He thinks he's a deadly ninja. He's not. He's Barry Harris and he still lives with his mum.
Barry's been patient, but after twenty-seven years of trimming hedges for people he hates, he's had enough. All he wants to do is to find his missing father and to discover his inner ninja. But life's not done with throwing him curveballs.
A fatal mistake catapults Barry into the adventure of a lifetime. With talking hedges, samurai ghosts, meddling psychotherapists, and an inexplicably non-linear time pattern conspiring against him, Barry must do battle to save his hide, unleash the ninja within, and rescue his father from an ancient army, a dark sorcerer and a raging inferno.
What is the mysterious Prophecy Allocation Department?
Where is The Before and After?
Even more importantly, Will Barry's underwear hold out until he has saved the day?

Discontinued - Clockwork Shadows
This book is currently on hold and unfinished. To tell the truth, I'm probably never going to pic it up again, so I do not recommend reading it as it goes Watson once thought he was the Dark Lord of All, creator of nightmares, bringer of evil. He was wrong. Now on the run, Watson's only hope resides with a mysterious book. A book that his relentless pursuers will do anything to gain. Accompanied by a mysterious baker who uses a questionable meat in her pie and a woman who can wield a sword like no one else, Watson must navigate his ways through the treacherous city, in an attempt to survive. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Ooh I'm into this! It's enticing, it's witty, and I'm here for all of it.

Really liked the combination of humor and sheer awkward of the situation, that I found myself chuckling at Watson's attempts to scare Mylan. Poor guy.

The humor and awkwardness combined made me laugh the whole time I was reading it. I should read more. Great job on hooking me to your story." - @RelebornDavidComplete
Flames of the Past #1: The Man in the Mist (Ninjago Fanfiction)
The ninja are back for another action-packed adventure! Dive into the sequel to Darkness from Within for a world of new characters, new twists, and new trouble as the story continues in Flames of the Past. -------- Three years have passed, and the past is behind them. The ninja are a united team once again, ready to defend each other to their last breaths. But just because the past is nothing but a faded memory doesn't mean it's not there. As a new threat rises from the shadows, the ninja are thrown into action, but new environments provide new insecurities, and the twisted road of their mission is revealed to be more challenging than anticipated. Tragedy, rumors, secrets, and betrayals threaten the team from all sides, and their bond of loyalty will be tested to its limit. * * * "You really need to work on telling the truth every once and a while. Maybe then it'll be easier to trust you." Mysterious, unidentified sightings bring the ninja to the kingdom of Shillvaron, one of the four kingdoms in Ninjago. Their mission? Protect the Ruby Princess and her prized possession: the Fire Crystal. Everything is going well until Lloyd discovers a link from their new enemy to his old enemy: the Overlord. But no one seems to take his suspicions seriously. Cole couldn't care less about what his former rival has to say and Jay has his own problem to worry about. Garmadon was recently thrown back into his teenage years--and Kai has taken a liking to the princess. Lloyd's refusal to tell the whole truth only pushes them further away and he delves into the mystery alone. But the green ninja isn't as strong as he used to be--physically and mentally--so when his Baddie marking starts acting up again for an unknown reason, fear enters in and it takes everything he has not to fall apart in front of the friends he doesn't fully trust. -------- Cover by me.

Life is full of ups and downs, there's no question about it. We're tossed through the ringer daily, constantly faced with challenges and left wondering how we'll deal with them. Will we give up, or will we try? Will we cave, or will we push through until we succeed?

I choose the latter, which is why I've collected these darkly, comedic short stories into this collection for your amusement. The world's a bit tense, so unwind and relax. I'll take it from here.

Dome of Souls (Book 2 of 2, after Story Less Told)
This semi-comedic sci-fi novel functions as a bridge between book series and can be read as either a prequel to Dip$h!+s in Space season 3 (serving as additional background for the new Osirian crew) or as a sequel to the Heart of Osiris book. Adrian Michael Greggarious (AKA Greg) is exiled for war crimes and sentenced to time-pending years, under lock and key in a luxurious prison planet built for him. The Old, immortal overlord struggles with the change of pace, from galactic domination, to essentially just dicking around on an island. This old wardog doesn't retire without a fight, as he plots and plans his escape from his gilded cage of luxury to regain his empire through blood and power. The Osirian High Council, forced by his resistance and persistence must break out the ultimate weapon to pacify the beast...the woman who got away. Izleena Orrah Gravenstead Greggarious, his own daughter-in law, must break him and show the council he is no longer a galactic threat before he loses the last of his marbles and does something really stupid...again. Something sinister looms in the darkness, plotting and simmering in the shadows of his paranoia. Is he sniffing out the real threat to his empire, or just driven insane by isolation, a slave to his own delusions and drug-educed hallucinations? The family is torn to sides, trying to decide if they must release the beast, or simply add more layers of security to his prison mansion, to save him from his own conspiracies. Dive deeper into the Osirian Empire, and the warped existence of the hero that went from the chosen savior, to that one weirdo at family reunions everyone pretends they don't know. An empire on edge of war, an old man on the edge of sanity. Can Greg defeat his ultimate nemesis, his naggy B***h of a daughter-in-law, or is the real enemy watching from the darkness above?Complete

The couple were determined to avenge their fallen children and defeat the ones responsible for their deaths, or so they thought. In the present day, the ninja, Kai, Cole, Jay, Nya, and Zane, with their masters, Wu and Garmadon, discover a large organization of the same assassins that attacked Misako and Garmadon being lead by a powerful and dangerous foe on an unknown island they never knew about-the Dark Island.

Finding Family | A Naruto/LOTR Crossover
Trolling people is Kakashi's way of dealing with his new situation. Running away is Sakura's answer. Sasuke's solution involves hiding, and Naruto just wonders what his Uzumaki luck has landed him in this time around. Middle-earth is a strange new territory, with strange new threats, overprotective elves, and four little elflings who just want to find their way home... wherever that home might be, because like it or not, they're stuck there with no chance of return. Death tends to be final like that, especially when there's no one left to edo tensei oneself back to life. A second chance at life should be a blessing, but trouble somehow always finds Team Seven, whether it comes in the form of strange beasts called orcs or nosy golden-haired elves who think they've returned from the Halls of Mandos too, though perhaps this time they might get a few thousand years of peace before the action begins.
