Explore the Realms of Book One

The passage opens onto six worlds.

The Triangle Passage carries Kyle through six distinct realms, each with its own dangers, secrets, and role in the mystery surrounding his father.

Realm 01

Atlantis

An ancient underwater kingdom where Kyle first learns that his father's disappearance is tied to something far older than the Bermuda Triangle.

Realm 02

Ixkaba

A living jungle whose paths remember, where luminous creatures watch and trust must be earned.

Realm 03

Sah'Kara

A desert realm of endless dunes, forgotten cities, and secrets buried beneath the sand.

Realm 04

The Mist Paths

A shifting passage where direction, memory, and reality are never quite certain.

Realm 05

Khazraeth

Crystal caverns that resonate with hidden voices—and where Kyle hears something no one else can.

Realm 06

Glacia

A frozen realm where beauty and danger are inseparable, and survival depends on more than strength.

An Audience with Queen Neera

Ruler of Atlantis

“The sea remembers what the world chooses to forget.”

Queen Neera rules Atlantis with unwavering resolve and carries knowledge that could change everything Kyle believes about his father's disappearance.

Whether she is protecting her people, protecting the truth, or pursuing something of her own remains uncertain.

Meet Queen Neera

Meet the hero

Kyle Reed

Kyle is twelve, stubborn, curious, and tired of being protected from the truth. He uses forearm crutches and leg braces on Earth, but neither defines his courage nor limits how far he is willing to go.

Book One is not the end of Kyle's mystery. It is the moment he learns that the story he inherited was never the whole story—and that his father's disappearance was not an accident.

The journey begins

Every answer creates another question.

The Triangle Passage is the opening movement of a five-book arc: discovery, roots, choice, balance, and legacy. Kyle begins by searching for his father. Before the series ends, his choices will help shape the future of the realms themselves.
