Silhouette Trepidation - A Thriller Sci-Fi Novel
When twins Cris and Clara Alexandria, and their friends step into the abandoned building in Corrisco, they expect nothing more than ghost stories and urban legends. But what they find lurking in the shadows is far more terrifying-monstrous, silhouette-like creatures that kill without warning. The deeper they explore, the more they uncover the building's horrifying secrets, including its connection to their father's mysterious death. As they piece together the truth, they realize they are not just trapped with the creatures-they are part of something much bigger, something designed to remain hidden. With time running out and danger closing in, the twins must fight to escape before they, too, become nothing more than shadows.
Perfect for fans of thriller, mystery, and sci-fi horror, Silhouette Trepidation takes you on a chilling journey where darkness hides more than just fear-it hides the truth.

Trepidation: Act 1
10,000 years in the future, humanity has long since inhabited a region of space simply known as the "Habitable Zone of the Milky Way," or simply the "Habitable Zone." Many advancements have been made, though many are irrelevant to the billions - or perhaps more - of souls scattered across space. Everything operates under the silent, vague, but present scrutiny of the gods, with thaumaturgic talents dominating many human cultures in some capacity. Churches reign over the post-Altarum territories a century after the Silence. The World, at least as far as many within the Habitable Zone are concerned, is a cold, thoughtless plane of existence. It is within a single vessel, known as the CSS Groundskeeper, do things begin to influence the "Things To Be," as labeled by followers of the pantheon. Within this ship, two individuals will face the beginning of what is to be unimaginable horrors within an unforgiving universe, both with the same goal: do not succumb to the darkness. Trepidation: Act I is the first story in what is to be a much longer novel detailing the story of two individuals in the cold universe. Act I may contain disturbing content for some readers. Special thanks to Lilian (liliantherat@bsky.social) Elise S. (Seventh Bean) Colt Klassic C.W.K. Peregrine Nasturtium_K Chaz Shade For inspiration and your characters for novel adaptation. Trepidation, Act I and future acts, would not be possible without all of you. (I am awestruck at how well this has done. The read to vote ratio is something I never could have expected, and I thank both my friends and all new readers for current and continued support, even if the support is merely reading. Seriously, thank you.)Complete
