Jack Marshall falls to his death on a winter night-and wakes in Eldriko, a mythic world where memory has weight, shadows whisper, and nothing he once believed about himself holds steady. He didn't choose this place. But Eldriko has chosen him.
Disoriented and far from home, Jack is drawn into a land shaped by quiet magic and the echoes of lives long intertwined. Eldriko remembers what the living forget, and its ancient currents pull him toward people who seem to know more about his arrival than he does himself. Among them are Kendra, whose steady resolve anchors him, and Scott, whose quiet courage becomes a lifeline in a world that feels both strange and strangely familiar.
Whispers of an unraveling realm follow Jack's steps. A Manos seer speaks of a stirring prophecy and a relic known as the Heart of Sheol-an artifact said to steady the balance of a world beginning to fracture. Jack wants only to understand why he survived the fall, yet the deeper he travels into Eldriko's wilds, the more he senses that the world is watching him back.
For Alaster, the Heart is a source of power.
For Eldriko, it is a memory trying to mend itself.
For Jack, it may be the key to belonging in a place he never meant to find.
Waking in Sheol opens The Sheol Prophecies, a mythic, emotionally resonant work of Social Fantasy-where quiet magic lingers in forgotten corners, ordinary people carry extraordinary burdens, and healing becomes its own kind of heroism. Perfect for readers of literary fantasy, mythic journeys, chosen family, and stories that explore identity, courage, and the long walk toward renewal.
