In a land where magic was once the norm, it has taken time for the people to adjust to its absence.

In the eight years since a plague took most of the land's Magi, the people of Darkspur have worked hard to put the dark days behind them. Now, after so long, they can truly say the worst is over. But, as the harvest festival draws to a close an unexpected arrival brings dire news, risking everything the population has worked so hard for. 

All of this means nothing to Sam. Tucked away in a quiet corner of the Kingdom, his only worry in life is wondering when the next Teller will arrive and bring him some new exciting tale of the world beyond. But unknown to the boy his father has a secret, one he should have shared years earlier, one that threatens to tear his whole world apart.All Rights Reserved

Abaddon's Gift by RJ_Price

Amos University is a prestigious institute with a thousand years of history. Mage families send their sons to Amos to learn their craft, make connections with other families, and prepare for their future. Mixing magic and young men promises that no one year is boring. Club rivalries, hazing, and missed assignments can become a matter of life and death. But underneath it all there are predictable variables, controls placed over the students to prevent certain apocalyptic type events from happening. There are natural laws to magic which no mage can change or cross. Such as: all mages are male. In body or soul, every mage is male. Until Naena. A bastard from the Western Cape, Naena has spent the previous three years living on the streets. She is uneducated and lacking in certain social niceties. Her mother was once a maid to a mage family, learning a coded language as a young mage in the house did, but nothing else is known about the woman except her name. The men who find Naena are determined to keep her alive long enough to find out what her appearance means. The students are both wary and intrigued. While the faculty are forced to take on the first female mage in the history of the world, nothing says they need to help her with her studies. Or to stay alive.

The Chronicles of Virdar : Genesis (Vol. 1) by cosmosdw

In the timeless realm of Virdar, a secret lies buried beneath the scars of a forgotten war. Seven ancient giants, each embodying a primal element-Water, Air, Fire, Earth, Lightning, Ice, and Nature-were created to protect this mystical land. But a curse of unknown origin turned them into enemies, igniting a devastating conflict that reshaped the world forever. From the ashes of the giants' fall emerged the Deviants-beings of pure, destructive power-and the scattered remnants of their elemental hearts gave rise to seven mysterious amulets, each brimming with untold potential. These relics, whispered to hold the key to salvation or ruin, were entrusted to the newly created humans, who now live under their shadow. As the balance of Virdar falters once more, the heirs of the Grimwore, Fairytold, and Wright families uncover a chilling prophecy: the rise of the Deviants is only the beginning. Among the amulets lies one that should never have existed-the Amulet of Nature, hidden away by Hearsay, a celestial being whose forbidden creations carry a legacy that both binds and threatens the fate of all. When six chosen heirs set out to uncover the Amulet of Nature, they awaken forces beyond their comprehension. Betrayals, ancient truths, and celestial powers converge in a battle where even victory comes at a price. A single word, Evanescet, spoken by an enigmatic figure, alters the fabric of the realm, but the scars of war remain-a haunting reminder of what was lost. What secrets lie within the amulets? Who cursed the giants, and why? And what will the heirs discover about themselves and the fragile world they are sworn to protect? Mysteries abound, alliances crumble, and destinies are rewritten in this gripping tale of elemental power, hidden legacies, and the relentless pursuit of balance.

Tattered Banners - War of the Last Day #2 [EXCERPT] by KarimSuliman

An EXCERPT of the story that is now published on Amazon. The fall of Paril paves the way for the Cursed Army to invade the rest of Gorania. Thousands of runaways from all six kingdoms flock north to the Frozen Forest, and humanity is put to the test as the Goranians are about to fight each other to the death for their place in Karun's Cave. Nardine and her mother believe they still have a slim fighting chance to end the Cursed invasion, but first they have to convince their restless vassals who are on the brink of mutiny, then deal with the obstinate Skandivians who regard the Bermanians as the threat. Halgrim seeks a friend's help to catch up with his family fleeing north, but the cost of that help might be heavier than he thinks. And Leila, dragged into a war she hasn't sought, makes an uncalculated move that will shift the odds, but not necessarily in the Goranians' favor. War of the Last Day enters a starker phase as more Goranian kingdoms fall, leaving the fate of mankind in the hands of clashing factions. Unless they realize that their broken sigils and tattered banners have become obsolete, nothing will stop the Cursed from annihilating every human being in Gorania.

Solivagant by dreams_of_silver

Magic is to be feared. It is a wild, unpredictable thing, and anywhere it goes it brings mayhem and destruction. Those that wield it are even more dangerous. At least, that's what King Soren claimed when he hunted down and killed nearly every magic-user in Eldernia. The only ones he spared were sworn into Soren's service as elite agents that have one purpose, and one purpose only--find any remaining magic-users and give them a choice. Join the Valkir . . . or die. Asher, a sixteen-year-old boy, has managed to conceal his power for years. But when his secret is revealed, there will be no more hiding. || Winner of the 2020 Sinne Awards || || Third place in the 2020 Black and Gold Flames Awards - Fantasy || The fabulous cover is from @-designdistrict !

The Dark Magic Plague by mkattron

In the small country of Crystopia, the many villages lived in peace, but then came a dark evil. Magic had always existed in the world, and dark magic was only ever found through cursed objects... until a man appeared. A man who spread darkness wherever he went, simply for his own pleasure. That's when they appeared, Magic users who became Dark Magic Slayers. Due to this evil man's deeds, magic users were hated and feared, so they must fight in the shadows to protect the innocent. For centuries good and evil battled for dominance, but to no avail. They were at a standstill and the evil man went into hiding. Only in recent years has the evil began spreading once more.

Valterra by ktflynn

**REBOOT OF VALTERRA IS NOW LIVE -- LOOK FOR "PRIMORDIALS" ON MY PROFILE ** The Shattering, a cataclysmic battle between the Light and Dark, left most of Valterra's civilization obliterated. Almost five hundred years later, the Dark disrupts the elemental balance of nature once again. Avos, a sheltered farm boy who is oblivious to any of the world's unearthly dangers, is thrown into the world unseen; witches, elves, fairies, demons, even the undead. He struggles to accept his new fate, while discovering new relationships and preparing for the precipice of the campaign against the Dark.

Eros by TimorRon

Eros, a world forsaken by its gods, left to be governed by kings and Magi, gifted with control over various elements. *** Some say the gods are dead. That Godswar left no victor standing. That perhaps they never wore flesh at all, and old tales are mere tales. Others say they have left this land to their creations, or merely left their bodies, and are now the living spirit of their own element, gifting and empowering their chosens. There's, however, a whisper of madness, or perhaps a jest, that the gods are alive, never ceasing to weave fate to their whims. That they will be seen once again, in time to finish Godswar. Whether it is the gods' will, or not, as the ambitions of kings and outlaws tangle with ploys of betrayal, personal vendettas, fury and passion, a war is sure to come.

A Song For The Damned by vantamoonbabe

The Song for the Damned In a kingdom where secrets are whispered in shadows and power is won through fear, Eris has always lived on the edge of silence. A woman with a past, a future she's yet to reveal, and a voice that can cut through the stillness like a forgotten lullaby. When she steps into Queen Liora's chambers one fateful night, the world as they know it will never be the same. The Queen-powerful, untouchable, yet haunted-has been searching for something... and she has no idea that she has already found it. A melody. A threat. And a truth buried so deep it could shatter kingdoms. Eris holds the reins, but nothing is what it seems. In a game where loyalty is currency, and betrayal is just a breath away, the line between victim and victor blurs. The damning song has already begun to play. And it's only a matter of time before everyone, including the Queen, learns the price of listening. ALL COPYRIGHTS RESERVED NO PLAIGARISM TOLERATED

Abaddon's Aim by RJ_Price

Amos is a flurry of activity as students return from winter break as it readies for the impending nuptials between Graydon Pan, heir to the Pan family, and his bastard Salord shield, Naena. Some believe the match to be a means of controlling the wild female mage before the return of war mages to the prestigious university. Despite the burgeoning Seven presence, the library is burgled. A tome as old as the Seven themselves is stolen, containing the first writings of necromancy-and Hell. Naena and Graydon take on the job as their first public service. With attention split between the wedding of the century and their job, there is plenty for Naena to sink her teeth into. All the world expects a change in Naena, that the Dragon Prince of the Seven will not suffer embarrassment by his wife or disobedience in any form. If they had bothered to ask, they might know better. For a drake only ever wants one thing. A dragoness in all her terrible might.
