Two millennia have passed after a catastrophic event that killed most of the population on earth. The survivors are rebuilding a society where, perhaps unsurprisingly, human relations feature the same prejudices and conflicts that are familiar to us. Fortunately, not everyone is of the same old mold. Betula and Liriodendron are nonconformists of the best kind, just like the many we are familiar with today. Let's hope their adventures will be entertaining enough for readers to suffer Contrails' dark episodes. Hey! Dystopia is seldom entertaining.

Growing up on the streets of Zianna made Finn very good at a lot of things - pick pocketing, gambling, and generally sneaking around. He didn't mean to befriend Tannix, one of the richest young lords in the Kingdom. He certainly didn't mean to discover a plot to kill the King. Luckily his unique skill set, if not very law-abiding, might be exactly what is needed. Unfortunately, Tannix isn't entirely thrilled with his methods, and for some reason Finn actually cares about his opinion. Is there more to their friendship than he realizes?

[Teen and New Adult Zombie Apocalypse Romance] "If you would've told me the last day of our peaceful existence would be a boring Tuesday in November, I would've called you an idiot." High school senior, Casey Whitmore, is about to discover her life isn't all about graduating with honors, taking her team to the championship, or being the perfect daughter. When Casey's mother comes down with the scariest illness imaginable, she is forced to take action, but no matter which way she turns the normal solutions are unavailable. As she searches for medical treatment, Casey crosses paths with two friends who agree to help. Derek is the broody, mysterious type while Thomas is the smooth wild card. The guys couldn't be more different, but are attractive and seductive in their own way. It's not until all communication is cut off that they realize the spreading illness is no accident, and the world becomes lost in a horrific whirlwind when the dead start attacking the living. Life must go on, but with no survival skills, Casey has a lot to learn. Even though Thomas and Derek prove to be invaluable during the fallout, love is still very much alive, and emotions run wild even during the zombie apocalypse.

Thirteen-year-old David Rhenford is used to winning. He has a great family, great friends, and a closet filled with trophies, but his never-ending winning streak is pitted against the ultimate test--magic. When one desperate prophet's spell goes wrong--or perhaps too right--David is stolen away to a world under the rule of the last wizard of Atlantia. Mages make up the resistance fighting for the freedom of the people. A wizard's magic is unparalled, however, and nothing of Atlantia has been able to defeat him for centuries. Cue David's mysterious and unexpected arrival. David's lost, afraid, and fed up with a life without wi-fi. People are looking to him for rescue, but who the heck would put a middle-schooler in charge of saving an entire world?

[Soon by WATTPAD BOOKS] In the prestigious race of stars, Sozo must hide the truth of who she is or pay with her life, but her blossoming relationship with the most talented competitor threatens everything she's worked for. ***** Every ten years, the lucky chosen bond with stars and race to win a wish. Any wish. Sozo is one of the lucky chosen, but she has a secret: as an Omen -- cursed beings that can transform into monsters -- she's forbidden from competing. Discovery would mean her death. Can she hope to keep her identity a secret, let alone win the race, especially as the talented and sunny Naqi enters the picture? When Sozo is given an ultimatum, she has to choose: betray her Omen people, or betray the people who are slowly, surely, becoming like a family to her. --- WATTYS AWARD 2020 "Bar none, this was [Senior Editorial Specialist] Amanda's absolute favourite read from the Wattys this year. It makes you cry, just from pure, uncontainable joy, and the ending kept us reading until nearly 6am. Everything about this story is beautiful. We were astounded that anyone could create something so magnificent and moving and magical. This level of storytelling mastery will never not blow us away." [Word Count: 70,500]
