Entering Verrania
Buy from
When their lives on Earth come to an end, Magdalena and Zacharias awaken in Verrania—a vast new world where no one is born, the chosen are granted a second chance, and the memories of the past survive only in fragments.
Guided by their mysterious godmothers, they begin to uncover a civilisation unlike anything they have ever known. Towering steam-powered cities, soaring airships, clockwork marvels, and nations shaped by politics, industry, and the scars of ancient wars await them in a world rebuilt after devastating AI wars, where digital technology has been banned. Yet beneath its remarkable achievements lies a world divided by ideology, ambition, and old resentments that threaten its fragile peace.
Rich in immersive worldbuilding, unforgettable characters, and thought-provoking questions about identity, redemption, and the enduring conflicts of civilisation, Entering Verrania is the first novel in an epic speculative fantasy saga where the greatest journey begins only after life itself has ended.
