About the Author

Michael J. Meraw is an author whose work delves into the dark intersection of environmental collapse, existential reckoning, and humanity’s unrelenting impact on the planet. A former Canadian Armed Forces pilot and aerospace leader, his perspective on survival, control, and power dynamics shapes his exploration of humanity’s tenuous hold on the natural world.

Now, he channels these experiences into eco-horror narratives that challenge the myth of human dominance. His stories trace what happens when the earth stops forgiving us—when rivers remember, forests reclaim, and species speak back.

Meraw’s most recent projects:

Let the River Decide—a literary eco-thriller in the EᴠØ-Myth Universe™. A road-north journey told in alternating first-person voices (Mike and his stepfather, Cliff) collides with hydro-corridor politics and vanishing people, until the water stops witnessing and acts.

The Book of Dominatus I is a two-part eco-horror epic that fuses ecological anxiety with stark explorations of adaptation and resilience.
• Part I—The Lost World of Mythoamphibia exists as both a completed novel and a feature-length screenplay, with an accompanying film adaptation package developed for cinematic storytellers such as Guillermo del Toro.
• Part II—Return to the Source (Novella Edition) expands the narrative into prehistory, telling the story of the last Neanderthal and weaving directly into the project’s narrative board game adaptation.

Upcoming:

Return to the Source (Novel Edition)—the new flagship work of the EᴠØ-Myth Universe. A full-length literary eco-myth that transcends prehistory and cosmology: as God journeys across the multiverse to confront her Sisters and their broken creations, a lone Homo sapiens known only as The Fourth makes the first act of true empathy by freeing the last Neanderthal. Their stories converge in the moment creation teaches the Creator what conscience truly is—and the Law of Existence changes forever. (December 2025)

King Amphibia’s Rise—a near-future eco-horror in the EᴠØ-Myth Universe: when the fused Toadstone and Mother-of-Pearl birth a regenerative amphibian sovereign, creation’s cure may become a replacement—and humanity must choose stewardship or surrender. (May 2026)

Whether through novels, screenplays, or game design, Michael’s writing examines the forces that shape civilization—both the ones we create and the ones we refuse to acknowledge. In an era where humans remain the planet’s most persistent blight, his work asks the unflinching question: What happens when nature finally stops forgiving us?
