memoir military-scifi scifi

Schoolchildren across the 10,000 Worlds have heard of Baron Sachaverell Gideon Hhavohk, OME, the Hero of Tenebris. His battle strategies are studied in military school, and dramas are told of his adventures.

But for the first time, we get the true and unvarnished story of Sir Sachaverell's childhood and rise to power, where, in his own words, "my fame is all based on fraud and sham. There have been times, more often than you might imagine, when I was sure that it couldn't last... but I'd been devilish lucky, and, truth be told, there's nothing that sticks like a good name...."

A memoir of a scoundrel, he tells how he was expelled from Human Akademie für Höheres Lernen, how he purchased his way into the 11th Hussars, his banishment to distant Wrythe and his service fighting there -- all the while, pursuing other men's wives, dodging responsibility, and trying to stay alive by avoiding the fight at all costs.

Inspired by Victorian military history, and in no small part by the Flashman book series.

Nonetheless, cheers to good reading and writing~ I'll brew this story first. I wanted some sweet and fluff in contrast to my other work. Book cover is atrocious btw, I know, lolol. I'll change that when I'm more focused on it. Just ignore like I do. Hehe~ _+_+_ Yu Yan is a curious little thing. Bridal classes? Easy. Archery? Swordsmanship? Martial arts? Horseback riding?

The Doom of the Lost Kings by stxrsallined

How far would you let your revenge lead you? Would you let it turn you clinically insane? Would you let it drag you into uncharted realms and would you let it twist you into a liar to conquer such places? Someone did. To them, it's their story. It's another journey across six countries to find themselves and to discover the truth about their misshaped world. They search dangerous terrain, they take my help and use it for their foolish desires. The main brothers of this story will share how they used to be told stories about mythical figures and power by their Mother. Where in-between the lines of them, she would warn them about turning their backs on suspicious beings though what good is it to look behind when the real danger is instead right in front of you? It was a shame she never got to teach them that. Their story began on the sunniest day of the year, where one was in the middle of the ninth sea and the others were huddled in a small Tavern. The tension was high in that family and little did they know, they were on the edge of something grand. Something grand like meeting a power that a Mother's warning couldn't stop them from entertaining. The Dark age was slowly flowing in then and a plan ticked away like it had been for years waiting for the perfect time to unravel, which ironically struck on the first eclipse of the world. Where the Moon, finally caught the Sun. Their Mother taught me a important lesson. To teach me the right ways of being alive. What is a mortal if not selfish and cruel? What is a mortal if not hated and feared? What is a mortal if not a traitor? Who was she for believing chaos could be tamed by that? They were off to retrieve a stolen crown, to reclaim their lives and pathetic world. Along the way they found love and tears, they found family and together, they found their ruin. I was among them. I watched. I waited. I learnt. I lied. I took time to catch the Sun. My glorious Sun.

IRON HAND (BOOK ONE): FOR THE GREATER GOOD by LowHale

"Iron Hand" begins in the throes of what most stories would consider the final battle. Buren, leading the "Seekers of the Artifact," utilizes the power of the Gauntlet, an ancient artifact for which he sacrificed his own arm and triumphs over the dark lord, ending the undead scourge plaguing the lands. Without a foe to unify them, the alliance of various racial, religious, and political factions begins to unravel. Reluctant negotiations result in an uneasy peace that leaves many dissatisfied, especially Buren. Now feared and distrusted for the power of the Gauntlet, Buren finds no respite. Dark visions he believes to be warnings from the Gauntlet haunt his dreams. However, his fears are dismissed as the delusions of a war-weary mind. Determined to confront this new threat, Buren follows his visions to an ancient mountain, located within the sacred grounds of the Dryads. The distrustful Dryads deny him access. Out of options, Buren infiltrates the Faith, a fanatical human supremacist religious order, becoming their enforcer, their "Iron Hand." As Buren travels, we delve into the backstories of the "Seekers of the Artifact," witnessing his navigation through a treacherous web of intrigue where trust is a luxury he cannot afford. The realm suffers under a despotic king, with whom Buren must ally on the surface, while secretly plotting his downfall. The situation is further complicated by his arranged marriage to a woman harboring her own dark secrets. Literary heroes sacrifice everything for others, but what happens when saving the world requires sacrifices from everyone? When do the ends cease to justify the means?. What if saving the world involves sacrificing innocents, betraying loved ones, and allying with despised enemies? "Iron Hand" is a story of a man who gave everything to save the world once and is now prepared to do so again, even if it means crossing lines he never thought he would. But will he still be hailed as a hero?

Who will pay the ultimate price and grant a soul for tomorrow? ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Hey all!! DISCLAIMER: This is a story I wrote in 2008 and it's the very first story that I wrote and finished when I started writing so I still have the whole story saved for the memories. But I recently discovered Wattpad thanks to a few lovelies (you all know who you are... *ahem* thanksgiving *ahem* ;) ) and I've decided to get back into writing. This story has a lot of meaning to me so I do intend to publish the whole story. I have published this story on the internet already on two different sites so if you do see it, just note that no, I didn't steal this story off someone else, I promise! :) If you are interested in seeing the unedited versions from 6 years ago, I'd be more than happy to send you the link via PM. In all honesty though, I have made a few embellishments. Nothing major, just the vocabulary really but the plot and characters are all completely the same. However, if you haven't read the unedited versions in the first place thenjust enjoy :P How often I update this story will be up to you guys and your feedback. If I get a positive response, then the next chapter will be up much sooner. All feedback is appreciate, even the baddies! :) Enjoy! Love you all E. Reignheart ~<3~

So without further ado allow me to regale you all in the spine chilling tale of romance, suspence, and mystery of the origins of how my father became the Grim Reaper and of how I ultimately became a Herald of Death.

Apostasian Revelations by ZaneWay

What would you do if you were suddenly thrown powers befitting a God more than any mortal? Would you use them to better yourself, your community and society? Or would you wreak havoc upon our world? Or would you instead look far beyond our reality and breakthrough the construction for something brand new? A new world, all to yourself that too. That's what happened, and it was in the drizzle whilst feeding the pest that had wrecked havoc upon his humble backyard shack that he found a mystery larger than anyone can comprehend, an artifact immune to the irreversible corrosion of time, quite ironic that an unbreakable artifact fell upon his hands by accident, a man two steps away from death itself. Miguel didn't know at that time about how much of an effect the scroll would have upon his life, but whatever happens; he's now sure it'll be a merry one, either in this world, or the other one. Meanwhile in the world he had created, soft, peaceful and lush forests cover most areas of the continent with a very sparse population density, however Reggasia is anything but peaceful; and sparse. Reggasia is almost like another country to the rest of the people in the old kingdom, because it is; despite being the new capital district of culture it is now bleeding like a stuck pig, it's people starving and the wars the noblesse classes are waging aren't making anything better. As such, a greed driven young rogue takes things into his own hands and goes onto a journey that will take him across the entire district when his country and people are in danger, but will he be able to stop the conspiring nobles from taking over the entire continent? Or will his heart be pierced by the very same blade he gave unto this world seventeen hundred years ago? [#7 World Building.]

Dan Barns: Problem Solver by mj_shadowrider

Book 1 of Dan Barnes Series. I am a single male with a degree in science and engineering. My name is Dan Barns, I was in the army for four years, worked in the private sector for five years with a six figure salary and was bored out of my mine. I grew a great nest egg, but I was not cut out to wear a suit and tie and then attend meetings everyday. I wanted so much more. I am six foot even, and I weigh around 186 on a bad day. My hair is brown with natural black streaks, and I have a nice tan. I love the great outdoors. I grew up as a single kid with a single parent who worked all the time. I aced science every time and fixed things for my mother and myself because of a lack of money. I never knew my dad, but once a year, my mother would get a check for my upkeep. My dad was a well traveled man and never stuck around after mom had me. Things were tough, but we made it. I got scholarships for my doctorate in both fields. I graduated as a doctor in six years. Problem that shaped me into the man I am today was, my mom died when I was 16 and I deicide to test out of school, joined the military, spent four years as special operative, and into college as an adult, I tested out of some of the easier classes. I kept the house because it was paid for and was in mine and my mother's name. I kept her truck, because it was also paid for and it helped when I need to remember her. I was twenty seven when I walked across the stage for my diploma and was sought after by some very big companies. I worked for one of these companies for five years and then I was bored. I retired at thirty one. I laid low, putting around my house, helping my neighbors, and helping out at the boys and girls club coaching basketball. For two years, I stayed in my own little piece of the gulf. I did not spend a lot of money, I fixed things, sold electric back to the electric company, and had fun with the teens. With the history now told, we can begin with some of my adventures.

The Prince's Escape by yerd213

Once we are alone, he turns to me, "We need to work on your acting skills. How can a commoner be such a bloody awful liar? Don't you learn that when you are infants?" "Oh, I'm sorry I don't lie for sport like you lot! Last I checked, it's the ones with the sticks up their arses who are so brilliant with deceit and after seeing your performance I know it to be fact! I've never heard such shit! As though I hold any regret, for telling that fancy prat anything, ha" I call back. Now that we are alone, I no longer require restraints as I let my temper run wild. He does something that takes me by utter surprise. He literally grabs my lips and pushes them together. "Don't you ever shut this mouth of yours!" I move my hands to his chest, trying to pay no mind to the heat radiating from him and give him a great push, shoving him a few steps back in surprise. "Don't touch me! Agh!" I let out before taking a breath, and with a little less force I add, "the King bought it didn't he." "Barely," he grunted. My head snapped back at him, I was fuming. How could a man make me so incredibly angry with just a few words? This must be the great charm of the Prince, I hear so much about. #310 in Historical Fiction 10/2, #347 IN HISTORICAL FICTION 1/5, #291 IN HISTORICAL FICTION 5/18, #239 IN HISTORICAL FICTION, #232 IN HISTORICAL FICTION 6/23 #160 in Historical Fiction 1/29/18 , #131 in Historical Fiction 4/3/18, #121 in Historical Fiction 4/4, #108 in Historical Fiction 4/8, #89 in Historical Fiction 4/9, #87 Historical Fiction 4/13, #66 Historical Fiction 4/22, #60 Historical Fiction 4/25, ----- Currently going through some major revisions 1/27/2018

Protector of the Crown by MandySAuthor

COMPLETED BOOK I was trained to be a weapon for the kingdom. I was forced into servitude to the King after my family was ripped from me. My new life was covered in the blood of my family...and now I had to protect the royal family who ordered my parents' death. They're all monsters, except for him...he was my charge and as much as I wanted to hate him, the prince was nothing like his vicious father. He was a warm light in my cold and dark world. I was supposed to be controlled, cold, calculating and deadly, but he made me crave freedom, warmth and all the things I thought died with my family. I no longer knew my path...but I knew it led to him. ****** Don't hesitate to let me know what you think of my book or if you see grammatical errors/plot holes! *16+ is recommended...sex is implied but not described (I came up with that little rhyme while I was brushing my teeth this morning!) and there are scenes of violence.
