.

London is cold. They run hot. ​For most people, the Wiring is a metaphor. For Kam, Leo, and Taylor, it's a death sentence if they lose control. ​In a city that wants to chew them up, three boys have to balance the heat, the speed, and the strain without burning out-or melting down. ​The Tank: Kam carries the weight. With skin radiating molten orange heat and a body built for impact, every moment is a test of endurance. He's the shield, but the stone slab he wields is getting heavier every day. ​The Glitch: Leo sees the code. Bathed in the cold blue light of his monitors, he's the sleepless architect keeping them one step ahead of the system. He knows the math, but he's running out of battery. ​The Speedrun: Taylor sets the pace. A blur of red nylon and arrogant energy, he treats survival like a time trial. He's the fastest thing on the street, provided he doesn't crash. ​They are different elements-Fire, Tech, and Kinetic force-but they share one rule: Keep the coolant flowing. ​Because if the heat rises too high, the game is over. ​Updates [Saturdays] | Visuals Inside ​

The past never dies, it lingers in the blood. Two sons rise from the ashes of their fathers' sins. In the war between shadow and sunlight, legacy decides who survives.

The sun gave them power. The storm gave them purpose. The sky wants them both dead. In the coastal sprawl of Solara City, the sky no longer feels safe. Eighteen-year-old brothers Jasiré and Kassim Sun discover their lives were never ordinary when a solar anomaly awakens powers buried in their blood-powers inherited from a world that no longer exists. Jasiré commands living solar energy, calm and controlled, while Kassim channels raw lightning and storm force, volatile and unrestrained. As the brothers struggle to understand what they've become, a shadowy project known as Helios begins reshaping the atmosphere above their city-turning clean energy into a weapon and humanity into fuel. Behind it stands Khadim Nocturne, a man willing to suffocate the world to rebuild it, and the ancient alien entity he serves: Kha'Zir Anuun, the destroyer of the brothers' lost home planet. With Earth on the brink of conversion and the sky slowly turning against its people, Jasiré and Kassim must decide whether power is something to control... or unleash. Torn between brotherhood and belief, sacrifice and survival, they face a truth written in the stars: They are not the future of Earth. They are the last defense against its extinction. SUNSTORM is a bold, Afrofuturist superhero epic about legacy, brotherhood, and the cost of rewriting destiny-where the fight for tomorrow begins in the sky above us.

Rift Child A Dust & Stardust Story "To the ones who remember... Welcome home." In a world where the stars have vanished and memory is currency, a girl named Mita awakens in the ash of a forgotten war - not because she remembers who she is, but because something remembers her. Glowing with golden veins and haunted by dreams that don't belong to this lifetime, Mita is pulled into a world buried beneath silence: a forest that hums with ancient names, a tree that holds the stories of the lost, and a city built from starlight and sorrow. As she uncovers the truth of her identity - Asharaya, Daughter of the Rift - she realizes she is more than a survivor. She is a signal. A weapon born from wounds. A god that chose to return. But remembering comes with a price. And not everyone wants the forgotten to rise. Told in poetic, immersive language, Rift Child is a soul-myth for the neurodivergent, the spiritually awake, and the grief-born. It's for the ones who never fit in because they weren't meant to - they were meant to remember.
