They use the chips to help turn the world into a better place, but little do they know that these chips themselves have a far sinister goal to accomplish on planet Earth, which is revealed over 30 years later. On the very same day their son was to become CEO of their nanochip company, an apocalypse breaks out caused by these chips.

    Standing in the shadows of the massive outdoor amphitheatre, sixteen-year-old Alec Sanmi felt the bass of the crowd's anticipation vibrating through the soles of his trainers. He was the co-founder and co-CEO of Feline Inc., yet his mouth was bone dry right now. Thousands of people were out there, a sea of expectation baying for the boy genius. It sounded less like an audience and more like a hungry beast waiting to be fed. "Stick to the approved bullet points, Alec." Shola's voice cut through the din. At twenty-eight, Feline Inc.'s Head of PR was a master of control, her eyes rapidly scanning a translucent datapad. "No ad-libbing. No reacting to hecklers. You hit the narrative, you trigger the swarm, you smile, and you get off the stage. Understood?" Alec swallowed hard, adjusting the collar of his bespoke jacket. He'd read the press feeds this morning, the articles calling him a corporate dictator in teenage clothing, the blogs questioning how a kid wielded so much unchecked power. "I'm bricking it, Shola," he admitted, his voice barely audible over the chanting outside. "The media's been mad lately. What if they think this is all just crap?" ****************** Alec is a teenage CEO with a target on his back. Cece is a girl searching for a father who vanished into thin air. When Cece's search leads her to the doors of Feline Inc., she expects to find answers. Instead, she finds Alec, and a conspiracy that stretches from the streets of Lagos to the highest halls of power. They couldn't be more different. But to survive a traitor's sinister plan, they must band together. Because in the Age of Bees, the sting is terminal.

    In the neon-washed city of Neo-Lagos, the future isn't guessed-it's calculated. When street-runner Eka Olani stumbles into a vault buried deep beneath the city, she inherits a power that should not exist: the Algorithm of Fate-a sentient system capable of predicting and rewriting future timelines. Marked by its code and hunted by its creators, Eka becomes a rupture in the controlled order of the world. But as rebellion brews and hidden forces begin manipulating reality itself, Eka must confront not just her enemies-but her own fractured reflections. To survive, she'll have to navigate crumbling maps, haunted memories, and a war between what is destined... and what is chosen. Because the Algorithm doesn't just predict the future. It listens. And Eka just gave it a voice. A poetic, electric fusion of Afro-cyberpunk and speculative prophecy, Keeper of the Algorithm of Fate is a lyrical uprising about legacy, identity, and the terrifying freedom of choice.

    In a fractured world where kingdoms have fallen, and darkness reigns, destiny is no longer a birthright-it is a trial by fire. Path of the Lion: Rising Kingdom - Part Two: The Throne introduces the sweeping multiworld saga of power, legacy, and war across the realms of Shiveria. As the shadow of tyranny spreads, destinies begin to collide. In Nubariah, a once-great nation now under the rule of the ruthless Shadow Lords, a young warrior named Moses Ezenwa rises against impossible odds. After defeating his brother for the right to lead, Moses is named heir to the throne-but power comes with a cost. Haunted by fear, visions, and the weight of his father's legacy, he must undergo sacred trials that will determine whether he is worthy to become chieftain... or destined to fail his people. Meanwhile, in the chrome city of Mombasa, Prince Karungu faces a choice that will define his soul. Torn between honor and ambition, he is seduced by promises of power from the very force that destroyed his nation. What begins as grief soon spirals into betrayal-one that could shift the balance of the entire realm. Beyond them, the Shadow Lord Mercius prepares his next move-an all-out assault to eliminate the last remnants of resistance and secure his dominion. With dark magic, political manipulation, and war looming, the fate of Nubariah hangs by a thread. As ancient forces stir and forbidden powers resurface, the line between light and darkness begins to blur. Alliances will be tested. Bloodlines will be challenged. And the path to the throne will demand sacrifice. Because in this world... not every chosen one survives the crown.

    PHASE 2: THE KINDLING STORY 1: THE FIRST FORGING The world is running out of soul. When a young woman from the Beastwood discovers an ancient power buried beneath the earth, she becomes something the world was never meant to awaken. Esi is not a warrior. She is not chosen by prophecy. She is the Kindling - a living conduit capable of reigniting the forgotten SoulForge, the source of the world's lost spiritual energy. Guided by Amara, a scout who sees what others cannot, and protected by Chidi, a hardened survivor of a collapsing world, Esi is drawn deeper into a truth the Dominion has spent centuries burying. Samuel, a disgraced scholar marked by a mysterious Hollow Wound, knows what the Forge demands - and what it consumes. Beneath the Beastwood, seven obsidian stones drain lives to feed a dying system. Above ground, empires hunt power they barely understand. Reigniting the SoulForge will not save the world. It will change it. The First Forging is an adult AfroManga / AfroFuturist anime-inspired fantasy about power without permission, survival without heroism, and the cost of awakening something ancient in a world built on silence.

    In a world of Oracles, every miracle has a receipt. For eight years, Leila M'Karo has been paying hers. As a survivor of the 2017 Kalimba Square Bombing, a tragedy that killed her human friends and shattered her life, her "receipt" comes in the form of blinding migraines and nosebleeds, the agonizing Cost for her rare temporal power. Now, in 2025, her obsessive hunt for answers finally bears fruit. She and her cousin uncover a ghost in the archives: the "Relic Signal," a hidden audio file from the day of the blast. The file proves the bombing wasn't a random act of terror. It was a calculated execution. The discovery plunges Leila into a shadow war she never knew existed, a "60-year secret war" her own grandfather, the legendary peacemaker Elias M'Karo, fought to keep buried. Hunted by a silent, mirrored agent of the shadow-organization "The Ascendants" and forced into a tense partnership with a cold, logical analyst, Leila is trapped in a deadly "cat-and-mouse" game. Her only weapon is the "ghost" images of the past; her power lets her see a power that may not be enough to stop a conspiracy that's been in motion for half a century. Leila is hunting a killer, but the Burden of Truth she's uncovered might be the most dangerous weapon of all.

Because Memphis, Tennessee, isn't named after Egypt. It is Egypt. And the land is remembering.

    By Krystian Simms In a city built on lies, truth is a threat. When the streets of Solara start forgetting-parents losing their children's names, elders slipping into silence, memories unraveling like thread-the world blames disease. But seven chosen souls know the truth: the city's drowning in deception, and the cost is human consciousness itself. Gifted by the Sun God, armed with intrusive memories and righteous fire, witches, prophets, tarot readers, and urban mystics rise up to fight back. They're not warriors-they're truth-tellers. And in a world where too much truth can kill, every revelation comes with a price. Among them: Mercy, a vegan witch who throws the Tower card on a city she refuses to lie for. Zaire, an autistic prophet held hostage by the government for seeing destinies in birth charts. Malik, the child with fire in his veins and visions that could scorch the system. Layla, healing others while mourning the man who called her the wrong name. And the Circle-who refuse to forget, even as the world tries to erase them. But now, something worse is coming. Not erasure. Replacement. They don't just want your mind. They want to rewrite your memory, your truth-your soul. This is not dystopia. This is now. The Memory War is a raw, gritty, spellbinding journey through urban magic, spiritual warfare, neurodivergence, and the power of remembrance. For fans of Octavia Butler, N.K. Jemisin, and those who know that truth still matters-even when it burns.
