Glowing Ambition (Returnity) Paperback – April 3, 2025
Purchase options and add-ons
Ambition glows brightest when the world begins to rot.
Barron Alarie was meant to inherit the future. Instead, it crumbled beneath him.
When a cosmic anomaly devastates the planet of Tethia—aging its victims by fifty years in an instant—society fractures. Alien mushrooms overrun cities. Power-hungry factions rise. And Barron, once the golden boy of Nero Company, is left behind.
But ambition doesn’t die easily.
Drawn into the web of the influential Alchemy Guild, Barron begins designing again—only this time, he may be laying the groundwork for something far darker than architecture. As secrets rot the world from within, Barron must choose between survival… and salvation.
Glowing Ambition is a slow-burn fantasy of ambition, decay, and power—perfect for readers who like their epics thoughtful, dangerous, and morally gray.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2025This book surprised me in the best way. Glowing Ambition pulls you into a world that’s rich, ruthless, and totally addictive. The characters are sharp, the stakes are high, and there’s a quiet, haunting beauty to the writing that lingers after you’re done. It’s not your typical fantasy—it’s smarter, darker, and way more personal. You can tell the author poured real ambition into every page. Definitely worth the read
