Vfarius

About this book

In Vfarius, writer Mayada Khaled takes us on a journey beyond the borders of the sky to collide with the perplexing truths of the human psyche. The story begins when an ominous stillness prevails over the streets of Egypt, a stillness broken by the echo of a single piece of news that changed the face of history: the first alien creature has been captured. At that moment, Atheem finds himself forced to wake from a life of routine and work to face a reality that would never have crossed his boldest dreams, where the struggle revolves not around survival alone but around the absent truth in the rubble of lies. The events develop from a mere encounter with strangers into an exploratory space mission led by Atheem to the unknown planet Vfarius. There, where rubber walls and technological systems that understand the heartbeat's pulse, Atheem and his crew discover that the true enemy may not be a creature with strange features, but betrayal wearing the robe of friendship, and politics sacrificing lives for control. Between the loss of a mother that shattered Atheem's soul at the start, and falling in love with Asma, daughter of the strange planet who taught him that love knows no galaxy's borders, the great questions are posed: are we truly the original inhabitants of Earth? Or are we mere refugees who forgot the way home? Vfarius is not merely a science-fiction novel; it is a mirror reflecting our struggles, our disappointments, and our eternal yearning for a world ruled by peace away from the brutality of humans. It is a tale of belonging, where the distance between two planets becomes merely an honest heartbeat.
