Savannah, GA – Oct 01, 2026 – Fantasy readers searching for a story with scale, mystery, and emotional depth will soon have a new world to enter with My Third Self, the upcoming novel by Anderson Gibbons.
Set across planes shaped by Time, Death, Light, Body, Life, Knowledge, and Wisdom, the novel follows Oryious, a being whose past, present, and future selves are bound together. His First Self carries the burden of past mistakes. His Second Self lives in the present moment. His Third Self guards the potential of what he may still become.
That idea gives the book its central pull: one story, three selves, and consequences that ripple across existence.
Rather than relying only on battle or spectacle, My Third Self uses fantasy to explore family, memory, secrecy, sacrifice, and the fear of failing those we love. The result is a story made for readers who enjoy rich mythology but still want an emotional reason to turn the page.
“Time in this book is more than a setting,” said Gibbons. “It is a pressure. It holds memory, regret, possibility, and responsibility. That is what makes the story dangerous for the characters, and meaningful for the reader.”
