After losing his position at a major automotive design firm, Miles Walker retreats from his family and from himself in I Want To Go To Yellow by D.T. Liburd. When a childhood sketch titled A Road Map to Yellow suddenly ignites in his loft, he is drawn into Kitrinos, a shifting realm that responds to memory and belief. There, the terrain reshapes around his private failures, forcing him to relive the pivotal moments that defined his ambition, his marriage, and his sense of worth. As he moves deeper into this world, he becomes entangled in a larger conflict involving a blood-bound pact and a rising force known as Fear that threatens to consume more than his own life. To reach Yellow, Miles must confront what he has become and decide which voice will define his future.
I Want To Go To Yellow by D.T. Liburd is a unique premise for a story, and the author does an excellent job of pulling readers into a labyrinth of questions and answers from Miles' point of view. Miles himself is a fully fleshed out protagonist, flawed but infinitely more likable as the story progresses, the pinnacle for me coming when he stands before a full arena, which includes people he knows, and does something the old Miles would not have done. Fear is a primary antagonist, positioning evil as something empowered by human consent rather than random chaos. And in these intelligent scenes, Liburd shows his skill as a writer, including a Christian identity. There's an inscription stating that strength is made perfect in weakness, directly quoting 2 Corinthians, a principle that becomes literal when Miles builds upward. Overall, this is the perfect book for readers who appreciate stories of spiritual warfare, expressed through engineered landscapes. Liburd's work is distinctive and unmistakably its own.
