From the Author:

I wrote Prophet of Doom because I believe the greatest threat to humanity isn’t war or disease—it’s the quiet erasure of truth. Today, reality is filtered through algorithms, power is disguised as protection, and history can be rewritten in real time. This story is a warning and a challenge. If memory can be controlled, freedom dies. Mara Dyson’s fight is our fight: to make the disappeared visible again—no matter the cost. — Joseph Murkijanian
