📚 Book Title: Echoes of Dust

📝 Genre: Islamic Horror | Mystery | Comedy | Alternate Reality

🌍 Language: English (with Islamic & Desi cultural elements)


---

📖 Book Description:

In a forgotten village where the soil remembers more than the living... something has awakened.

Arham is an INTJ archaeologist-quiet, logical, haunted by questions buried deeper than ruins. He lives alone, trusts no one, and believes truth lies in the dust of ancient civilizations, not in people.

Ayesha is an ENFP Islamic teacher-bright, funny, and full of faith. She teaches Qur'an with memes and metaphors, hides her own trauma in laughter, and believes healing starts with hope.

They don't know each other.
They don't believe in the same things.
But when both are called to Bhairavpur-a mysterious village plagued by whispers, disappearances, and unseen eyes watching from beneath the earth-their paths collide in a way that neither science nor religion can fully explain.

As horror slowly peels the surface of this "normal" village, Arham must confront what logic can't explain, and Ayesha must face the fear she hides behind her smile.All Rights Reserved

Aks - Not all echoes fade by Paradox-101

Some echoes return not to be heard - but to be lived again. She thought grief was the worst of her nightmares. But then the walls began to whisper. Then the dreams turned strange. And then - the shadows remembered her name. Karishma Singh buried the ghosts of her past in law books and courtroom walls. But some echoes don't stay buried. Something watches her now - something older than memory, and more personal than fear. As darkness coils tighter around her, her only anchor is Inspector Haseena Malik - fierce, flawed, and unrelenting in her love. But love may not be enough. This isn't a reflection. It's an echo from before. And Aks, once returned, doesn't leave quietly.

The Age Of Dust And Divine Order by wasiqfayaz

The Age of Dust and Divine Order Reflections on the Fall of Faith, the Struggle for Justice, and the Return to God In an age where men worship their own reflections and nations bow before the illusion of freedom, The Age of Dust and Divine Order stands as both mirror and warning. It is not a sermon. It is a reckoning. Through poetic essays, real-based stories, and reflections rooted in the Islamic tradition, this work exposes the fractures of the modern soul - the loss of sincerity, the decay of justice, and the silence of truth in the age of noise. It moves from the wars within the heart to the corruption of empires, from the pride of intellect to the poverty of spirit - revealing how every fallen civilization begins with a fallen soul. This is not merely a call for reform; it is a manifesto for inner revival. It declares that the restoration of Divine Order must begin where all truth begins - in the purified heart that fears none but Allah. Blending Qur'anic depth, prophetic wisdom, and lyrical storytelling, The Age of Dust and Divine Order invites the reader to reflect, to rise, and to return. "Am I not your Lord?" They said, "Yes, we testify." - Qur'an 7:172 wasiq fayaz-

Holding on and Letting go [Complete] by PotterMIfs

[BLURB] "Well, now I'm back and I'm gonna drag you to court, you piece of shite," she said before passing a humorless chortle. "Do that and you're doomed." He sniggered, his manevolent gaze hurling obscenities towards her. "Oh yeah? How?" She rose a perfect eyebrow, animosity etched on each lineament. "Let's just say, I have something of yours that'll destroy you." The telltale monstrosity perceptible in his evil kingdom of eyes set a havoc inside her adrenaline rushing body but she held her grounds strong. "And what's that?" And there he showed her something that choked the life out of her frail body as she lost her balance in dizziness. ****** Love is elusive but sometimes it knocks right at your door but you're too arrogant to pay it any heed or maybe too scared to acknowledge it. Either way, destiny always knows how to play its part well. You can ignore it but can never run away from it. It never lets you evade itself and follows you everywhere, like a shadow. Crooning and spreading its arms right open at you, enveloping you from every nook, cajoling you, brandishing your tattered soul, and enticing you to the point where you have to surrender and accept it. Where you have to hold on to it and let everything else go. Because sometimes all a ragged soul and a chasm heart need is a pint of love. The tale of two youngsters who kept finding their way towards each other no matter how hard they tried to ignore it. Life would always collide their paths. Always making up their minds to never see each other again to always bumping on each other, destiny already had something else in store for them. So what was it? A journey of loathing to love. A journey of holding on and letting go.

UNDERNEATH by Kinslee_Matherne

Trapped in a decaying house with a dark past, one where whispers of missing people linger in every creak and shadow, a young woman is abandoned by the one person she thought she could trust. As the walls seem to close in and her unease grows, she begins to feel it-the presence of something watching her, moving beneath her bed. What lies beneath the surface of the house, and how far will she go to uncover the truth?

I Can See Their Death by Callme_pierre28

In the depths of her childhood, at the tender age of 7, an unsettling gift awakened within her - the power to glimpse the impending demise of others. Ghosts and ethereal apparitions became her companions, while the looming specter of death itself held an unyielding presence in her life. Anleane possessed an eerie talent; her visions never faltered, always revealing the cruel inevitability of mortality. Even those closest to her weren't spared. Hauntingly, she foresaw her own mother's fate, the grim prophecy manifesting just days before its fulfillment. A chilling truth gripped Anleane's reality: those she glimpsed in her visions were bound to the realm beyond. There was no escape from the dance of death that she alone witnessed. And then, the inexplicable occurred - her own figure materialized within the confines of her ominous predictions. Confronted with the realization of her impending doom, Anleane's fight for survival intensified, a desperate attempt to defy the very destiny she once foretold. Amidst the relentless shadows of her cursed ability, Anleane grapples with a question that consumes her every thought: Can she, against all odds, outwit the clutches of the inescapable, or will she become yet another victim to the merciless hands of fate?

ENIGMA : Unmasking The Mystery by sins_inink

Obsession doesn't knock at the door-it slips in quietly, hidden in shadows, whispered through silence, and sealed inside a letter. For Ishani, life was meant to be simple-classes, laughter with her roommate, late-night calls with her sister. But each month, her nightmare arrives: a letter. Plain, ordinary... and yet deadlier than a knife. Because it's his. The faceless stranger who has followed her for years. The shadow who never lets her breathe. The man whose obsession isn't love-it's possession. No one knows who he is. No one has seen his face. But Ishani feels him everywhere- in the stillness of night, in crowded rooms, in every step she takes. Every word in his letters drips with obsession, every threat is a promise: she belongs to him. And anyone who dares to come close to her pays with their life. Her friends think she's paranoid. Her family believes she's fine. But Ishani knows the truth-she isn't living, she's surviving him. This isn't love. This is obsession-dark, merciless, and unrelenting. Step into Ishani's world, where every knock on the door is a warning, every stranger a suspect, and every letter a piece of her doom. A psychological thriller that will keep you questioning every shadow, this book explores the terrifying truth: sometimes, the monster isn't under your bed or hiding in the dark. Sometimes, he walks beside you in plain sight. And once you open this book, his obsession won't just haunt Ishani-it will haunt you too. ♡Ms.Gupta♡
