He must work together with a man in the past who he have killed his whole entire family in order to investigate his death, since because he's only a spirit now and doesn't have a body. ... more>>

The mafia boss is only a spirit now, so he can easily go anywhere he wants and not get spotted by anyone at all. However, other than the man that he is supposed to work with in order to investigate his death, no one else can hear or see him at all.

He would need the man's help on his investigation about his death, due to the man being able to talk with people and communicate with them in order to obtain information about his death.

The mafia boss and the man would have to work together by using each others' unique abilities; in order to help the mafia figure out how he have died.

However, would the man be willing to help out someone who have killed his whole entire family in the past? <<less

EXTRACT FROM THE BEGINNING OF BATTLE FOR THE PHOTON CORE [INTER-UNIVERSAL PROTECTORS: BOOK 1] (PUBLISHED VERSION) NOW AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE ON AMAZON... more>>

OFFICIAL BLURB
Five thousand years ago, ten items were hidden across Creation. Enchanted with magic from an age gone by, they had the power to open a door to a realm long since forgotten. When the items were used, they sealed away one of the greatest evils to ever walk the worlds.

The hunt for the items has begun. The stakes: free the evil or leave it trapped. Should it be freed, the Age of Darkness will begin. Nothing and no one can stop it, except for one: the holder of the opposite power, the power of good.

With the help of her friends and allies, the keeper of this power, Amneris Topanga, must track down all ten items before the followers of this great evil. But there's a catch. The items can only be used or destroyed when all ten are together.

Sounds simple enough, right?

Thirteen Keys to rule the world.
Only one Key to judge them all.... more>>

Ezra King may not have been the coolest, the tallest, or the most athletic, but he had always proven to be the most dependable. A persona that lent itself well to the mantle of class president. He was a junior in high school, and no one could deny his efforts - and neither could they get close enough to look behind his shiny facade.
Wherever darkness hid in plain sight, he would be there to enforce the will of his master, Ophiuchus. As his alter ego "Renegade", he would inevitably try and judge whoever was unlucky enough to find their name on his hit list.

But when someone in his personal life suddenly falls victim to a crime, he finds himself drawn into an endless loop of hiding and self-doubt, torn between conflicts of loyalty and feelings of pain he has never faced before. Was sleeping with men he'd just met the answer, or was he just running away from that one guy who suddenly burst into his life and never wanted to leave?
And will any of this even matter, as the Keys, which open the door to the underworld, are targeted by an unknown group of people? Now they need to keep all hell from breaking loose.

*UPDATES are going to be a bit funky on this one.

However, fate takes an unexpected turn one fateful day when Ashley meets a tragic end. She wakes up in her home with no memory of the event. Setting about as if nothing were amiss, she went through her daily routine, which was interrupted in dramatic fashion. To her bewilderment, Ashley is offered a chance at a second life. The gods have devised a grand amusement, an elaborate game where souls are granted the opportunity to be reborn, but only after proving their worth. In this mystical Tower, she must participate in challenges that mirror the plots of her beloved web novels, facing trials of courage, wisdom, and compassion.

As she delves deeper into this fantastical world, Ashley begins to unravel hidden truths about her past life and discovers the strength and courage she never knew she possessed. However, with each challenge, the boundaries between the afterlife and reality blur, forcing Ashley to question what is real and what is merely a creation for the gods' amusement.

However, a whisper shrouded in mystery reaches his ears—a tale of someone hauntingly similar to his deceased girlfriend, a revelation that shakes his understanding of reality.

In the midst of divine trials and celestial wonders, Anthony must confront his demons and unravel the layers of a world where souls are given a shot at redemption.
