Phantastes: A Mind Eclipse Awakening: A Mythic Adventure in Spiritual Awakening and Self-Mastery

By Donele Sullivan and Rose Angel Publishing

Phantastes: The Mind Eclipse Awakening reimagines George MacDonald's classic fantasy as a breathtaking self-help allegory for the digital age.

When Alex Rivera, a burned-out software engineering student, designs a self-help video game prototype, he never expects to be pulled inside his own creation. Trapped between his cluttered reality and a glowing fantasy world powered by code, Alex must confront illusions, face his shadow-double, and survive quests that mirror his deepest fears. Guided by mystical allies and opposed by his own Dark Superego, Alex discovers that every battle in the game is really a battle within himself.

Blending epic fantasy adventure with gamified self-transformation, this novel carries readers on a mythic journey of awakening where the ultimate victory is not over monsters, but over the lies we tell ourselves. At the heart of the story burns the promise of the Phoenix Liberant-the identity you unlock when you defeat the shadows of self-sabotage and rise renewed.

Fans of Ready Player One, The Alchemist, and mythic allegories will find themselves immersed in a story that is at once thrilling and deeply personal: a guide for every seeker who longs to step out of the shadows and into the light.
