Center of the Universe

Some failures feel final. David is starting to believe his might be.

After a devastating personal loss, David stopped trying. He drifts through life, avoiding risk and purpose, convincing himself that it is too late to live his dreams.

Then he witnesses something impossible.

A battle that should not exist. A prophecy he does not understand. A legendary weapon placed in his hands. Before he can make sense of any of it, he is torn from Earth and thrust into the world of Bantong.

Bantong is not a land of simple heroism. It is wounded, divided, and struggling to survive its own tragedies. The people look at David and see hope. He sees only doubt.

He is not trained. He is not ready. He does not even believe in himself.

But Bantong is dying.

To save it, David must decide whether destiny is something that happens to him or something he chooses. If he can rise, he may become the hero the prophecy demands. If he fails, every world will break.

And this time, running is no longer an option.

Center of the Universe is the first book in the epic series Only the Inevitable, blending science fiction and mythic fantasy in a story about loss, purpose, sacrifice, and the courage to choose who you become.

Perfect for readers who enjoy immersive worlds, emotionally driven character arcs, and high stakes journeys across distant realms.
