In a universe where magic has been artificially divided for centuries, some truths are too dangerous to remember—and some bonds too powerful to break.
The Convergence: Broken Magic thrusts readers into a galaxy where Federation Enforcer Samantha Reed discovers that everything she’s been taught about magic, reality, and her own past might be an elaborate lie. When she’s ordered to eliminate Connor Blake, a brilliant Academy dropout turned rebel leader, she expects a routine mission. Instead, she finds herself questioning the very foundations of the civilization she’s sworn to protect. As reality itself begins to fracture around them, Samantha and Connor must confront not only their shared history but the possibility that their connection runs deeper than memory—and that the Federation’s greatest enemy might be the truth itself.
This isn’t just another space opera with magical elements. I’ve woven together hard science fiction concepts with innovative magical systems, creating a universe where the laws of physics bend to accommodate powers that were never meant to be separated. The result is a story that explores themes of institutional control, the price of unity, and the courage required to heal what others have broken. As someone who spent my days innovating in technology, I’m fascinated by the question of what happens when we push systems beyond their intended limits—whether those systems are technological or magical.
Excerpt from The Convergence: Broken Magic
Prologue: The Price of Power
Maria Smith’s hands shook as golden light formed around her fingers. Through the Vigilant’s window, darkness twisted against the stars. Wrong darkness. Hungry darkness. Not the familiar empty space she knew.
“Energy readings are off the charts.” She grabbed the control panel to steady herself. The screens around her flickered as the ship’s magic systems fought against whatever was out there. “This isn’t natural.”
Captain James Foster gripped his chair. “Show me.”
Maria pressed her palm to the controls. Golden light flowed from her hands into the ship—Luminor magic looking for connection. The ship’s power responded like it remembered something. She’d read stories about old mages whose magic worked differently than today’s rules allowed. But those were just stories. Right?
A display appeared in the air: shadow and light twisted together in patterns that broke apart and rebuilt themselves.
“Tenebral signatures detected,” the ship’s computer announced. “Warning: containment protocols failing.”
The darkness pushed against the ship’s hull, searching. Maria felt it through her link to the ship’s systems—power older than anything they understood. Her golden energy shields began to crack.
“Full power to shields,” Foster ordered. “Contact Federation Command—”
The window exploded.
Shadow poured through the hole, forming into thick tentacles that reached for the crew.
Maria felt something impossible—her golden shields connecting with the dark energy. Like two pieces of something broken, trying to come back together. It reminded her of stories about Haven Prime, where opposite magics had joined to fix broken reality.
Maria threw up a wall of golden light. The darkness hit it hard. She felt the blow through her whole body.
“Get down!” She poured more power into her shield while Foster hit emergency buttons. Around them, other crew members ran to their stations, their magic blazing.
The shadows stopped and pulled back. In their depths, Maria saw something that froze her blood. The chaos had patterns. Order in the madness. This wasn’t random Tenebral energy.
It was thinking.
