The Spark

When the Moon shattered, the world broke with it.

Centuries later, fragments of its ruin still circle the Earth, a scarred world where memory bends and the future echoes backward. Civilizations have fallen, Furborne kingdoms rise, and in the shadows of old empires, relics of impossible design still hum with power.

Faber, a weary collector of these relics, and Mereya, his silent companion, discover a device that is more than machine. The Ciliax holds something alive, something that whispers across cycles of time. To protect it is to guard a secret that could end or remake the world. To lose it is to surrender the last spark of hope.

Pursued by cults and the fractured remnants of a long-forgotten power, Faber and Mereya must decide whether the weight of survival is worth carrying-or if the soul of the world should be allowed to burn.

The Spark is the opening volume of the Cryptex Cycle, part of the mythic Shattered Moon Cycle-a dark, visionary blend of science fiction, philosophy, and cosmic mystery. For readers of speculative and mythic sci-fi, it is a story of ruin, memory, and the fragile light that endures.
