The Disciple of the Aethereals: the Thaumaturge, Book 2

What if even your thoughts weren’t your own?Thaumaturges have long known that humanity lives in an informational ghetto—where thoughts and emotions are streamed in from the outside. People aren’t forced to feel anything; they choose what to amplify and what to discard, guided by fashion, trends, and influencers.But there’s something even more dangerous out there.A galactic torrent—stronger than anything on Terram—is shaping evolution across the stars. Only three Nor-Folkish remain immune to its influence: Aneralt, Friedmund, and Ernärt.As Aneralt witnesses how even the most powerful corporeal and Aethereal beings surrender to the torrent’s will, he decides to act. But thaumaturgy may not help him in the new domain he must enter. His only true ally is the wild fire bound to his earring—alive, defiant, and the last thing standing between him and collapse.To succeed, he’ll need the help of Friedmund, Ernärt, and their wild elements. Even then, it might not be enough.The second book in The Thaumaturge series continues an epic journey through a world shaped by information, elemental will, and the quiet war beneath conscious thought.The Thaumaturge series is a blend of epic fantasy and science fiction. The result of eight years of world-building, it weaves together elements of quantum physics and information technology.
