About Alex Aksnes

Worlds where science, myth, and eternity collide.

IMG_4375.png

Alex Aksnes writes expansive, character-driven worlds that blend science fiction, fantasy, horror, mythology, and philosophy. His stories are built on big questions, about consciousness, memory, survival, and humanity's place within a living universe, and on the conviction that the oldest myths and the newest sciences are often telling the same story.
 

Drawing on decades of reading across history, religion, science, and human culture, he created The Latest Hour, a multi-book series set on a fractured future Earth. It is a world of ancient bloodlines and hidden powers, of a planet that remembers and a humanity that has forgotten, and of one young woman caught between forces older than civilization itself.
 

The Latest Hour is only the beginning. More books and projects are on the way.

The vision behind the series

"Where science, myth, and eternity collide."

The Latest Hour grew out of a simple idea: that the universe is not a stage we act upon, but a living thing we are part of. The series asks what happens when a civilization at the height of its power forgets that truth, and what it might cost to remember.
