The year is 2130, and Earth is on the brink of collapse. Ravaged by centuries of greed and neglect, humanity's survival depends on a controversial plan: sending the brightest minds to Mars under the historic Treaty of the Future. While the elite abandons their dying planet, the rest of humanity turns a blind eye, unwilling to face the cost of redemption. Mark Bethlehem, a reclusive army veteran surviving in the desolate remains of the Arctic, has made peace with solitude-until a cryptic message shatters his fragile existence. The message is from someone he thought was long dead, pulling him into a labyrinth of secrets that could hold the key to Earth's salvation-or its final destruction. As Mark searches for answers, he crosses paths with Wilhelmina Trotsky, a mysterious figure whose motives are as enigmatic as her past. Together, they unravel a web of deceit that stretches far beyond the boundaries of Earth and Mars, revealing truths that challenge everything they've known. In Beyond Limits, Mark and Wilhelmina must navigate a treacherous journey where loyalty is tested, survival comes at a cost, and the line between hero and villain blurs. Will they discover a way to save humanity, or will the echoes of greed and betrayal seal Earth's fate forever? Perfect for dystopian thrillers and thought-provoking science fiction fans, Beyond Limits is a gripping tale of resilience, redemption, and the fight for humanity's future.

Seth Veregin is Severance, and there used to be a clear line between reality and fantasy. What happens when that line starts to blur? Season 2 of Eliona's War ___ There's something wrong with Eliona, but by the time Seth Veregin realizes how serious it is, it's too late. Quitting is no longer an option. Ever since it came out on the market, Eliona's War has been shrouded in mystery. Its incredible realism has players flocking to it, but its quirks cause frustration in its player base. When NPCs have the power to freely murder players and prevent them from advancing in the main questline, it's clear that there's something far more sinister going on than a few bugs in the script. As the only healer of the Veiled clan, Severance gets a front row seat to all the mayhem. His clan starts a lot of trouble for being supposedly hidden, and Severance is the one who must face the consequences. To survive, he must get stronger, but there's a price to pay for power...

Joleen hopes to forget everything on the fringes of space. Even if she decided to turn back home, everyone who knows her back on Earth will be dead, and that's probably for the best. There are only three others on the all-but abandoned space station, but they don't ask too many questions, so Jo settles down for a long, quiet life drifting in the stars. Until an unadvised manned mission brings back an alien in the form of an obsessive, instinct-driven demon. None of them are trained for this. Note from the Author: For those who don't know, I am not a sensitive noob when it comes to criticism. How to handle criticism and, more importantly, how to use it is something they teach you in college as well as something you figure out when you're studying writing. So, if you lot have anything to point out, such as plot holes or 'this loser's character makes no sense, destroy him,' please let me know. I appreciate your feedback. For reals. Or is it fo shizzle?
