Broken Compass Year
It's the year 2008, and sixteen-year-old Royce Fontaine is looking forward to a long summer vacation alone with his siblings. If by 'looking forward' you mean 'totally dreading', that is. Their island is abandoned, and abandoned islands tend to be boring. Three months of boredom tend to make siblings fight, if for no other reason than to have something to do. So when things get weird and his father offers up a prospective vacation -- a real one, off the island and without the odious presence of his older brother -- Royce finds himself thrilled at the possibilities. New places, new people who don't know him as the pathetic geek that he is, maybe even a summer fling, provided he manages to find a way to get girls to notice him. It seems as if he can't lose. But then his father asks for his help carrying the load in the household, and he finds himself unexpectedly dealing with some consequences -- not of his own actions, but of his father's. Cast adrift in the multiverse, it falls to Royce to protect his younger sister in a fight for survival with nothing but his wits and a broken compass. Book 2 in a series about a family struggling to come together against powerful forces with a vested interest in keeping them apart.Complete

The Enigma Protocol: No Brother of Mine (Book 1)
Two estranged brothers. One ancient secret. And nowhere to run, not from Enigma, and not from each other. But history won't hand you the truth. You'll have to piece it together yourself. Ask questions. The story might answer back. *** Teorin is close to uncovering the truth behind his father's disappearance, until a stolen drive puts him in the crosshairs of the one person he can't outrun: the brother who left him behind. Marcus walked away to protect his family. Now an old ally drags him back into his brother's orbit, forcing a choice: expose the truth, seek revenge, or protect the brother he thought he'd already lost. In a world scarred by solar storms, power isn't just political, it's biological. People are born with affinities-heat, memory, pressure, time-and someone in the shadows is erasing anyone who digs too deep. 📖 Told through prose, in world documents, and comment threads (yes, the actual comments). Each voice carries its own style, from clipped restraint to dramatic flair. The Enigma Protocol isn't just a story; it's a reconstruction. You'll have to decide where the truth lies. A slow-burn science-fantasy epic for fans of The Expanse, Mistborn, and Annihilation-where found family and fractured loyalties collide with ancient mysteries. 💬 Take part if you want. Ask. Dig. Connect the dots. The story gives as much as you do. ⚠️ Warning: Characters may break containment (yes, they might reply to you).
