Savannah, GA – Oct 01, 2026 – Anderson Gibbons is preparing for the release of My Third Self, a new epic fantasy novel that places family, legacy, and the cost of protection at the center of a vast cosmic world.
The book follows Oryious, whose three selves move through memory, time, and hidden planes while confronting the consequences of power and the fear of loss. Around him is a world built from ancient forces and living principles, where families are tied to houses, gifts carry burdens, and survival often depends on what remains unspoken.
The emotional thread of My Third Self comes from the author’s own reflections on loss, writing, and endurance. Gibbons dedicates the book to his brother, Torey Dwayne Gibbons, and to his brother’s legacies, Lynnise and Dwayne, whom he notes helped inspire two of his most powerful characters.
That personal foundation gives the novel a strong human pulse. Beneath the language of Time, Light, Death, and memory is a story about what people inherit, what they protect, and what they leave behind.
“Legacy is not always clean or simple,” said Gibbons. “Sometimes it comes through grief, sometimes through family. Sometimes through the choices we make when there is no perfect answer. That is the kind of story I wanted to tell.”
My Third Self is being positioned for readers who enjoy thoughtful fantasy, complex worlds, philosophical stakes, and stories that stay with them after the final page.
