Fifty years after the Great Bloom reshaped Earth, the Wilderwake rises-a vast, bioluminescent fungal forest whispered to possess its own consciousness. Technology falters in its depths, time bends and fractures, and expeditions vanish without a trace. Now Dr. Mara Vex, an ethnobotanist driven by both science and grief, leads a final mission into its shifting heart. What begins as exploration quickly unravels into a waking nightmare: colleagues vanish, memories fracture, and the whispers of the Wilderwake grow louder, demanding recognition. Beneath the fungal canopy lies not only an ancient archive of the planet's forgotten past but also a terrible choice for its future. To destroy the forest is to risk global collapse; to preserve it may demand sacrifices humanity is unwilling to make. Lyrical, unsettling, and unforgettable, The Forest Keeps Its Own Time is a dark eco-fantasy for readers of Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach Trilogy and Emily St. John Mandel's Station Eleven. Step into the Wilderwake-if you dare-but remember: the forest is watching, and it never forgets.
Rowan Chase is a speculative fiction author known for blending science, ecology, and hauntingly human storytelling. His debut novel, The Last Greenhouse, introduced readers to a post-collapse world where seeds become sacred and survival hinges on buried truths. His follow-up, Tideglass, dives deeper into eco-thriller territory, uncovering corporate corruption and oceanic secrets in a parched dystopia. Chase's next novel, The Forest Keeps Its Own Time, promises an immersive journey into a sentient fungal wilderness where time, memory, and identity unravel. Across his works, Chase explores the tension between humanity and the environment, crafting atmospheric worlds where nature is both a refuge and a reckoning. When not writing, Rowan Chase can often be found researching environmental history or hiking forgotten paths, always in search of stories the world has yet to tell.
