Ages of Entanglement, a Novel, is now released!

Samson has lost all hope.

Three decades have passed since a mysterious illness brought on by quantum entanglement suddenly decimated the human population. By harnessing quantum entanglement mankind had tapped into a dangerous power able to alter the very matter of our existence.

Samson long ago gave up searching for his family and now wanders the earth with no purpose and avoiding entanglement with other souls. But then he meets Selene—an orphaned, but strong and independent girl. She sees in him what he has forgotten. They journey together toward a utopian island only rumored to exist. Along the way they meet others also seeking to overcome the obstacles of the age, but in their own way.

Will Samson help Selene to make her way in this dangerous world, and will she help him to find his lost humanity? Or is Samson already too far gone, a relic of the previous age?

The book is a literary novel, sprinkled with post-apocalyptic science fiction. The book is over 67,000 words in length, and it could lead to other novels based in the same created world. Through the story of an individual’s journey through a fallen world, the book explores the spiritual, psychological, and scientific entanglement between humans and entire generations, and if we can truly escape it. It is built on an individual person’s journey, but contains layers of symbolism and dreams.
