Awaken the Anomalies: Awakening Before the Nightmare
A Speculative Fiction Debut by Janean L. Watkins

In a dystopian America, Sean Marcos Madero learns early that being different comes at a cost. Gifted with a powerful ability to influence minds, he tries to carve out a life of quiet resistance under a regime determined to control Anomalies – those like him, whose unexplained gifts are seen as a threat.
Haunted by a family legacy he barely understands and pursued by forces that wish to either use or silence him, Sean’s journey takes him from underground sanctuaries to the heart of global conspiracies. Trusted allies offer training and guidance, but no one can shield him from betrayal and heartbreak.
As Sean’s powers sharpen, so do the lines between resistance and compliance. He faces gut-wrenching choices that require him to either sacrifice personal safety or hide his gifts. Regardless of the path he chooses, Sean realizes he must stand defiantly in a world that fears them. His rise within the resistance pits him against powerful enemies – including a government operative with a personal vendetta.
By the novel’s end, Sean’s hard-won victories come at a steep price, leaving him with a haunting realization: the fight for freedom is far from over, and darker forces are already moving in the shadows. The decisions he makes now will ripple across timelines, shaping the future in ways he cannot yet imagine.
