Humanity Endures
Desperation, ideals, greed, and hope - they all have a role to play in tearing the galaxy apart. The human race finds itself at the precipice; a mysterious, monstrous force threatens everything in the cosmos, and all the while, the unity of humanity's Empire threatens to shatter just when it is needed most. Never before has extinction been so tangible a possibility, and never before has exceptional courage, intellect, and luck been more needed. This is a story about more than just people, their ambitions, and their conflicts: it is a story about crisis, set in a universe where survival, for any side, and for anyone, may be impossible. It remains to be seen if the popular patriotic saying, "Humanity endures," will remain true - even for a week. -- If you wish you purchase a paperback version of this novel, you can do so on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Humanity-Endures-Evan-Peter-Armstrong/dp/B08P8QK86H.

Cosmic Demon Empire [Space Opera, Progressive Fantasy]
In the distant reaches of the universe, the Cosmic Demon Empire ruled with an iron fist, spreading fear and devastation across countless worlds. Its reign of terror was ended by a lone hero who challenged the dread emperor in a final, cataclysmic battle. Their fateful clash became legend. The emperor and the hero fell together in a battle that tore the heavens apart. The empire crumbled marking the beginning of a fragile peace. On a quiet, unremarkable planet called Earth, no one knew of the Cosmic Demon Empire, or the hero's legend. To its people, the heavens were silent and unchanging.

Thrust into a conflict they never knew existed, this young soul must navigate a destiny entwined with the universe's darkest shadows. As alliances form and rivalries ignite, one question remains: Can the heir to an empire of ruin become the key to its salvation-or its ultimate destruction? The galaxy waits in silence.

Mass Effect: Imperialis
(AN: I plan to conquer the Milky Way galaxy.) In the aftermath of the Great Galactic War, the Sith withdrew into the uncharted depths of the unknown regions, their empire splintered and fractured by infighting. Amidst the chaos, a force-wielding noble of House Thule, Adrian Thule, rose as an unlikely savior of order. With charisma, tactical brilliance, and a vision of unity, Adrian rallied those disillusioned by Sith tyranny. Over two decades of brutal civil war, his armies crushed the Sith remnants, forging a new empire from the ashes of discord. This new empire chose secrecy, its leaders deeming the greater galaxy unworthy of their renewed strength. They withdrew into the vast void, colonizing and conquering the unknown regions of their home galaxy. Unshackled by external interference, they built a civilization both advanced and unyielding, guided by Thule's principles of discipline, power, and order. The galaxy they left behind forgot them, but they did not forget the galaxy. Two and a half millennia have passed since Adrian Thule's ascension, and the empire, its strength unmatched within its borders, has turned its gaze outward. The unknown regions are no longer a frontier-they are the empire's dominion. Driven by curiosity, ambition, and an innate sense of destiny, their explorers have begun probing the borders of other galaxies. The Milky Way is their first discovery. A galaxy teeming with life, its fractured alliances and diverse civilizations present both opportunities and threats. The empire, watching from the shadows, prepares to make its move. Will the Milky Way prove to be a theater for conquest, an ally against the unknown, or a stage for a cataclysmic clash of civilizations? The echoes of Adrian Thule's legacy resonate through time as the empire stands at the brink of a new chapter, poised to redefine the fate of two galaxies. The question is no longer whether the galaxy is ready for the empire-it is whether the empire is ready for the galaxy.
GENESIS - THE BEGINNING. Book 1
Ragnarök The war of the gods The Valkyrie are running short of Einherjar, the souls of the valiantly slain in battle. These souls are incorporated into the god's armed forces. An armed force numbering in the countless millions that are just waiting for the call to battle, a battle of might and revenge against their opponents, the Jötnar giants and their offspring. But first the Jötnar must be brought into the fold to destroy an enemy that could vanquish them both with relative ease. The Valkyrie cannot allow any outside influence to disrupt their existence, an existence that has been teetering on the brink of war for countless years. So when Loki, a Jötnar giant adopted by the supreme god of the Valkyrie and cast aside due to his lack of respect and therefore punished, decides, on his escape, to initiate contact with Earth thereby hastening Ragnarök - the war of the gods seems eminent. Meanwhile, the Galactic Empire, having escaped Earths clutches, is suddenly embroiled in a covert attempt to bring Earth back into their stagnant existence. Katya Berotivich, a young and vengeful woman succeeds in becoming the new Emperor of the Galactic Empire. Her philosophy is a simple one; take revenge on all those that hurt her and protect the Empire by whatever means possible. Even should it call for making friends of enemies, enemies that have attacked the Empire for hundreds of years but never outright destroying it. This is Ragnarök, Where PROPHESY HAS BECOME A REALITY!Complete

When Empires Meet
The world is rapidly changing. On Earth, geopolitical tensions rise to a breaking point, with nations poised on the edge of catastrophic conflict. But far beyond the planet's atmosphere, a different war rages-one that spans the vastness of space. In the depths of the galaxy, two great powers collide in a brutal, unending war. Their fleets clash in distant systems and barren asteroid fields, fighting for dominance over resources and territory. This is a war of empires, driven by ambition and desperation, where survival comes at a cost few can bear. For now, Earth's struggles and the galactic conflict remain separate, their paths unknowingly intertwined. But the threads of fate are drawing tighter, and the actions of soldiers, leaders, and nations on both sides are on a collision course. When these two worlds meet, the consequences will reshape not just one, but the future of all. "When Empires Meet" is a sweeping tale of ambition, survival, and the interwoven destinies of two wars waged across vastly different scales. As the battles rage on, the choices made in the heat of conflict will echo far beyond the battlefield-binding two worlds together in ways no one could have imagined.

The year is 2043 and the nations of the world find themselves almost powerless against an unknown enemy known as Unknown Entities, or U.N.E.'s.

One is a young British pilot born and raised in combat who is haunted by horrible memories, while the other is an American pilot who has never seen combat but has never found anything or anyone that can best her. Can these two young officers set aside their differences and pride and do what needs to be done? Or will they falter when it matters most?Complete
