Silas M Vane is a Gulf War veteran, cancer survivor, and polymath who's read 2,000+ books from Dumas to Dostoevsky. After 20 years studying Sun Tzu and Musashi, he writes grimdark fantasy about broken people who refuse to stay down. Book proceeds fund the development of VMS, an AI PTSD companion for veterans.

Silas M Vane is a fantasy author drawn to stories about flawed heroes, gritty worlds, and the fight for inner peace amid chaos. Inspired by martial arts philosophy and tales of resilience, Silas explores what it means to carry scars and keep moving forward.  Pulse of the Broken Thread is the first book in the Broken Thread Saga.
