Rise of Anu'kai

The Rise of Anu'Kai - A Bold Urban Fantasy for a New Era

What if the next stage of human evolution was not about gaining power, but about learning to connect?

In the heart of New York City, a cosmic force awakens. "Cosmic fire"-the living energy of the universe-erupts in those who dare to hope, love, and fight for something greater than themselves. Kai Santiago never asked to be a hero. Struggling to keep his family together, he's suddenly thrust into a hidden war where the stakes are nothing less than the soul of humanity.

But Kai isn't alone. As others ignite with the same unpredictable power, a new community emerges-one bound by empathy, courage, and the willingness to challenge what it means to be human. Together, they must face enemies who would see consciousness itself erased, and forces that test the very limits of hope and unity.

The Rise of Anu'Kai is not your typical superhero novel. J.H. Medina weaves a gripping tale of street-level action, multigenerational family bonds, and world-shifting ideas. This is a story about ordinary people confronting extraordinary change-and choosing to evolve, not through domination, but through connection.

Perfect for fans of The Broken Earth trilogy, Watchmen, and Sense8, Anukai asks the most important question of our time: In a world on the brink, will you choose fear-or will you become the fire that brings us together?
