Nirrin (Forestfolk, Book 3) by Zoe_Blessing

Nirrin spends her days in Foresthome caring for orphans, getting into trouble, and listening to other people's adventures with secret envy. Which is why following an intriguing stranger into an unknown part of the forest seemed like a good idea at the time. Nirrin doesn't expect to find her missing parents among a band of odd-looking misfits, but family is family, right? Her hopes to reclaim the kin she'd lost are challenged, however, when she uncovers their violent plot against "Normals" like her. They'll make an exception for her (Nirrin has always been great at exempting herself from rules), but doing nothing would mean endangering her friends in Foresthome. She must stop these outcasts from--who is she kidding? She's a smart-mouthed girl with no special talents. What is she going to do, talk them to death? Maybe babysitting a bunch of other orphans in Foresthome wasn't such a bad deal after all.

Supernova by infamous0110

Zora always knew she didn't belong to this world. She didn't even know her real name. She never met her birth parents, having been left in a firehouse as a 6-month-old baby. Zora has bounced from one foster home to the next since she was a troubled child. Bad things, or "accidents" always followed Zora. She always felt like she was one step behind everyone else trying to catch up. Trying to be normal, but Zora is not normal. And never will be. Bryce Cullen is another lost soul in the world. He is also one of a kind. When they first met it was a supernova, two stars coming together in a stellar collision with stellar dynamics. As an evil is looming, threatening to destroy the Earth, can these two outliers save the world with powers neither utterly understand? ~~~~~~~~~~~ Zora could only shiver as: his eyes darken looking at her, becoming more onyx black, and purple bruise-like shadows appear beneath his eyes. Bryce stands at 6'2" and has a thin and lanky but muscular body. Zora felt a tiny piercing pain trying to hit her over and over, but somehow it was blocked. "Where am I?" "Who are you?" Bryce asked sternly, glaring down at Zora. "It's her!" Piper said running onto the field. "That's the girl! She is the girl from my dreams! She is the one to bring Hell Fire!" ~~~~~~~~~~~ Updates every Wednesdays! Participating in: #theseasonalcontest

Full Dark by CarmenDreamsGhosts

A world teetering on the edge of an otherworldly eco-disaster. A teenager torn from his home and forced to reckon with powers not of his choosing. Polluted magic, killer scarecrows, and creatures rising from the grave. Welcome to FULL DARK. 🌕 Tobias Burnbright is a young man living in the northern whaling town of Palewind, his life a dreary monotony of factory work and grey skies until a new religion called the Vigil hooks its talons into the populace. They believe Tobias' queerness marks him as Twisted: a label that threatens to make him an outcast, or worse. Enter Columbus, a man who keeps his secrets close, the only hint of his past coming from the fire he wields like a weapon. 🌓 Soon Tobias and his sister Amalia are spirited away by this mysterious man in a journey spanning a continent, a journey that will cause Tobias to confront himself and the dangerous magic that dwells within him. But little does he know that his path takes him ever closer to the enigmatic Calico: an undead magus connected to Tobias by a past life, and whose schemes threaten to tear apart the very fabric of the world. 🌒 Hello lovelies🖤 I will be posting one chapter of this story every week until it is complete.

Remi's Great Escape (Forestfolk Prequel) by Zoe_Blessing

Before he ever met Siena, before he knew Foresthome even existed, Remi was an Aberration living under the iron-fisted rules of his tribe. Learn how a spirited and resourceful 12-year-old boy ousted his Plainsman oppressors in this prequel to the Forestfolk series. A little shoutout to maniacgirl for inspiring the title of this story. Though the events in this short story take place before Book 1 in the series, I recommend reading it AFTER you finish "Siena." I think it will be more satisfying that way, because then you'll understand the little Book 1 references I've planted here and there. Finally, the format of the title and cover for this story is different from the rest of the series. That's because I consider this to be bonus material rather than a continuation of the series. It's only 12 chapters long. I may change the cover at some point, but in the meantime, this is what I have. :)

Legacy of the Remembered by Arynneva

Prince Eske wanted to turn his back on a world he could not trust, but it is out of his hands when he becomes acquainted with the optimistic Fumarian, Lord Yras. Princess Ollyah always feared she would one day be betrayed, but this was not how she expected it to happen. King Bohjin and Queen Rime just wanted to protect their family and kingdom from inevitable doom, but such a task is harder than anticipated when unknown forces take the stage. The Kingdom of Ehvera spent decades in self-isolation. However, when King Bohjin extends an invitation to the Kingdom of Fumari, boundaries break. Tensions rise among the royal family, secrets come to light, but they do not have long to quarrel. Seeds sown long ago are beginning to bear fruit. Foreign adversaries and allies alike are planning, and the lonely Kingdom of Ehvera cannot afford to remain in ignorance. -- Cover made by me. Previous version just named "Legacy".

Aura's Undoing (After Death Chronicles) by AWFrasier

Dark Urban Fantasy | Vampire | Romance | LGBTQ+ Aura hated her work. Hated her life and hated her entire existence. She thought she ended it all but then she wakes up to the Aztec Deity of Death sitting on her toilet, telling her she has been given a second chance. Aura is thrust into a new life where deities are real, those who used to be mortals have died and risen from the grave and she has apparently enemies dead set on taking her down. When she is drugged at a gathering, her deity Xipe Totec gets more and more secretive. There's something he isn't telling her and the other previously mortal people in their brood. And Aura is definitely not content with being kept in the dark. There's a path to enlightenment, but maybe it's not paved with morale.

The After Effects by NotTheMainCharacter

After it all happened, the Plague created what feels like a whole new world. Survivors created new lives for themselves and carried on with their lives. Me? I didn't get the chance to create a new life. Thanks to my absolutely wonderful father figure, I was forced to become an entirely different person. Thankfully I was able to escape his peachy influence and take some control of my new life. What I don't know is the Plague brought on after effects. Everything changed eleven years ago and only a few knew what actually happened after billions of people died. That all changes one-day though and I found my life completely flipped upside down. Cheers to The After Effects.

Sember (Forestfolk, Book 2) by Zoe_Blessing

Little Sember stole readers' hearts in "Siena." Join her now, ten years later, as she embarks on a quest of her own to save her people, and to finally accept her true self along the way. - - - Sixteen and struggling is not how Sember wants to describe herself. Born with the ability to conjure fire, every day is a challenge to keep the churning blaze within her under control. After nearly incinerating her parents at the age of six, guilt and doubt plague her at every turn. While the village's gifted healer is away, a mysterious disease sweeps through Foresthome, and people start dying. When her parents get infected and the resident herbalist has no solutions, she takes it upon herself to track the clues and locate the source of this unnatural plague. Joined by her brother and a handsome Iceling, they must unravel the mystery and face an unexpected enemy in the shadows. If they fail, the plague will engulf the world she knows, plunging it into dark times. Maybe a little fire is exactly what they need. --- Big thanks to @vexnir for illustrating this awesome cover.

Empress of Fire by KatrinHollister

Lian snuck out of the imperial palace and exposed the village healer to be a fraud and a devil-worshipper. Cursed by the spurned fire god, Huogwai, and disgraced and cast out by the royal family, Lian set out with her manservant Emiru to the kingdom of fire to rid her of the curse of uncontrollable flames for a chance to regain her claim to the throne. But being a fire disciple meant she was a practitioner of the forbidden arts. For those that hunt her kind, the game had just started.
