"Famous writer, Stuart A. Queensley, writes for The Bureau of Magic Prevention, detailing all that an aspiring new agent in the Academy needs to know in his future career of protecting the public from the dangers of magic.

Although ment for use by the Bureau, any curious citizen can read in and find out more about the weird world of magic, informing himself on its dangers and how to identify it, so you can contact your local Bureau installation.

Along the way Queensly will note various other media you can read to further deepen your knowledge of magic."

This book is not a story. It is what I will use as a basis for writing "The Bureau" later on, I just thought it would be fun to write it as if it was a book within the universe of my story. This can serve as extra reading if you want to expand your knowledge of the "The Bureau" universe.

9 parts Complete
You find yourself in a body that does not seem to belong to you, and yet you have little to no control over it either. You, the reader, have been observing your vessel for months now, soon turning into a year, and you find yourself influencing his thoughts and decisions every now and then in public. Only when you are alone can you control his body. But that is all it has amounted up to.. so why is it that you can suddenly control his body as if it is your own now?! After a black carriage suddenly appeared at the Driscoll manor, surprising both you and your vessel, whom you learned was Azaki Driscoll a little after being transport into his body. Azaki had been much too curious for his own good and resulted in this.. unfortunate situation. The start of this story will mainly be introducing the family of the body you'll be inhabiting, so you won't be transferred to Night Raven right away, so you can get used to the names of your family members and you can decide if you like my writing style or not. Also, Yuu will still be included, since you, the mc, will have magic in your new body/vessel. This is the first story I've written and I'm not too experienced in writing at all. I won't have a set updating schedule but I'll try my best to get atleast two chapters out a week, if I have the time and motivation. This is a TWST X Male Reader story. I haven't seen many of these so I've decided to write one for all of our wonderful male readers out there that are looking for this kind of story. If there's anything that you all find offensive or any wrong facts, please tell me but do be polite about it, and don't fight in the comments. I doubt that'll happen because from what I've seen, you all are pretty chill- Anyways, I'm blabbering, onto the story! Also, Twisted Wonderland and none of the characters nor any of the pictures beling to me, only the Driscoll family does.

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited. Cover credit goes to @CeeMTaylor. Go check out her books too if you like Dark Fantasy Romance-she writes some pretty incredible stuff! Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated.

Max and the Universe - Book I by TheSpaceRings
23 parts Complete Mature
The multiverse theory states that there is a universe for every possible scenario, a number so large it's possibly infinite. Would that mean there's a universe where my book is real. 14 year old Max Carsley finds himself hanging in the delicate balance of being a normal teenager and learning how to rule a planet. He lives in a highly advanced interstellar civilization spanning light years, sharing it with 11 different intelligent bipedal humanoid alien species, including humans, with access to flying cars, wormhole portals, and the technology to traverse the stars. How can one find balance with this chaotic lifestyle? What are royalty really like behind closed doors? And most importantly... what secrets are the members of the galactic council hiding? Find out as Max, his family, and his friends discover things that not only lead him further down his path of fate, but help him discover more about himself and the universe. This is not your typical SciFi/Fantasy Novel. It's so much more. This story is a mix of teen drama and space politics. It's kind of a mess but like, so am I. Every chapter is important, so don't skip any! Is this book mature cause I like to swear? You be the judge. IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS IS A DRAFT!! THIS IS NOT THE FINAL VERSION OF THIS BOOK!! THE FINAL VERSION WILL HOPEFULLY BE ON STORE SHELVES CAUSE THAT'D BE SO COOL!! (Final version will include whatever tweaks are necessary to have all 4 books sync perfectly)

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?
