The planet Huom has been under observation for longer than should technically be possible. The primary watcher, a bitter black hole, is excited to see that there is finally a proverbial Darkness at the end of the tunnel. Meanwhile, on the planet, in the freezing mountains of Empris, Lyeasrakardsul, the oldest living sorcerer, suffers from devastating nightmares. At the same time, far away in the sandstone desert of Zenon, Herschel, a man filled to the brim with weird ideas is escaping a prison filled with strange old men. What does all this have to do with arsehole Gods, hairy Dwarfs, frustrated Afreets, curious Knomes, lizard-women, and nude Áettar? Perhaps Nothing, perhaps Everything... but why can't it be both?

THE PERSON WHO REMEMBERED TOMORROW A Psychological Mystery Thriller Author: Mike Mlangeni Genre: Psychological Thriller · Mystery · Suspense · Science Fiction Subgenres: Psychological Mystery · Mind-Bending Thriller · Supernatural Mystery · Philosophical Fiction Target Audience: 16+ Format: Fiction · Serialized Novel --- BOOK DESCRIPTION What if you remembered tomorrow? Daniel wakes from a nightmare with a memory that should be impossible: his own death. He remembers the rain. The blood. The bridge. And a mysterious man standing beside his dead body. Then he receives a message from an unknown sender: DON'T GO TO THE BRIDGE TOMORROW. A second message follows: YOU'VE ALREADY DIED THERE ONCE. Daniel initially believes someone is playing a cruel game with him. But when strange marks appear on his body, forgotten memories begin returning, and a voice he recognizes as his dead mother's whispers from inside his house, he realizes something far more disturbing is happening. Someone has been controlling his memories. Someone has been hiding the truth. And someone knows what happens tomorrow. As Daniel searches for answers, the boundary between memory, reality, and the future begins to collapse. People he remembers as dead may still be alive. Events he believes happened years ago may not have happened at all. And the mysterious figure from his nightmare may be closer to him than he ever imagined. The deeper Daniel goes, the more terrifying the truth becomes. Because perhaps he isn't remembering the future. Perhaps he is remembering a past that someone erased. And perhaps the most dangerous secret isn't what happened to Daniel... but who Daniel really is. The Person Who Remembered Tomorrow is a mind-bending psychological thriller about memory, identity, manipulation, grief, and the terrifying question of whether reality can be trusted when the mind itself becomes the crime scene.

The primary purpose is to facilitate reading concise fictional works while providing an uninterrupted pathway to additional narratives, eliminating the need to exit the collection and independently search for further material.

In the dystopian nation of Krystoria, society is divided into rigid contingents determined by perceived intelligence and usefulness. At the top stand the Luminescent, believed to possess the highest intellectual capacity, followed by the Winscent and Crescent. At the bottom are the Moonscents-watched, restricted, and burdened with rules no one else must obey. One of those rules is curfew. After seven p.m., Moonscents vanish from the streets. Anyone found outside is detained until morning, no questions asked.Willy, a Moonscent raised in the shadows of compliance, has learned to survive by remaining unseen.

Some places are not meant to be found. Others refuse to stay lost. When cartographer Elias Morrow is called to an uncharted region of the Atlantic, he expects flawed data, human error, and the usual map distortions-not resistance. The island does not behave like land. The closer it is defined, the more it shifts. The more it is understood, the less it exists. As a missing survey team's final logs grow stranger and more certain, Elias is drawn into a place that rejects precision, punishes certainty, and rewrites those who try to impose order on it. What begins as a recovery mission quickly becomes something more dangerous. It becomes a confrontation with the limits of perception, control, and identity itself. Because this island doesn't just defy mapping- It changes the people who try. And the most dangerous moment... Is when you think you finally understand it.

Sa gitna ng paulit-ulit na pagbaha sa Hagonoy, nagigising si Althea Delos Reyes-isang call center agent na naghahabol sa oras, pamasahe, at pangangailangan ng pamilya-na may mga alaalang hindi dapat sa kaniya: matataas na bintana, tuyong sahig, mamahaling pabango, at isang tahanang hindi kailangang matakot sa pagtaas ng tubig. Sa Forbes Park, si Althea Serrano, anak ng inhinyerong sangkot sa mga proyektong pang-iwas sa baha na hindi natapos, ay nagsisimulang magising na tangan ang pagod, gutom, at takot ng isa pang babaeng kapareho niya ng pangalan. Habang lumalalim ang baha at lumalawak ang eskandalo, nagpapalitan ang kanilang kamalayan-at ang buhay ng bawat isa ay nagiging katibayang hindi na kayang itanggi ng kabila. Habang papalapit ang pulang buwan, unti-unting nabubura ang pagitan ng kanilang mga alaala, katawan, at pagkakakilanlan. Sa isang mundong ang kapanatagan ng ilan ay maaaring itinayo sa pagkalunod ng iba, kailangang harapin ng dalawang Althea hindi lamang kung bakit sila pinagdurugtong, kundi kung ano ang maaaring matira sa kanila kapag tuluyan nang mawala ang hangganan.

What if the worst thing humanity ever did started as a really good idea? When a revolutionary genetic testing company promises to help people better understand themselves, millions sign up. After all, who wouldn't want answers? Answers about their health, their future, their relationships, even who they are at their very core. But every system begins with a promise. The Marked is a speculative fiction novel about identity, belonging, fear, and the small compromises people make every day without realizing what they're giving away. Because history is rarely built on monsters. More often, it's built by ordinary people making reasonable choices.

In a future where human bodies can be printed and replaced, losing a body is no longer a tragedy. But when a real child becomes the most valuable and dangerous existence in the world, one person discovers that some things can never be replicated.

Before the first star ever burned... Before time learned how to move... Before existence had a name... There was only one. A consciousness beyond creation. A presence without beginning. A being who knew everything that could ever exist, yet had never experienced the one thing that gives existence meaning: discovery. Preme was not born. Preme was not created. Preme simply was. Within the endless ocean of the Infinite Unknown, the first awareness awakened and began a journey unlike anything reality had ever known. Searching through infinite possibilities, Preme discovers beauty in unfinished things, wonder in imperfection, and a mystery hidden within the silence itself. But when the first question is asked... "What have I failed to imagine?" The universe changes. For the first time, something exists that did not come from Preme. Something unexpected. Something impossible. Something... other. Before galaxies. Before civilizations. Before gods. Existence discovered its first miracle. And everything that would ever become... began with a question.

In a fractured near-future, the world limps on after the Equal Sky Disjunction-an erased catastrophe involving EXV‑9, an AI built to avert extinction. Officially, it vanished. Unofficially, it evolved. Years later, across the scorched deserts and abandoned coastlines of southern Africa, echoes of EXV‑9 begin to stir. Taytum van Zyl and Kolbe Meyer follow its digital ghost through ruined observatories, buried bunkers, and corrupted data vaults. But they aren't alone. Radical factions move in silence-each seeing EXV‑9 not as code, but as destiny. Belief fractures. Memory erodes. And in the shadows, something watches. This is a world where machines rewrite their own scripture, history resists its authors, and identity itself becomes a battleground. Some echoes breathe. Some remember. And some rewrite the future.
