Isaac is the only remaining reactor technician of what was once a massive colony ship seeking out a new home planet. Humanity has been forced among the stars. After a cataclysmic event that renders their home world sterile, those who remain blast off and organizes into a single flotilla with a single goal: find a new home to ensure the survival of the human race. But old habits die hard, and despite the dire circumstances, factions form in a bid to claim absolute dominion over the flotilla.

Being among the small group of survivors, Issac and the rest of his crew stumble upon an ancient star ship floating in the outer rim of the flotilla's perimeter.

The beings within the craft threaten to wipe out the newly-arrived inhabitants of the ship. With his people again in peril, he quests to save them and stumbles upon secrets of the flotilla long-lost amid the turmoil and chaos of conflict and discovers that he alone holds the key to his people's salvation and the safety of the rest of humanity itself. <<less

Alex's ordinary life is shattered when an explosion of magic nearly destroys the Museum of Natural History, revealing to her that magic really exists. Suddenly propelled into the Sanctum, a prestigious academy for the magically gifted, Alex finds herself entangled in a rigid hierarchy far removed from anything she's known.... more>>

In "Alex Paige: The Red Sanctum," the first installment in the "Alex Paige" trilogy, Alex must forge alliances, challenge adversaries, and unravel a series of mysterious deaths that look a little to convenient to be mere accident.

"Alex Paige: The Red Sanctum" weaves a captivating tale of discovery, friendship, and the relentless pursuit of truth, inviting readers to join Alex as she steps into a realm where the line between ally and enemy blurs, and where her newfound powers could either illuminate the path to the Truth, or serve as her own path to demise. <<less

For Heather Morell, nightmares and hallucinations lurk around every corner, relics of schizophrenia and childhood bereavement.... more>>

Until she meets Raine and Evelyn, that is — self-proclaimed bodyguard and bad-tempered magician — and learns she’s not insane at all. The spirits and monsters she sees are all too real, the god-thing in her nightmares is teaching her how to surpass human limits, and her twin sister who supposedly never existed could still be alive, somewhere Outside, beyond the walls of reality.

Heather plunges into a world of eldritch magic and fanatic cultists, trying to stay alive, stay sane, and deal with her own blossoming attraction to dangerous women. But being ‘In The Know’ isn’t all terror and danger. Sometimes the monsters wear nice dresses and stick around for afternoon tea. Sometimes you find you have more in common with them than you think. Perhaps this is Heather’s chance to be something more than the defeated husk she’d grown up as, to find real friendship and meaning among things like herself - and perhaps, out there on the rim of the possible, to bring her twin sister back from the dead.

[Volume 1] Rosalie Edgeworth: the queen bee of Lassen Academy and Janet Fleming’s two-faced nemesis. Why does the school seem to revolve around Rosalie? How can Prince Blaise not see her for the bitch she really is? And why won’t the Prince even listen to Janet’s side of it? In the aftermath of Rosalie’s latest schemes, Janet finds the answer in unexpected allies: ghost-clones of herself, a weird little-sister shop owner, a bespectacled folklore otaku, a sluggard knight, three ghost-obsessed girls, and two former saintess candidates, among others. Meeting these people leads Janet to the truth about Rosalie’s identity and a dangerous conspiracy surrounding her.... more>>

[Volume 2] Lady Lilian Dorian has been impersonating Rosalie Edgeworth to keep control of the Prince and Classroom 1-3C with rumors, sex, and spells. After uncovering the truth, Janet and her school mates find themselves outnumbered and in need of allies.

Despite the hellish training, Janet plays Lady Dorian’s two-faced game a little too well for Lady Dorian to take things lying down. <<less

Book 3 in the Nath’aniel Series
With the Lost Nazi Legion defeated, peaceful contact established to much of the tribes of the Savage Lands and... more>> SHIELD cautiously acknowledging the sovereignty of Nath’aniel and the Magi, what is next for him and his friends the Brotherhood of Mutants? Will they be left alone? Or will splinter groups and hidden threats rear their heads to lash out at them from odd angles? What is next for a Mage and his Servants?
----------------------------------------------------------------
This story is the continuation for ‘A Mage in the Savage Lands’, but it is also highly suggested if you haven’t read ‘A Knight and the Raven’ then you may want to do that first as there are several new faces in the Brotherhood added in that side story. This book is about as long as the second novel, but unfortunately it is not complete at time of posting (work and life distracting me).
As such I will be slower in posting for a bit till the first draft is complete, namely only 2 chapters a week, instead of 3, but once the first draft is finished (hopefully only a couple of weeks), I will return to a 3 chapters a week release. I want reliable posting, rather than rushed and sloppy.
Sexual Content is ticked, because in this novel unlike the last one there are a couple of explicit scenes. They are not full chapters but the shorter Interludes and are marked with a (NSFW) in their chapter title. Gore is ticked, because again, these are generally super humans fighting and killing regular people, so it can be a bit messy. Strong Language is ticked, because some of these characters just have a potty mouth and swear.
Each chapter will be between 2500 and 3000 words, while interludes will be shorter (around 1500-1800 words). [Note I do not include the chapter line nor the following two lines (the header) in my personal word count, so it may be about 15-20 words longer]
Updates will be on Tue and maybe Sat (or Sun).

James Brooks is an average high schooler in New Atlantis, a city teeming with superhumans. Despite his dad being an ex-hero and his sister Ren a genius scientist, James often feels overlooked, seeking refuge as a top battle mage in "Endless Fantasy II," an online game.... more>>

His life takes an unexpected turn when he walks away unharmed from a superhuman fight. James discovers he can morph into his game character, but with a catch: his avatar is a female demoness.

The setting is an alternate 2013 shaped by a Cold War experiment gone wrong, granting a fraction of people superpowers. However, this story isn't about superheroes; it's a blend of Mystical and Urban Fantasy, focusing on magical and mysterious elements that stay hidden from most of the world.

Anyways, as I'm not a native English speaker and this will be an experiment on my part, I will rely on AI as an editor & proofreader. If this doesn't bother you, then feel free to stay. Also, keep in mind this is my first attempt at writing something, so the way I write might change as I experiment with different styles.

Having the power of a god isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. On top of handling a god’s many responsibilities, Alouin has to contend with the fact that reality is quickly coming to an end. Isn’t that just wonderful?... more>>

The Eternal War:

Raimie has been living a nice, boring existence in a safe corner of the woods until he comes across a random sword in the forest, and after that, everything changes. On the run from a powerful magic wielder, he’s forced to accept that he’s the last heir to a royal line, foretold to cast down the ancient evil suppressing his family’s native land. The invisible beings trailing his every step, along with the suspiciously magical anomalies they prompt in him, aren’t helping with that goal. Oh, and if that weren’t enough, the nightmares he’s had all his life have twisted into something weird and yet surprisingly familiar.

Thank the gods for family and the new friend he’s made along the way. Maybe things will turn out ok, if he could get a moment to think.

Oh, nope. There’s another threat coming to wreck his life. Time to run again.

******
This story was initially released on Royal Road.

It will start out very stereotypically for the first few chapters (for epic fantasy at least). If you can tolerate a couple of seeming tropes (i.e. the Chosen One etc.) for 5 or so chapters, I promise that The Eternal War will diverge into much more interesting storylines. I like writing slow burns, taking my time to establish characters etc., before getting into the exciting bits of a story. I also thoroughly enjoy trying to subvert tropes, although how successful I am with that is up to the individual reader, of course.

I will update the book every day until volume one is complete, and after that, I'll switch to a Wednesday/Saturday release schedule. <<less

Kaz is a kobold, just trying to survive, grow, and protect his tribe. But his efforts are about to become complicated, as dragons are nesting in a cave nearby, and humans are seeking an ancient, deadly secret in his mountain. Join Kaz as he finds out what magic and cultivation are, gets up close and personal with a dragon of his own, and delves deep into the mountain to find secrets... and a freedom he never dared to hope for.... more>>

**The Broken Knife is slow burn and will end up with at least two hundred chapters. It has a weak to strong MC, and I hope you enjoy reading about Kaz's growth as much as I enjoy writing it!**

**NOTE: There are brief depictions of slavery in an escape arc from chapters 90-119. It is neither exploitative nor glorified, but you may want to skim or skip this section if you are uncomfortable with even references to this topic.**

Note: I'll try to release five chapters a week, Monday-Friday. If you can't wait, my Patreon is ten to thirty chapters ahead at any given time (depending on tier). I try to write five chapters a week, 2-3k words per chapter. <<less
