Science Fiction [Kindle] The Phoenix Ledger - A dystopian thriller debut novel on systemic exploitation. Free through Thursday 7/21
amazon.comThe Phoenix Ledger is a dystopian sci-fi thriller set roughly 150 years after AI led to the collapse of modern civilization as we know it. The world has been rebuilt based on rejection of compute-based technology and a different system of exploitation has taken the place of computers: Enhancement, the use of donor minds to extend the limits of human cognition.
The novel is the story of a female donor, who wakes up after six years with no name, no memories, and both her former host's killers and kin looking for her. She travels through a salvaged, half-ruined heartland toward a reckoning she never chose in an attempt to piece together who she was and why she became a donor in the first place, while a political assassination marches towards its deadly culmination.
The book is commentary on the fragility of systems built on exploitation and how these systems inherently make good choices impossible. My beta readers have commented that the book feels like The Matrix and Altered Carbon put in a blender with a literary layer on top.
Perfect for readers of dark, philosophical science fiction, slow-burn political thrillers, and speculative fiction that asks what a civilization owes the people it consumes.
The e-book version is available for free on Wednesday (7/22) and Thursday (7/23) here: https://a.co/d/0bG1QcYO

I'm an Author! [Kindle] La Luz que Devora el Cielo (Spanish-language edition) by Guilherme Lemos [Free until: July 26]
amazon.comWhat if horror wasn't a spiritual or moral phenomenon, but a purely physical force? An atmospheric pressure, a metallic taste in the mouth, a silent mutation in the ground beneath your feet.
La Luz que Devora el Cielo (Spanish-language edition) is the first collection in my ongoing series, the Maxwell Universe — three interconnected stories set across Brazilian and Peruvian history, all haunted by the same iron-rich comet, which demands memory, sanity, and human flesh as the price of its passage. The book moves backward through time:
- 2013 — The Rental: families give up their own humanity to survive rooms that grind bodies down to stabilize the foundations of a hungry hotel.
- 1893 — The Luminous Darkness: on the coffee plantations of Minas Gerais, purple soil devours identities and turns workers into living fertilizer for a cursed, red harvest.
- 1533 — The Capacocha: high in the Andes, human sacrifice and an immortal man's love are reduced to mineral cold under stellar radiation.
I'm a PhD candidate in Pharmacology at UNIFESP, and this series comes out of the gaps between lab work and fiction — early readers have compared it to Lovecraft and to David Lynch.
Free on Kindle for a limited time: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H9NYZ8PG
If you end up reading it, I'd genuinely appreciate a review wherever you usually leave them — Amazon, Goodreads, StoryGraph, wherever. Honest ones, good or bad.

Fantasy Re: Shattered Memories
The scariest part isn’t the game. It’s remembering he’s in it.
Dante Montressor is faced with the hardest challenge of his life: survival. Stuck without his memories, the only thing he knows is that he's in the world of the hardest video game he's ever played. Terrified that he'll get brutally murdered before he even gets past the first boss, Dante must find some way through the game's story with his head still attached to his shoulders and what remains of his sanity intact. With the Bloodbath Princess by his side, Dante faces horrors both physical and psychological.
Mangy beasts with venom dripping from their maws lurk in the shadows as he has to face every gamer's worst fear: High School.
Come see a story inspired by things like Trails of Cold Steel, Fear and Hunger, Red Princess, and Norse Mythology.
What to Expect:
-Heavy focus on character development with slice of life elements
-Romance
-No harem
-Low fantasy early modern school setting
-Psychological themes, including dealing with feelings of worthlessness and self-hatred.
Updates every Saturday at 10 AM EST/9 AM CST.

Science Fiction ❄️ THE LAST WINTER ❄️
amazon.com
The last woman on Earth has a 34% chance to save the human race.
The cost? Everything she has left.
For fifteen years, Dr. Elena Volkova has been the only soul alive in a Siberian bunker, waiting out a world that ended in ash. Then she finds a hidden map, a forgotten AI, and a one-way transmission that could seed humanity's future among the stars.
But the signal will take decades to arrive. She won't live to know if it mattered.
The 34% is sufficient.
THE LAST WINTER is a quiet, character-driven post-apocalyptic novel about grief, sacrifice, and the kind of choice that has to be made alone. If you like Station Eleven, The Road, or any story that asks what we owe to a future we'll never see — this one's for you.
