They say the gods are dead, but the truth is that some things are not so easily escaped. The greatest war of its age has burned itself out, leaving its heroes to find a life among the ashes. For some, its end means a return to an old world and old wounds. But the flames of revenge and hatred sparked more than a decade before have chilled to embers under the touch of something ancient, something evil. Beneath the sign of the white wolf, a darkness once thought buried in the hearts of men is walking the earth, and its eyes are fixed on the woman who once had a heart of fire. Fate is stirring and Death herself cannot stop it, but that is why she has a champion.

Another Stupid Spell by billricardi

Another Stupid Spell is a first person high fantasy novel, the likes of which hasn't been seen in 60 years. The tone and vocabulary of the story shifts as our narrator, Sorch the orc, finds ways to enhance his intelligence. You get to grow as Sorch grows, learn as he learns, and share his most intimate thoughts. Sorch is an orc mage in a world where orcs are cursed with stupidity every time they cast a spell. The only spell he can safely cast is Enhance Intelligence, which boosts his IQ for a fraction of a second before the curse drains it all away again. Normally casting such a spell would be pointless, but Sorch's tribe has found a way to benefit. Magic that is cast near a mysterious artefact called the 'Voodoo Engine' causes invisible hands to appear, and these hands get work done for his tribe. Sorch is a slave to the Voodoo Engine, casting a single spell over and over again to avoid being beaten by the chief's warrior caste. While foraging for food on one fateful night, our hero happens upon two human mages who are in big trouble. He saves their lives, and in return they give him an amulet that will make his life easier. Unbeknownst to the humans, their gift grants Sorch the power to break the cycle of intelligence drain and physical abuse. With the help of his friend and mentor, Shaman, Sorch becomes a real mage. Sorch leaves his swamp and embarks on a series of incredibly exciting and dangerous adventures. During his travels he encounters horrible injury, magical treasures, love, snow, university admissions tests, a plot against the Kingdom, and then of course he saves the world. Or does he? Be prepared to rethink everything you know about thinking. If your own intelligence was the fuel that your magic ran on, how brightly would you dare to burn?

Of Flame and Void by PARISOWUSU123

Omnissa's power is unimaginable. But so is the darkness that comes with it. Raised by a cruel stepfamily, Omnissa's true ancestry has been buried for generations. But everything changes when she bonds with the last descendant of the first dragon-an ancient, forgotten beast. A power stirs within her, one that could shatter the world. Chosen to attend the prestigious Eryndral Academy, Omnissa is thrust into a cutthroat world where dragons are weapons and alliances are forged in blood. Here, the Flame Regent's daughter plays dangerous political games, and every move is laced with betrayal. In the shadows, secrets fester, and the line between friend and enemy becomes impossible to see. As the war between the Draconic Sovereignty and the Eldritch Dominion escalates, Omnissa must navigate a deadly game of magic and politics. Connected to every dragon, every living creature, and even the gods themselves, her power is both a gift and a curse. Enemies close in, and the stakes grow higher. Omnissa must decide: will she embrace the fate that's been forced upon her, uncover the truth of her magical lineage, or carve a path of her own? The flame of destiny burns bright-but the void of her power threatens to consume everything.

Deathsworn Vol. II by MichaelPanter5

*** Sequel to Watty's winner 2018 *** Best read after Vol. I "Killing is the draught that must needs be drunk. Guilt is but the coin we use to pay for it." Moons have passed and wounds have healed, but the memories of Hammar are as lucid for Bard as the future is bleak. Once more the Gallowmen must venture forth armed with their wits, their weapons and their will, united in the knowledge that only through death can they purchase life. Their relationship with the Burned Priests straddles the edge of a wicked knife, and though their list may grow shorter, patience is a commodity that has run its course. Now the Gallowmen must travel as far east as one can go, to a corner of the map thats notoriety lies in it being perilously unforgiving to those who know it not. Here, death stalks the jungles, creatures of the dark hold dominion, and life is a luxury pledged only to the strong. At the edge of the world, Bard and his rogues must navigate more than mere men to get what they need. Their life is their list ... if they can survive long enough to see it through. *Deathsworn Vol II is a spin-off story from a much larger trilogy I'm currently writing for publication. Comments/reviews/feedback would be greatly appreciated wherever possible. Volume I of IV is COMPLETE ... Enjoy.

The Rogue King {18+} (Book 2) by chelseaxxm123

[COMPLETED] I was cursed at such a young age, abandoned by my own wolf and the Moon Goddess for something that wasn't in my control. I don't even think having a mate is in the cards for me... ✨🌘✨ I jumped when the final horn sounded, circling the garden before everyone became silent. They all returned to their seats, my father rising from his chair as I stood from my seat along with the other pups. I struggled to breath as we took our position, standing in the centre away from everyone else. My father offered me a reassuring glance though it did nothing to ease my anxiety, all I had to do now was wait. My eyes widened when the moons blue light shined down on me, illuminating my skin as I stared up at the sky in awe. "We thank the moon goddess for the power of her light..." I dropped my gaze back down, my fathers words surrounding us, "...Shall it bathe you and grant you strength, agility, speed like the wolf..." The pups around me began to moan in pain, capturing my attention as I furrowed my brows. Their features were all contorted by an invisible pain that inflicted them but I felt absolutely nothing. My heart raced when their groans of pain became screams but I- I suddenly drop to the ground, a painful throbbing in my head forcing me to the ground. I grip the sides of my head, screaming. I don't know how to explain it but it felt as though my brain was tearing in two, like my head was cracking open. When the pain stopped, I found myself surrounded by wolves, the shifted pups. Looking down at myself, I only see my body, no paws and no fur. I hadn't shifted... ✨🌕✨ Book 2* 'The Wolven King' is the first book and must be read in order to understand this one. ⚠️ WARNING!! This book is mature and should only be read if you are 18+. There are depictions of violence, mature language, sexual behaviour and sexual abuse.

Damsel in Control by Random_roze

Warning! This is an adult novel and contains sexual material (like a lot hehe XD). Read at your own risk. I will put trigger warnings at the top of the chapters. Meeting your soulmate has seemed easy enough for most of the wolves that Reyna knows. But what happens if she's not searching for love and just wants to have a little bit of fun? Why should anyone get a say in how she gets to live her life? And what happens when she discovers a truth that has been hidden for centuries... *** Reyna has been shunned, mistreated, and called a liar by all the people in her life who were meant to love her. But what happens when she chooses to take matters into her own hands? I can guarantee it'll be steamy...
