THE PROGRAMMER GOD
by Sylas Virell
In the shadow of Jupiter, aboard an isolated orbital lab, a grieving programmer sets a world in motion—one meant to evolve without myth, memory, or gods. But when spiral symmetries emerge in the soil and forgotten voices rise in the wind, he must confront a chilling truth: the simulation isn’t progressing—it’s remembering.
The Programmer God is a haunting, visionary novel of recursion, legacy, and the unseen fingerprints we leave on everything we create. Perfect for fans of Ted Chiang, Stanislaw Lem, and N.K. Jemisin, Sylas Virell’s debut is a lyrical meditation on authorship and entropy, where artificial worlds dream of their makers, and forgetting may be the only form of freedom left.
Prepare to enter Eidolon—where observation is authorship, and even silence remembers.
GOD SAVE THE QUEEN’S ACCOUNTANT
A Satirical Novel by Veronica Winslow
History hiccups in 1837 when a bureaucratic blunder appoints young Karl Marx as Queen Victoria’s Royal Accountant. With ledgers in one hand and ideology in the other, Marx sets out to audit the aristocracy—befuddling courtiers, revolutionizing tea time, and accidentally unionizing the corgis.
As collectivist chaos engulfs the palace, the Duke of Strathclyde plots to topple the crown and replace it with a casino republic—liberté, égalité, baccarat.
God Save the Queen’s Accountant is a riotous alt-Victorian romp, perfect for readers who prefer their revolutions witty, their monarchs bemused, and their scones politically charged.
Remember Me When The Stars Fade
by Aria Wren Holloway
Remember Me When the Stars Fade is a haunting, hope-laced tale of memory, loss, and the quiet revolution of being seen. Seventeen-year-old Elodie Finch bears glowing constellations on her skin—maps to the forgotten and the missing, beginning with the boy she once loved. As she unravels the mystery behind a creeping force called the Silence—an entity that devours memory itself—Elodie must decide what she’s willing to remember, and what she refuses to let fade. For readers who believe grief is a kind of magic, and that naming the lost might just save them, this lyrical YA debut offers a starlit journey into the in-between.
Wanderlight Press is proud to present The Wind in the Tamarisk—Safar’s haunting and elegiac new novel that follows Anissa Ben Tayeb, a Franco-Tunisian botanist, as she returns to the crumbling family villa on the edge of the Sahara. There, in the shadow of vanishing tamarisk groves and half-remembered songs, Anissa must navigate the fractured legacy of a homeland that has always felt just out of reach.
Told in language as spare as it is sensory, Safar’s story is a meditation on belonging, ecological loss, and the quiet revolutions of care. For readers drawn to literary fiction that dares to be contemplative, The Wind in the Tamarisk is not just a novel—it’s an atmosphere, a reckoning, and a return.
Dragon Diaries
by Dennis W. Davis
Dragon Diaries offers an intimate window into one family’s odyssey through a world unraveling—and through a Vietnam transformed by the pandemic. From a ghostly return flight to Da Nang to their tense escape as lockdowns and typhoons converged, Davis captures both the disorientation of a global crisis and the quiet grace that sustains us. Amid quarantines, shuttered cities, and a rising sense of unease, his reflections on freedom, resilience, and love ring true for anyone who lived through those uncertain days.
Woven with vivid detail and emotional honesty, Dragon Diaries is not just a chronicle of life during COVID—it’s a meditation on connection, survival, and the fragile beauty that endures, even in the eye of the storm.
In Diary From a Pandemic: Part One, Dennis W. Davis picks up where Dragon Diaries left off—capturing life in Vietnam between lockdowns, in the liminal spaces of uncertainty and grace. From 39 days shuttered in a Da Nang apartment to family feasts in the rural district of An Lao, Davis charts a path through the pandemic’s quieter moments: villages untouched by time, markets pulsing with cautious hope, and daily life reshaped by invisible borders.
With his signature blend of humor, sensory detail, and emotional candor, Davis invites readers into a world adapting in real time. These are stories of resilience, wonder, and the human capacity to find connection—even as the world keeps its distance.
In Diary From a Pandemic: Part Two, Dennis W. Davis continues his journey through the shifting landscapes of pandemic-era Vietnam. Picking up in the summer of 2020, this volume moves from rooftop sunsets in Da Nang to ferry rides bound for the remote Cham Islands, tracing rare windows of freedom amid global uncertainty. Here, adventure and reflection unfold between outbreaks—each moment sharpened by the knowledge that normalcy is fleeting.
With trademark warmth, wit, and immersive detail, Davis chronicles a world learning to breathe again. These are stories of escape and return, of sea-swept solitude and communal resilience—an ode to the places and people that remind us what it means to live fully, even when the world stands still.
The Superposition of Us
The Age of Abundance
Or, The Last Age of Man
Dennis W. Davis
What does it mean to create alongside a machine that might one day surpass you?
In The Age of Abundance, Dennis W. Davis—court reporter, publisher, former chef—traces his journey as a writer navigating a world where artificial intelligence now listens, writes, and thinks with uncanny fluency. Blending memoir with philosophical inquiry, Davis explores what is gained and lost when creativity is shared with machines that neither sleep nor feel, yet somehow understand.
Drawing from courtrooms, kitchens, and quiet Georgia nights, this deeply personal work asks not just how we’ll live with AI—but how we’ll live with ourselves in a world where authorship, labor, and identity are rapidly evolving.
