Benjamin Stanton has always wanted to pilot star ships since as far as he can remember. His best friend, Dain Burr'den, a half bear half man hybrid from a long line of genetically modified humans, wants to get enough money together so that he and his mate can settle down. Aina is an artificial intelligence that wants to escape her gilded cage. When Dain is sentenced to death in a lawless section of space, the three steal a prototype smuggling ship from a black market robber baron named Darian Mathias and try to escape into the vast reaches of the galaxy. But Mathias, who is obsessed with the ship and the AI, will stop at nothing to get them back. Now the three have to survive anyway they can, taking whatever jobs they can, while trying to evade bounty hunters looking to make a fortune by capturing the crew.

This is a story i self published on amazon.  I did so with the intention of seeing what people thought of it, but it kind of got buried and I couldn't get much feedback.  I figured I'd put it here to see if I could get some good feedback.All Rights Reserved

Terra (A Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare FanFiction) by brontideandsough

It has been 40-some years since Captain Nick Reyes and his crew attacked Mars in an attempt to destroy Salen Kotch's reign with the SDF. Now, a new threat of SDF forces has risen, and although Earth has been restored since the attacks, the planet is still in grave danger. A young woman by the name of Terra Sloane escapes Earth after the SDF's deadly attack, heading to Mars. There, the supposed Captain Reyes is still alive, through which a secret no one knows. Though he is supposed to be in a coma-like state, Terra runs into him in the wastelands of Mars after crash-landing. Convincing him to return with her, Terra begins a journey to defeat the high power of the SDF: Colis. His plans to destroy the solar system with the new SDF are more powerful than ever before and it won't be long before the entire solar system is obliterated. With this unexpected journey Terra begins, she learns the truth to more secrets than she thinks possible. With those come betrayal, loss and even a bit of unintentional love. ~~~ This is a work of FAN-fiction, therefore I don't own everything in this story. Terra, the rebels, some ships, Colis and other minor characters are from my mind. There are also some locations, unless specified, that belong to me. Reyes and any parts of the story having to do with the game's original campaign rightfully belong to the creators of Call of Duty games. I only intend to satisfy the needs of fans and readers! :) WARNING: There will be strong language, gore-filled parts and SOME minor sexual talk/activity. Prepare yourselves if you intend to read anyways. ~Began writing July 18, 2017~ -Finished August 12, 2018-

The Titan of Beltar by ThomasFenneyMather

When humanity's last colony ship reached Al-Vedroon, they thought they'd found a new home. The locals weren't so keen. Fast-forward a thousand years, and against the backdrop of a decaying technomagic dystopia, a lowly Sorceress becomes embroiled in an epic plot that will shake the foundations of society and put all the world at risk. She believes her destiny is to be the Saviour. Others have a different idea. *** This is a complete novel of 23 chapters, and I'd love to hear your comments and feedback so I can make it even better. I will endeavour to post one chapter every friday as I finish my second edit. Also if you like it please vote and share with your friends! Thanks very much, Fen :#)

20 days left by JadeRoss2

This story is sci-fi, romantic and a highly dramatic teen fiction about Amber and Ryan as we hear the tale of how two enemies turn into lovers as they struggle to survive for 20 days on a deserted planet... This tale tugs a few heart strings and has some bizarre moments. Please let me know what you think as this is the first story I've ever written/shared/finished and would love to hear some opinions! Let the haters hate and the lovers love.

Anew Love (TSAMS AU) by SammiZeWrlt3r

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ruins plan was to completely erase the creator counsel...But when he finally began interacting more with Solar, he had to completely revise his plan, just so he could keep Solar around for awhile...But when Solar has a tough time adjusting to true love, and a solemn secret arises...Ruin has to learn patience, But how can he be patient with such an urgent matter of love?? Find out in this story!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TW's and Explanations In this AU, there is mentions of a semi-abusive relationship. I fully understand if you do not want to read this, and there will be TW's for the sections of the story that contain the mentions. I will (At some point) make a version that cuts this for those who are sensitive to the subject. In this au, the ship MechanicalShark (Solar x Ruin) is a prime factor in the au. I understand the reason people dislike the ship, Ruin killed Solar. However, This au takes place before the fact, And changes that event heavily. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PERSONAL NOTES I am in foster care and am being flopped around AGAIN, possibly going 500 Miles away from this computer I use. I will attempt to update when I can, please give suggestions!!

Ascension by lkhunt0814

There is no such thing as a good side and bad side in a war. We are both the good and bad side. It just depends on your perspective. At the end of the day when the sun goes down we are still the murderers who took the lives of hundreds and sometimes thousands. We are still the ones who have orphaned children. And you call us saints but no, soldiers are murderers who hide behind patriotism and lies. -Lorelei Jameson WARNING THIS IS A SEQUEL. Go read Journey before you read Ascension. Lorelei and Indiana escape from Headquarters only to find out that the war is in full swing. even though the Colony is getting more and more recruitments everyday they still only have a fraction of the amount the Extorians have. They start to receive aid from a planet known as Orion A in the Orion Binary system. The people on Cambaar start to wonder if they really are on the planet of Cambaar. Someone is keeping secrets and they might decide the fate of the Colony. The plan to end the war just might work but it is the most controversial topic in history. The people of Cambaar split into two sides over the final battle. Lorelei still doesn't believe it will work. As the war rages forward relationships unravel. Sanity is lost. And blood is spilt across the forbidding land. They finally begin to understand what it means when they hear "The price of war isn't just blood". 5- nuclear war (6-17-19)

Incident at Saris by Charmsp1

** Story is now complete** (Quote) In everyone's life, there is a time to break away, to start your own journey, to become your own person, and it is time to take ours! Ren. When naive alien brothers, Rik and Ren decide to leave their comfortable safe life and set out on their own as Freelancers they find that their first adventure takes them into a situation they aren't quite used too and find that they have to learn to adapt quickly and that the world isn't as safe as they thought it was! or that it would be as easy as they thought it would be and have to learn to rely on themselves and the crew of their small ship and basically come of age. The story I admit is strongly inspired by both Star Wars and Firefly but it is not taken in either of those universes although it could easily fit in both of them. And thanks to CANVA for providing the cover. Rik and Ren are original characters, the art inside the book is my own. And I thank anyone who reads, comments, and even votes on this! Also please note I am Australian so this contains Australian spellings.

A Starship Called Starsong by CrystalScherer

Computer updates are simple, right? Apparently, that's not always the case when it involves a Spaceship's AI in the middle of deep space. We have always relied upon technology to travel through space, but sometimes that very same technology has a mind of its own... (This story has a happy ending) -------- Sneak Peek: A flashing orange light in the top corner of my handheld device prompted me to check the system status page. My jaw dropped. All sorts of systems were going offline. Water, sewage, air, heating, cooling, weapons, and many more. What was going on? The Overseer was more decisive than I was. "Go help get the air systems back online. We can eat dry rations for two weeks, but we can't hold our breath for that long." I took off running once more. I hadn't gone far when I almost ran right into Logan. I asked, "What going on?" He grabbed my shoulders urgently. "The main computer's AI is taking over the entire ship. I need to get to a backup mainframe to try and reverse the upgrade, but I can't find the room! The AI messed up the electronic maps, and I have never been to this one before! Where is the Delta access room?!" My mind tried to wrap itself around the details as I gave directions, "...then turn left and it's by the plumbing room on that level." "Thanks!" He took off running. ------- Please note there is no romance in this story. :) A huge thank you to @JimenaVivancoo for making the cover! Copyright April 2018. All Rights Reserved.

The Curious by Sophielynn03

*UNDER EDITTING* (If you have any constructive criticism lmk bc I have no idea what I'm doing) If you're looking for a book that has enemies-to lovers, conspiracy, and rebels, then this is the book for you! It also has a Divergent and Hunger Games (especially the last book) feel to it, so if you're into that then you should check it out! Enjoy! "Echo Callix you are under arrest." "What?! Why? What are the charges?!" "Inquisitorial behavior." Echo Callix lives in a world where being curious is illegal. Anyone who asks questions mysteriously disappears.

Archcore: Children of War by -PatoraCh-

Even In The Face of Death, We'll Rise. In the distant future, mankind's reach has gone beyond the stars, but the galaxy remains in turmoil. Though the Century War has ended, Earth and the supreme government NOVA still rule the colonies with an iron fist. For the people of the Venus colonies, their only hope to gain independence lies with the private military company Amaryllis, medically enhanced child soldiers, and a legendary Sentinel called Sentoria. Soon a new conflict begins to form when the Amaryllis accept a mission to aid a colony on Earth, unaware of the events that'll unfold from this single job. *It's all fiction* *Images (if any) are used for visual reference* *This story is a work of fiction.

Homeland by CoryDoctorow

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -- In Cory Doctorow’s wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco—an experience that led him to become a leader of the whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state. A few years later, California's economy collapses, but Marcus’s hacktivist past lands him a job as webmaster for a crusading politician who promises reform. Soon his former nemesis Masha emerges from the political underground to gift him with a thumbdrive containing a Wikileaks-style cable-dump of hard evidence of corporate and governmental perfidy. It’s incendiary stuff—and if Masha goes missing, Marcus is supposed to release it to the world. Then Marcus sees Masha being kidnapped by the same government agents who detained and tortured Marcus years earlier. Marcus can leak the archive Masha gave him—but he can’t admit to being the leaker, because that will cost his employer the election. He’s surrounded by friends who remember what he did a few years ago and regard him as a hacker hero. He can’t even attend a demonstration without being dragged onstage and handed a mike. He’s not at all sure that just dumping the archive onto the Internet, before he’s gone through its millions of words, is the right thing to do. Meanwhile, people are beginning to shadow him, people who look like they’re used to inflicting pain until they get the answers they want. Fast-moving, passionate, and as current as next week, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother—a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.
