RA: The Old Ways (Book One)
by Sir Hemlock
The gods are not myths.
They are inheritance.
Michal has always felt different, too aware, too isolated, too disconnected from the world around him. High school is just something to survive. Teachers don't understand him. Friends don't exist. And the future feels like a dead end.
Until the day everything breaks.
Suddenly, Michal can hear thoughts that aren't his own. Objects move when he isn't touching them. Storms respond to his emotions. And dreams begin showing him events before they happen.
What starts as confusion becomes something far more dangerous: Michal is a host for an ancient god.
Bound to Ra, the Egyptian sun god, Michal is thrust into a hidden world where awakened teenagers carry divine power, secret organizations hunt them, and the old balance between gods and humanity is collapsing. Alongside Samantha, another awakened teen with powers of her own, Michal is forced to abandon his old life and learn the old ways: forgotten teachings meant to keep gods and humans from destroying each other.
But not everyone believes in balance.
As factions rise among the awakened, one question threatens to tear the world apart:
Should those with godlike power protect humanity... or rule it?
Fast-paced, myth-infused, and emotionally grounded, RA: The Old Ways launches a new fantasy series about destiny, identity, and the cost of carrying power older than civilization itself.
