    A hidden document of great historical value has been found bricked in a wall, offering details of the failed heretical First Revolution three hundred years ago. The document, authored by inquisitor Meghan Renar, describes the origin of the antitheist heresy, the temple's response, and the origin and eventual failure of the first rebellion. In the hopes of benefiting a second rebellion, Meghan has hidden her analyses for the benefit of later generations. Updates weekly on Fridays at noon.

    This is not a book. It's a beast. It watches you as you read. It judges you while you laugh. It makes you smile just to watch you fall harder. Inside, there is no plot. There is a family reunion of talking mushrooms, evaporated fathers, prophets in their underwear, and unforgiving hens. There is a bar that expands into a universe. A trattoria that serves as a dimensional rift. A notebook that writes itself-but only in ancient, local dialect. Alejandro Fiorenova writes as if he were cursing with love. As if Kafka had eaten too much heavy food. As if Stephen King had served in the military with an Italian rogue like Diego Abatantuono (the soul of the Oscar-winning Mediterraneo), and they had just reunited at a post-apocalyptic barbecue. It is too chaotic for those seeking logic. Too raw for those living on the run. Too human for those who believe they are eternal. But if you accept the journey-wrong shoes, right wine, open heart-the Infinity will change you. Or it will make you worse, but in an interesting way. This book is not read. It is endured. It is danced. It is digested over weeks. It is a prayer written in wine. A cosmic joke where you can't tell if you're laughing or screaming.

    To survive first contact, humanity must commit the perfect crime against reality. When the mysterious Arecibo Anomaly signals the arrival of the Auditors-ancient cosmic entities who test civilizations not for intelligence, but for their skill in deception-humanity is doomed. Its honest broadcasts into the void have made it a laughably easy target for assimilation. In a desperate gambit, disgraced physicist Dr. Aris Thorne is recruited for Project Chimera. His heretical theory of "phenomenological forgery" is their only weapon: not to fight or hide, but to lie. To build a flawless, simulated ghost of a civilization that has already destroyed itself. But the Auditors are not simple judges; they are supreme critics, demanding ever more complex and tragic narratives. As Aris splinters his own consciousness to populate his dying world, a simulated philosopher within it begins to uncover the truth of his existence. To pass the test, Aris must weave a lie within a lie-a masterpiece of art and deceit so beautiful it threatens to consume its creators and transform humanity into the very cosmic force it sought to escape. A mind-bending fusion of the Dark Forest Hypothesis, integrated information theory, and the philosophy of art, The Axiom of Deceit asks: In a universe where survival depends on the beauty of your lies, what is the ultimate price of truth?

    What if the past started talking to you? At the edge of the known universe, the crew of the Kepler-Procyon ship picks up a signal that shouldn't exist. It contains wars no one remembers, heroes erased from history, the tragedies and triumphs of entire nations. It contains vanilla and honey, beneath which lies fear. And blues sung not by a guitar, but by pain itself. "Voices of the Forgotten" is a story about who remains when everyone forgets. It's about what it means to remember-even if it kills. And about why forgetting means betrayal. If you believe that the truth never dies - it just waits to be heard - this book is for you.

    Once upon a time, in a land where human has never set foot and creatures straight from a fairytale roam free, a raging, savage war is underway. This is the land of Aaluna. It is a war between dark and light, good and evil, a seemingly constant struggle for the upper hand that can never be consistently achieved for either side, yet the tides are turning. The Exiles are the masters of war and the ignition of all nightmares themselves, with one common goal: to kill off all good and righteousness that stands against them. The Insiders are the pure flame in the surrounding darkness that must not be extinguished, as all hope rests in their hands. Yet how can a single candle stay aflame in a crowd of creatures so determined to extinguish it? • • • A young Insider named Aurora is left to wander Aaluna aimlessly ever since a fateful event in her past left her without a family, and most of all, alone. That is, until she meets the Paladins. Who are these mysterious group of Insiders, and can they help her solve her cryptic past? And furthermore, what does she mean to the Paladins? Can she help play the cards in the Insiders' favor, or will she let such a delicate spark perish altogether, engulfed in an ink blackness? _•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_• (This book is still in its very early stages, so please don't mind any errors or plot holes that may arise.

    Ranked #1 in mythopoeia - 24.09.2021 #2 in strange-combo - 03.11.2021 Just simple! Walk out through the streets until someone calls her recognizing. When there is no hint left of who she, herself is, she can do nothing other than hike on to her past to find herself. But when it all ends up in fiasco; her hope was diminishing, even when fate asked her to find herself. All she had to do was hesitate for herself until she met the legend of the wizards, a scientist, who took her life by storm. He promised her to help her find who she was but for that she would have to go through the realm of fantasy she is in, to earn him something, that's the only way she could get to know 'who she was', hence she gets ready for the adventures. Believe it or not! What happens if she falls for the legend before she gets to know him well, before she gets to know who she is... When a whole lot more questions arise in her mind, all she wants to know is who is she?; As her journey has made her get lost in her own world, finding herself.

    When Persephone, Queen of the Underworld and Life, shatters the Veil between Mount Olympus and the Underworld, realms once kept separate collide in a storm of gods, monsters, and mortal terror. As the Minotaur, a beast crafted to confound and conquer, wages war against Zeus, the King of the Gods struggles to maintain Olympus's crumbling dominion. Meanwhile, Hades, furious and grieving, turns his ire toward Persephone, blaming her for the unraveling of order and the emergence of chaos. Between their conflict lies Melinoë, their child, born amidst the turmoil of the Veil's destruction. Gifted-or cursed-with the power to contain the monsters spilling through the breach, Melinoë pays a steep price. For beyond the shattered barrier lies an ancient force that could mean salvation-or the end of everything.
