Heraclitus' fragments come together, to life, and towards its antitheses, in this fantastic metaphysical journey. 

Forty years after Orion's Cartwheels hitchhiking circumnavigation of the planet, Steve of the Jacuzzi returns to accompany the good doctor, on another series of road trips, to Alsace and Central Africa and Tennessee, in a penultimate bucket list Grand Tour.

Together, they experience issues of survival on an interstellar Worldship, the epiphanies of perfect late harvest wine, tracking of gorillas in the Impenetrable Forest, a general who fought too much (while another fought not at all), and the thrill of the world's most famous barbecue competition.

I S T H M U S by extraisthmus

Isthmus is now published! This draft of the story is no longer canon, nor is it of market quality. If you'd like to experience Isthmus in its finished form, we hope you'll consider buying the published novel. You can find more information at https://isthmus.world/. Expedition Remus is sent to assess Planet 7355264Z for human colonization only to discover more than they bargained for. Previously thought desolate, their destination reveals a harrowing secret. The unprepared crew finds themselves stranded not only with each other but with the bloodthirsty creatures that rule the land they seek to claim. The ghaengste are the primitive and cannibalistic but intelligent natives of Matka. Their hostile world has been ravaged by lifetimes of violence and divided into four warring nations. A ragtag group of renegades seeks solace from the slaughter in one another, and then in the growing rebellion that forms from their bond. Isthmus follows two stories: the journey of four ghaengste destined to reunite their broken people and the trial of twenty-six settlers first to survive, then to discover what truly makes them human. The fate of both species is contingent only upon their will to seek redemption for the sins of the past, present, and future. Matka have mercy on them all.

Star Rider by seagle3137

Ami: "We may be in different worlds, but we share the same moon and stars." This is a sci-fi love story, dedicated to those people who had to depart... Can you still see the stars in the city's sky? Have you ever imagined that your imagination could transcend what meets the eye? Slowly soaring towards the outer reaches of the solar system, you will encounter Mars first, followed by the asteroid belt teeming with activity, and then the radiant Jupiter and the ringed Saturn. Continuing further, there's Uranus, and beyond Uranus lies the deep blue Neptune, followed by the Kuiper Belt. Farther still is the Oort Cloud, a journey that takes at least 20,000 years... This is a pilot's logbook from the era of interstellar exploration. During that time, fusion technology has become practical, and humanity has embarked on voyages into the frigid expanses of the outer solar system, exploring the Kuiper Belt. Earth remains a stage for political and economic struggles, while the explorers are busy bees of that era, pioneers venturing into various planetary belts, far removed from human civilization. This story encompasses love, longing, psychological descriptions, speculation, as well as themes of loneliness, social anxiety, and PTSD. If you're a tech enthusiast, you'll find foundational elements of interstellar travel here: astronomical units, speed and time, the asteroid belt, Kirkwood gaps, Trojan groups, the Kuiper Belt, Lagrange points, orbital resonance, gravity assist, centrifugal force, the structure and construction materials of interstellar space stations, fusion engines, magnetic confinement, propellant propulsion, and other technological concepts.

Release Me by anna_rose01

Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.

Sea Vs Alien by DanyJ10

*Discontinued* Being completely annoyed and tired of his life with the gods and being betrayed without a second thought, Percy decides to take a little trip to Alaska to get away from everyone.

This adventure will take him across the world and have an unwilling companion: a man-hatter. But also two friends who regret their actions and are trying to fix things with him... not that he mind the last those two...

Once upon a December - The invitation- Walter Deville x reader by rose_sparrow17

ManBeast - Book 1: A Kingdom of Predators by thebelgraveyard

In the past, the world was filled with sentient creatures known as "Beast-Men" which lived on the fringes of society. Shunned for their outward appearances and lifestyles, these sentient creatures were largely discriminated against and treated as lesser beings, leading to many dangerous skirmishes between species. Thirty years ago, the scientific world discovered that there existed a "mutative variant" present in the human genome which has historically led to the natural conception of Beast-Men within the international populace. This meant that being a Beast-Man was an "act of God" and thus, gave way to the social birth of "homo portentum". After the passing of a landmark legislation a few years after the discovery, Beast-Men have integrated into society, doing their best to balance the social norms set upon them, and the instincts from their past heritage. Enter Julius P. Jones, aka Jules; an artistic subcontractor hired for work within a limited liability partnership, who becomes entangled with an underground society of Beast-Men, known as the Brotherhood of Beasts. His new assignment within the firm would place him under the direct supervision and advisement of an esoteric but brilliant member of the society, who is not only a senior Brother of the fraternity, but is also a senior partner of the partnership. Through his adventures and pursuit of solving the mysteries of his past, Jules comes to learn about his obscure beginnings, the differences and similarities between the "typical and the atypical", the idiosyncrasies of keeping relationships and what it is like to walk in the shoes of another.
