SIMON: The ENDOGENOUS ORB EVENT (The PROBABILITY TRILOGY) Paperback – January 12, 2026

From underwater, Simon watched the Orb pass beneath the Old Neckar Bridge.It moved at a velocity that should have annihilated the world.But only the geometry changed.The distortion deepened. The riverbanks compressed. Even the bridge ahead tilted forward by a fraction of a degree, as though reality itself were bowing toward the event.For less than a second, a seam opened in the air ahead of it.Not an explosion.Not a rupture.The Orb was carrying a fragment of the future with it, a single frame of its origin spacetime.For an instant, the recess exposed a surface.Not a creature.Not an object.A surface.Smooth. Continuous. Matte-black, but not absorbing light, reorganizing it. Flattening depth into a thin, wrong perspective his eyes couldn’t reconcile.His brain refused to label it as matter. It felt closer to a condition than a thing, a property of space that had briefly intersected this one and begun to withdraw.The seventh sense detonated.Not fear.Not pain.Recognition without memory.Then the seam snapped shut.The Orb continued downstream.And the system began correcting itself.Access logs changed after they were written.Timing records slipped.Equipment reported events that hadn’t happened yet.The warehouse kept running. Everyone kept working.Only Simon noticed the pattern.This wasn’t malfunction.It was calibration.Something was adjusting the environment.Something was testing him.At one point, a doctor gave Simon a single instruction:“If you ever feel like time stops completely, and you’re the only thing still moving, sit down wherever you are and do nothing until it restarts.”The event is approaching.The logs are updating.The system is already in motion.SIMON: The Endogenous Orb Event is a science-fiction thriller about observation, systems, and a reality that may already be rewriting itself.If reality starts correcting itself around you, how long before it decides you’re the error?
