Fifty years after the Great Bloom reshaped Earth, the Wilderwake rises-a vast, bioluminescent fungal forest whispered to possess its own consciousness. Technology falters in its depths, time bends and fractures, and expeditions vanish without a trace. Now Dr. Mara Vex, an ethnobotanist driven by both science and grief, leads a final mission into its shifting heart.

What begins as exploration quickly unravels into a waking nightmare: colleagues vanish, memories fracture, and the whispers of the Wilderwake grow louder, demanding recognition. Beneath the fungal canopy lies not only an ancient archive of the planet's forgotten past but also a terrible choice for its future. To destroy the forest is to risk global collapse; to preserve it may demand sacrifices humanity is unwilling to make.

Lyrical, unsettling, and unforgettable, The Forest Keeps Its Own Time is a dark eco-fantasy for readers of Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach Trilogy and Emily St. John Mandel's Station Eleven. Step into the Wilderwake-if you dare-but remember: the forest is watching, and it never forgets.
