Imagine you knew the answer to everything.
For every disaster, every war, every sorrow still to come.
Imagine you knew exactly what to do – and the price would be giving up everything that makes you a good person. Your principles. Your morals. The line you never wanted to cross.
Imagine you did it anyway.
People would hate you for it. They would hunt you, relentlessly, mercilessly, for deeds that look from the outside like the work of a monster. And you couldn’t explain it to anyone – not without destroying everything you did it for.
That is exactly who the Korvaan are.
Across three timelines, this story follows how a mission to Mars fails, how a girl appears who can do more than anyone suspects, and how it all condenses into a plan older than any war.
How far would you go if you knew it would work?

In 2005 I had an idea. It stayed with me and grew year after year until it had become a whole world: two suns, alien peoples, a time that repeats itself. In 2022 I wrote the first sentence.
By day I’m an adult educator in Hanover. In my head, spaceships fly, alien councils convene, and a woman remembers who she really is.

As a kid I loved Christopher Reeve’s Superman. His Kryptonian name was Kal-El. Decades later, in Sanskrit, I came across the word Vṛṇ: to give joy, to delight.

You know the Korvaan now. Time to meet the other side.
With KORVAAN you met the group that risks everything and is hated for it. In ZYKLUS, the other side opens up: the Renaka, an ancient people with their own history, their own rules, and allies humanity has known nothing about until now.
Humans and Renaka begin to work together. But the Korvaan strike. Fast, precise, brutal. Every bit of help meant to reach Earth becomes a target. And to the Renaka, they remain the thorn that can never be pulled.
And of course you’ll find out what happens next to everyone you know from Book 1.
Everyone who enters this world leaves traces. Leave yours. Tell me which character won’t let you go, what theory you have, or what made you angry. That’s exactly what I want to know.
