When Chaos Becomes Fiction – and Hits #2 After Stephen King

What happens when ambition, media obsession, and public shame collide in a post-truth world?

The Chasing of the Last Lover is a sharp, darkly funny debut novel that explores the price of visibility and the strange theatre of modern fame. It’s part satire, part psychological spiral – and it’s already making waves.

📚 As of April 2025, the novel ranks #2 on UK Talk Radio’s Best Books of 2025, right after Stephen King. That’s not a PR stunt – it’s a reader-voted chart, making the recognition even more special.

Written by Ariana Damon (a pseudonym for a Swedish literary duo), the novel follows Damon Achamani – a charismatic but dangerously self-assured TV producer whose career takes a surreal nosedive after a single mistake. What follows is a whirlwind of digital fallout, identity unraveling, and dark revelations that blur the line between manipulation and self-delusion.

If you enjoy novels that are fast-paced but layered – think Don’t Look Up meets Black Mirror, with a Scandinavian sensibility – this might be your next read.

📖 The Chasing of the Last Lover is available now on Amazon in both English and Swedish:

🎧 The audiobook is also out on Storytel, BookBeat and Nextory. An English-language version is coming soon to Audible.

This isn’t just a debut – it’s a bold literary experiment in how far we’ll go for attention, and what happens when the spotlight burns too hot.
