The first of seven fragments from my forthcoming novel is now unveiled. This is the opening of the book. #July18Codex View article →

Some secrets are not meant to be found. Oliver Battolo just unlocked a hundred million of them. His father's quest is over, but a new, more dangerous one has just begun. Stalked by relentless enemies and haunted by a seductive entity in his visions, Oliver's inheritance is a curse that is blurring the line between reality and hallucination. The only way forward is to embrace the madness, following a trail of forgotten art to a place where the world is thin and the past is not dead. There, on July 18th, a fated appointment promises either enlightenment... or destruction.

The only aim I aspire to is the rebellious union of opposites

ATHathy (noun) 1. Pronunciation: /ˈāˌt͟hæθē/ 2. Definition: A peculiar state of emotional flatline experienced when Bitcoin reaches an all‑time high yet evokes zero excitement, awe, or panic - often due to overexposure, burnout, or having been through too many “this time it’s different” cycles. 3. Usage: “When BTC hit $123k, everyone screamed - except Jamie, who just scrolled past the chart in a haze of ATHathy.” 4. Symptoms: • Shrugging at parabolic charts • Saying “Wake me when it’s $1M” unironically • Immediate focus shift to building, not price 5. Opposite: ATH‑phoria
