I’m excited to share my new ebook with you:

The Hourglass Paradox: Destiny is Never Linear

Description:

One woman travels back in time to stop the Beast before he takes the world, and time itself, captive.

Josephine Adam never expected time travel to land her in the middle of humanity’s darkest future. The Beast rules the world, his mark, 666, burned into the foreheads of the obedient, his grip on power absolute.

But Josephine has one chance to change it all. Racing back to the year before his rise, she must stop his coming… before prophecy becomes reality.

Time is slipping away, and so is hope.

“He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or forehead, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:16–17, NKJV.”

★★★★★


Josephine Adam journeys between 2025 and 2121, facing the Beast in a battle for humanity’s future. Highly recommended! , Tiffany Townsend, Amazon ★★★★★


A creative take on time travel, used to serve the story rather than science. With nostalgia, gods, demons, and correction missions, it blends suspense with spiritual depth. A satisfying adventure across timelines.Kyle Robertson, Amazon ★★★★☆


Fast-paced and stunningly detailed. A short read with real-world weight and a timely message. Jennifer Surdam, Bookbub ★★★★☆
Bold and imaginative, with vivid description and heartfelt storytelling. Blends Revelation, prophecy, and AI into a timely tale that lingers in the mind. Sudipta Nandi, Goodreads ★★★☆☆


The idea of moving through time to change the future is intriguing, though as a novella I didn’t get to know Josephine as deeply as I wanted. Still, the warnings about a centralized global AI government tied to digital ID felt chilling and timely. Patte Fenske ★★★☆☆

A Time Travel Adventure

Book Chapter, Time Traveller”s Return: Back to 1969

Image Created by AI

Chapter 1 (Prologue)

Some books are written to be read, cherished, and remembered. Others are shaped by the very hands of history, written to stand the test of time. And then there are those few, very few, that are destined to change the course of a life forever.

As I stood before the towering shelves lined with books, a shiver of nostalgia coursed through me. They brought back memories of afternoons spent in this sanctuary of stories, where time seemed to stand still.

It was a stormy afternoon in 2025. The kind of storm that makes Tanjong Malim feel full of shadows, when time seems to slow beneath the heavy clouds. I had returned to my old hometown for a conference and retreat. With time to spare, my feet had wandered almost instinctively back to the place where I had first learned to love stories, the Methodist English School (MES) library.

The library is still there, older and quieter, standing as a testament to the passage of time. Tucked behind newer buildings that had been built over the years, its walls echoed with the whispers of many stories waiting to be rediscovered. Like an unread chapter, longing patiently for someone to return and delve into its secrets.

I took a moment to gather my thoughts before pushing open the heavy wooden door, inhaling the comforting scent of aged paper and polished wood. The librarian barely looked up as I entered, a mix of recognition and indifference in her gaze.

I found myself drawn to a forgotten corner of the reference section. That’s where I saw it. A thick leather-bound book, its cover worn but intact, its spine marked with an image entitles The Wheel of Time.

Its pages whispered secrets long forgotten.

I felt an electric jolt as I cautiously opened it.

And then, in a heartbeat, the library around me dissolved into a tapestry of light.

When I opened my eyes again, everything had transformed.

It was July 20, 1969!

Surrounded by memories and nostalgia, he discover a worn leather-bound book, “The Wheel of Time,” which triggers a transformative experience, transporting them back to July 20, 1969.
