Abstract of the book "Gathering the Shards"
When the illusion shatters, all you have left are fragments. The choice is yours — throw them away and build a new life, or gather them up and glue them back together. I wanted so much to create something new, but fate kept destroying everything. And now I have fragments in my hands again. Will I be able to piece together my former life? Or will I remain forever just a part of an illusion?

I hope it will reveal what secret and very private project Joel has. Also, perhaps, the author will uncover the stories of other, possibly underrated, characters. I also want to find out if everything will be okay with Millie and Ian, or if Mills (?) will get into some trouble again. Anddddd... Maybe someone will even get married. In short, I'm really looking forward to it )))) Inspiration to the author ) . You write very captivating stories. Thank you

marina-kubar28.08.2025, 17:01Actually, I don't usually like post-apocalypse, but I read your story with pleasure, thank you for the interesting plot.
arina-shablinska14.05.2025, 21:13Very interesting book!) By the way, I'm expecting that moment when Montana met Joel (or whatever his name is) near those strange doors, that he's actually looking for a way to save his daughter Camilla)))
xristina-xolod06.02.2025, 02:14Oh, this is definitely going to be an emotional rollercoaster! Already from the blurb, you can feel that the story will be about pain, loss, and maybe a second chance. Those lines: *"And here in my hands are fragments again"* – they just hit right in the heart! How do you move on when the world you so carefully built shatters once more? Can something new be created from the fragments, or will you have to accept that the past will remain just a memory?.. And then there’s this connection to the previous book "The Illusion Cracked" – if anyone has read the first part, they probably won’t be able to pass by the continuation! It feels like it’s going to hurt, but also be very deep and touching. I’m already mentally preparing myself because I know it’s going to tear my soul apart!

pavlo-tulskii25.12.2022, 16:10Added both the first one and this one to my library)
pavlo-tulskii25.12.2022, 16:08Wow! From the first pages, it already looks very cool! I'm intrigued by the backstory) There's one funny note - I got the feeling that the author is a woman when I came across the detailed description of women's clothing))) But, honestly, this is by no means criticism!)
