~PARAGON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: PHASE 1, BOOK 5~
*This novel serves as a concurrent story to both Viper's Bite and Shocker Rising. It does reference some minor events from those novels, but this story may otherwise be enjoyed separately.*
"Alpin would rather have Flamestar burn the entire world alive than see a woman ascend the Boreal Throne." -Firebird
The Mage Aspects are an otherworldly order of elementalists who hail from another dimension. The four sects that compose them-the Fire Sect, the Ice Sect, the Water Sect, and the Earth Sect-work among the humans of Earth in secret, protecting them from natural disasters, as well as other more trivial crimes should the need arise.
Quite possibly the Aspects' greatest pupil so far is the 17-year-old girl named Cassie, given the designation "Coldsnap" by her colleagues. Initially born with a slight vision defect, she has shown immense potential in her ice manipulation abilities, rivaling that of the Ice Sect's leader, Frost King Alpin, who sees her as a threat to his rule; furthermore, her clashing views on humanity compared to his own don't help much, for she believes that the Aspects should form proper relationships with Earth's inhabitants while Alpin thinks they should stay hidden. Fearful that she could usurp him one day, the Frost King banishes her from the Aspects entirely and casts her down to Earth, lying that he is preparing her for a "much greater purpose", when it was truly just an act of envy.
Unfortunately, this paves the way for the power-hungry leader of the Fire Sect, Morton Flamestar, to begin enacting his plans to conquer Earth and drown it in an eternal flame, seeing humanity as not being worth the Aspects' trouble. Now, it's up to Coldsnap to unite the other three sects and push back against Flamestar's corruption, before the world's entire population perishes in the fires of his hatred.

Coldsnap: Apocalypse
~PARAGON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: PHASE 3, BOOK 5~ *This novel serves as the 5th novel of Phase 3 and a sequel to "Coldsnap: Storm's Call".* "The Dark Inquisitor decrees it; the Elemental Realms are at an end! Now, watch as your pitiful dimension which has endured for eons.....crumbles to DUST!" -Shade After multiple successful adventures with the Paragons, the Mage Aspect superheroine Coldsnap continues to rule over the Ice Sect of the Elemental Realms with a perfect mixture of respect and discipline. However, the icy icon may be about to face her greatest challenge yet. The Ascendant, the "god" of the Mage Aspects, has gone missing. In his absence, the Elemental Realms' protection against most external threats has started to wane. Elsewhere, in deep space, a plot is underway to invade the Elemental Realms and eradicate the Mage Aspects entirely, orchestrated by none other than Dark Inquisitor Lizala of the Cosmic Armada, a ruthless intergalactic conqueror intent on adding Earth to her growing list of sundered worlds.....and in order to do that, she intends to wipe out a major category of Earth's defenders-the Mage Aspects-in preparation. With the fate of the Realms themselves now hanging in the balance, Coldsnap must team up with her girlfriend Keena, her good friends Firebird and Geode, and Geode's father Sledge-the sole surviving member of the original Mage Aspect leaders-to find The Ascendant and protect the dimension from Lizala's imminent incursion.....and failure could mean the end of the Realms as we know it. • Cover designed by @CastimentComplete
Weigh Out Way-In
There is an unexpected turn in the story that drastically changes the course of events and, in the long run, even the lives of those involved. Magpie, the first to be involved, suddenly finds himself in the world so unlike his own. Will he find his place there or will he be at least able to go back home? He seems to find his way back from this new world of giga-dimensions but something unwanted happens, and things go worse. The cultural differences, together with a challenging personality traits of another involved in the events, suck Magpie and his friends into a downward spiral. The story challenges you to see the world differently from the perspective you are perhaps too used to and narrowed by. Life can be an adventure if you don't narrow it with a bigotry that forces you to be rooted in your trenches and behind your dividing walls. This doesn't mean you have to accept others' views without standing your ground. However, to be able to share our lives in this one and only world we need to make compromises, on both sides. Are you the first brave one to set this positive trend in motion? So read on and let the foundation of the story be laid. From the end of episode 1 on, the story really picks up, finally reaching its climax at the end of episode 3 with quite a surprising finish. Your participation in solving this shared challenge of coexistence and cooperation is highly appreciated. Remember those who cooperate make more progress than those who don't! The ideal audience for my first book is actually between 12 and 16, but anybody older and interested in adventures, cultures and in getting more understanding into our multifaceted world is sure to enjoy the story. (The whole story has now been published, the only thing I'll still add is the final epilogue but the story is already available in its entirety.)Complete
A Court of Smoke and Twilight
He is the Night Court's silent blade, a shadowsinger bound by duty and scars. But when dusk itself answers his call, desire and destiny entwine-and the walls he's built may finally begin to break. This is an Azriel-centered fanfiction, imagining the events after A Court of Silver Flames (incl. the bonus chapters), and featuring a new OC. Disclaimer: I haven't read Throne of Glass or Crescent City just yet, so none of the events in those series have been taken into account in this fanfiction. Let me know your thoughts about this in the comments! I would love to discuss 🩶Coldsnap: Storm's Call
~PARAGON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: PHASE 2, BOOK 5~ *This novel serves as the 5th novel of Phase 2 and a sequel to "Coldsnap: Harbinger of Ice" and "The Paragons".* "The Ascendant has abandoned us! Were we not good enough for him?! Is that it?! Must we now sit back and watch from isolation as the rest of the Mage Aspects continue to bask in his glory?! No! Soon, all of you deity-worshipping maggots......AND the Ascendant himself......shall know the wrath of the storm!" -Commander Windsor Galeforce Now an official member of the Paragons, the Mage Aspect Coldsnap continues to lead the Ice Sect from the Elemental Realms after having ousted her former mentor, Frost King Alpin, and claiming his throne after exposing him for the monster he was. Aiding her are her three friends: Firebird, a fire mage who is now at the helm of the Fire Sect following Morton Flamestar's demise. Keena, Coldsnap's lover, who usurped her own mentor as well in a bid for power. And Geode, whose father Sledge-the leader of the Earth Sect-is now advancing in age and training his son to succeed him in the future. However, it may be time for the new Sect Leaders to face the music. Following a sudden assault on the Grand Terminus by a new, rogue faction of Mage Aspects who hold dominion over the wind and storm, Coldsnap and her allies must venture to their foes' home region, Skycrest, work to defend their dimension-and the planet-from complete annihilation, and forge a new path for the Elemental Realms......all while discovering the storm mages' true motivations along the way. • Cover designed by @CastimentComplete

Fated
In a world surrounded by evil and shadows, a young healer's defiance becomes legend. When Vaela Thorne is dragged to the Mountain, a place of nightmares ruled by a monster in silk and blood; her fate seems sealed. Scarred, silenced, and stripped of everything but the fire in her veins, she refuses to kneel for a self-proclaimed 'High Queen'. But night watched her from the throne's edge: Rhysand, feared High Lord of the Night Court, whose cruelty is matched only by the secrets behind his eyes. The High Lord recognizes her as the ghost of a female he would dream of; he then takes her as his 'pet', where Vaela and Rhysand are forced into a deadly dance of masks and a bargain, where every lie hides longing, and every touch is edged with danger. When they shattered the chains from Amarantha, and Rhysand calls upon their bargain, he takes Vaela to his Court. Where they both fought to know and find freedom once more. But Prythian was never truly free: an ancient evil darkness stirs in the forgotten corners of the world. Not of this realm, hungering for destruction, it's gaze fixed upon Vaela and the secret she carries deep in her soul. Now the fate of courts and hearts hangs in the balance. And as love blooms in the heart of night and war shadows the horizon, Vaela must reckon with who and what she truly is. ✦ . ⁺ . ✦ . ⁺ . ✦ Ranking history: #1 in acourtofthornsandroses #1 in rhysand #1 in cassian #1 in romantasy #1 in throneofglass #1 in elf #1 in azriel #1 in tog ✦ . ⁺ . ✦ . ⁺ . ✦ •Rhysand x Main OC and eventually later on through the story: Azriel x OC and Cassian x OC. •This story will have a different story plot than the original. •Story is 18+ only. •Peep my patreon for 'Fated' content and spicy art ;) •DISCLAIMER: All rights of the ACOTAR universe belong to Sarah J Maas except for my OC's.

Let it slip under your skin. Let it stir something you didn't expect. If you feel that pull... don't fight it. Give in. One page. One taste. That's all it takes. And after that? You'll chase every word like it's a sin you're dying to repeat. Decide now. Step in. And find out what you were never supposed to know. Then turn the page... And let everything find you. No summaries. No warnings. Only the pull of something you didn't know you were looking for. Keep going- You'll understand soon enough. 🖤 When fire collides with frost, something rare is born- Not quite a burn. Not quite a freeze. Something that lingers... and changes everything. She's fierce, untamed-refusing to be anyone's pawn. He's ice in human form-calm, calculated, dangerously composed. But when their worlds crash, the rules they lived by begin to fracture. She won't bow. He won't bend. Yet somehow, they're unraveling-in each other's orbit. In this slow, simmering war of pride and power, what becomes of fire and frost... When neither wants to melt first?
A Mage's Wrath
Two hundred years of peace have passed in Zertima, a land filled with magic, creatures, and mages. However, after those two hundred years comes an era of fear, fighting, and death. The Venom's Curse, known as the world's greatest danger, has climbed up to reach a level of great power, with the help of his fierce hunger for battle and commanding, that is strong enough to possibly secure his rule of the entire mage world. In order to save Zertima from potential collapse and eternal perishing, four young mages are found, called the Elemental Mages. The Mages - Water, Earth, Fire, and Air - are taken to a sheltered location named the Mage Sanctuary to train together and prepare for their eventual battle with the Venom's Curse and to rid of the trepidation he has cast across all of Zertima. However, not all of the Mages are willing to commit their life to train with the others and help save the mage world. Ignacia, the Elemental Mage of Fire, is the newest and last mage to be Founded and come to the others. Along with easily getting into arguments with Water Mage Salil, she is in an internal battle with herself trying to decide what choice she should really choose to carry through with. *Book originally inspired by "The Burning Sky" by Sherry Thomas.
