SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE THE WORLD TOOK A WRONG TURN … WHAT IF IT DID?

Read the Amazon bestseller about facing the constant anxieties of the twenty-first century, the thin line that separates comfort from chaos, and the role fate plays in our lives. Controversial when it was first released, Branches accurately predicted much of the dystopian reality playing out in America today. It’s perfect for readers of mind-bending books like Dark Matter and The Midnight Library.

For one man, the past few years have been a downward spiral. A series of unexplained seizures. The sudden loss of his mother. The rise of a fascist leader and a successful coup to retain power—a nightmare that unfolds through endless doomscrolling online and grows worse by the day. But there's a way out.

Explore alternate realities and the paths not taken in this thought-provoking novel about a man who discovers he’s living in the wrong timeline and seeks to escape a dystopian life that readers will find eerily familiar. Take a trip through alternate presents that could soon become our future. And find an answer to the biggest question of all: what matters most in a world that's spinning out of control?

MAROONED BEYOND THE EDGE OF CIVILIZATION
Deserted on a lawless backwater by his former employer, Terson Reilly faces stark choices: become mercenary cannon fodder when his money runs out, buy passage aboard another shady ship and hope the crew doesn’t cut his throat, or help the grifter who got him grounded in the first place find a treasure-laden derelict. The latter choice appears the lesser of three evils.
It would have been better for everyone if they hadn’t found it.
