About The Soul Dam

The Soul Dam is a serialized science-fiction universe exploring karma, reincarnation, and impossible physics. The story follows souls navigating a cosmic bureaucracy that manages reincarnation across the universe.

In this universe, karma is real, measurable, and enforced by an ancient system known as the Soul Dam. When someone accumulates too much negative karma, the system triggers consequences that ripple across lifetimes and star systems.

This is not a traditional blog or novel. The Soul Dam is a living story universe with three types of content:

• Main Story Chapters: The primary narrative, released in chronological order
• Lore & Worldbuilding: Deep dives into species, technology, and cosmic rules
• Extras: Short explainers, field notes, and author commentary

New content is released every 1-3 days. You can start with Chapter 1 and read chronologically, or explore the lore independently.

The Soul Dam is written by Eric Hart. The project combines serious science fiction worldbuilding with humor, heart, and a healthy dose of cosmic bureaucracy satire.

Think The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy meets The Good Place, with a dash of hard sci-fi worldbuilding. The Soul Dam is:

• Smart, strange, and sometimes serious
• Accessible to middle-school readers but not childish
• Cosmic in scale with bureaucratic satire
• Funny without being silly
