Projector
A teen with mind-travel powers faces lethal consequences from bullying.
Gilliver crafts a tense narrative where mental abilities become a double-edged sword. The protagonist’s journey begins with attempts to help others by altering their temporal circumstances. This power quickly becomes a burden as he confronts his own psychological fractures. The introduction of a hostile stepbrother shifts the tone from introspection to survival. The story explores the thin line between justice and murder when one holds absolute control over another’s perception. It is a grim examination of how isolation and abuse can warp moral compasses. The narrative does not offer easy resolutions or clear heroes. Instead, it presents a raw look at the cost of wielding such dangerous gifts in a hostile environment.

⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Gilliver crafts a tense narrative where the protagonist’s journey begins with attempts to help others by altering temporal circumstances, only for this power to become a burden. The introduction of a hostile stepbrother shifts the tone from introspection to survival, forcing the hero to consider lethal purposes for his abilities. The book excels in grounding its sci-fi premise in immediate, visceral experiences, allowing the internal struggle against personal demons to take center stage. It suits adults interested in moral ambiguity and the corruption of benevolent abilities through trauma. Those preferring straightforward hero’s journeys may find the unsettling tone challenging, but fans of psychological horror will appreciate the lack of clear heroes.
