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 MethodTodos los derechos reservados

Mirror Sky. Part 1 - Blissful Nemesis de pwkos171

The future is predetermined. It can't be changed. But who casts the future in stone? It's you, me, and every one of us. The iron grip of our fate doesn't come from gods or physics but from us. You are oppressed by your future self to walk the one and only road. Knowing the future changes nothing - this knowledge has already been written into your fate. Time travel is meaningless for the same reason - all your meddlings had also become a part of your fate before you even embarked on your journey through time. Could this strange duality of free will and fate be challenged? If so, what would it take? How far are you willing to go to change your dark fate? Is the risk of erasing the universe from existence worth your brighter future?

Samsara Fall Online: Isekai de Lycanhunt3r

Transferring into a hardcore MMORPG is one thing, waking up alone inside a legendary dungeon in the body of his weakest character is a whole difficulty level above his job description. Can a lone wolf sick of grinding items and reading useless lore adapt to a medieval world filled with living and breathing NPCs, where magic and strategy are essential for survival, and reaching zero health means permanent death? ...If only he were in his strongest account, perhaps he could've gone for the heroic path. = = = = = = Official info-site: https://lycanhunter.weebly.com/sfo.html BETTER RE-EDITED VERSION of VOLUME 1> https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F1TQWCF4?

My sun warrior system de 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 de 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?

Terraria: Another Day Under the Glass de WBarney

'Death never stops surprising you.' A sentiment Aria knows all too well. Her world on its surface is perfect. A completely enclosed ecosystem protected from the nuclear winter of the Outside World. No sickness, no famine, nothing to worry about. Nothing that is except for Spectre, the computer system that determines who lives and dies annually based on their importance to society. Somehow everyone around her seems to cope, but seeing as how Spectre has taken every member of her family, Aria struggles to fall in line with the status quo. Whether it's pressure from the powers that be, her first potential love, or full on revolution, Aria seems to be pulled in every direction, each one with drastic consequences, and no clue which way to go.

White Crystal Butterflies | Wattys 2021 Shortlist | ✔ de SmokeAndOranges

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2021 Shortlister. Standalone sequel (Rocks Can Dance) coming in 2023. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated. I write characters from many different backgrounds, with many different experiences. If you share those traits and find that I have misrepresented anything, please let me know!

This is not an Apocalypse de 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.

Ascension: The Forsaken Path de 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.
