A love that defies worlds. A sacrifice that saves them. A myth that becomes eternal.
In Between Two Realms, Angelo Di Benedetto masterfully blends reality, myth, and science into a breathtaking tale of love, sacrifice, and cosmic balance. Set against the backdrop of Istanbul-a city teeming with secrets, history, and whispers of the divine-this Mythorealism novel explores the fragile boundary between the seen and the unseen, the mortal and the eternal.
When Alara Kaya, a historian obsessed with the forgotten myths of Istanbul, uncovers an ancient pendant beneath the Basilica Cistern, her life is forever altered. The artifact hums with a resonance beyond her understanding, a sound that ripples through water, stone, and her very soul. The pendant pulls her into the Liminal Space, a realm between worlds where glowing rivers of golden Threads weave existence together.
There, Alara meets Riven, a Keeper of Balance tasked with maintaining the harmony of the Threads that bind all realities. Their connection is instant and undeniable, yet it disrupts the very fabric of existence. Together, they uncover a truth that could shatter both their worlds-a fragile balance frayed by love, longing, and destiny.
As time distorts, worlds bleed into one another, and ancient shadows rise to claim what was torn apart, Alara and Riven must confront the ultimate choice: sacrifice everything to restore the Threads or let their love unravel creation itself.
A Genre-Bending Journey
Steeped in the traditions of magical realism yet elevated by modern science and mythological depth, Between Two Realms introduces readers to Mythorealism-a genre that weaves quantum theory with celestial folklore, where the fantastical and scientific merge seamlessly.
For Lovers of Myths, Science, and Timeless Love Stories
Perfect for fans of Madeline Miller's Circe and Neil Gaiman's The Ocean at the End of the Lane, this novel invites readers to lose themselves in an epic that is both intimate and vast, tender and cosmic.
Praise for Between Two Realms:
A dazzling, poetic exploration of love's power to bridge the unbridgeable. Angelo Di Benedetto has crafted a new myth for our time.
