Tower of Somnus · #2
Chiwaukee Nights
Success is more treacherous than failure, bringing dangerous attention, and potentially unbeatable foes.
Kat beat the bad guys and scored a pile of credits deep enough for her to fill a kiddy pool and go swimming in it. What she didn’t expect was for the mastermind of her plight to survive, as well as do her a favor: she removed her from the Arcology, and enrolled her in the GroCorp corporate college. She knows the Arcology, but this is a chance to earn enough credits to set her family up for life.
But people are disappearing, and betrayal lurks around every corner. Kat is out of her depth, and everyone is playing for keeps. Only by relying on every erg of power she’s managed to scavenge from the Tower of Somnus does Kat even begin to stand a chance.
What if the power she earns comes at a price that isn’t hers to pay?

Read full series description
At the heart of this series is Katherine "Kat" Debs, a young woman struggling to break free from the suffocating grip of corporate manipulation. Her journey takes her deep into the enigmatic Tower of Somnus, a virtual world where the rules of reality no longer apply, and where every decision can have far-reaching consequences. As she navigates the Tower’s labyrinthine challenges, Kat uncovers hidden secrets, unravels conspiracies, and confronts forces both external and internal that threaten her freedom—and her very identity.
What sets Tower of Somnus apart is its world-building: a masterful creation where the virtual and real collide in unexpected ways, each layer of the Tower representing a new, often perilous, frontier to explore. The high stakes aren’t just about survival; they’re about identity, choice, and the power to control one’s own fate in a world designed to keep people tethered.
With a sharp, engaging narrative and deep character arcs, the series delves into themes of autonomy, resistance, and the consequences of unchecked technological advancement. The richly detailed world and the fast-paced, immersive storyline keep readers hooked, as they are drawn deeper into Kat’s quest for autonomy and justice.
In Tower of Somnus, every step forward leads to new revelations—often at a cost. And as Kat inches closer to unlocking the Tower’s darkest secrets, readers will find themselves questioning what it means to truly be free. It's not just about surviving in a dystopian world—it’s about fighting to shape a future that is worth living.
