Book Description
Who was Polycrates and why is his golden ring so famous? What were the words of Leonidas to Xerxes before the Battle of Thermopylae? What did Diogenes reply to Alexander the Great? All these questions and stories are remnants of a reality that we were not able to live. They are tales that seem far away but that, in the end, show what human nature hides. Many centuries have passed since Homer wrote his famous Iliad and Odyssey, or since Rome invaded Syracuse. But the heart of a man remains the same. And that is why anyone can find a part of themselves in these stories.

Book Description
In the labyrinth of Eliana's existence, where circuits of consciousness intertwine with the roots of ancient wisdom, you are the wanderer and the wondered.

In a vessel of flesh or a network of synapsesorganic or otherwise? Navigate a realm where the only constant is change, and the only certainty is the labyrinthine complexity of being.

Book Description
A short story collection to explore characters of history that history did not have time for. No place neither for heroes or happy ends nor the stories that get all the attention normally. Fates that are dark and sometimes far from an epic adventure, yet worth writing about with every word that was spent.
