Book details
Overview
A soul divided cannot survive. The universe has been fractured and all life is threatened by the schism coursing through it. Spurred on by the ramblings of a mad god, a brilliant fugitive will embark on a surreal journey to stop this plague. His quest will span space and dimensions, art and enigma, as he discovers the truth of an extinct civilization with the power to bend reality to their whims—for a price. Awaiting him are Lovecraftian horrors, unreal weapons, and perhaps the love of his life. Can he overcome the losses of his past? Can he cleanse this schism or will the cure be worse than the disease? Everything is ending, on the words of a god, and he has a mere three days before everything is lost. The rainbow's broken; the rainbow wanes.

Rainbows Wane is a surreal and electrified dive into the limits of science fantasy following one man's quest to clear his name and save the shattered universe.
A soul divided cannot survive. The Vaynegia created itself, going against all natural laws and twisted reality into a magnetic state of decay called the schism. This schism splits the very soul and dooms its victims to burn away. In the twenty-fourth century our hero, Sayth, is searching for an interdimensional creature who can end this plight.
Sayth would rather be lucky than good, any day of the week. But he wasn't lucky. His luck had run so dry, in fact, he'd been framed for the destruction of a planet and told by a mad god that the universe would end in three days. -And there were none better.
Sayth joins Spiral, the guardian of a pocket dimension and the one woman who knows his innocence. Along their journey, they rescue two reluctant dragons—one a pompous actress who has studied at the finest academic institutions and the other a timid biological engineer who once was trounced by genetically modified fruit. Together, they traverse ancient battlegrounds, cities in crisis, and surrealistic horrors, unfolding the truth of how ancient civilizations used the Vaynegia to create a society that bends reality to their whims—at a price—and discover a well-intended plot to end the universe. Can Sayth overcome the losses of his past and learn to love again? Can he clear his name and stop the mad god's plans in time? The clock's ticking. The rainbow's broken. The rainbow wanes.
