by Monica Red (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 192 ratings

A missing treasure. Mind-bending clues. Can he expose conspiracies and corruption without triggering deadly consequences?

Tom Umbrar-Ment can’t believe his luck. Attending his best friend’s wedding, the easy-going contractor seizes the chance to approach the groom’s younger sister… and his own secret crush. But all his protective instincts fire up when she’s targeted by robbers and loses a powerful ancient relic.

Determined not to let his love take the fall, Tom fights his way to a spectacular parallel universe the thieves use as a bolthole. But with less than three days before doomsday, he puts aside his awe of the hot air balloons and steam-powered science to confront a twisted criminal cartel.

Will he break all the rules to win his sweetheart’s approval and stop a looming apocalypse?

Chaos is the fast-paced first book in the Collision of Realms steampunk thriller fantasy series. If you like heroes with a dark side, hints of romance, and ominously ticking clocks, then you’ll adore Monica Red’s mechanized adventure.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I was born in Mexico City a few years back when the internet wasn’t a thing and we listened to music on FM radio. My parents decided to move to Toluca, the capital of the State of Mexico, which was a less crowded. It was a small town at the time,  only between 1 to 2 million people!

I became an architect and worked for years on my career. Eventually I ventured to the northern end of the American continent and settled down in the Midwest, where nowadays I enjoy the brief summer and crazy winter of Minnesota.

As for writing? Well, I started to write my first novel when I was in high school. This manuscript developed and became a fantasy trilogy that you can find as Saber. I wrote many short stories, both Spanish and English, along with several manuscripts that maybe one day will see the light of day.

Besides reading, I love painting, although I doubt my talent is worth sharing. I enjoy music, especially loud and although I complain about bugs, I enjoy hiking and exploring the great outdoors... or cities (must be the architect in me).

    In Chaos: Collision of Realms, Monica Red launches readers into a whirlwind steampunk adventure where love, danger, and multidimensional intrigue collide. When easygoing contractor Tom Umbrar-Ment stumbles into a deadly theft at a wedding, he’s hurled from flirtation to full-blown heroics. With an ancient relic stolen and the woman he secretly loves under suspicion, Tom follows the trail through a dazzling parallel world—where steam-powered science reigns and secrets simmer beneath polished brass.

    With only three days to stop an apocalyptic chain reaction, Tom must navigate clockwork cities, evade a cutthroat cartel, and uncover a conspiracy that stretches across dimensions. Fast-paced and filled with wit, romance, and retro-futuristic thrills, Chaos is a genre-blending ride that fans of steampunk and high-stakes adventures won’t want to miss.

    Intriguing and sususpeful, this was an exciting book full of tension, betrayals, family toxicity, monsters and corruption. I liked Jess more than Tom, as Tom seemed kind of tough yet a bit impulsive and apt to jump to conclusions. I kind of liked Marshall too, at the end. It was a crazy thrill ride of a book!

    Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2025
    Format: Kindle
    Monica Red’s Chaos is an absolute blast from start to finish! I picked it up on a whim and couldn’t put it down. Tom Umbrar-Ment is a lovable, reluctant hero who finds himself in way over his head—but in the best way possible. The blend of steampunk vibes, parallel worlds, and an ancient relic made for an addictive, high-stakes adventure.

    The romance is sweet but never overdone, and the world-building—think hot air balloons and steam tech—feels fresh and exciting. There’s plenty of action, clever twists, and that ticking clock tension that keeps you flipping pages.

    Perfect for fans of fantasy thrillers with heart and grit. Can’t wait for book two!

    This book pulls you into a vividly imagined world where timelines twist, conspiracies simmer, and every second counts. With its unique blend of gangster era grit and steam powered fantasy, Monica Red creates a fast paced, emotionally charged narrative full of unexpected turns and rich world building.

    Tom and Jess are a dynamic pair: his protectiveness and her resilience make for an engaging slow burn romance set against a backdrop of secrets, monsters, and ticking clocks. The clever use of footnotes adds an academic flair, deepening the lore without interrupting the flow.

    Perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare’s Infernal Devices or Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code, this book combines high-stakes action with strong character development.
