Synopsis

In a world where the Demiurge Corporation enslaves minds through consumerism, Xiao—a golden monkey warrior—awakens the Jade Fist, a forbidden power that shatters illusions. With allies like Maestro Bai (a tiger sage) and Li-Mei (a cybernetic mantis monk) Xiao battles Shadow Serpents (corporate enforcers) in a visually stunning journey blending Pixar-worthy 3D art with Gnostic mysticism.

About the author

A lifelong explorer of Christ Consciousness and metaphysical realms, Julio channels these universal truths into immersive works like Alleyway Alchemy: A Feral Gospel, The Monkey’s Path: A Gnostic Kung-Fu Allegory (Christ Consciousness Meets the Jade Fist), Numa – A rat's Gnostic Gospel "The Soul Beneath the Fur" and Pepe & Tito: Barrio Saints Coloring Book – Extended Edition. Each of his books is meticulously formatted as a high-quality magazine-style edition, while select works also appear in large-format hardcovers with expanded page counts, designed to showcase the vibrant detail of his art.

His ongoing serial, Pepe’s Barefoot Best Friend, continues this journey—weaving myth, martial arts, and barrio sanctity into a tapestry for seekers of all paths. Whether through dynamic visuals or streetwise mysticism, Julio’s work invites readers to question, play, and awaken to the cosmic revelation hidden in everyday life

Dear Author,

You worked hard to write your manuscript, and you know that expert assistance is needed to ready it for the market. But perhaps you didn’t realize that working with a publisher is no longer necessary—especially publishers who charge fees to produce your book upfront and "share" more of your revenue whenever a book is sold.

1106 Design is an author services company that has served over 4,000 authors since 2001. We offer all the editorial and design services you’d expect from a publisher, transforming your manuscript into a polished book. But here's the difference: we help you secure print-on-demand printing and worldwide distribution in YOUR name. This means you'll earn several dollars more for every book sold instead of a meager “royalty” and never lose control of your book or your book files.

We understand that your book is not just a passion project but also a potential source of income. No two books or authors are alike. That's why we'll customize a package of services tailored to your needs at affordable prices, starting at $5,555. And here's the best part: after this one-time investment, every penny of revenue from book sales is deposited directly to your bank account, never to ours first.

If this sounds like a better way to publish your book, I invite you to browse our services, design samples, no-surprises pricing, outstanding customer reviews, and educational articles at https://1106design.com. You can download a free PDF of my book, "Publish Like the Pros: A Brief Guide to Quality Self-Publishing and an Insider's Look at a Misunderstood Industry," and request a free, no-obligation consultation.

1106 Design is rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau. We are a “Highly Recommended Expert” at IngramSpark.com and rated "Excellent" at Alli, The Alliance for Independent Authors, at SelfPublishingAdvice.org. Alli's "watchdog list" of the best and worst publishing services companies is an invaluable resource.

How can we serve you today?
