Literary Epic Fantasy

My Third
Self

A fantasy novel by Anderson Gibbons, where three fractured aspects of one being cross the places of time to save the family that outlasts them.

ABOUT THE BOOK

A father split across time, searching for what must survive.

Somewhere beyond ordinary time, an ancient consciousness carries the weight of every choice, every loss, and every version of himself. My Third Self follows Oryious, a being whose past, present, and potential future are bound together by memory, power, and the family he refuses to lose.

Across the Spatial, Echo, Quantum, and other hidden planes, this epic fantasy explores a realm built on Time, Light, Death, Body, Life, Knowledge, and Wisdom. But beneath its vast mythology is something deep: the fear of failing those we love, the cost of secrets, and the hope that even broken things can still protect what matters.

Equal parts cosmic fantasy and emotional meditation, My Third Self is for readers who want a story with scale, soul, and meaning.

THE THREE SELVES

Three selves. One reach
forward.

First

The Burden

The self shaped by old mistakes, grief, and the memories that refuse to fade. It carries what was lost, what was done, and what cannot be undone.

Second

The Moment

The self standing inside the present, aware of every choice as it unfolds. This is where love, fear, power, and consequence meet.

Third

The Becoming

The self not yet reached, but already waiting. It holds every possibility, every future, and the one truth Time cannot afford to lose.

THE AUTHOR

Anderson Gibbons

Anderson Gibbons writes with the depth of someone who understands grief, endurance, and the quiet work of becoming whole again. After the death of his brother, writing became a way to move through loss. Later, after retiring from the military, it became part of how he faced life with PTSD. His fiction carries that emotional weight into a world of myth, memory, and cosmic power. My Third Self is not only an epic fantasy. It is a story shaped by reflection, survival, family, and the belief that what we leave behind can still matter.

Why My Third Self Is Built for Readers Who Like Their Fantasy Big, Strange, and Personal

Some fantasy books invite you into a kingdom. My Third Self invites you into a system of existence. That difference matters.

Anderson Gibbons’ My Third Self is not built around a simple map, a single throne, or a familiar battle between good and evil.

The Most Interesting Fantasy Worlds Are the Ones With Rules That Hurt

A great fantasy world does not begin with magic. It begins with limits. What can power do? What can it not do? Who pays the cost? Who lives with the consequences when someone reaches too far?

That is one reason My Third Self by Anderson Gibbons feels so distinct.
