The Monster We Made

A dark and thought-provoking tale of creation, consequence, and the boundaries between humanity and monstrosity, *The Monster We Made* explores what happens when fear, ambition, and unchecked choices take on a life of their own. As its characters confront the consequences of what they have brought into the world, they must reckon with guilt, responsibility, and the unsettling possibility that the true monster may not be what they expected. Atmospheric and psychologically charged, the novel invites readers to question whether monsters are born—or made.
