They called it the war to end all wars- A war to drag the abominations of this world to the gates of hell. The bloodiest conflict in recorded history. A battle for one eternal, undeniable truth: Power. No one truly remembers how it began. All that's known is that it changed the world forever. Once, children grew up on tales of mythical beasts- Centaurs prowling the forests. Elves thriving in their silver cities. Dwarves forging deep beneath the mountains. Vampires ruling the night. Dragons dominating the skies. Sea serpents and mermaids haunting the oceans. Werewolves howling under the moon. They reigned for centuries, terrorizing humanity-until humankind began to awaken. Abilities surfaced, gifts meant to fight back. But it still wasn't enough. Only when science, ancient magic extracted from captured creatures, and the iron will of the Church converged did humanity strike back with something new. They called it The Angel Project. Children as young as five were taken from homes and orphanages. Their parents were compensated. The children were not. They were sealed in tubes, subjected to unspeakable experiments. Only fourteen survived. They were forged into living weapons-trained relentlessly, bonded to celestial beings, and forced to wield angelic power against the monsters. They became humanity's last hope. But power has a price. And monsters aren't always born-they're made. "He who fights with monsters should take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you."

*wattys 2018 shortlist* *writer's awards sci-fi winner* It all started with an accident. Through vast consolidation begets a single empire bordering on the mere idea of war with an enemy threatening to destroy its entire existence, starting from the inside. Many call it tyranny, others, vengeful menace, but it's taking them down. One by one. A series of events follow, including a spy, a plan destined to fail and a desperate offer that puts everything on the line. She wasn't what they were hoping for. But they take what they can get. Once rejected by the place they called home, five estranged teens jump at the opportunity for an escape. Thrust into an unknown underwater society at random, it's a gamble for life and death, win or lose. Fast forward to friendship, rivalry, loyalty, borderline sorcery, and a second home that'll change their lives as they know it. But as the days grow by, and the game of cat and mouse breaks its final straw, blending in a world not meant for them is not as easy as it seems. Especially when you try to save a colony whilst saving yourself. *this story is/will be rewriting.
