The Chronicles

Defiance of Silence
England, 1381. A peasant girl refuses to kneel — and sparks a revolt that will change history
A reimagining of the 1381 Peasants’ Revolt, where forgotten voices rise against tyranny. Amid burning streets, shattered faith, and whispered prophecies, a young woman defies the silence forced upon her. Through betrayal, courage, and myth, she must decide whether survival means surrender — or leading a revolution.
A River Unrelenting
The Amazon, 1541. Francisco de Orellana’s expedition descends into a river that remembers everything—and forgives nothing.
A literary horror reimagining of the first descent of the Amazon River. As Orellana’s conquistadors venture deeper into an ancient wilderness, they discover the jungle is not just alive—it has a memory older than empires. Every sin leaves a mark. Every death feeds the current. And the river never lets go.
The Orbits of Stars
Hollywood, 1950s. In the golden age of cinema, some secrets are worth killing for.
Behind the glamour of Hollywood’s golden age lurks a web of corruption, blackmail, and murder. When a studio executive’s dark past surfaces, the entire industry’s carefully constructed facade begins to crumble. Power, passion, and paranoia collide in an era where image is everything—and truth is the most dangerous weapon.
Ravens over Ulaid
Ancient Ireland. When the old gods stir, mortals pay the price.
In the mist-shrouded kingdoms of early Ireland, old magic still flows through sacred groves and stone circles. As rival clans clash for dominance, ancient powers awaken—and the line between legend and reality begins to blur. Some wars are fought with swords. Others with spells older than memory.
