Dead Belt: True Tales of the Gasping Frontier is a list of audio transcripts for the space-folk horror anthology podcast of skillful and desperate scavengers picking over the remains of the junked starships caught in the gravity of the supermassive black hole, SAG-A. Here, you'll hear the tales of strange happenings on the fringe of settled space...the kind of thing the Terran Concordiat don't much want you to know: Close encounters, weird happenings, narrow escapes, and lonesome deaths far beyond the stars we know.  Drawing on old mariner's tales from the oceans of Earth, filk tradition, and the superstition and ghost stories of the American West, Dead Belt is written for those that know that when we push out among the darkness between the stars, sometimes it pushes right on back.

THE VOID // sci-fi, dystopian by iluvsoggycockroaches

**static voice over the comm** "y-you.....you know.... far too much" the voice was shaky, hiding its barely contained rage. "Where am I?!. What are you? What the hell are you talking about??" Ariba's tense voice calls out into the dark abyss. no one can be seen far, far away as she keeps walking towards nothing. "it's too late! There's no saving us" Ariba freezes. what does this mean?? Where am I?? "YOU KNOW FAR TOO MUCH!" the voice cries. "YOU KNOW FAR TOO MUCH ARI-!" the heavy voice screams with fear and the comm goes blank. "Who are you? What does all this mean huh?!" "Ariba.....it's too late." She stops in her tracks as her eyes widen. That voice..... "Nitin...?" "Is that you?" she spoke with defeat clear in her tone. "It's too late, there's no turning back now." In a world where silence is law and memory is a weapon, who will you serve? The Alliance or the Void?

0-SA (The Last Ship Series) by NikolaiWolfe

18+ (Xenophile) Smut. Violence. Gore. Foul Language. The year is 3787, the Earth is in ruin, and the infectious spores plagues the world below. After many failed attempts to remove the spore infection and the intelligent lifeforms that brought it known as the Irinaut, several large ships were sent into space to save the human race, but some people remained. Those who stayed, either had no choice in the matter or were part of the expedition crews. The people who were looking for some sort of cure all. Some, scientists looking to communicate or even experiment on the Irinaut race. Though it wasn't only the infection they had to worry about. Infected Irinaut were aggressive, and finding one without the sickness at this point was seeming out of reach with no hopes of communicating. That is, until now. A group of soldiers had been left with a task of transporting precious cargo. After several facilities being attacked by the estranged Irinaut, a young soldier known as Raven, finds herself curious to why this Irinaut is so important in finding. The being wasn't like other's any of them had seen. They wanted to know how it was possible in the world that was nothing but desert, and infection. 0-Sa was also alone, which was unusual for the species. The Irinaut became valuable quite quickly, having found no spore infection visibly on him. The team had one job, obtain and return the creature alive, but they would soon come to find out that the cargo would be more difficult to transport then they thought.

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?
