Explora Books will be showcasing Shadow of Prophecy: The Elysian Prophecies Book 1 by Michael Warlen at the London Book Fair, taking place March 10–12, 2026, at the Olympia London. As the opening installment in a planned six-book series, this novel introduces readers to a layered fantasy that blends theology, scholarship, and cosmic tension without losing sight of human stakes.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 10th Mar 2026 – At the center of the story is Elysia Calderon, a scholar whose work leads her toward questions most would rather leave alone. Warlen builds his narrative around the idea that knowledge is not neutral—it carries weight, risk, and consequence. Rather than leaning only on spectacle, the novel asks what happens when belief systems collide and when ancient texts refuse to stay buried.

There are angels here, and fallen beings, and prophecies etched in star and flame. Yet what gives the book its steady pulse is not just its celestial conflict, but its attention to moral choice. The prose is clear and deliberate, allowing readers to move through dense ideas—faith, destiny, order, rebellion—without feeling overwhelmed. Warlen’s background in history, philosophy, and theology informs the worldbuilding, giving it structure and internal logic.

Readers who enjoy richly imagined worlds and carefully layered myth will find much to engage with here. Warlen’s narrative balances complexity with clarity, presenting a story that is measured, thoughtful, and at times quietly contemplative.

Warlen is no stranger to examining charged ideas. His nonfiction work, including Climate Con: Unveiling of the Global Warming Narrative, reflects a writer unafraid to probe difficult subjects. That same impulse appears in his fiction, where cosmic order and divine politics are not fixed absolutes but arenas for debate and struggle.

The result is a novel that feels both expansive and intimate. It considers the cost of uncovering truth and the strain placed on those who carry it. While this is only the first volume of The Elysian Prophecies, it reads with intention—laying groundwork for a broader arc while standing firmly on its own.

Visitors to the London Book Fair will have the opportunity to discover Shadow of Prophecy at the Explora Books display and see how Warlen’s blend of myth and inquiry opens a series that aims high without losing clarity. For readers drawn to stories where scholarship meets the sacred, this may be the beginning of something worth following.

Readers can find Shadow of Prophecy: The Elysian Prophecies Book 1 on Amazon and at other major retailers.
