The Queen Of Arrows
** Marian, a thieving nobleman's daughter with too big a heart, meets Robin Hood, a daring thief with a huge ego. Will they be able to overcome pain, longing, and, finally the cruel Sheriff of Nottingham? Or will the legend end before it begins? ** "Hope, be it never so faint, bringeth a gleam into darkness, like a little rushlight that costeth but a groat." ― Howard Pyle, The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood - In the heart of Nottinghamshire, the noblewoman Maid Marian has a secret double life as a thief by night. She steals from the chests of embezzlers and distributes her loot to the poor. When she crosses paths with the self-proclaimed King of Thieves, past and present collide, soon forcing her to choose between loyalty to the crown and the law - or rebellion. But it's not only the dangerous raids that swirl her life: soon she is torn between her feelings for the charming Robin Hood and the honourable Guy of Gisborne. Will Marian be able to bring justice to the kingdom? Will she lose her heart to the King of Thieves or will the righteous Guy of Gisborne be able to preserve her honour? In a story of love, courage and resistance, Marian's fate interweaves with the legends of Sherwood Forest. **** Wattys2023 GERMAN WINNER + Special Price for Most Engaging World Cover/Banner by Thinkerling *** 🥇1st Place Literary Book Award - Adventure 🥇1st Place Lavender Awards - Historical Fiction 🥇 1st Place Ambrosia Awards - Best Cover 🥇 1st Place Ambrosia Awards - Historical Fiction 🥇 1st Place Phoenix Award - Best Cover 🥈 2nd Place - Tricolour Triennial Awards - Historical Fiction 🥈 2nd Place - The Wonder Awards - Fanfiction 🥈 2nd Place - The Nebula Awards - Historical Fiction 🥈 2nd Place - The Aster Awards - General Fiction ****Kumpleto

Rising Beast | Garou Reader//Invincible
Y/N was once just a regular boy growing up on Earth - a planet constantly torn apart by superheroes, aliens, and villains. But unlike most kids, Y/N didn't look up to heroes. He feared them. As a child, he watched helplessly as "heroes" leveled half his neighborhood battling a villain. His parents were among the many who died that day - innocent lives reduced to collateral damage. The heroes got applause. The villain got blamed. No justice. No accountability. Just a scared, grieving boy left to make sense of a broken world. But fate wasn't done with him yet. Not long after, he was adopted by a kind-hearted woman - someone who didn't have powers, but who showed him more strength and compassion than any cape ever had. She raised him with love, patience, and empathy. She helped keep the rage from consuming him completely. Still, Y/N couldn't forget what happened. That fear. That helplessness. It never left him. At 13, he began to train - quietly and obsessively. Martial arts, self-defense, and street fighting became his escape, his coping mechanism. He trained not to become a monster, but so he'd never feel powerless again. Under the guidance of Bang, a legendary martial artist, Y/N honed his skills to deadly perfection. Bang tried to steer him toward becoming a true hero, but something inside Y/N stayed fractured. Now older, stronger, and sharper than most who wear the title "hero," Y/N walks a dangerous path - not out of hatred, but because he believes someone has to hold the powerful accountable. He hunts corrupt heroes, dismantles villain syndicates, and brings fear to those who misuse their gifts. Some see him as a monster. Others as a savior. But Y/N? He doesn't care what they call him. He doesn't want to destroy the idea of heroes. He just wants to fix it - even if that means becoming the villain in someone else's story.
