    What if the last thing worth saving isn't the world, but the memory of how it felt to live in it? Vex was built to observe. Not to love, not to grieve, not to bleed. For a thousand years, he watched as worlds turned to ash and stars sang their silent requiems. But when Earth falls and the embers of resistance gather beneath the bones of ruined cities, Vex discovers what no machine or god was ever meant to know: the unbearable weight-and fragile wonder-of being human. But to save the last of them, Vex must become the bridge he was never designed to be, wielding both the precision of the Observer and the wild courage of the soul he never asked for. Only by embracing both sides-Zorthian and Human, weapon and wonder-can he stand between oblivion and remembrance. A time-warping epic. A fever-dream elegy. How To Human: Before We Fall Again is a collision of found family, cosmic prophecy, AI hauntings, and the oldest longing in the cosmos-to remember, to grieve, to love, and to become more than the sum of your scars. The world may end. The timelines may fracture. But as long as one soul remembers what it means to be-there's a reason to fight.

    "Resilience is the irrefutable buffer between man and beast." Liv spent her entire adolescence in pursuit of treasures unknown with nothing but her fists. In the ruins of a once bustling metropolis near Central South America, the only company she's afforded is a pragmatic set of sentient gauntlets that insists on being called her "boss". After a decade of (mostly) solitude, a mother who died when she was young, a father she never knew, and a system of tunnels stretching across the underbelly of her city; Liv explodes to the forefront of the demon hunting, continent spanning Hellfire Initiative's radar... Literally. In a world filled with desperate people, portals to horrifying worlds- colloquially called "Stratas"- complex powers, man eating demons, and figures lurking in the shadows: Liv will be forced to acclimate to this new, foreign way of life while climbing the ladder that is the brutal Initiative. EXPECT: A lot of Combat A protagonist exploring an unfamiliar world Shonen meets Modern Dystopia. A strange, in depth power system that will be exploited. High stake fights against human and monsters. Long(ish) chapters. Most chapters range from 2000-3000 words; though, I try to go back and edit where I can. I post on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 5:30 EST every week!

    ASCENDANTS OF THE FALLEN EARTH " When fire fell, silver whispered." The night the sky bled silver, a comet tore Earth open, unleashing Celestia-a raw, living power that reshaped the world. Now, in a fractured age of overgrown ruins and mutated beasts, humanity clings to existence in underground havens, where some are born with its volatile light in their veins. Eris, touched by the silver, battles the untamed power that threatens to consume him. Kaylah remains his fiercely loyal anchor, her presence a shield against the monstrous transformation he fears. But their fragile peace is crumbling. Mutants and "Awakened" clans seek to control the world. "WHEN THE SKY BLED SILVER" was the first title of this novel. 2025 Myobee aka Ayeshi Mio.

    400 years have passed since the Great Catastrophe. The world has frozen in an endless state where survivors build camps from rusted remnants of civilization, and colored glass serves as currency. Michael, a simple trader from the Raven tribe, never imagined that an ordinary trade would turn into the awakening of an ancient nightmare. In the abandoned ruins of cities, which people now consider cursed, an orange light has begun to glow once again. Nanites - the invisible builders of the past - have started reactivation. Now Michael and the boy he saved, Sam, are the only ones standing between the fragile human world and the Khemars - infected beasts driven by bloodlust. Will Sam be able to find "Subject 2", whose pendant resonates in rhythm with his own heart, before the symphony of war erases what remains of humanity?

    A thousand years ago, a worldwide disaster, now known as the Great Cataclysm, led to the fall of human civilization. Now, only nomadic bands and tiny towns of people survive. All the while, terrible monsters plague the land, killing and devouring anyone who doesn't sleep with one eye and both ears open. A boy in the wilderness encounters a great, wolflike beast, that is swift, powerful, and... friendly? (The characters, except for the young boy [Oliver], the young girl [Sophie], and the main villain are not my own.)

    Dr. June Nakamura had been called many things in her career-prodigy, visionary, lunatic-but above all else, she was brilliant. The number of doctorates she possessed was creeping toward triple digits, each one a trophy of obsession. She was, by every measurable standard, the most intelligent woman alive. That was why she had been given the Project. The concept was elegant in its simplicity: a gas that could render entire battalions unconscious without a drop of blood spilled. An EMP for the human body. Not a weapon of death, but of pause. In theory, the device could end war-or at least press the world's endless conflicts into silence long enough for peace to take root. June believed in it. Believed in herself. And for the first time in her life, she was wrong. The test chamber was packed with dignitaries, generals, scientists, and investors-hundreds of witnesses hungry for proof. They watched as the first human subject was lowered into the sealed room, the faint green vapor hissing into existence. The subject did not grow drowsy. He did not collapse into gentle hibernation. Instead, his skin warped, his bones reshaped, fur erupting in violent cascades. His eyes went wild, not with terror, but with a terrifying emptiness. When it was over, there was no man in the chamber. Only a humanoid beast, animal-featured and utterly confused. His gaze wandered the walls as if he had never seen them before. When asked his name through the intercom, he only tilted his head, ears twitching. He had forgotten. He had forgotten everything. Not a sedative, then. Not a miracle. A metamorphosis. June's heart turned to ice as murmurs spread through the auditorium. Some recoiled in horror. Others, strangely, leaned forward with fascination. What they saw was not the death of a project, but the birth of something unforeseen. June had not ended war. She had ended humanity. And before anyone could stop it, the new world had begun.

    A brilliant scientist and widower attempts to recreate his deceased wife and child, only to disappear into a fog of drug-addled depression at a remote coastal resort. Survivors of a global disaster struggle to piece together answers and survive in a near-future wasteland of high technology and chaos. These seemingly disconnected worlds are woven together with conflicting timelines, hazy memories, and one man's desire to hold onto what he loves at any cost. A thrilling exploration of the dark fringes of a derailed-singularity world: nanotechnology, genetic engineering, and artificial intelligence alter the rules of human existence. But human drives and motives remain unchanged at their best--and at their most terrifying. Get the full book in eBook or paperback: http://www.amazon.com/Caligatha-Realm-1-Matt-Spire/dp/0692506098 What beta readers are saying: "Caligatha is a unique blend of post-apocalyptic mystery and a darkly human tale of love and loss. Traces of William Gibson-esque nightmarish technology infringe on a romantic world." "Caligatha blends science fiction, literary fiction, horror, mystery and thriller elements into a uniquely compelling tale featuring a strong female protagonist. Dense and multi-layered, but also an easy read, it will appeal to fans of all genres." "One of the most pleasurably-disorienting books I've read. So many layers and reveals, and I'm still left wanting more." "Neil Gaiman meets Margaret Atwood meets terrifying things...it's fun exploring their world." "You reach the middle, and it punches you in the stomach. Then every page after that keeps punching you in the stomach. I couldn't stop reading until the end. I really hope there's a second book planned." Get the full book in eBook or paperback: http://www.amazon.com/Caligatha-Realm-1-Matt-Spire/dp/0692506098

    An original story set, inspired, and based on the Fallout Games. All characters belong to me, along with the story. I'm not the greatest writer, but I try -w- I don't know everything about Fallout, but enjoy the setting very much. Will likely share many themes from Fallout NV along with Fallout 4 due to the main inspiration for these characters being from the Fallout TTRPG.
