The stars have settled, but the winds are just picking up.

Kael Galtionie thought he had left his life as Uterca's golden prince behind, but when his mother falls ill, things swiftly take an unexpected turn. With an impending contest between Kael and Nona for the crown - a crown which Kael no longer desires - it is of little luck that another unnatural storm is brewing.

Everyone knows there's no wind in space. So when gales start causing havoc in the cities, Kael and Amara Lee need little prompting to respond. Another weapon of mass destruction has been constructed, and it is only a matter of time before Kael and the Rapid's crew find themselves tangled in a deadly game of politics and hide-and-seek.

In the second instalment of the Natural Space Trilogy, Kael must balance his mother's wishes, personal feelings, and the blaster which he desperately needs to fire to survive.

Shadows of Empire (Cadicle Vol. 1-3: An Epic Space Opera) by Amy_DuBoff

A secret war. An empire in crisis. One final hope for victory. Wil Sietinen is driven by duty. Second-in-line to a preeminent family dynasty, the young noble would rather design starships than plot political schemes or battle strategies. But when Wil is kidnapped by a mysterious alien enemy, he discovers that a brutal interstellar war has been covertly waging for centuries-and only his unique telekinetic powers can end the conflict. Learning that he's the genetic endgame of a generations-long plan to win the war, Wil grapples with his daunting responsibility to become a leader with the skills needed for a decisive military victory. But when he realizes that the enemy isn't who he's been led to believe, Wil faces an impossible moral dilemma as the fate of two civilizations hangs in the balance. Caught between ruthless adversaries and unsure who to trust, can Wil build the right alliances to secure his galactic empire's future? This timeless space opera epic with adventure, telekinetic abilities, coming-of-age, romance, and intrigue will appeal to fans of Star Wars, Anne McCaffrey, Frank Herbert's Dune, and the Lensman series by E.E. "Doc" Smith. Join three generations of the Sietinen family as they challenge destiny to win a war and lead a revolution that will change the course of an empire.

Down Under by AmyMarieZ

|WATTYS 2022 WINNER - HORROR| Shawn, a convicted criminal, never thought she'd see the sun again, let alone call another star system her home. When she's offered an out from her prison sentence, she embarks on a dangerous interstellar expedition along with 18 of Earth's most intelligent criminals. Their task is to set up a base on a supposedly habitable planet and prepare it for colonization. Although the planet has liquid water and a breathable atmosphere, it is believed to host only microbial life. However, upon arriving, Shawn and the rest of the colonists learn that assumption was grossly incorrect. In a brutal attack from rampaging wildlife, everyone but Shawn and four other colonists are killed. The five survivors retreat to the cavernous network beneath the ground seeking safety, but they soon come to a terrible discovery. These caves aren't ordinary caves, and they are no safer down under than they were on the surface. [][][] This was originally my entry for the 2021 Open Novella Contest, and it received an honorable mention! It has now been expanded into a full length novel. I used prompt number 53: "When wildlife starts rampaging, all the humans are forced underground. However, they come to a terrible discovery that being underground is no safer than being on the surface."

Crystal Guardian by aimsy42

"Run!" The last thing Aldric's father ever said to him and it seems he has never stopped. Predators from a faraway world rampage across his home planet, Atarikka.

Their aim: to get home and stop the force of Incursio, a madman who will do anything in order to survive. Aldric never thought his life could get any more crazy until he is bestowed the title, responsibilities and power of the Crystal Guardian, the one expected to lead everyone to war. Approx. 78000 words Also available for download at Smashwords (www.smashwords.com/books/view/929789 Background: When I was 12, I started reading a book that alludes me now, but I would love to remember what it was! There was a boy, in a cave...crystals were involved...it inspired me to start writing Crystal Guardian (then called Space Pirates - changed to avoid comparison to the children's show!) I'm a slow writer...I stop and start, and reedit. This novel looks nothing like the Space Pirates it came from! I didn't finish until I was 19. Before I started university to study writing...so it is flawed, but I look back on it fondly. Probably heavily inspired by Star Wars...oops.

Awkward Blue by JackieBendster

💙 Awkward Blue 💙 "He's running from legacy. She's fighting for respect. Both are hunted by shadows." Kael Lance was born into privilege, power, and pressure. His grandfather owns a tech empire, his cousins are bred like heirs in a dynasty, and every move he makes is controlled. But when Kael finally rebels, he's banished to Maynard High, a remote boarding school where survival isn't just about grades, rules, or rivalries. Paranormal activities stalk them night and day, and one wrong move could mean disappearing forever. Siobhan Wildes only wants one thing: for the girls' soccer team to finally earn the respect they deserve. But between asthma attacks, dorm drama, and a school administration that says "no" more than it says her name, she's forced to fight twice as hard for every victory. And when day breaks, she too has learned the truth about Maynard's curse. At a school where legends walk, shadows hunt, and secrets bleed into every game, Kael and Siobhan are about to learn that survival takes more than talent, it takes loyalty, courage, and the right people by your side. For fans of dark academia, boarding school drama, forbidden romance, and paranormal twists. Awkward Blue is where legacy meets danger, and every heartbeat could be the last. Updates every Tuesday 💗

Moon Bound - PART I & II - (Book 1 in the Original ROYAL HOWLERS Duology) ✔ by SAMiAMiz

*NOTE: THIS STORY HAS TWO PARTS IN ONE BOOK* In the werewolf fables told to their children, was a story--- a legend--- of a ruler--- a leader--- who would be born as the peace maker for their species. This leader would be the answer to a broken road, a 'Chosen One' who would provide a better future. Though it is a fable, just merely a story for bedtime to werewolf children, there was faith in it. There was hope such a legendary hero would be born and save them. And then the time had come, when a child---a boy---was born at Twilight--- the hour of the Moon Goddess--- and bore the marking of the Deity, sealing his fate; and everything---and everyone--- that twines with it. ***WARNING: MATURE CONTENT*** This has two parts and I decided to keep it all in one book instead of breaking it up in two. Honorable Mentions: FEB 2018: FIRST PLACE WINNER FOR @UNDISCOVEREDWOLVES BOOK OF THE YEAR (20K - 50K)

Thunderhead by vfenton11

He wasn't chosen. He was struck. When a storm brands Caleb with thunder in his veins, he's pulled into a tribe at war, with monsters in the water and a power that wants to tear him apart. Anna is the only thing keeping him grounded... but survival won't come without Koda, the ally determined to train him, and Mike, the boy who feels too much and doesn't trust him. To keep them all, and himself, Caleb has to master the thunder before it masters him. A story from the unfolding Meteo Saga. Quick note: This story is entirely fictional. The town, people, storms, all of it - made up. If it looks like something from real life, it's coincidence, not intention.
