The Flatlands - a desert land where outlaws seek refuge, mages are scarce, and water is even harder to come by - have become one of the most dangerous lands to survive in. Yet that doesn't stop Laeda from trying. A closeted water mage in a land where mages are kept either as entertainers, slaves, or outright killed, Laeda has survived peaceably on her own...until now. The self-proclaimed 'Shah' of the Flatlands has caught wind of a water mage among his citizens and will stop at nothing to hold the precious power of water in his dry kingdom.All Rights Reserved

Out of Time by theeternalscribe

Danielle Carpenter has lived a life some might call boring, but she'd always loved language, and however much her parents might say specializing in Old English is a useless waste of life, it was her passion. But things are about to change. A seemingly harmless pastime leaves her life in shambles; with all she had ever held dear gone, her life is boiled down to just struggling to stay alive. When, months later, she is rescued, it isn't to return to the life she once knew, but to one she's wholly unprepared for. She scrambles for a grasp on things as legend and reality blend. Should she let the legend play out to its foregone conclusion? Or should she try for a happily ever after for all, and the consequences be damned... *This is my 2016 NaNoWriMo project, so enjoy and as always, any feedback is greatly appreciated.*

Clash of Captains by flaxen-finch

Two girls. Two dragons. One war. The two nations of Ledah and Dreg have lived in relative harmony for centuries. However, this all ended a little over five years ago with a dispute involving a slain dragon and a stolen egg. A war was sparked by the conflict, bathing the once-peaceful land in blood and tears. For many years this war has raged, and lakes of blood, both human and dragon, have been spilled. The end is obscured in the cries of the dead, and a thick mist of disharmony and mistrust blocks all resolutions. Only a true union, forged on trust and caring, could return peace to this land. Aneira, lead captain of Ledah, strives to make her nation proud. Devyn, lead captain of Dreg, strives to keep her position and life. When Aneira is captured by the Dregian captain, she finds herself forced to travel on a dangerous quest with Devyn-one that both are reluctant to depart on. Their mission: to find and retrieve the magical weapon that may just put an end to this war. That's assuming something won't come between them first. _____ If you're a fan of dragons, queer characters, sword-fighting, and enemies-to-lovers romance, this is 100% the book for you!

It granted freedom to some and the scant protection of slavery to others. Into this society a handful of children are born who will change it forever, if they can survive to adulthood. Here is the origin story of two of those children. Hathu is born to a man determined to make the universe bow to him and his species. Since he learned to talk, Hathu has been a disappointment to his father. He doesn't want to become a warrior, and he refuses to assert his dominance. When he accidentally overhears his father plotting against the Ir'Klahn empire, can Hathu stop him? Mik is born with no rights, destined to become a lifelong slave. His mother tries to protect him from this fate by running away and finding a home for them on a trading ship that travels from world to world.
