If you want, I can create a professional subhead for you.
BRONX, NY, January 10, 2026 -- Author Derrick John Wiggins invites readers to embark on an unforgettable journey with the release of his steampunk sci-fi adventure novel, Odyssey of Nirvana. This gripping story follows young protagonist Arlo as he flees a dystopian world of oligarchy and endless wars in Boorish, joining a band of heroic pirates aboard the flying ship Imhotep. Together, they navigate dangerous skies in search of the mythical paradise known as Nirvana, a place rumored to be not just a state of mind, but a physical haven protected by divine laws and impenetrable barriers.
"What inspired me to write this book was my desire to create a series adventure about a group of people on a cozy mission together in the wild, reminiscent of The Wizard of Oz," said Wiggins. "I don't see many stories like that today, and I hope readers gain a religious perspective alongside the warmth of a simple, shared adventure. It's unique in its focus on a caravan of ships journeying through untamed lands in search of a godly place, essentially, the search for God in a steampunk universe."
Targeted at kids, teenagers and adults, Odyssey of Nirvana stands out in the genre by blending high-stakes piracy with spiritual exploration. Wiggins draws from his love of art, flying ships, and world-building to craft a narrative that satisfies enthusiasts looking to escape into a future where man, machines, and computers converge.
