Unlock the past. Rewrite the future. But beware-the truth comes at a cost.
In a world where memories can be stolen, sold, and weaponized, seventeen-year-old Elenya is haunted by emotions she can't explain and visions she doesn't understand. When a chance encounter with a black-market memory dealer reveals a hidden world beneath her city's surface, Elenya is thrust into a dangerous conspiracy that spans decades-and lives.
Under the mentorship of a mysterious figure known only as the Collector, Elenya begins training as a Restorer, an elite memory retriever who steals back what was taken. But as she uncovers lost pieces of herself, she stumbles upon a memory so powerful it was erased from history... and someone will do anything to keep it buried.
With every recovered memory, Elenya steps closer to the truth-and further into a labyrinth of betrayal, forbidden knowledge, and the weight of a legacy she never asked for.
The Memory Thief's Apprentice is a gripping fantasy adventure laced with mystery, emotional depth, and soul-stirring twists. Perfect for fans of The Giver, Shadow and Bone, and The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, this spellbinding tale will make you question what it means to remember-and who you become when the truth is finally revealed.
If memories shape who we are, what happens when yours aren't your own?

About the Author
Rui Talaia is not a guru, nor does he claim to have all the answers. He is simply a fellow traveler-curious, open-hearted, and deeply human-who has spent decades exploring the questions that tug at the soul: Who am I? Why am I here? How do I live with meaning in a world that often feels disconnected?
His journey has taken him through many landscapes: from ancient teachings and spiritual communities to quiet moments of reflection and everyday life lessons. Along the way, Rui has come to believe that spirituality isn't something separate from life-it is life, lived with intention, presence, and compassion.
Living the New Age is the second book in his evolving trilogy, a continuation of his honest and heartfelt exploration into how we can bring spirit into the ordinary. His first book laid the foundation; this one invites you to live it. The third and final book is currently in the making, bringing together a lifetime of insights, mistakes, awakenings, and humble wonderings.
Rui writes not as an expert, but as someone who is still learning-still listening. Through his books, he hopes to create a space where readers feel less alone, more empowered, and gently reminded that the sacred is already within them.
