Overview

The Hollow King is a dark epic fantasy horror novel that unfolds in a decaying world abandoned by its gods, where memory itself becomes a weapon and shadows devour truth. At its core is Elyas Varin, a haunted exile branded by the Hollow King-a spectral monarch whose throne remains empty, yet whose presence poisons the land. Banished beyond the Grey Wall, Elyas wanders through ghost-infested ruins and bleeding forests, hunted by nightmares that wear his face. His only companions are a cursed knight named Caldus Thorne-part man, part machine-and a voice inside his head that may be prophecy or madness. As he travels deeper into the Hollow King's domain, reality fractures: time loops, memories betray him, and dreams bleed into waking. At the center of this dying world lies the Black Canticle, a cursed book written in blood and memory, which sees all who read it. It brands Elyas with a spiraled sigil that burns beneath his skin, whispering secrets that were never meant to be known. Each revelation peels away Elyas's identity, twisting his fate closer to that of the Hollow King himself. Haunted by the memory of Dorinnia-the archivist he loved and destroyed-Elyas must navigate shifting landscapes of horror: forests that speak in the voices of the dead, cities lost to memory, and cathedrals that breathe. He is hunted by shadow-creatures made from forgotten names and tempted by visions of a golden, perfected self-a version of Elyas who has embraced the throne of bone. As the world crumbles and prophecy unravels, Elyas must confront a terrible truth: the Hollow King is not a separate being but a reflection-an echo of everything he could become. The final battle is not against an enemy but against fate, memory, and the seductive pull of despair. Will he take the Hollow Crown and rule a world of ruin, or destroy the last force holding reality together? In this world, even damnation offers a choice. The Hollow King is a surreal, poetic descent into grief, guilt, and godhood-where the dead don't rest, time forgets itself, and even the sky bleeds. A tale for readers who crave deep psychological horror woven into a vast, mythic world where memory is the most dangerous magic of all.
