Awake

They woke with no memories-only fear.

Four strangers-Chaya, Khalid, Jian, and Omar- regain consciousness in a lush, closed biosphere with no names, no pasts, and no way out. The surrounding jungle is wrong. Monitored. Controlled. Designed.

As they unravel the truth about the world they inhabit, they realize this is no accident. It's a test. Observed by entities beyond human understanding-possibly alien, possibly post-human-they are part of a recursive experiment to determine what is worth saving from a collapsed Earth. In this brutal game of survival and identity, only one can choose: repeat the cycle...or end it forever.

Awake is a dark, character-driven science fiction thriller that blends the psychological tension of The Hunger Games with the haunting mystery of Annihilation. For readers who enjoy gripping survival stories, existential dilemmas, and slow-burning suspense in a speculative setting.
