Operation Forgotten Spire
|
Grounded Dystopian Sci-Fi
In a world where history has been erased, one woman holds the key to the truth—if she can survive long enough to share it. After a global cataclysm wipes the slate clean, erasing centuries of culture, knowledge, and identity, the surviving civilization clings to a fabricated past designed by the ruling Unity Council. Dr. Vivian Calloway—a devoted historian—has spent years crafting the official narrative, innocently building the myths her government demands. But when a doomed field mission uncovers fragments of forbidden truth, the illusion begins to crack. As her curiosity deepens into quiet rebellion, Vivian must choose: disappear into the wilderness, or risk everything to resurrect the past. Now marked for execution, she must dismantle the very lies she helped build to convince her would-be executioner to turn against the regime. What follows is a psychological cat-and-mouse game—a battle of wits and willpower in a world where memory is weaponized and truth itself is treason.

Zulu Company: A Forgotten Spire Novel
|
Action/Military Thriller
Blaine Hawke thought the hardest battle would be against the enemy—until loyalty to the wrong cause made him question everything. He trained beside them. He bled beside them. He would have died for them. But when the Unity demands blind obedience, Blaine Hawke and his closest friends from training make different choices. Some stay loyal to the system. Others dare to resist. Suddenly, the family forged in fire is shattered, and brothers-in-arms become rivals on the battlefield. As the rebellion to Unity’s complete control simmers, Hawke must face the unthinkable: a former lover standing in his sights, and the realization that the greatest war isn’t between Unity and rebellion—it’s inside his own heart. Gritty, emotional, and relentlessly human, Zulu Company explores the cost of friendship when ideology divides—and what it truly means to fight for freedom.
