About the book "Beyond"

There are powers hidden in all of us.

Tormented by a traumatic childhood incident, seventeen-year-old Ayden goes through life doing his best to forget the ordeal. That is, until one fateful night leaves him plagued with questions, and forces him to realize that his memory is a gateway to powers lurking deep within.
With the help from an erudite mentor and an orphaned girl, he is guided to the remnants of a world obscured by time. While an intrigue unfolds in the shadows and an age-old alliance shatters, Ayden is drawn into a web of betrayal and deception. And as friends turn to foe, he is forced to make the ultimate choice between the feelings in his heart and the loyalty to his kind.

Leave a comment if you like what you read. Then I'll know when I need to upload further chapters.



Don't aim at success--the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself.
— Viktor E. Frankl
