A forbidden book. A dangerous pact. A door that should never be opened.

When young scholar Elias breaks into a forgotten monastery in search of lost knowledge, he discovers more than ancient secrets—a living book that writes back, binding him to a secret society of shadow-weavers and a voice that calls itself the First Author.

Each word Elias writes bends reality, giving him power beyond imagination... but at a terrible price. Hunted by monstrous beings and haunted by a Watcher who warns of a fate worse than death, Elias is drawn toward a mysterious Door—one that promises truth, power, and the answers he's been desperate to find.

But every step closer blurs the line between who he is and what the Author wants him to become.
