Book Two in the Let Chaos Reign storm series ~
Unruly hair aside, the sneaking out and turbulent ride over here seemed overall smoother than usual. Which, in my experience, usually means there is still something that is inevitable to go wrong. If it hasn't already, then it will. Guaranteed. Every. Damn. Time.... more>>

I start to pace, my mind going back through tonight's events, wondering if I might have missed something. Maybe he forgot… I don't know why I think that every time.

This cave is one of the very scarce constants in this landscape of dancing destruction. The Scar is always persistently changing, yet not, the tornados wreaking havoc in their predictably twisting and reckless ways.

The Scar remains a weird kind of maze of canyons and ravines that have been continuously carved by endless parades of swirling pillars of dust, dirt, debris, and anything else that gets caught up in it. Tornadoes dictate the landscape for miles on all sides, some taking the same paths over and over, enough so that mapping them has been a tedious, yet not impossible, task for nearly a full decade now. For the research cartographers and various elders of specific areas of expertise... Not me, specifically.

I'm just a TumbleTech.

The Tumbler is a magnificent little creation that essentially acts as storm debris at the very least, personalized rocket at most, depending on the size of the fuel tank and the kick behind the thrusters on a 360° rotation. Also, it can tow a two-ton wreckage comb like it’s nothing–those handy debris-collecting honey-comb-looking cages the Rovers use to scavenge for treasures of an ancient world. <<less

The failure of AI Soldiers in the year 2766 known as "Metalforces" made by the first government in Crowfield was a downfall. They went berserk... more>> and spread all over the world.

Angels made-for-war joined together to stop the continuing machinery war that had been continued for over 200 years. <<less

Karl is a beer-loving, beard-having dwarf working for Deep Rock Galactic, an intergalactic mining company, on a resource-rich yet equally dangerous planet known as Hoxxes IV.

In late 2023, unknown insects began to swarm the earth. They reproduced and mutated rapidly, leaving devastation in their wake. They ravaged human life, ending the world as we knew it, leaving nothing more than death and destruction. These swarms infected communities, which turned humans savage, violent, and hungry for blood. They desecrated the earth, eroding it into uninhabitable wasteland. ... more>>

More than three centuries after the insects first invaded, Selene Jackson is living daily life doing administrative work in the underground bunker where she was born and raised. After several years of doing the same menial work, she grows dissatisfied with her life. She finds work tedious and her boyfriend inattentive, slowly beginning to crave experiencing the world outside the bunker.

Eventually, she earns a trial run as a Huntress—a group of inhabitants that traverse outside in search of supplies, survivors, or to remove any threats. Becoming a Huntress means Selene must work closely with her brother's best friend, the notorious King Belmont.

When Selene's brother goes missing during an expedition outside the bunker walls, she makes it her mission to find him and bring him back home safely at any cost. This sets her and King off on the most dangerous adventure of their lives, turning both their worlds completely upside down. This upheaval makes them question everything they've ever known, including those they trust the most.

The Tides of Luna is a story about survival and strength, and the beauty that can blossom from those moments of darkness. <<less

Terry Barclay is a directionless young man. While a talented musician, he has no prospects for a career in his isolated, country town. Fortunately, an organization called Skyfleet is recruiting, an exploratory and peacekeeping armada of flying ships. One which is manned by humans and creatures alike.... more>>

After only two years of service, he will be able to join Skyfleet's Orchestra of Lights. Though before he can get there, his path will intercept the intrigue of the greater world and its colorful characters. These include a cantankerous dwarven scientist, a radicalized socialist princess, a rock golem dreaming of being a star chef, a snarky former pirate, a mysterious priest, and a friendly queen of a hive of giant insects who also have a love for music.

As a threat from over the horizon digs into the shadows, will Skyfleet and its new recruits be able to rise to the challenge? Or will the flying armada crash and burn, taking the republic it serves down with it? The future is always up for grabs... if it speaks in half-truths.

DISCLAIMER -

For those of you reading right now, I feel the compulsion, no the need to make something abundantly clear to you.

This is the story of my Creations, my Children, and my Thoughts.

I want you to understand that the worlds I shape with my Ink may be unbelievable at times. They may have over the top fight scenes, crushing emotions, and even outlandish fan service at times.

But the stakes you see in front of you are very real.

I may bend the Fate of my children, both for my own entertainment and their own good. But that should not devalue them, as they are just as tangible as us. There every action has just as much weight and meaning as what we do ourselves.

In this world, they will kick and struggle for what they truly want, and along the way, they will lose things that can never be replaced.

So, at the end of all this, I must remind you that you are only seeing what I’m showing you, and the that there is more to come… <<less

Vildra is a simple dragon. All she wants to do is to dig out a nice little den where she can sleep through the winters. A home fit for someone like herself!
So what if the mountain she chose just so happens to hold riches unseen before. She'll ignore it as she always does, like with that city next door, or those "suitors" who graciously feed her, or that voice that whispers to her in her sleep.
The only things she won't ignore are those centipedes that always seem to find a way in. If only they weren't so cute!... more>>
