UPDATE: Bane of All Things is now available on Amazon and from booksellers large and small.

THE STORY 
"When conscience clashes with loyalty, and faith with truth, even an outcast can bring the world to its knees."

In the Four Kingdoms, the Holy Clerisy preaches that the gods are dead, and prayer is the path to Hell. Anyone who defies doctrine is punished for heresy. But blind faith can damn a soul as surely as betrayal.

Ryn Ruscroft, once sworn to serve as the Clerisy's loyal soldier, finds himself torn between conscience and duty one bitter winter's night. Those slain include his best friend, felled by his own hand.

Josalind Aumbrae has been tormented all her life by the Voices and their visions-an affliction that could have her facing a witch's pyre. If only she could understand what they want.  

Banished to Dragon's Claw Abbey at the edge of the world, Ryn and Josalind discover a place built on more than penance and forgetting. What they find at the Claw will turn them into fugitives hunted by hellspawn, heretics, and Ryn's former commander.

But more sinister forces have awoken-ancient things eager to settle old scores and find pawns among the outcast. When they cry for vengeance, the Living Sword must have a hand to wield it. A mortal it can reshape into the Earth Breaker, the Soul Taker, the Bane of All Things.Todos los derechos reservados

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One de RKSHobbs

Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.

Exile: The Book of Ever de JamesCormier

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.

These Lies Of Gold. de sapphire_seas

Many years after a disastrous experiment had wiped out most of the world, a selfish King reluctantly emerged from his fort- only to find that all besides his ruthlessly guarded kingdom had perished. All, that is, besides the mounds of gold and jewels that lay in glittering heaps upon the plagued land, spewed from the earth itself. Selfish as he was, he took it all for himself, casting those who opposed him out of his kingdom, left to perish from the remnants of chaos. *~*~*~* Aurelia Vasileìa, Princess to the throne of the City of Gold, grew up in the lap of luxury. Pampered beyond limit, every want fulfilled with barley a request, she knew no difficulty- at least, that is what was assumed. Between a mother that has no love for her, and a father who hides terrible secrets, she is often torn, but hides her scars carefully. Darius, eldest son and future leader of a group of exiles called The Outlanders, despises those shielded by The Gates. Those selfish, ignorant people who only look out for themselves. The need for vengeance burns in him, and he does something he's bound to regret. He kidnaps the Princess. Follow Aurelia and Darius's twisted tale of riches and lies, golden cages, and a Princess with enough rage to burn the kingdom to ash. Ps. If you do not understand sarcasm, don't read this book. ⚠️TW: Some concepts can be sensitive to certain readers. Warnings will be given appropriately. Your mental health matters. ;)

The Wild Hunt (Part One) de Jesssayhello

Hands held me to the ground. Multiple pairs of hands. Multiple faces. A grinning wolf. A razor sharp smile. Bloody lips. I felt their hands claw over my body like they were digging into my flesh. Nails scraped at my skin, knuckles pressed into my flesh. They were tearing me apart. Their fingers gnawed at me, wanting to devour me whole. Wanting to take a piece of me as they leaned over me from above. I watched them push and shove each other, grabbing my leg, an arm, my hair. I thrashed beneath them, screaming, but like always my voice was non-existent. ............................................................................ Princess Serri Bayor, did not expect to find herself wondering through the wild forest of Miran alone at night. After escaping the confines of the palace, the last thought on her mind was death. But now as she ventured further into the unknown territory she wondered what sort of death she would face. All her life she had been warn of what laid in this lush forest. What these towering trees have seen and witnessed beneath their bowing canopies. Suddenly marrying that hairy pig of a man seemed less disgusting. She wondered if turning back would be too late. Would her father kill her upon her arrival or would something else take her life and send her head back on a spike? Follow along as Princess Serri ventures off into a teaming forest filled with hungry killers, tempting eyes and twisted fates. Be forewarned though. This is no fairytale of a story.

Taking Back Pathos de MayMLockwood

Betrayal swirls in her eyes briefly before turning back into fury. Her hands roughly fist my hair tilting my head back, allowing the blade more access to my throat. "You bastard. You hurt him, didn't you?" "I assure you I did not force him to help me." I stare up at Wrens tormented expression, almost enjoying the position she has me in. Her eyes narrow as she leans closer to me, almost inches away, "liar." My response cuts short as a she takes the dagger from my throat and drives the blunt end into the back of my head. The feeling of falling eludes me, as the darkness once circling me now invades my mind. ............................ Waiting is not an easy task, especially when you are planning on murdering the Queen. It has been 14 years since Wren lost everything to Morana's reign. Her home, her father, her hope. Until one day a cloaked man enters her favorite tavern searching for her, he brings along that missing hope she has needed all these years. But in true Wren fashion, she instead attacks him in an alley and ties him up in her room. Because lets face it, how can she trust a word out of Morana's son's mouth.

The Shackled Flame (mxm) de FenrisTheWolfie

In the ashes of a war that tore gods from their thrones, Bane, the Godslayer, emerges from a millennium of imprisonment. Once a war criminal despised by many, he was betrayed and locked away by those he once called allies.

But freedom is within reach as five ancient keys, hidden across the land, hold the power to break his bonds. To claim them, Bane must form an uneasy alliance with the last person he ever wanted to see again: his former captor, a master manipulator who wove the web of treachery that led to his downfall. As old wounds reopen and the line between passion and hatred blurs, Bane must confront the darkest parts of himself to seize his freedom. But in a world where trust is a weapon and love is a weakness, can a monster like him ever hope to redeem himself, or dare to love?

A Coil of Shadows and Sunlight de AkiNoHyo

In a world where power decides fate, those born without magic-the Snakes-are seen as cursed, descendants of the Great White Serpent that was cast into the depths long ago. They are outcasts, prey for the Sun-Blessed, who wield magic like gods and rule with an iron grip. Mila has always known what she is-a Snake, meant to bow, meant to suffer. Until the day she is thrown from the heights, left to die at the hands of the powerful. But death never comes. Her blood ignites. Her body shifts. And from the abyss, she rises-a dragon reborn. Across the golden spires, Prince Edwin is raised to believe his destiny is to command a great dragon, just as his ancestors did before him. The world is his to rule, and the Snakes are his to crush. But Edwin is soft, too kind for a world built on cruelty. He dreams of peace, of change-of a future where power isn't everything. When fate binds the prince and the dragon together, their worlds collide in a way neither could have expected. Mila is no servant, and Edwin is no tyrant-but in a world that demands they be enemies, can they rewrite the story written in their blood? A legend reborn. A kingdom on the brink. And two souls bound by fate, standing on opposite sides of a war that has raged for centuries.
