My New Book

Lyriah’s Memory — A forgotten name. A city buried in silence. A truth the gods feared.

Cael is a relic hunter, a wanderer with a scarred heart and a sharp tongue, chasing stories the world tried to forget. But when he hears a forbidden name — Vondergran — whispered in a crumbling tavern, he uncovers more than ancient ruins. He unearths her.

Lyriah.

Once the Voice of a civilization built on silence, Lyriah dared to question the gods — and paid the price. Burned alive, erased from memory, her soul lingers, bound to the ruins by sorrow, rage... and something deeper.

Drawn into visions not his own, Cael begins to lose the boundary between past and present, truth and madness. With the help of an unlikely companion — a chaotic boy named Genn — he must uncover Lyriah’s true name before the order that buried her returns to finish the job.

But remembering has a cost.

And some memories burn.

A lyrical dark fantasy blending emotional depth, ancient mysteries, and divine betrayal, Lyriah’s Memory is a haunting journey through forgotten temples, cracked mirrors, and the fragile line between voice and silence.Memory of Lyriah
