The Cloud Rider (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798241978981)

A wave takes Kemal somewhere ideas have teeth.Kemal is swept off an ordinary shore and into a realm where thoughts are traded, hoarded, and harvested. To find his way back, he must cross the Market of Ideas, follow strange guides who speak in riddles, and face a creature that survives by consuming what others create: an Idea-Eater Panda that is quietly poisoning itself.

At the center of the realm stands an ancient oak door and a Keykeeper with a brutal rule: you cannot keep everything you want and still move forward. Each choice costs Kemal a certainty, and the longer he hesitates, the more the world reshapes him into its loop.

In this philosophical fable, you'll encounter:

• The Market of Ideas, where beliefs are bought and bartered
• Joy and worry carried like fuel, with consequences you can't ignore
• A Keykeeper, an oak door, and a question with no comfortable answer
• An Idea-Eater Panda whose hunger mirrors our own

The Cloud Rider is a surreal, lyrical journey about identity, desire, and the price of choosing.

Perfect for readers who enjoy:

• Philosophical fables with a sharp emotional core
• Surreal journeys where ideas have consequences
• Allegorical fantasy in the spirit of modern literary fiction
