13 Worlds

By: J. J. Hair

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Thirteen worlds hang in the balance. One boy may decide their fate.

Joseph is an ordinary fifth grader—bright, protective of his twin sister, and just trying to survive bullies, awkward teachers, and an unsettling home life. But his younger brother Malek is anything but ordinary. He’s cruel. Unpredictable. And possibly not human.

Then Velda appears—a nightmarish, otherworldly spider who visits Joseph in the dead of night. She warns him of a coming destruction, of a cosmic war beyond Earth, and of a darkness already festering inside his family. As Joseph’s dreams turn prophetic and his grip on reality begins to slip, he’s forced to confront a chilling truth: Malek was never his brother… and Joseph himself might not be entirely who he thinks he is.

Across the galaxy, powerful beings have decided that humanity’s rapid evolution must be stopped—before it spawns something too intelligent, too dangerous to control. And Earth is only the first domino.
As the fabric of Joseph’s world unravels—his family shattered, his sanity tested—he’s left with an impossible question: can he save the ones he loves, or was he born to destroy them?

In 13 Worlds, J. J. Hair crafts a genre-bending fusion of psychological suspense, science fiction, and coming-of-age drama that will leave readers questioning what it means to be human—and what happens when our greatest potential becomes our greatest threat.
