It's the 21st century...
The status quo believes that carbon dioxide causes CATASTROPHIC global warming.

Galileo is "pulled" out of the sixteenth century and put on the stand.

Armed with science he goes against the status quo.
Would you burn Galileo?

What would happen if Galileo were alive today?

What happens when you oppose the holy brotherhood of climate model experts and the crowd of deluded citizens who believe the numbers predicted by the computer models?

Would he survive Western Civilization and the Politically Correct Thought Police?
This SHORT STORY is a brisk and refreshing walk through the Socratic MethodTutti i diritti riservati

Overthrowing the Netheril Empire is the mission! Destroying the Elven Kingdom and the Elven Pantheon is the duty! Eradicating ancient evils and natural disasters is Matthew's shout as he crushes fate! "Brothers and sisters, join Bay Territory! Here, we give out houses, provide free childcare, no worries about food or clothing, assign jobs, and supply all resources needed for life." "Furthermore, we can even offer the path to godhood..." "Everyone only needs to pay a small price of one billion!" A slow-burn farming novel, a new world of dragons and dungeons, a magical version of the Warhammer Empire, and an unprecedented, fresh new version for everyone.

Fountellion: Mira in the Green Game di Ademc77

In a world saturated by technology and virtual experiences, Mira, a disconnected and emotionally distant teenager, finds herself lost in the digital haze of modern life. She's grown numb to the world around her, her relationships, and even her own sense of self. But when she stumbles upon 'Fountellion', an immersive virtual game designed to reconnect players with nature, she embarks on a journey that will change her life forever. In Fountellion, players explore a vast island with an evolving ecosystem, where every action has consequences. The island is divided into **seven colored regions**, each representing a different aspect of the human spirit. To progress, players must unlock Insights, which are tied to their understanding of nature, survival, and themselves. The game is more than just a quest for survival; it's a journey of self-discovery, spiritual growth, and, unexpectedly for Mira, a path to love. Ready, players green...?

My sun warrior system di Jonathon658

In a war-torn world where survival is a daily battle, Erie, an orphan abandoned on the outskirts of the city, struggles against a society that has cast him aside. With the ruins of the past serving as his home and the ever-present threat of elemental beasts lurking beyond, he fights to carve out a place for himself. When a mysterious system awakens within him, offering strength and guidance, Erie sees a path to escape his harsh reality. But power comes with a cost. As he trains relentlessly, pushing his body beyond human limits, he begins to draw unwanted attention-both from those who fear change and those who seek to control it. Tasked with reaching City Hall under a strict time limit, Erie embarks on a dangerous journey with his closest friend, Alex. But the road is treacherous. The remnants of past battles scar the landscape, and the city's gatekeepers show no mercy to those without status. When Alex suddenly disappears, Erie is forced into a deadly confrontation that tests his newfound abilities. As the clock ticks down, Erie must decide-does he risk everything to save his friend, or does he push forward to secure his own future? With enemies in every shadow and a fate he has yet to understand, Erie's journey is only beginning. But one thing is certain-he won't remain powerless forever.

Inveigle di J_S_Fulton

Cora Carpenter lives in an America where over 90% of the popular vote went to one presidential candidate. New policies pervade the American culture such as the Better Homes Better Future Act where all pregnant couples must pass an IQ test with 90 or higher and scores are tattooed on the infants skull for record keeping. Anything lower and the child is given to a more suitable home. Or the Volunteer Tax because if someone has time to dedicate to the less fortunate, then they must of course have extra income to spare. The best part, everyone agrees to these laws because if not one phone call is all it takes for someone to disappear. But what if persuasion isn't a learned skill but a gift embedded into a person by ancient beings? And what if these ancient beings are at war with each other?

Master Of The Square di korgissss

This is not an Apocalypse di 01Honeybadger

The world is changing, two years ago strange weather, various anomalies and strange creatures started appearing from nowhere all over the world. Some creatures were completely alien and others were familiar looking as if they'd stepped from myth and legend. What many of these creatures had in common however was their aggressive nature and predatory instinct. Things that go bump in the night, that shifting shadow in the dark alley way, the cracking branch right behind you. Nightmarish creatures now stalk the land. Monsters. That isn't the only change in a new world however, humans have also changed. Some unknown phenomenon has granted humanity access to incredible power. The very elements themselves can now be wielded by those willing to risk the dangers. Earth, wind, fire, water, suddenly magic has become possible in a modern world and there are many who are eager to develop and embrace their newfound power and help protect their fellow man from monsters. There are also many who are willing to make a profit from newfound opportunities this changing world provides. Unfortunately for our MC Jack, embracing newfound power and going out to valiantly battle monsters isn't quite as simple as most other people have it. He possesses the rare and not so sought after lightning element, considered the weakest element for certain reasons, pitied and looked down upon Jack is determined to become a successful monster hunter in a more and more dangerous world. A slow burn story with world building, dungeon delving, character progression, Litrpg elements and more. WARNING - The MC is not a Mary Sue, he is not super competent, or super powerful or super intelligent nor a paragon of virtue, just a normal guy in a not so normal situation and him growing to deal with it in his own way.

The Four - Book 1 di gracey_liz

(NOT EDITED AT ALL) (LOTS OF GRAMMAR ERRORS) (I was young when I wrote this lol) "You're special, fire boy," the man grins, "you and the others are just getting started." - Fire. Earth. Water. Air. It's 2890. In the US, everyone gets one of the elements powers when they are born, usually their parents element. But the elements no longer get along. They keep themselves separated from one another, not daring to interact, knowing it will cause havoc and destruction. But the government wants to test the elements together. And they've been watching, waiting for the right elements that can handle the job. And they've found them. *** Highest rank: #5 in Science Fiction Cover: @lucifehh WARNING: There is some harsh language, read at your own risk

Ascension: The Forsaken Path di GabrielGolfin8

Betrayed. Abandoned. Left to die in the depths of a dungeon. Kael Veyron was never meant to be special. Born a commoner in a world where strength is dictated by the one skill granted at birth, he was doomed to mediocrity. His skill, Phantom Edge, was nothing more than a footnote in a world ruled by nobles born with power beyond reach. He trained harder than anyone, fought against fate itself-only to be discarded by the very team he trusted. Stranded in an uncharted dungeon, surrounded by monsters lurking in the darkness, Kael should have died. But something changed. When he defeated his first beast, he discovered a secret no one else knew. A power that should have been impossible-the ability to absorb the attributes of the creatures he killed. Now, in the shadows of the world that abandoned him, Kael will rise. He will evolve. He will adapt. And when he walks back into the world that left him behind, they won't recognize the man they tried to kill. They will fear him.
