homer iliad magical-realism odyssey revisionist russia siberia

The setting for "Men of Winter" is deliberately vague but seems to be Russia, especially Siberia, in the earliest decades of the twentieth century. The protagonist, Hektr Pastrovich, is a journalist and poet who travels to the front of a war his beleaguered country has been fighting for nine years. He's searching for information about a mysterious vagabond who calls himself the "Prince of Ithaka" and along the way he meets a beautiful and charismatic woman. The novel is a sort of sequel to Homer's Iliad and Odyssey. Visit tedmorrissey.com.All Rights Reserved

Out of the Snow by normalstars

When a blizzard rolls into the land, (Fem!)Canada gets lost in the snowy domes of snow, soon losing consciousness. She awakens to find herself in the house of Russia, and with the snow making travel impossible, she just resigns to the fact she has to stay a while. Just a little story pairing the two, since I thought they would work well together. Fem!Can/Rus.

RusCan: Snowy Relationships by officialameliamoon

RusCan: Snowy Relationships: a similarity between Russia and Canada? Their climates? It snows? They're big nations? But nothing between to two clearly opposite nations. Canada's young, naïve. Russia is violent and strong. So, how can the two "comrades" become good friends?... Or even more? (Fanfiction based off another, and transferred from fanfiction. Net)

Overheated by FeynaValey

America has noticed that Canada has been feeling down lately. Being the heroic big brother he is, he takes the matter in his hands and drags Canada out of the house for some brotherly bonding. In Texas. In the middle of summer. Too bad Canada, a northern nation, doesn't exactly have a good heat tolerance. Needless to say, things don't go as planned.

The Chronicles of the Milky Way Galaxy : Gaia by Tcomwg

A meteorite slams into the earth causing a global catastrophe, the particles on the atmosphere block out the sun for years, slowly cooling the planet leading to a world-wide ice age. Humans find refuge in dome cities, pre-build when the meteorite was detected, which are meant to last under the snow for thousands of years. In the process, technology brings forth the age of immortality and unprecedented automation. The result is a decaying society blind to any cause and drugged to survive the endless parade of years. An idea sparks in the mind of Alex. An idea already rooted in the minds of humans since their early appearance on Earth. Migrate. Within a few years, a team had been formed and a budget had been granted for project Gaia to initiate. The spacecraft "Hera" is built in space, ready to take a few settlers to Solis. A solar system which seems to be ideal for harboring life. Many planets within the goldilocks zone and an abundance of oxygen. Is Alex the hero who will rebuild humanity in a new world or someone who abandoned Earth when it most needed its healthiest minds?

As America is being blackmailed and "taught a lesson", she finds herself, lost, and far, far away from home. Is the town she runs away to safe? Are the other countries really who they say they are? Will she be able to ever go back home?

It is simply for the story.‼️ ⚠️Also mild language warning⚠️ Also the cover is by me soooo yah.

Otkroveniye Complex // Book 1 of the Takaryev Series by KingNystrom

Ravil Galkin doesn't have much of a past, but as far as he's concerned, he's a completely normal person. Sure, he's a college drop out and basically a shut-in, but that's alright with him. But there's a whole different depth to the situation. An ocean away, shadowy figures are controlling his every move, and he doesn't even know it. As he grows closer to discovering the past he was forced to forget, he finds himself stuck in the middle of a web of deception, secrets, amnesiac walls, and masked men. But not everyone overseas is looking to control him. Turns out, there's a familiar face from Ravil's past life, belonging to a man named Artem, who wants nothing but to help Ravil escape from the spiderweb in which he's so quickly become entangled. The two of them grow closer, but make no mistake- the masterminds see this and are not too keen on Artem ruining their plans. The rules are simple: Trust no one. Question yourself. Make it out alive- and make sure no one knows you well enough to control you.

Rules are Rules-Hetalia RusAme by Pastanerd23

*some chapters are very long ;-;* Russia and America adore each other, but could never say a word. One is haunted by the thought of his people and family hating him. And the other doesn't even understand his own feelings. Although when an unfortunate event causes them to come together, how will their worlds treat them? (Warnings: Homophobia, attempted suicide, angst, swearing, sexual themes, abuse) Yeah this is one big fuked up story I can't believe I'm writing... xD Disclaimer: I don't own Hetalia, I just own the plot. Also I'm so sorry for how I portray certain countries in this lol
