The Crimson Labyrinth
By Krishna Prasanth Guttikonda

Beneath the kingdom of Virelia lies a secret older than history—a vast and ever-shifting maze of blood-colored stone, a place of myth and madness known only as The Crimson Labyrinth. No one who has entered its depths has ever returned. Most believe it cursed. Some say it lives.

Lysandra Thorne doesn’t believe in legends—only in survival. A rogue, a thief, and a woman with nothing left to lose, she’s spent years running from a past drenched in blood and betrayal. But when whispers surface of a powerful artifact buried deep within the labyrinth—an ancient relic rumored to twist the fabric of time—Lysandra sees one final chance to right her past and rewrite the future.

She isn’t the only one searching.

A haunted knight with a broken code.
A sorceress whose memory was stolen by the maze.
A half-elf trapmaster driven by desperation.
A noblewoman with ambitions soaked in treachery.
And a man from Lysandra’s past who would see the world burn to remake it in his own twisted image.

Together—and apart—they will descend into a nightmare. For The Crimson Labyrinth is no mere dungeon. It is sentient. It watches. It remembers. And the deeper they go, the more the labyrinth reshapes reality, feeding on fear, regret, and desire.

Time bends.
Truth fractures.
And memories lie.

With every step, the adventurers must confront not only the horrors within the maze, but the darkness within themselves. As secrets unravel and loyalties shatter, Lysandra must choose: seize the power to undo her greatest mistake… or destroy the artifact and the labyrinth forever—before it escapes into the world above.

A dark fantasy epic of betrayal, sacrifice, and the high cost of power, The Crimson Labyrinth blends the psychological tension of The Silent Patient, the epic scope of Mistborn, and the mind-bending twists of Dark Souls and Inception.
