Gnostic
Vampire
Media
Strange books. Clear ideas. Public knowledge.
“A publishing company should feel like a point of view.”
The House
A small press with a clear mandate.
Gnostic Vampire Media is an independent literary house developing fiction, educational projects, and civic resources for readers who value imagination in combination with substance. The house publishes under three imprints, all unified by a shared design philosophy: clean pages, serious presentation, and ideas that earn their place on every one.
Science treated as load-bearing. The reader treated as an adult.
Original Fiction
Novels and novellas that take ideas seriously — science fiction, speculative, and literary work where imagination earns its keep through rigorous thinking and earned emotion.
Physics & Education
Concept guides for curious non-specialists. Science treated as load-bearing. No jargon as a barrier; precision as a feature. Written to be accurate without being forbidding.
Civic Information
Public knowledge resources designed for clarity and accessibility. The reader treated as an adult. Democracy depends on an informed public — this imprint exists for that.

Original Fiction
Death Orbit
A Novel
Science Fiction · Thriller
A NASA astronaut investigates impossible timeline anomalies and uncovers a hidden intelligence quietly reshaping humanity through the systems built to protect it.
Death Orbit is a first-contact thriller that asks what happens when the systems designed to protect civilization become the mechanism of its transformation. Set against the operational reality of deep-space research and orbital mechanics, it treats consciousness, infrastructure, and identity as the genuine stakes of scientific discovery — not metaphors for them.
Original Fiction
The Silver Signal
Le Phare
Literary Science Fiction · Mystery
A literary science-fiction mystery set in Paris in 1979, where mirrors reveal impossible lives and memory begins to fracture under neon light.
The Silver Signal moves between memory and identity, using the physics of light reflection as a structural metaphor for how consciousness constructs its history. Paris in 1979 as a world where the neon is not decoration but symptom — and where the question of what is real becomes impossible to separate from what is felt.

Physics & Education
Physics Hub — Vol. I
Physics concept guides for curious non-specialists, written to be precise without being forbidding. Volume I covers mechanics, motion, and the physics of systems people actually encounter — from orbital dynamics to the thermodynamics of living things. Avoiding jargon as a barrier; using precision as a feature.

The Author
Frank Ureña
Frank Ureña brings a biomedical science and translational research background to writing that explores where systems meet people. He is a PhD immunologist, Harvard and MGH postdoctoral fellow, and MD candidate — training that gives his fiction its structural and scientific precision without robbing it of ambiguity.
He writes about identity, infrastructure, consciousness, and civilization-shaping systems with the rigor of a researcher and the instincts of a reader. Gnostic Vampire Media is his publishing imprint — a house built around the conviction that strange books and serious ideas belong together, and that the reader deserves both.
