Helpful reminders as you read: (subject to change & be updated w/the release of chapters) Main characters: 1. Charlie (woman) - She has light features, recessive genes. She is a mistake in the genetic pool, yet b/c of her lineage she has all of the rulings of an aristocrat. 2. Aero (man) - Dark features, thick eyebrows. Colonel and Charlie's fiance. 3. Rhys (man) - Charlie's best friend. 4. Senator Holm (man) - One of many senators that work directly with President Malcolm Bouchard. 5. 273 (man) - Peat. Dark features. Chocolate brown curls. Tattoos whipped out of place. Emerald green eyes. Vocabulary: * Plebeian - a lower class individual, the lowest class. Marked by light physical features and high spirits! * Aristocrat - an upper class individual. Marked by dark physical features and perfect skin. *Peat - an individual that has both plebeian and aristocratic blood, usually from rape. Marked by a number on the side of his/her neck. * Defect - a derogatory name given to nobles when they appear less than average. * D.O.C. - the day of correction set to kill off those that don't look perfect * Corpse flower - a flower that has been rumored to possess the components to correct the genetic error found in Sybaran. * Silver knickle - currency in Nephraim * G-shot- the shot that corrects defects. * The Oval - is the center of the world, the government. President Malcolm Bouchard works here. Basis and facts throughout the story: Pieces from the Old World are forbidden. Those with lighter hair follicles and iris colors are considered problematic; skin tone is no longer the issue. Every race has the ability to be born with lighter features, so there's no prejudice against race. Just physical features. Sybaran is the continent; Nephraim (home village) , Salem (stricter division, where Aero was born), Mieich, and Shankrai, are the 4 subdivisions (countries) of Sybaran that we have so far.

Bumping Uglies by SouthPawStance

Satchmo Turner, erstwhile Private Detective, is looking for love. He's also looking for a missing photographer and some direction for his drifting life. Unfortunately, what he excels at finding is trouble, and when a canal boat-load of it hoves into view, Satchmo is going to need all of his wit and tenacity to emerge intact.

Corrupt by HugACat

Savannah Stone gets more than she bargains for when she literally falls onto an attractive cop. Jace Carter Kingston - attractive, wealthy, and overconfident - wasn't expecting a loud, defiant girl to land clumsily on his foot, yet when she does he can't seem to get away from her. Suddenly, she's enveloped into his secrets, most of which aren't exactly legal. As Savannah struggles to survive in a world which wants nothing more than to see her demise, she's at a loss at what to fight for. With her chance of survival diminishing and her trust for those slowly failing around her, the one person she thought she could turn to seems to be fading away from her too. Savannah has only two options left - save herself or die trying.

Devil Take The Hindmost by SouthPawStance

Satchmo Turner, proprietor of the Waifs and Strays private detection agency, can feel all of his meagre past success slipping away. His relationship is on the skids, he's flat broke and his business partner is hell-bent on taking a murder case that isn't paying. When a dynamite client proposes a doddle of a job for a bucket-full of cash, it seems like a no-brainer. But with the bodies piling up on the streets of Wolverhampton, and the ghostly hand of the city's founder on his shoulder, Satchmo and his motley group of pseudo-sleuths soon hope it won't be them that end up brain-dead.
