Break the treaty, be destroyed.
We forgot.
Now we pay the price.

Jason Sietinen lives in the shadow of greatness. He's worked hard to become a TSS officer in his own right, but having war heroes for parents is hard to top.

When Jason is assigned to investigate a mysterious attack, he finds evidence of powerful transdimensional beings never before seen. Or so he thought.

Jason soon learns that critical information was lost through the millennia: Tarans had an ancient treaty with the aliens. Unfortunately, rogue actions by a shadow faction within the Empire just broke the peace.

With the future of the Empire hanging in the balance, Jason must find a way to unite the Taran worlds, including the lost colony of Earth, against the mounting threat. There's just one problem: how do you fight an enemy you can't see or touch?

Perfect for fans of epic sci-fi featuring sprawling galactic empires, drama, intrigue, and psionic abilities, Empire Reborn is the first book in the Taran Empire Saga, a new entry point to the bestselling Cadicle Universe. Grab your copy today!

Titania by EriAeternum

Stars, they are light, they are warmth, they are unlimited. . . All her life, young Titania has wanted nothing more than to be something other than her planet's Keeper of Stars. She is able to see into a star and reveal what is inside; wishes, secrets, memories and so much more. She wants to use her gift for something more than tending to the needs of her people. She wants to share what she can do and all she is. When she accidentally uses her ability on herself she is transported off of her planet, Venstri, and ends up crash landing on earth but she wasn't expecting to land right into the territory of her mate, the alpha of a werewolf pack. She learns that everything she has ever longed for has been on this new world all this time, but something she never saw coming was being mistaken for a supernatural being known as an aeteri, and Titania plays along in fear that if anyone knew the truth of what she truly is, they would make her leave the home she grows to love to protect their future. With her growing paranoia of being caught impersonating the aeteri, the possibility of her people coming to earth to take her back, and a mate she lies to every day about who she is, Titania tries her hardest to keep her secret safe. Titania knows her people are looking for her, she knows she needs to come clean about who she is but the further she digs in her hole of lies, the harder it becomes to get herself out and the more problematic her situation becomes. She only ever wanted to share her gift with the world, but once she learns the truth about who she is meant to be, she realizes the world isn't quite ready for what she has to offer, or the universe for that matter. ********** An Aeterian Story- Third Book Book Order: The Alpha's Eversor Athena Titania

ONE: Epilogue of Hermesh by IndianYorker

How do you defeat an enemy you cannot reason with, you cannot hide from, you cannot escape, you cannot kill? For they are not truly alive. *They are coming. They keep coming.

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One by RKSHobbs

Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.

Who is the Alien now? by Siripoppo

Aliens are real. They infested Earth in hope to find their "mate". They call themself the Matters. ************************************************************************************************* "I'm sitting, just sitting. I don't breathe. How could I breathe when I know they can hear every sound I make, even the slightest one? They, I mean the Aliens, don't have a name. We didn't give them one because it would mean we care about them: the last thing we want is getting to know them. I mean who would want to? Despite our obvious resentment, they told us how they were called: the Matters." A special thanks to @Stup3f1X for the cover!!!!! #1 in Alien

Planatae by doodooferguson

In the empty, cold expanse of the Home Galaxy, life needs a cradle, a planet to spark it into existence. Given the right conditions, it can become something incredible - something self aware. And when that happens, the planet that helped it along might just take notice... Planatae are mysterious, sentient planets that are sustained by the collective consciousness of the people who inhabit it. In exchange for the chance to think and feel, these planets bestow upon their inhabitants a Factor - a particular ability that aids adaptation in a specific environment. Ricardia Yigera is on the run; more willing to carve out a life in the darkness of Onyx Station then return to the comfort of home for a terrible crime she's committed. Trapped by her guilty conscious, she's unsure of what to do - and how to make amends. Jasper Drift thought he'd finally found tranquility, hidden away in paradise - until his military past comes back to catch him - and the extremly valuable asset he's been keeping hidden for years. Lukas Adamas is the son of one of space's most prestigious scientists, a woman hell-bent on unlocking the secrets of the Planatae. Ambitious and determined, Lukas wants to follow in her footsteps. But when his mother hears a rumor, one that has the potential to change everything they understand about the Planatae, Lukas is dragged along into a web of conspiracy and responcibility he may not have been fully prepared for. Amidst clashing galactic empires and the enigmatic workings of the Planetae, these three will find themselves wrapped up in a conspiracy that none of them asked for.
