The Hollow Tube
ADHARA BOOK ONE
Crafting Worlds
UNLEASHING IMAGINATION
Welcome
I've been writing stories since I was five. Mostly for myself. A few shared with others. It's now time to share them with the world.
Adhara Book One: The Hollow Tube, is the first novel of a trilogy.
My journey chasing hollow tubes began the moment I belly-crawled under a rusted chain barrier with a skull-and-crossbones sign that read: "DO NOT ENTER!"

What I found in the darkness of the underworld labyrinth as a young boy was a stark sense of self-preservation. And I been trying to find myself ever since.
Adhara Book One: The Hollow Tube is a mesmerizing tale that intricately weaves the horrors of war with elements of fantasy, creating a gripping narrative that is both heart-wrenching and enchanting. From the very first pages, I was drawn into the life of young Adhara, whose portrayal by the author is filled with a depth that resonates…
This book’s dual perspective, offered through the eyes of Adhara and a boy named Teddy, is compelling. Each character carries burdens shaped by past trauma. The way their paths intertwine is not just a narrative device; it feels like a cosmic connection destined to unfold into conjoining themes of fate and survival…
