The Tower is the most popular game show of all time. It has its own dedicated channel, and its own private island on which competitors train, make their runs, and ultimately live or die. Survivors are assured fame and fortune, however, those who fail to escape before the timer counts down perish in the collapse of the building.
Sheryl Callaghan is the newest contestant, willing to risk her life after having lost everything in a tragic accident. She's trained, and she's ready to face both the physical and psychological demands of her individualized tower.
However, she soon learns that there is a shadow greater than death looming over the show. If she escapes will she be able to face the truth?

Paradox - Lost in Time
In a world on the brink of collapse, a deadly mutation of the Zika virus, labelled H1T1, begins to claim lives with a speed not seen since the Black Death swept through Europe. Desperate to stop the outbreak, a group of young scientists successfully constructs a time machine, hoping to venture into the future to retrieve a cure and bring it back to their present. Fully aware of the risks, they push the machine beyond its limits and find themselves partially stranded in a dystopian future. In this grim reality, the virus has wiped out three-quarters of the global population, dismantling society as we know it. The remnants of humanity now inhabit fractured cities, controlled by brutal armed factions and authoritarian regimes. Trapped in this hostile world, the group must navigate a landscape of violence and despair while confronting their own futures and counterparts from this timeline. The mistakes of the past resurface: rivalries, betrayals, and the devastating losses that tore them apart-murder, madness, and the inescapable brutality of a world drained of hope. In their fight to survive and find the cure, they face not only the dangers of this future but also the haunting reality of what they might become.Complete
Annoying You Is My Love Language
Lifesteal High is not your average school. Sure, there are teachers, tests, and the occasional fire drill - but also? Sword-fighting talent shows, chaotic baking disasters, sleepovers that definitely go off the rails, and way too much yelling in the hallways. At the center of the madness are Pride Duo - Planet and Spoke - who bicker like siblings but somehow always end up in the same mess (or baking team). Around them, disaster duos like Clownzy (ClownPierce & Branzy), Swagdoons (Ashswag & Reddons), and Mutiny Duo (PrinceZam & Wemmbu) argue their way through school life with questionable logic and too much energy. There's no grand plot - just friendship, chaos, field trips, flirtation, and the occasional emotional breakdown in the locker room. You know. High school things. Will they survive the school year? Probably. Will they survive each other? ...Debatable.

Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.Complete
The End Is Only The Beginning
The world is ending... but somehow, that's not the worst part. Between zombie attacks, unpredictable magic, and a group of wildly different survivors just trying their best, chaos is guaranteed. Planet, Spoke, Clown, Branzy, Ashswag, Reddoons, Mapicc, and Rekrap never planned for this- but they did choose to face it together. They're friends. They've got weapons, weird ideas, and maybe half a plan. The end of the world is here. Too bad none of them are taking it seriously.
