Future Echoes
Some stories refuse to wait.
Every world begins as a whisper.
Some become books.
Some become music.
Some remain hidden for years.
Here you'll find the next fragments of the BADLVCK Archive.
Stories currently being written, imagined, or waiting for their moment to emerge.
Nothing here is guaranteed.
Everything here is possible.
The Broken Song - Book Two of Shadows and Strangers.
The Realms are changing.
After the events of The Fractured Path, Maxen, Kaia, Wisker and the Lamplighters are pulled deeper into the fractures spreading beneath reality itself. Ancient Code stirs, forgotten songs echo through dreams, and something vast watches from behind the veil.
As truths surrounding the Sleeper begin to surface, the line between memory, destiny and nightmare starts to break apart.
The Broken Song is a darker, larger continuation of the Shadows and Strangers saga — a surreal fantasy journey of fractured worlds, living crystals, strange companionships, and the quiet things that survive at the end of creation.
The path continues in JULY 26 2026
A Series of Laws
The Law of Storms
From the Vaults of BADLVCK PRESS.
In a world ruled by ancient forces known as the Laws, masked warriors are trained high within a mountain monastery overlooking a vast neon-lit city below. There, balance is treated like doctrine, power comes at a cost, and every mask reshapes the person beneath it.
When a child is born under impossible circumstances during a catastrophic storm, something in the world shifts. As he grows, old certainties begin to fracture, not just within the monastery, but within the Laws themselves.
Blending grounded epic fantasy with philosophical undertones, The Law of Storms is a story about consequence, identity, control, and the dangerous space that exists between order and change. A world of storms, masks, impossible gifts, and realities that do not always behave the way they should.
This work is already in motion. It will walk the crooked path beyond Shadows and Strangers, and yet coil back into the same fractures. A series apart - but bound by the same Verse.
We planned this to release mid 2026 - but we made the decision to concentrate on ‘The Broken Song’ first. We expect this book to be released closer to the end of the year 26.
BADLVCK’s Almost Adventurers
Another world in the BADLVCK-Verse, yet this one has a lighter side.
Set in a fantasy land, where the crooked dice don’t quite land how you think they will.
Almost Adventurers is a fantasy novel about miscalculations, accidental bravery, and what happens when the world doesn’t care about your intentions. It’s fast, funny, a little heartbreaking, and very aware that surviving is sometimes more impressive than winning.
Fantasy-first. Character-driven.
No chosen ones. No clean victories.
Just people doing their best—badly—and walking forward anyway.
Coming soon.
