Author Charles Simpson recently announced the release of his stunning debut novel, The Rider. He was inspired by a friend who struggled with embracing his identity in a world that can often seem xenophobic and intolerant. Simpson was moved to consider how a single person might confront different identities and perspectives in a story about reincarnation.
The Rider follows Janusz Zalewski as he dies at the age of 65 only to reincarnate as a newborn with all of his memories intact. Janusz, who was dearly looking forward to seeing his wife in Heaven, is devastated to realize that he is now stuck in another life. When he dies again, he discovers that the cycle continues, each time trapping him in a different family, place, and time. In order to navigate the complexities of his new personas, Janusz learns to confront his former worldviews and adapt to each fresh set of circumstances. He lives through things he had never imagined before, opening his mind to a host of possibilities as he struggles to survive.
Simpson’s breakout masterpiece addresses social issues that affect readers’ everyday observations, such as the ways that culture and society impact perception. Simpson strives to capture the essence of what it means to feel different and grapple with personal identity. He hopes that readers will internalize his message of tolerance and be less judgmental in their future interactions with others.
Early reviews hail Simpson’s novel as “an incredible story” and “amazing first book.” Readers of any background will identify with Simpson’s engaging voice and simple language. Fans of speculative fiction are sure to enjoy Simpson’s intricate narrative style and an intriguing plot that isn’t afraid to push the boundaries of reality, reincarnation, or even death itself.

After being born and raised in Michigan, he joined the Air Force at age seventeen and has traveled extensively across five continents.
