Jack Hansard is the man who can sell you anything. Luck in a bottle, fame in a box, dreams on a leash, you name it: if he doesn't have it, he'll convince you he has something better. He's a trader on what's known as the Black Market - the occult Black Market, that is. If you're in need of that extra special something to curse your ex-lover or win your fortune, Hansard's the man to go to. Just make sure you check the 'best before' date on anything you buy. This is Season 1 of the Jack Hansard short story series - each Episode is a separate story, but follows an overarching plot much like a TV series. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it!

[Featured: EDITOR'S CHOICE] Káel didn't think his life could get worse after being abducted by an alien posing as a Russian exchange student. Until that 'one day' turned into three months, and he was forced to get cozy on a post-war planet fresh out of the dark ages. Forced to attend an unorthodox combat school, Káel's become a dubious spook magnet, and the trash of Lumer society for saving a dragon during physed class. To make matters worse, the only person who can help him seems to be a holographic fugitive he's harbouring in a rock. All in all, he has one goal. Home. Desperate to get back to the comfort of his Wifi before another unicorn tries to impale him, Káel will do anything short of intentional murder to pop a one way ticket to Earth, but he's already set off a Goldberg monstrosity that's turned his bland life on its head... And some of his new 'friends' have their own agendas. ---------- #1 in Fantasy (best glitch ever) #3 in Fantasy 06/15/2019 #5 in Adventure - 05/05/2019 #5 in Action - 05/05/2019 #4 in Fantasy - 05/05/2019 The Chillin Awards - 2nd place (Science Fiction) Dog Summer 2018 Awards - 3rd place (Fantasy) COGNITION Awards - Special mention (Science Fiction) Featured List - "EDITOR'S CHOICE" - 11/13/2018

Based on the title of this story, you probably assumed that this was going to be something about knights and dragons and all of that stuff. Good guess, but no. This is the story of a boy who wakes up to find himself in a prison cell, with no idea who he is, where he is, and what he even did to land up in jail or anything that happened to him beforehand. That is until a woman who works for the prison walks up to his cell, giving him two options. Stay and rot in prison. Or, help her complete these so called "trials" by unlocking them and in return her breaking him out, allowing him to regain his freedom. And so of course he chose to go with her, but to his surprise the girl who broke him out and many others have supernatural powers called Blessings that allow them to do- well, supernatural things. They then embark on their journey, with many fights and adventures ahead of them in a highly advanced territory called "Hopian".

"Hope, children, and never once let in. For it is written that a single candle can withstand the darkness, even now, in our most desperate hour." "Though the end days have come at last, and the sun falls for the last time beyond the dim horizon, we must still have hope, being that the unlikeliest of heroes and the greatest and most difficult of adventures can emerge from the darkest of days." ~*~ The gods are silent, and the people's desperate prayers of healing and aid go mysteriously unanswered. Rumors and talk of monstrous, horrific dragons killing anything in sight are whispered in taverns and pubs, with the added murmurs of draconic creatures that stand on two feet like a man followed close behind. When the elven capital of Lyrenbel is destroyed and half its population slaughtered, a chain of events suddenly brings together a disgraced knight, an old dwarf, a mage that hides his insecurities behind a mask of arrogance, a traumatized Sylvari and an orphaned Sylvanaar, and sets them forth on a path that none of them ever wanted to be on. They are expected to be saviors, heroes that come from a child's bedtime story. But they are not fighting against a normal dragon, or other mythical creature. They are fighting against an all powerful god. They carry the weight of the world on their shoulders as they begin walking down their long and winding road, yet they will fight until the very end, despite the tension that grows between them with each passing day. Their chances of success are slim, and if they do succeed, they will not return as the same person. If they return at all. ***book 1 of three*** ***this book is related to my other book, Heart of the Winter King, as it takes place in the same universe, but it can be read without it***

Survival is all about rules. It's really very simple. Follow the rules and maybe you last just a little bit longer than most other people. These rules are harsh. They are cruel and unforgiving. You might not like them. Hell, you may hate them, but the fact is you must listen to them. I don't really care if you think that's too hard. I don't care if you believe me and I don't care if you think I'm just being a hard-ass. Go right ahead, think that if you must. The rules still stand. Sit there and deny all you want. If you think you can do it better than me that's fine, just don't come looking for sympathy when things go south because you didn't follow the rules. Looking at you I already have my reservations. I just get this feeling that you aren't going to even listen to the rules. But I'm tired of watching people die of stupidity so I'm going to teach them to you anyway. Listen to my story, I'm only going to tell it once. Then, you can follow the rules if you want to. ***This story contains strong language and some sexual references but nothing explicit*** Copyright © 2017
