Rapture is a young man born into a small world. A hut, a lake, a forest, all barred with walls of towering wood, that is all he has ever known.... more>>

Yet the day soon arrives when those walls must come down, and the boy is thrust into the wider reality that lay beyond.

The world outside is vast, yet cold and empty. Bathed in the ashes of the world tree, more than mortal men toil at the mercy of oft indifferent and sometimes malevolent Gods.

There are those who fight those Gods.
There are those who worship the Gods.
Then there are those who care nothing for the Gods and bid to fight amongst each other instead.

Many vast Empires and great Kingdoms litter the dying landscape of this world, with more to come as the tides sweep in, then leave in their wake the ruins of decimated civilisations.

This is the world into which Rapture wakes, a world into which he must now find his place, and a world for which his mere existence will ripple into war, a world that was already on the brink of ruin before he even awoke, and will likely not be made better by the path he is destined to tread. <<less

A tale of a young girl struggles in search of a peaceful life will now begin!

Missing memories, gunshots in the alley, a man in a bat costume, a woman in a bat costume...

But in the city of darkness, there are some people whom people call heroes or protectors... Yet, when the time comes, they hesitate to make the difficult decision. All they do is put the criminals behind bars only for them to break out and commit crimes again... Not on my watch...

But all the threats are so much human...

Coulta was born with a curse, one that forces him to obey the commands of those with authority over him. At only five years old, his father gives him up into service of a powerful lord, hoping to give Coulta a better life. But it was a mistake. Varin turns Coulta into an assassin, someone who can't stop himself from killing even the most innocent person he was commanded to murder. Despite the pain of a life out of his control, Coulta does have hope; hope that he will one day meet the person his mother claimed would free him of his curse.... more>>

Wildas is the Crown Prince of Phelin. He has known nothing but luxury and comfort, not the pain and suffering of a cursed killer. He has no idea that his life is in danger, that assassins are lurking in the shadows of the next city he will visit on behalf of the Crown. Nor does he know that his very soul is tied to one of those assassins, a tie that not even death could ever break.

Together they will discover that even chance encounters have meaning, and that their own personal struggles are nothing compared to what is to come when their kingdom is launched into a civil war that puts all of lives in danger. Only by relying on each other will they have any chance of survival.

"Johnny, don't leave me, you said you will love me forever!"... more>>

Those words didn't stop Johnny Morrel from leaving the elf mafia boss Filarion Elathana, the head of the Elathana family. And, over what? Just because of the small family business that Filarion is running. He just supplies adventurer's guild drop-outs with weapons and potions. It is a lucrative business, by far. One that has spread all over the Roarin Empire.

"You said you are no fool, that you are not a chump"

Those words ended up with Johnny warding his house, and sending Filarion's things back via a delivery man. Maybe, if Filarion had not held a knife at Johnny's throat as he said them, things would have gone differently, but Filarion was an optimist.

"I will have your heart on a platter!"

These words were followed by a court order, a restraining order, and the emperor looking into Filarion's dealings. Now, the Elathana family is at risk of being exposed, and send to prison. So, Filarion sent Johnny one last letter, to express his fillings for the human adventurer, who moonlighted as a tank.

"They will bust your knee caps!"

A short note, but from the heart. One that made Johnny hire a necromancer to guard him, as much as Adam doesn't like the job. Or Johnny's paranoia.

A crack novel, with a yandare male elf, who wants to get back together with his human lover, despite his tendency of putting his foot in his mouth. With adventuring and yes, redemption. For once, a happy ending for the yandare.

A young provincial thief of no particular renown has his life of crime changed in a day. He ‘stumbles’ upon a huge pile of gold for starters and soon after a dead man carrying a letter of 'royal' interest. Literally. While at it he ‘earns’ a title of sorts, along the promise of a life out of the gutter. Before he can properly appreciate the dramatic turn of his fortunes, he’s drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that threatens to embroil two continents in a devastating war.... more>>

The whole affair seems to cry out for a gallant hero of old, or failing that a cunning diplomat, but he’s neither. Perhaps a lying scoundrel, which our lad definitely is, would have to suffice. He does ‘acquire’ a dagger that knows a dead language after all and that must count for something.

Cami, a Girl and a Planet. Synopsis
On TI LEPUS, a planet in a galaxy called Markers Star, one of many galaxies and planets that... more>> are part of an Empire ruled by The DARK LORD, thirteen year old CAMI SIS NEP takes a lunch to her mother where she is working. While there, CAMI is surprised to be asked to carry out a simple duty, one which she does not realise is actually a test. After leaving her mother, CAMI worries about what happened and thinks over her life. This leads her to the decision that she will do whatever she needs to do to better herself and resolves to let nothing get in her way.
The surprise test results in CAMI being offered a contract in a salon called the Trigon Club located in LEPUS MAL the capital of TI LEPUS. These salons are a way for young girls to enter houses of people of high status or gaining other contracts. After she turns fourteen CAMI moves to the capital where she works at the club and meets CHEAINE DRESSILER, the wife of RENTAP DRESSILER. CHEAINE takes an option on CAMIS contract and returns the next day with her husband. They accept CAMIS contract and she becomes part of their family.
Life is good for CAMI and it seems that she has obtained the first of her goals, that is bettering herself, but there are other forces at work. Unrest, fostered by professional agitators NIKIE and KIRKRUP DI FRIM, is becoming dangerous. The two work undercover for Councillor LEJA LEVES who is the actual leader of the agitation and is hungry for power. NIKIE, who knows and hates CHEAINE, has another idea, to create and train a group of suicide assassins.
The DARK LORD has sensed all this and returns to Tihab, the administrative center of the empire. With him are some of the LADIES OF THE CIRCLE who are his closest advisors. In a bid to reduce the tension and unrest he sends six of the LADIES as his ambassadors to Ti Lepus. Before they can arrive, the DRESSILERS and LORENA MAKAPET, Rentaps mistress are murdered in an act of terror inspired by NIKIE DI FRIM. CAMI SIS NEP escapes and go’s on the run. She makes her way to NETHER WEST where the underclass, who are workers of the lowest status live. ILARI NE PATOR, one of the leaders of the underclass tries to help CAMI but she is stabbed in an attack. The DARK LORD arrives, heals CAMI using his powers and then returns to his palace on Tihab taking CAMI with him.
While CAMI is convalescing in the palace, the Ambassadors arrive at Ti Lepus to try to negotiate with LEVES. Meetings between the ambassadors and LEJA LEVES, now Chief Minister, are unsuccessful and a deadline is imposed. Before the deadline expires, the DARK LORD arrives and speaks with other leaders of the planet who are opposed to LEJA LEVES. These include TREM DE MARKUS who has organised a group of the planets leaders as they realise that LEVES will also murder them. The DARK LORD also brings CAMI SIS NEP who speaks to all the planets population explaining what happened and revealing who ordered the murders of the DRESSILARS as well as speaking against all their societies’ unfair rules. She is so effective that her speech sparks a revolt against the many problems that plague their society. TREM DE MARKUS and his supporters begin the process of reforming the planets society. The DARK LORD gives them one thousand years to complete the process and hides the planet behind a story that he destroyed it.
CAMI leaves TI LEPUS with the DARK LORD as she realises that if she stays she would become the focus of resentment and a focal point for the forces that will be resisting change to rally against. The DARK LORD sends her, her two sisters and two of her brothers who he has collected along with some others to another planet in another galaxy. There she finishes growing up and finds love. <<less
