About the Novel

/ | \

Greenhouse is set on Sun-Eve, a planet of contrast and mirrors— harsh seasons, existential tension.

Separated by an uninhabitable equator and the embers of global war, two civilizations cling to opposite poles, each facing irreversible climate collapse that demands transformation, or extinction.

The novel follows the lives of Minevra, a southern farm girl too brilliant to serve her god-queen blindly, and Alton, a northern physicist trapped within his own obsessive determinism. When they meet in the wake of retaliation and fragile diplomacy, their alliance could mark humanity’s last breath, or first step towards an evolved future.

Told through layered perspectives, shifting narrative lenses, lore inserts, and philosophical pressure, Greenhouse reflects humanity in a warped mirror. Its characters, alien as they are familiar, do not belong to the history of Earth we know. Yet they yearn for the same truths that continue to elude us.
