The Fractured Earth

By Philip Stengel

When the Los Alamos Quantum Array fractures reality, Dr. Eli Vasquez becomes the epicenter of a multiversal collapse.

In a desperate attempt to solve the global energy crisis, physicist Eli Vasquez activates the Chronos Pulse-a quantum experiment meant to bridge probabilities. Instead, it shatters spacetime. Now, Eli finds himself hunted across broken realities by twisted versions of himself: a warlord, an idealist, and a ruthless visionary. Each believes they alone can control the chaos.

But something worse has emerged from the fracture-a shapeshifting entity born of Eli's guilt, called the Shardwraith. With reality dissolving and timelines bleeding together, Eli and neuroscientist Mira Chen must race across collapsing worlds to recover the shards of the Array and confront the consequences of playing god.

From the burning labs of New Mexico to dystopian cityscapes and alien forests, The Fractured Earth is a genre-defying sci-fi thriller that explores identity, ambition, and the price of redemption. Fans of Dark, Annihilation, and The Three-Body Problem will find themselves swept into a relentless, mind-bending journey through guilt, power, and fractured selfhood.
