Publisher's Synopsis
What if you weren't real? What if everything you thought, every choice you made, every breath you took-was never truly yours?
In the dense solitude of an Oregon forest, a man awakens with no memory of how he got there. Beside him lies a worn leather journal, filled with pages of a story he doesn't remember writing. A story of gods and men, of cosmic renewal and existential destruction. A story that seems to know him better than he knows himself.
As he reads, the lines between reality and fiction begin to blur. The pages describe impossible events, yet he recalls them like memories-his own, or someone else's. The deeper he delves, the more the world unravels around him, shifting and distorting, bending to the will of something unseen.
Then, a terrifying revelation: he is not the writer. He is the story.
Trapped in a narrative he cannot control, haunted by words that rewrite themselves, he is pursued by a force that lurks between the pages-watching, waiting, writing. His past is ink. His future is already decided. And the ending? It has been written.
And yet, the book turns another page.
A chilling descent into the fragility of self and the horror of reality itself, this novel is a labyrinth of existential dread, a waking nightmare where the act of reading becomes a trap and the writer is merely another character in the hands of something greater.
