Between silence and laughter, one spark awakens.Elias should have faded with his final heartbeat. Instead, he opens his eyes inside a Vast Mind where predators devour memory, light itself burns away will, and love is pruned into obedience. This is the Silent Harvest: a cosmic ritual that keeps the universe neat, ordered-and enslaved.But Elias is irregular, an errant pulse the harvesters cannot trim. Guided by laughter, scars, and the fragments of a world trying not to forget, he journeys through cities of False Suns, libraries of erased faces, and kingdoms divided by absurd crowns. Alongside Mara and a boy named Lyric, he must confront the forces that feed on connection, memory, and choice-and discover whether imperfection itself can be the seed of freedom.The Silent Harvest is mythic fantasy woven with philosophy, horror, and wonder. A story about what endures when memory is stolen, what laughter means in the face of despair, and how even a cabbage can become sacred. For readers who love Neil Gaiman, C.S. Lewis, or Ursula K. Le Guin, this is a journey into the architecture of control-and the sparks that resist.
