Flavors of the Forgotten God [EPUB ebook] 
A Culinary Apocalypse

In the breathtaking nebula-city of Aurastran, magic is woven into every dish, every flavor a spell.  Dorian Ibanez, a chef consumed by ambition, dared to capture the taste of the gods in his masterpiece, Ambrosia Noir.  But his culinary triumph became a city’s nightmare.  The dish awakened a forgotten god, imprisoned for millennia beneath Aurastran, whose hunger now threatens to devour all.
Branded a pariah, Dorian must confront the devastating consequences of his creation.  He finds unlikely allies in Sariyah, a blind alchemist whose heightened senses perceive the whispers of magic, and Callen, a rogue food critic who tasted the doom within Ambrosia Noir. Together, they embark on a perilous quest for the Recipes of Binding, a mythical cookbook rumored to hold the key to appeasing the god.
Their journey through Aurastran’s crumbling districts exposes a conspiracy within the city’s culinary elite, a secret society that orchestrated the god’s awakening for their own nefarious purposes.  As the city teeters on the brink of annihilation, Dorian grapples with a chilling realization: his creation of Ambrosia Noir was no accident.  It was a calling.
Sariyah discovers a hidden connection to the forgotten god, a terrifying link that could either save Aurastran or seal its fate.  Callen, driven by journalistic instinct and a growing sense of responsibility, unravels a web of deceit, his investigation revealing the true depth of the conspiracy.
Amidst the chaos, Dorian must confront his own obsession, recognizing a reflection of his hunger in the god’s insatiable appetite. He must choose: succumb to his ambition and unleash the full potential of Ambrosia Noir, or embrace the profound consequences of his creation and find a way to bind the god once more.  He must learn that true power lies not in control, but in understanding, not in awakening gods, but in crafting the perfect lullaby. The fate of Aurastran rests on a single dish, a symphony of flavors poised between creation and destruction.
