Megacles has a pretty good life. Also, she is horny, lonely, bored, anxious, and a bit of a drunk. She decides to fix all this with science. It works okay, until she accidentally builds a doomsday device. At least she’s not bored anymore.

Mr. President has inherited a broke, corrupt, government. Unemployment is high, nobody pays taxes, the healthcare system is collapsing, and the government is using systemic blackmail to cover it up. He has a plan to fix it all, he just needs to steal a trillion dollars to get started.

Super Science and Fast Romance is a near future, science fiction, romantic comedy, political psychodrama. It’s fun. It teaches how to fix everyday problems with lasers, evil robots, and mass hallucinations. These solutions work really well. Only a couple people die.

Any money made by this book will be spent on drugs and super hot lasers. <<less

Welcome dear friends, to the Virtual Reality Full Immersion System called Bookworld Online!

This is your chance to live the lives of your favorite characters from your favorite stories. Not only can you complete the stories as they exist and live the actual life the character lived, you can also diverge from the known canon of information and forge a new path for your favorite character to follow.

I know this sounds too good to be true, and in some respects it is. You will only be given choices during key moments and not on a constant basis, since our computers can only handle so many requests at one time. Some scenes and actions are done by default in order to keep the narrative going... however... if you diverge too far from the normal story lines or choose an original story based on the characters and their lives, then the process can become even more exciting for you, the player.

So, will you relive what you know and only change a single moment or will you branch out on your own and see what our team of writers can come up with for you to experience?

It is all up to you! <<less

Imagine a world where you can live the life of your favorite fictional characters.

Where you can gain actual superpowers, live in a fantastical world filled with villains and adventures, and have fun battling it out with other fellow geeks.... more>>

In the virtual reality world known as the Escapist Dream, all of this can be possible for a price – once you get in, you can never get out.

A Japanese otaku and an American geek would become trapped inside, and forced to fight for survival against computer viruses and other crazed players that had taken over the virtual reality world. Would their new-found powers and teamwork be enough?

For what they didn't know, behind this malfunctioning virtual reality world, hides an even darker evil. One who is all-powerful, sadistic, and possibly eldritch... <<less

Caleb knew his life was weird. There were only so many times you could spend a space-journey immersed in a fictional game world before you just knew your life to be weird. But an astrogator only needs to do so much. Calculate a few numbers, and then be on-call in case of any undetected small object that was going to collide with the ship. Even so, few people had the intuition for the calculations, and few people could entertain themselves for the multi-year journeys that dominated space-travel, even with all the entertainment options available on a space-ship specially equipped to draw an astrogator's attention. So, Caleb had a very reliable job, and if his life... more>> was weird, well... people still paid him for it.

Your name is David Drake and you are a 10 year old slave to the Marsh Hag. You were bought from your parents when you were only a small child at two years old. You don't really remember your old family at all. That's a good thing, since you would hate them on sight for selling you to her. All you've know for your whole life is pain. You are usually quickly healed and receive a lot of training and experience as her unofficial apprentice.

It's unofficial because she would never pay to have you registered as an actual apprentice. To everyone else, you are just the boy she took pity on and brought into her home. What they don't know is that you are much more than that. So much more.

You are her food. She uses you as her own personal buffet and she indulges herself quite often. You even have the permanent scars to prove it. You have learned many things from her, mostly without her knowing, since you have been helping more and more with her spell work the last few years and her potion making. The only parts you can't do are the magic condensing rituals that her potions require and the mana infusions that a lot of her other creations need.

Do you wish to initiate the Main Storyline with these parameters?

Second Note: I changed this story to a fan fiction. It is based on Swamp Boy (https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/4342/swamp-boy). The old story (on another site) is about 4 years old and was dropped after 19 long chapters. The author hasn't been online since then, so I figured it was safe to do my own take on it. <<less

It is the Virtual 2040's. Our protagonist wakes up face-down in the sands of the Shores of Awakening - a starter area of their favorite VRMMO, Another World Online: Mundane Phantasy Historia - as avatar Deedee Yeowoo, a foxgirl healer. Something's wrong - she can't log out, and as part of the lategame raiding guild, Dungeon-Crawling And Chill, shouldn't be at first level. Moreover, she's not alone - at least some of her friends in the guild, as well as the wide-eyed newbie streamer Ace Striker, are along for the ride. ... more>>

How can they survive such an adventure friendly - which is to say, violent and monster-filled - world? Why are they here? And why does this avatar feel more comfortable to Deedee Yeowoo's player than her real life body ever did?

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.
Children of Time by Adrien Tchaikovsky
We are Legion (Bobiverse) by Dennis E. Taylor

It is the Virtual 2040's, and Deedee Yeowoo is still trapped in the milleu of Another World Online, Mundus. Having escaped the tutorial island, the Shores of Awakening, with her guildmates in free company Dungeon-Crawling And Chill, they found that there's a growing refugee camp of player characters outside of the port hub city of Viacruz, in numbers that would dwarf a Roman Legion.... more>>

With only the goodwill they earned from fighting for the Mundanes against a group of Player Character slavers, they need to survive in what's becoming a rapidly more expensive city as sellswords, without upsetting the people or the politics of the city too much - or earning the displeasure of her mayor, the Contessa Desolar.

Meanwhile, things about the situation aren't adding up, and the locals are rather more able to pass a Turing test than they were before the disaster that stranded a server full of minds on Mundus. And the answers to the questions Deedee's party are seeking about how the Translation happened might be found in the same place that the Contessa desperately needs a small group of Adventurers to investigate...
