Echoes of the Veil

Michael Zmuda

In the deep forests of Veridia, Amelia is an outcast, cursed with visions of a sterile, metallic world that haunts the edges of her reality. In the perfect, logical city of the Axiom, Sergeant Owen Howard is an elite soldier, tasked with sterilizing the chaotic ‘errors’ that bleed into his world—anomalies from a reality he is sworn to erase. When a catastrophic military experiment shatters the barrier between their realities, Owen is the sole survivor, stranded in the vibrant, impossible world he was trained to destroy. He is rescued by Amelia, the very woman whose ‘madness’ allows her to see the truth, and they must form a desperate alliance. She is a master of the world’s hidden magic; he is a weapon of cold, hard logic. Now, they are hunted. In Veridia, a fanatical lord leads a witch hunt, determined to see Amelia burn at the pyre. From the Axiom, a silent black-ops team arrives with a single, chilling directive: terminate the rogue agent Owen and sanitize his mistake by eliminating all witnesses. Caught between zealots and ghosts, their only hope for survival lies in trusting the one person they were taught to see as the enemy. But the true threat is far greater than any army. Their clashing realities are two halves of a sundered world, a prison built to contain a cosmic horror that devours existence. With every battle, the prison walls crack further, and an ancient hunger begins to stir. Amelia’s curse may be a beacon guiding the monster to their door… or it may be the one weapon that can stop the end of everything. Duration - 8h 24m. Author - Michael Zmuda. Narrator - Michael Zmuda.
