In the far future, on a fragment world of sand and ruins, a young scavenger stumbles into a war fought with songs, symbols, and the physics of the soul. When slavers breach the veil between realities, he inherits a relic that opens impossible doors—and burdens no young man should have to bear. When the last of his family is taken by the slavers, he must flee to the desert, bargain with flame-spirits, outwit an empire that conquers with engineered bliss, and navigate non-spaces where the dead wait and watch. Wanderers of Ym is far-future science fantasy: noetic networks that feel like heaven, artifacts that rewrite locality, and battles where authority outweighs force. Fans of old world adventure fiction will find haunted temples, living machines, and difficult choices—where deliverance isn't a prophecy but an open question.
