|| Summer of 1985 || Anthony and Thomas Banks, brothers with scarce in common, must set aside their differences when a corpse is discovered in their new home; in order to not fall back into the clutches of their evil guardian. 

+++

12-year-old Anthony Banks is everything his brother is not. Short. Plain. Timid. And not a single ounce of superpowers.  However, he's elated when they move in to the home of his dreams this summer: no more bullies and fiery nuns. And no more evil Diselhock.

Well, until he finds a corpse embedded in the living room wall. Wrapped in dark, slimy ivy.

16-year-old Thomas Banks has not yet gotten over the arson that had killed his parents five years ago. Not when their guardian Keith Diselhock's been hanging it over his head like the sword of Damocles. But not anymore, at least. He's managed to secure a deal; all they have to do is not cause trouble. 

Piece of cake, right?


With the ghastly corpse in their new home, reemerging friends & foes, and a sinister ice cream truck that keeps the neighbors out of sight, will Tony and Tom live peacefully in this "pristine" neighborhood?

"Grief can blind us if you let it consume you." Steve Berkan, the smartest man alive still coming to terms with his own sexuality, and Rowan Griggs, a shy soul who believes everything people say about him. As two men on opposite sides of the same war, they must both come to terms with their love for each other as they fight off a sinister force who aims to keep the two apart. Steve Berkan's life has always been... interesting. Not only is he the son of a family that fights for control over a powerful pair of swords, he has a strange connection to an unexplained mystical being named Hope, along with a unique ability to learn anything in seconds. One day, Steve's mother sends him down to a nearby river to collect water. While at the river, he meets a kid his age named Rowan Griggs; he is the son of Robert Griggs, the rival of Steve's family. Steve immediately falls in love with Rowan, though he refuses to admit it. At the same time, Rowan has a special connection to not just Hope, but also another mystical being named Fear. Rowan's father uses this knowledge to manipulate Rowan into believing Rowan is destined to be evil. DISCLAIMER: this book contains Graphic Violence, abuse, mild blood/gore, alcohol usage, cursing, dark themes, mention of suicide, and the destruction of a historical landmark. Commentary and criticism is welcome, as I intend to make this story as amazing as I possibly can. Also soon to be available on Royal Road

"You ungrateful bitch. I keep a roof over your head, and this is the thanks I get?" "You could have killed her," I retort, trying to muster up confidence that I don't possess. "What if she goes to the cops, Dad? That bruise on her face is enough to get you arrested and charged with assault." "What? You mean when she tripped over the mess you made in the kitchen?" His smile is so wicked that it chills me to my core. "She ain't going to the cops. Hell, she'll probably be back here tomorrow." "You're a bastard," I whisper, tears filling my eyes. "No wonder Mom left! She probably couldn't bear to spend another second with-" I'm pushed to the floor. I scramble backwards as he approaches me, his cheeks scarlet with rage, his pupils the size of needle points. In fourteen years, I've never seen him this mad. I've really done it this time. -------------------- (COMPLETED) Life is hard when nowhere feels like home. For Layla Dodds, there is only one goal: survival.

How will you save an entire universe if you can't even save yourself? You can't hope to win if you're already destined to lose. . . but then again, you can't win at all unless hope is present and that's what matters most. ********** An Aeterian Story- Final Book
