"This extraordinary novel combines the story of one young man's existential quest with the precision of the best historical novels and the thrilling imagination of sci-fi books." —Francesc Miralles, author of Love in Small Letters and co-author of The Ikigai Journey
Would you risk everything to find the love you thought you'd lost forever?
From Hector Garcia, international bestselling author of Ikigai and The Book of Ichigo Ichie, comes his first novel—an unforgettable blend of time-travel adventure, historical intrigue, and a love story that spans centuries.
Nathan lives a quiet life surrounded by ticking timepieces and memories. His only passion: antique watches. But everything changes when he discovers an old photograph of Mia, his high school crush who vanished after moving to Japan—and was later declared dead. Or was she?
Soon, Nathan begins receiving text messages from someone claiming to be Mia. Is this a cruel prank, or could she be alive in another time?
His search leads him to Kyoto, where he encounters the enigmatic Taira Corporation—a secretive group with intimate knowledge of his past and access to a powerful technology that can bend the rules of time itself. But time travel has a price, and Nathan isn't the only one trying to unlock its secrets. The rival Genji Corporation will stop at nothing to destroy their competitors.
Set in both the near future and 12th-century Japan, Eternity in Kyoto is a genre-bending sci-fi love story that blends time-travel adventure, historical intrigue, and spiritual reflection. It weaves together a touching love story with profound revelations about the essential foundations of our shared humanity.
