The Human Beast

In a world where power means authority, everyone strives to become stronger. Wang Han is no different; he shares the same general goal: to grow stronger. But he's not exceptional, merely the nephew of a third-tier clan leader, with talent that wouldn't even be considered average by the standards of a simple empire. He has only one advantage, or perhaps two. He uses his intellect in a world where many think with their muscles, and he disregards the means to achieve his goals. Is it possible for someone like him to reach the top of the world as he hopes? Follow Wang Han's journey to the summit... or the abyss.

The Smiling Sword

Diversity is humanity’s greatest weapon. A million minds, a million ways to survive, a million ways to die. But in the face of death, everyone unifies. Everyone begs the dark for a God. My name is Sword. It wasn’t always, but I now can’t remember what it was before the Facility took it. I was kidnapped from a normal life and thrown into a place built to grind people into weapons: trials, monsters, human hunters, and choices that rot your morals. Survive, and you earn another day. Fail, and you vanish. Now I’m a soldier with one purpose: war and slaughter. This is my story. (Dark Sci-fi Progression Fantasy)

And, throughout it all, the tool, Maz, must walk the blurry line between fact and fiction, love and hatred, virtue and villany, if there was ever a line at all. Above all else, Maz must navigate the line between his self and his purpose as a tool. ************************************************* You can also read on Novellek or Royal Road My progress on Novellek is slower but I am trying to migrate the novel onto those platforms as well.

Overseer - [Psychological Urban Fantasy]

Every criminal in Anderis dreams of being hired as a Receiver for the Syndicate. And for good reason: they'd be guaranteed work and pay, gain a fearsome reputation, and, for those few gifted with supernatural abilities, they'd be granted free rein to use their powers. However, for the former-office worker—codenamed Rookie—the Syndicate's Retirement Scheme is all that matters. "50,000 shares. That's all I need to erase myself from the outside world. Past, Present, and Future... I'll leave it all behind." But with tensions rising between the nation's factions, rumblings of another War, and the headache-inducing voices he keeps hearing—cracks have formed in the thatched walls of Rookie's life, making way for his past to come pouring through. One dreadful wave after the other. Will Rookie attain the freedom he desperately desires? Or will he instead be drowned beneath the crushing tides of his past? - Current release schedule will be daily: from Monday to Friday at 17:30 GMT. - Backlog is about 250k words. So this story won’t be disappearing/going on hiatus for a good while! Cover Art by @NadiaDibaj
