The Color of the Rift

The Color of the Rift is a fantasy novel set in 1824 Mobile, Alabama, where James, a plantation owner’s son, and Benjamin, an enslaved boy, share a deep friendship. A mysterious Rift pulls them into an other world where history flips: Black people hold power, and white people are enslaved. James endures slavery’s pain, while Benjamin grapples with pressure to act cruelly. They uncover the Rift’s origins in 1347 Marseille, where The Torebulians, priests using magic, sparked chaos with time experiments. With Marcella’s courage and Rosanna’s wisdom, they face Marcus Jackson and Captain Joseph Whitemore, whose feud feeds the Rift’s paradox. The Hekarai, tied to The Prima Materia, and the dark Enlil reveal their cosmic roles to heal the galaxy.
