Characters are named for bronze age cultures present in Italy, because I couldn't think of a better naming scheme. Cover image is just the flag of the 18th century Roman Republic. I felt a tricolour would be fitting, but France would be too blatant, and I'm already using italian-ish names. So, the flag of a Napoleonic puppet state in Italy! As with most of the stuff I publish to this site, this is terribly pretentious. You have been warned.

The land of Gemeinplatz is a land filled with fantastical creatures, adventurers looking to slay them, and heroes looking to distinguish themselves from the adventurers. The most common of these heroes are those who come from Earth, who enjoy a most leisurely time with their cheat skills. It’s a perfect world, the utopia of those who wish to become overpowered and get their own power fantasy, where even the most everyman of the everyman can pull themselves by their bootstraps and become a hero.

Yet, underneath this “Gemeinplatzer Dream” is a disgusting truth.

To satisfy the needs of heroes who can’t find function like a normal human being (which most of them can’t), the lucrative Gemeinplatz slave trade crushes the dreams and ruins the lives of hundreds every day. These slaves endlessly labor, in the harems of so-called heroes, at the mansions of the landowning “heroes”, and as rare materials for various magical spells.

In a world that looks down at them as demi-human, where the ruling class has no incentive to end this profitable trade, in which their oppressors are overpowered as all hell, what hope is there for the slaves?

What hope is there, is named John Brown. This time, he’ll finish what he started. <<less

A sci-fi space adventure involving mysteries, aliens, and explorers terraforming planets. ... more>>

Trillion wasn’t expecting to have her mind uploaded into a spaceship today. But it happened and now there’s no turning back for her and three others.
The four of them now travel through space, looking for new worlds to terraform - looking to build A New Eden.
Their hasty departure meant they weren’t prepared for what they encountered out in space. They discovered mysteries they needed to solve. They entered battles they didn’t have a hope of winning. And, they needed to find creative solutions to problems they didn’t know were possible.

Should I read this book?:
YES. If you like a good sci-fi space adventure that’s a mix of action/mystery/thriller/science. No ‘lit-RPG’ here.

Books this is similar to.

We are Legion (Bobiverse) by Dennis E. Taylor

This story is a spiritual successor to Path of the Outsiders (link). Reading it will help, but it's not required.... more>>

Eric Breeden is a hard worker. This showed when he was pulled to the World of Ahya to defend its peace. He adapted quickly, learning new skills, and soon became a warrior of some skill. After a brief death and a long break, he returns to help finish the job.

Megan Richards, with memories planted to aid her transition, suffers from a unique type of magic that involves another soul. She quickly masters this unique trait, however, and soon turns her skill towards helping Samuel Bragg and Eric Breeden fend off an invading enemy and restore balance.

These two ordinary people are now hailed as great heroes all across Ahya. Their story is spoken around campfires and sung by the bards. The only problem? With the sudden end to their mission, they're bored. They also don't want to leave Ahya behind and return to their normal lives. So they ask to stay and are granted permission.

Read Curse of the Outsiders to continue the great tale once spun. What will these two heroes do now that they have no grave prophecy spurring on their actions? Well, Eric wants to start a mercenary outfit. Megan wants to open a potion shop. Together, along with a few friends, they plan to start their new lives, which promise to be much more fulfilling than what they left behind.

“You sure about this?” I looked dubiously up at the towering gate in front of us, surrounded by trees.... more>>

Hector shrugged. “Did you have another destination in mind?”

“Not a city?” I suggested without much hope.

Hector narrowed his eyes at me. “Where else do you suggest we find work? We’re soldiers. Besides, this one has trees. I thought you liked trees.”

I scowled up at the massive redwoods like they had personally offended me. “Cities don’t deserve trees.”

At that moment, I never would have guessed that I would still be there two years later, holding the rank of Captain and investigator, willing to lose everything for the people within its walls, and plunged into a conspiracy that threatened to take all that I loved. <<less

They deserve what happens to them.... more>>

Ever since they enslaved us, ever since they shackle us underground to bring them their ore or chain above ground to harvest their grain. We suffered, while they fattened their bellies. No more, now we deserve justice. We will ravage through their countryside, we shall burn their homes, and slaughter their young. For now, our rebellion has begun.

The time of my people’s slavery ends with me for I will lead my people to greatness. The Cinari will do anything to stop me, with their ancient war machines and pathetic armies. But I will push them back and claim what is rightfully mine. We built their Empire with our blood and tears. It is time we take it back.

When I was a slave, they called me M-24:6.

But as a free man, they know me as Marak.

Rich land owner, Grimwald, once leisurely spending his time hunting and practicing with a sword, with nary a worry in the world, all of a sudden became riches to rags after a painful familial betrayal.
With no one there to protect him from a cruel technicality, and only able to take what he can carry from his land; he sets out with little more than clothes on his back, provisions and bitterness. His life turned into a monotony of dealing with low-lives, greedy merchants and shady characters.
Like in a mad unending loop, he resentfully struggles to find a way to make enough coin for day-by-day life.
After taking out his pent-up anger on a... more>> couple belligerent drunks, a mysterious man sat next to him.
"Wouldn't you rather do something that matters? With a band of loyal brothers?" He asked.
"Oh yeah? Like what? You've got something better to do?" With a gulp from his tankard, Grimwald dismissed the man.
"Things you can't ever tell anyone." The man, unbothered by his attitude, continued.
