The Towers of Elysium Series
What if reality was just the first layer of the trap?
You wake up every morning. You go to work. You love. You suffer. You dream of something more.
But what if “more” was already here… and you just forgot?
The Towers of Elysium is a sci-fi saga that doesn’t play by the rules. It’s part cosmic horror, part love story, part existential joke told by a universe that might be laughing at all of us. Across three novels, you’ll follow Stephen—a man, a god, a prisoner, a dreamer—as he builds a future, loses everything, and fights to remember why any of it mattered in the first place.
This isn’t a series about saving the world.
It’s about realizing the world was never yours to save.
The Books
Elysium Rising
What if your dreams could build the future… and destroy it?
A nameless tech visionary unlocks the Eternal Engine, a force stolen from dreams that bends matter and rewrites existence. Humanity transcends overnight: endless energy, instant replication, interstellar travel.
Then come The Pointers.
Silent figures appearing across the world, motionless and unnerving, each one pointing skyward. Their arrival fractures belief and signals that something older than thought itself has awakened.
Genius becomes torment. Creation turns to ruin. And the question isn’t how far we can go… but how much of us will survive the leap.
Blending the cerebral twists of Inception, the irreverent wit of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and the creeping dread of Insidious.

Elysium Fallen
A brutal kick to the head… and suddenly, you remember dying a thousand times.
Sixteen-year-old Stephen’s reality shatters, flooding him with memories of a dying old man and a forgotten cosmic war. His world is a prison. His abusive father is a mask for the god who built it. His friends are being erased from existence.
Haunted by visions of his own countless deaths, Stephen must trust a mysterious journal that writes itself and a girl who might be a demon sent to destroy him. To break the cycle of torment, he must reclaim a name he doesn’t remember and confront the divine jailer in a battle that could unmake reality itself.
In a universe where love is a liability and memory is a weapon, freedom comes at a cost.

Escape from Elysium
Two years unemployed. A wife who feels scripted. And a reality that’s starting to glitch.
Stephen’s life is a waking nightmare. His days blur into a “Groundhog Hell” of rejection letters and cold coffee. His depression is pushing him to the edge… but his loops aren’t just psychological. They’re code.
When an impossible message from a forgotten friend breaks through the static, Stephen learns the horrifying truth: his bleak reality is Etheris, a cosmic prison he helped build to contain a soul-devouring entity named Yaldabaoth. He is not Stephen, but Aspolin—a god-like being trapped in a system powered by the one thing he was forced to sacrifice: his eternal love for his lost twin flame, Jamie.
Now the prison is failing. The resets are corrupting. Hunted by a wife who is more construct than human and guided by forgotten gods and cosmic horrors, Stephen must descend to the substrate of reality and confront the blind god Azathoth.
To save his family, he must free the love that holds the prison together. But if the battery dies, the cage opens… and the soul-devouring shepherd will be unleashed upon all of creation.
Who This Series Is For
You, if you’ve ever felt like something was off.
If you’ve loved Inception, The OA, Dark, or The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
If you want your sci-fi with teeth… and a sense of humor about the apocalypse.
If you’re tired of heroes who always win and villains who always lose, and you’d rather see what happens when the lines blur so much you can’t tell which one you’re rooting for.
This series isn’t here to comfort you. It’s here to make you question what “you” even means.
Start Your Descent
The first book is waiting. The Pointers are already here. And somewhere, in a prison you can’t see, a god is waking up.
The only question left is: are you?
Does God Exist?
