Deathsworn (Wattys 2018 Winner) by MichaelPanter5

** WATTYS 2018 WINNER ** Not one person in the history of the world ever said being Deathsworn was an easy thing. Fun, sometimes, and completely your fault, but never easy. You have one rule that you obey, unless, of course, you want to die. Your life is your list, your list is your life. For the Gallowmen, their journey as Deathsworn has seen them travel the broken realm of Oblivia. From Green Country to the Island Kingdoms, from Sand Country to the Scavania. Death follows where they go, their list gets shorter, and the dream of life becomes half-real. It would be fine if things were that simple. But curious things are happening in the west and the Burned Priests are charged with confronting the Empire's greatest threats. Where they point, the Deathsworn must go. They'll do their job, ask no questions, and get their freedom. Or they'll die trying. *Deathsworn is a spin-off story from a much larger trilogy I'm currently writing. Comments/reviews/feedback would be greatly appreciated wherever possible. Volume I of IV is COMPLETE ... Enjoy.

The Last Queen's Hidden - The Veiled Queens by ZombieMutter

Allegra, known to everyone as Alli, is almost 16 years old and feels different. While her classmates spend their summer holidays on exciting trips, Alli and her single mother are stuck with the routine of their small train station kiosk. She is far from popular at school, and at home, silence often fills the air. But recently, Alli has noticed something changing within her. Her senses are becoming sharper, her instincts more intense, and she feels that something deep inside her is awakening-something she can't explain. What might seem like ordinary puberty turns out to be much more. Alli begins to perceive the world around her differently, as if she doesn't quite belong. Her mother watches these changes with concern but remains silent, keeping Alli at a distance. One day, when Alli makes a strange discovery in the old garden shed behind their house, questions start to arise: Who is she really? And why does she sometimes feel like a stranger in her own skin? Alli has no idea that she is at the start of a journey that will forever change her understanding of herself and the world. A secret her mother has been hiding for years is about to be revealed-a secret meant to protect her from a threat far beyond anything Alli could ever have imagined.

Wychling by Norman_Christoph

Tal is no ordinary fourteen-year-old girl. Perhaps it was that she had grown up without a Mother, or perhaps it was that she did have a useless Father, and two increasingly distant Brother's. Maybe it was that her favourite hobbies included thieving with street orphans that didn't know her name, and leaping from rooftop to rooftop at night, just to feel free from every other part of her life. Maybe she was the freak her neighbours thought her to be. But then, after another long evening of disappointed silence from her Father, and staring down a future she did not want that was closing her fast, Tal escapes out into the cold rain. Little does she know that something big is waiting for her nearby. Something that does not belong on her ordinary street. Something that will forever change her not so ordinary life...

Non-magicals, or Inops, in complete ignorance of their powerful counterparts. Destan doesn't fit in with either society. Though his younger sister Julia lives with the Inops and does not have any powers, Destan can bend the atoms of any object to his will. His tribe, however, has made him an outcast for a horrible mistake he made when he was just a little boy. Lonely and desperate, Destan makes another mistake a decade later. By showing himself to Julia and her adoptive family of Inops, he makes himself a target - and by doing so, he makes his tribe a target. The costs pile up higher and higher as the quarrel between the two sides turns into a full-blown war. Can Destan make up for what he's done, before both factions turn on him?

We suffered, while they fattened their bellies. No more, now we deserve justice. We will ravage through their countryside, we shall burn their homes, and slaughter their young. For now, our rebellion has begun. The time of my people's slavery ends with me for I will lead my people to greatness. The Cinari will do anything to stop me, with their ancient war machines and pathetic armies. But I will push them back and claim what is rightfully mine. We built their Empire with our blood and tears. It is time we take it back. When I was a slave, they called me M-24:6. But as a free man, they know me as Marak. Content warning: This story mentions and features mature content. Which includes sexual assault, torture, gore, genocide, slavery, racism, and more. (Book 1 of 2 of the Capital series)
