Victor Manibo Standalone Novels books in order

Reading order

Victor Manibo’s standalone novels each take a different speculative premise and build a thriller around it. The Sleepless imagines a world grappling with a condition that eliminates the need for sleep, while Escape Velocity puts its characters on a space station where privilege and desperation collide. Dead Note and The Villa, Once Beloved are his most recent works, continuing his interest in how technology and social structures interact.

Each book is self-contained, so readers can start with whichever concept interests them most. Manibo writes science fiction that feels grounded and contemporary, more interested in how people behave under pressure than in the technical details of his invented worlds.
