[To be edited - mistakes are very prone in this rough draft version.] Book #1 in The Shadow Realms Series In the year of 3022, Earth is left with three continents: Kalandron, Chiseor, Hylsah. There are seven members to the council who watch over the Continents and their cities. They are not people to mess with. It's been almost a century since the first of The Generals have been locked up and stripped of their powers, forcing them to act as normal human beings. But when the most important part of a person is taken away, their will to survive hangs on threads. There's one important rule; Generation Freaks are not allowed to kill anyone, no matter the circumstances. But sometimes, just sometimes, rules are meant to be broken, and fifteen-year-old Paisley Hart is soon to find out exactly what it means to be a Freak. Wonderful cover done by @AFleetingDream_91 #TheFaeFolk #TheFantasyOrder -Top 10 in Reach for the Stars Awards- [NaNoWriMo18 - 50k] (Complete - May 8, 2019)

Satchmo Turner is a failed private detective from the rusting heart of the Black Country who is reeling from the loss of his sister and fiancee. He's going nowhere at work, and treading water in life, until he picks up a simple missing person case and stumbles into something much bigger. Satchmo soon finds himself in over his head and embroiled a hunt for ancient treasure, unrequited love, violence and murder in a quiet English village stocked with a cast of characters he could never have imagined. Praise for Quid Pro Quo from Wattpadders: "Damn you for writing such a good book. I'm dead serious when I say you should look to get it published." "Overall, I think it's a great book and something I'd expect to see on a shelf in a bookstore somewhere." "I read another chapter and devoured the whole damn thing over an afternoon." "All-in-all the book was thoroughly enjoyable and very professionally written. Definitely better than almost everything else that I have encountered on Wattpad... it was a compelling read." "Your style of storytelling is lovely to read. I'm trying desperately to convince my husband to sign up to Wattpad so he can read it too."

Join the whole crew, villains and all, in a story about them if they went to high school in the modern world! Of course, the places they live will be called the same and the languages and such, but it will be in our world! (Of course with Kanej, Wesper, and Mattina). Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters save for a few. Please remember that.
