Embrace Inverse Vibrations is a book about many things; but at its heart, it's an earnest search for a sense of purpose and connection in this big and baffling world. Humans have a longstanding tradition of turning to the "power of myth" - and in that spirit, the book is meant as a modern mythology that explores pressing questions about life, death, love, and our collective evolution. Every one of us is born; and every one of us will die. We will love; we will suffer. We will struggle; and we will triumph.

Embrace Inverse Vibrations is a book about many things; but at its heart, it's an earnest search for a sense of purpose and connection in this big and baffling world. Humans have a longstanding tradition of turning to the "power of myth" - and in that spirit, the book is meant as a modern mythology that explores pressing questions about life, death, love, and our collective evolution. Every one of us is born; and every one of us will die. We will love; we will suffer. We will struggle; and we will triumph. Most of that is guaranteed, but exactly how much, how often, and in what order are open questions. By the end, we can only hope that there was something that made it all worth it. Rather than presume to have all the answers, the story is intended solely as a tool for us to keep asking some of the questions that matter most. Who are we? Why are we here? What does it mean to be alive? And to die? What is an individual? A society? What could they be? How can we ensure that cooperation triumphs over conflict? How should we engage with the broader world around us? Where do we come from? And where are we going? What is the fabled Meaning of Life? Let's try to find out. ------- From the Back Cover ------- A man with no name, memories, or emotions awakens on the shore of a bay, far to the north of Limbus. His purpose is much the same as our own, should we dare undertake it: to make sense of this often-senseless world. When serendipity frees him from the cycles of banality, it sends him hurtling down an unknown path into darkness, and the man has little choice but to start making choices. He meets people and creatures, both strange and yet entirely familiar; and they steer him to actions, both for good and for ill. The wise words of another guide him on, and when he learns of the author, it proves to be the most surprising insight of them all. The suns rise and set while the moons wax and wane Things will keep changing but still stay just the same From the dust of the atmosphere, you have appeared Fear not this kind fact, which your kind tends to fear "An imaginative, thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be truly alive." - Kirkus Reviews "Embrace Inverse Vibrations is a science fiction odyssey about how all life is connected, and about the consequences of forgetting that fact." - Foreword Clarion Reviews "The book asks big questions and provides even bigger answers, offering enlightening and meaningful guidance for life..." - IndieReader
