“Time is not a river but an ocean. Remember.”

These words, engraved on a mysterious watch, are the only guidance a young boy has in a world that is quietly coming apart.

At five years old, under a shifting night sky, he received a burden no child should carry: the complete memories of a life he hasn’t lived yet. For years, he exists as a prisoner of his own foreknowledge, a silent observer of a script he cannot change. He knows the tragedies before they strike. He knows the secrets before they are told.

But when the timeline begins to crumble, creating anomalies that defy logic, he realizes that the future is no longer written in stone.

Hunted by those who seek to control and watched by entities that exist beyond time, he discovers that his curse is actually a key. As reality itself begins to collapse, he must stop running from his burden and face an impossible choice.

The burden of knowledge will unlock the gift of understanding.

Perfect for fans of Blake Crouch’s Dark Matter, Ted Chiang’s Exhalation, and The Midnight Library. The Burden of Knowledge is a mind-bending metaphysical sci-fi thriller that weaves together time travel, precognition, and alternate realities. A gripping technothriller for readers who crave deep philosophical questions alongside high-stakes conspiracy and mystery.
