The Epoch Rite of Passage Trilogy: A Near-Future Dystopian Thriller
As 2026 started…
And the Land of the Free started looking more and more like a police state, I kept asking myself:
Why is this happening?
How do we get through this?
How does it end?
This trilogy explores an answer to those questions.

Looking for something to read while you wait?
The Epoch Rite of Passage trilogy was born from my exploration of the collective, three-stage “Rite of Passage” we all seem to be going through. I’ve curated a list of books that speak to these three stages. It’s a list of essential reads I’m calling The Sovereignty Library. If you’re ready—or want to be ready—to move beyond the chaos and explore the themes that can help us build a new future, I’d love to share it with you.
