Stellar Objects by thejeffnorton

When orphaned siblings Andra and Grunge are abducted from the landfill site they call home, they are pressed into service on the HMS Ghandi with three teenage aliens where they form a surrogate family in an unfair universe. PARTY OF FIVE meets GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY....a love letter to space faring #ScienceFiction. Highest Science Fiction Ranking: #1 (that was a pretty awesome day!!!) I wrote STELLAR OBJECTS to explore the nature of family, through the lens of science fiction genre. It combines everything I love about scifi, drama, coming of age, and attempts to push the boundaries of (intergalactic) diversity and the very essence of inclusivity. I'm a published author and I shared this book with a handful of publishers, one of whom called it "too diverse." Somewhat in anger, and also in protest, I decided to share it with the wattpad community and I've been thrilled that it's found a global readership here. This is an unedited book, so comments are welcome, as are constructive criticisms. I hope you love reading STELLAR OBJECTS as much as I loved writing it. Namaste, Jeff

We Are All Mistakes by David_A_Moore

[Think of it as Star Trek: First Contact meets The US Office - one chapter per day] If your parents ever said you were a mistake, well... so were they. And so were their parents. And so on - all the way back to a failed cosmic experiment that eventually kick-started a species capable of inventing nuclear weapons, influencer culture, and reality TV. Now Earth is circling the drain, and the Galactic Union has finally noticed. Their plan? Patch things up by inducting us into the wider universe - with the help of a misfiring Steering Committee and one extremely confused human abductee: Duke Kramer. Volunteering for a NASA black-ops program was meant to give Duke a purpose - offering the magic of alien contact. Instead, he's stuck in deep space learning that humanity may not be worth saving. While back here his friends are in a race to find him - dodging Elon-esque tech moguls who believe the coming salvation is their sole divine right. A darkly funny sci-fi satire about alien bureaucracy, the mess we've made of society, and whether it's ever too late to fix ourselves.

ABDUCTED: HOW THEY MET (bwwm)(completed)(EDITING) by PrEsHiShy

VICTORIA'S POV He looked at me with hatred and disgust in his eyes. It was so intense; I was forced to look away. But then I turned back to look at him as well. I was the one who was supposed to have that look. They kidnapped me! Not the other way around. I should hate them. No matter how good looking they were. They took me against my will. I will not be bullied. He didn't speak, and neither did I. XERIS' POV She gaped at me like an idiot. Her mouth hung open and her eyes were wide. She realised what she was doing and stared at me. My mask slipped a little and she noticed. I stared at her, daring her to speak, her eyes turned away. That's right. But then they turned back and held mine. She was challenging me.
