The Chemistry of Healing

Olivia Hartwell is a scientist, not a hero. After a mysterious catastrophe tears her from modern England and strands her in the kingdom of Eldenoor, Olivia finds herself trapped in a world of magic, prophecy, and looming civil war. The first problem is survival. The second is finding a way home. Neither should involve treating wounded soldiers, arguing with healers, or questioning centuries of accepted medical knowledge. Yet as Olivia searches for answers, she discovers that healing magic can close wounds and mend broken bones while people still die from infection, disease, and poor care. For a scientist trained to look for causes rather than symptoms, the inconsistencies are impossible to ignore. Travelling with a company raising support for a prince seeking to reclaim his stolen kingdom, Olivia becomes entangled in a conflict she never wanted. Along the way she finds friendship, purpose, and reasons to care about a world she never intended to stay in. But some wounds leave scars no magic can erase. ________________________________________ A character-driven portal fantasy featuring medicine, magic, political intrigue, slow-burn romance, and the collision of scientific thinking with a world shaped by magic.

The Crimson Mageless

In the kingdom of Ashbourne, magic is everything in this world. For seventeen-year-old Alistar Fenwick, that's a major problem. Every test he has ever taken has returned the same result: Mana Detection: Negative. In a world where power determines worth, Alistar is an anomaly, an outcast, a young man seemingly incapable of using even the simplest of spell. Yet against all logic, he receives an acceptance letter from the kingdom's most prestigious school, a place that trains mages, scholars, and future heroes of the kingdom. As he prepares to leave behind the quiet life of the Crimson Tavern, Alistar finds himself haunted by small fragments of the past: recurring dreams, an old scar that shouldn't even exist, letters from a childhood friend he hasn't seen even in years, and a crimson moon that makes something weird within him. Meanwhile, far beyond the academy's walls, ancient forces begin to move. Secrets buried for over a decade are starting to resurface, and the truth behind Alistar's existence may be far more dangerous than anyone realizes. At Crimson Academy, where every student is expected to wield magic, one boy with none at all may become the centre of a mystery that threatens to change everything. Some mistakes are meant to be corrected. Others reshape the world.

When ten-year-old Sae and nine-year-old Rika are each saved by the mysterious dragon on opposite sides of the same river, their lives become bound by an invisible thread.

As the river's fate intertwines with their own, Sae and Rika must discover whether some promises can survive—even when every memory has been washed away. Two souls. One current. A destiny written by the river.

The Devil's Ante

What happens when the unluckiest man on Earth gets a class based purely on luck? I died in the most beautiful place a man could die - a shady gambling parlour run by a local thug.

It's quite fucking awful, actually. A four-foot-in-heels goddess of luck took one look at my soul, decided I was a problem, and awakened something in me that dragged me into a whole new world. Now this awakened System has decided my entire combat class should be Gambler. Do you want to know how it works? I throw a punch, the System flips a coin, and if it comes up wrong, it bills me. And it does that by attacking me, not the guy I was trying to hit. Everyone keeps telling me to bet small. Bet safe. Survive. Yeah. We'll see.

The House Of Salvador

On the continent of Af-Ri, nine kingdoms stand beneath one sovereign authority. Nine Salvador siblings. Nine rulers. Nine kingdoms. All bound under one man — Kaelion Salvador. They do not call him King. Because there has not been one since the age of Set. The throne sits empty by law. Only the one who awakens the Cry of the Ancestors may ascend it. Not by vote. Not by bloodline alone. By power acknowledged by the world itself. For two centuries the Cry has been silent. Until the night a child is born. His eyes bleed. The air fractures. Ancient wards tremble. And beyond Af-Ri's sacred Seal, in the dark where no living soul has stood in a hundred and fifty years, something that has been waiting finally stirs. Not in fear. In recognition. The Creeds were never extinct. They were patient. Watching. Enduring. Waiting for the return of what they were built to destroy. And one child's first breath has just told them — across every mile of stone and silence between them — that he exists. The nine rulers of Af-Ri must now stand as one. Because this is no longer a question of succession. It is survival. This is not the story of a boy growing stronger. It is the story of a continent that must hold together long enough for a king to be ready — and an enemy that has waited two centuries learning exactly how to make sure he never gets the chance. The Cry has spoken. The world has heard it. What comes next has been planned for longer than any of them have been alive
