The war between the United States and Lysland were always fair. Heated, and at times scary, but always fair... until they weren't. 

The opposing country landed a devastating missile strike on the U.S., decimating most of the population except a select few who happened to survive the destruction. However, the strikes left them with more than just injuries and grief. Tales from Merrimore Trail follows the story of a group of survivors who navigate a post-war United States, having to work together to survive, and rediscover who they are after being given this second chance at life. Will they crumble under the pressure or become stronger because of it?

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier
30 parts Complete
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.
We Were Stardust Once by rrrick_grimesss
27 parts Ongoing
They were born from the stars, but the world refuses to let them stay. It has been three years since the Genesis Flares, the solar phenomenon that gave birth to Astrans: beings with abilities beyond human comprehension. Some see them as miracles, others as abominations but to those in power, they are a threat that must be controlled, exploited, or eradicated. Fear spreads like wildfire, and war is inevitable. Among the displaced and the hunted, a survivor fights to carve out a future for her people, refusing to let them be erased from history. By her side stands the one who saved her, a sister in all but blood, a friend who has vowed to protect her, even if it means keeping dangerous secrets. As alliances fracture and loyalties are tested, they must navigate a world that has already decided what they are: enemies. In the heart of the conflict, two minds once dedicated to progress now wrestle with the weight of their own creations. One, a scientist bound by failing health, seeks to undo the greatest mistake of his life before time runs out. The other, an engineer thrust unwillingly into war, struggles between duty, regret, and the burden of being the only one left to fight. Lines blur between vengeance and justice, survival and sacrifice. The choices they make will determine not only the outcome of the war but the future of the Astrans themselves. Before the war, before the fear, they were all the same. They were all stardust once.

The war

31 parts Ongoing Mature

Two worlds divided. Two hearts betrayed. One secret that could destroy them both. Gabriella is a Sylvanian soldier with the power to command shadows. Richard is a Valortorian commander from a land where no one has powers- and where evols like hers are seen as threats. For five years, they risked everything to be together in secret. Until one day, he vanished. Now, a year later, Richard is back in Sylvan with a mission he won't explain and a story he refuses to tell. Gabriella doesn't know if she wants to kill him or kiss him- but she knows one thing: she'll never forgive him for leaving her. What she doesn't know is that Richard was taken- imprisoned, tortured, and silenced by his own people. He stayed away to protect her. But the war between their worlds is growing colder. And the truth is more dangerous than either of them can imagine. - This story is a collab with my best friend @Aileenloves once again!
