In a world ruled by ruthless corporate oligarchs and deadly games, one woman's battle will ignite a rebellion. 'Nova's Blade' - The ultimate fight for survival begins here.


In a world under the iron grip of the United Oligarchs of Earth, five families control the world's largest industries. Every service, including justice, is privatized, creating a bleak reality for the majority of the populace. The protagonist, Nova, is forcibly drafted into a grim televised spectacle - a death match tournament amongst kidnapped women known as the Valkyries. The victor of this brutal game wins a golden ticket to liberation and a life of luxury married to a member of the world's wealthiest families.

A bomb has been implanted in Nova and the Valkyries' heads, set to detonate if anyone dares to reveal the truth about the forced participation. Despite the odds, Nova forms an unlikely alliance, navigates treacherous paths, and fights against the show's cruel host who would do anything for a ratings boost.

Off-stage, covert investigations and conspiracies unravel, plunging deep into the underworld. Meanwhile, a terrorist group, Hades Legion, plans to dismantle the prevailing corporate order, their plans intertwined with Nova's destiny.


"Nova's Blade" distinguishes itself with a complex tapestry of power, woven by five dominant families, each entangled in their own intricate schemes and stratagems. The narrative unravels through different perspectives, deepening character nuances and gripping readers in a multifaceted exploration of this dystopian world. A unique intertwining of personal vendetta and overarching themes of corporate dominance and insurrection breathes fresh life into the genre. The novel serves as a stark critique of unbridled capitalism, casting a new, pertinent light on the dystopian landscape. The familiarity of the genre is thus reimagined, introducing a captivating and relevant narrative for today's readersTous Droits Réservés

A Series of Shadows: Shadows of The Broken, écrit par sadiealainewriting

In a world, devastated by war and chaos, society teeters on the brink of extinction. Nova Lane, a young girl with extraordinary abilities, becomes the key to humanity's survival - though not by choice. The institution, led by her cold and calculating father, Joseph Lane, exploits children with special powers to carry out horrific experiments. Nova's unique gift holds the potential to cure global infertility, but the cost is for free freedom - and possibly her life. Jaxen, a guard at the institution, who is secretly in love with Nova, rustles with his complicity in the cruel regime. Together, they begin to uncover the truth behind the destruction of civilization, their captor's dark, secrets, and nova's true power. As Jaxen risks, everything to protect Nova and free the other captive children, their bond deepen, but so does the danger. Torn between duty, love, and rebellion, Nova and Jaxen must navigate, treacherous, terrain, from their hidden emotions to the powerful forces controlling the world. As explosions rock, the outside in the institution tightened scripts, the pair joint forces with unlikely allies, and the desperate fight to escape the whore and reclaim their future. But Nova's father has plans of his own, and she soon realizes that not only is her mother alive, but her own blood may be the key to controlling - or destroying - what's left of the world. And shadows of the broken, love and survival intertwine, but when betrayal runs deep, can they truly escape the shadows that find them?

The wardens: blood oath 🌑 , écrit par darniij

Nova Nyor-Bell was eight years old when a car crash stole both her parents, leaving her alone in the world with nothing but a silver necklace - the only piece of her mother she could hold onto. By nine, she was pulled into the shadows of The Wardens, a secretive organization that trains children to protect a world that doesn't even know they exist. Disciplined, silent, and deadly, Nova quickly becomes one of the most skilled in her generation, mastering survival, observation, and decision-making under pressure. Now sixteen, she moves through life like a shadow - sharp, focused, untouchable. She trusts no one, lets no one close... except for Kai Rivera, her seventeen-year-old best friend and partner in the Wardens' dangerous world. With his warm smile, light brown hair, and teasing confidence, he's impossible to ignore. He sees the parts of her she hides, the cracks she keeps carefully covered, and slowly, over the weeks and months, he becomes her anchor in a world that demands perfection and obedience. But attachments are forbidden. Love is weakness. And the Wardens have rules. When Nova uncovers secrets about her parents' past - about the lives they led, the missions they undertook, and the truth behind their deaths - she begins to realize her life was never truly her own. Torn between loyalty to the Wardens and the growing feelings she cannot deny, she must decide: obey the order that raised her, or follow her heart into a dangerous, uncertain future. Trained to survive, prepared to fight, but unprepared to love... Nova Nyor-Bell is about to learn that some rules are meant to be broken, and some bonds are impossible to resist.

Prototype Dorian, écrit par AziaElga

Eighteen-year-old cadet Lara Lorensky has one goal: to win the Selection, the only way people on Earth can ascend to NovaTopia, a utopia-like space shuttle orbiting the planet. Unfortunately, her longtime rival, Morgan Sánchez, also has the same goal--and their almost undefeated record in practices is Lara's biggest obstacle to victory. When an unexpected terrorist attack destroys Morgan's cyber arm, Lara's chances to win are significantly increased. But... what is the point of winning if her rival is not in their top condition? Plagued by guilt and a feeling she does not quite understand yet, Lara decides to help Morgan find a cyberlimb mechanic. As she ventures outside her sheltered bubble, Lara realizes that everything she was taught was a lie, including her identity. Perhaps the utopia she was fighting for all her life was also an illusion. Together, Lara and Morgan have a new goal: to find out the truth of Lara's identity--and the truth behind NovaTopia. {Part I COMPLETED!

The Professor's Girl, écrit par AmourMio22

Nova Quinn doesn't kneel for anyone. At eighteen, she's inherited grief, money, and a one-way ticket to Hellridge College-a place known for its elite programs, brutal professors, and whispered warnings. She arrives in black leather, messy bun, and sacred rage. She doesn't want friends. She doesn't want love. She wants silence. But the Vale Brothers don't leave things silent. Lucien, Ronan, and Kai are professors with reputations carved in fear. Sadists in suits. They speak to no one. Look at no one. Until Nova blasts music in their lecture hall and refuses to shrink. She's chaos wrapped in ink and pain. They're control wrapped in dominance and ritual. And when she's hurt, they don't ask questions. They act. What begins as protection turns into obsession. What starts as punishment becomes sacred. Nova doesn't submit easily-but when she does, it's not just to one man. It's to all three. The Professors' Girl is a dark, emotionally charged BDSM standalone about grief, power, and the kind of love that doesn't ask-it takes. Three sadist professors. One leather-clad rebel. This isn't a romance. It's a reckoning.

Different stars, same sky, écrit par brumfielddominique

Nova was born to be a weapon. Trained as an elite soldier, Nova once led a team that never came back. After a mission gone devastatingly wrong and a rampage that made even the Guardians fear her, her memories were erased. Now, she's seventeen again-at least on paper-living with distant relatives in a city that doesn't feel like home, attending a militarized academy built on the ruins of her childhood. She remembers her name. She remembers nothing else. Rebellious, haunted, and lost in the blur of a life she doesn't recognize, Nova starts seeing things-echoes of the friends she lost, pieces of her old self. The Elite Guardians are watching her, some suspecting she's faking it. Among them is Kade-cold, unreadable, and strangely familiar. And there are others: students, soldiers, ghosts, and enemies who seem to know more about her than she does herself. As Nova begins to unlock terrifying truths about her past, her powers return-and so do the questions: Who was she before they erased her? Why did her team really die? And what is she truly capable of now? In a world where secrets kill and memories lie, Nova must choose between the girl she was, the weapon they made her, and the future she wants. A story of broken memories, forbidden power, and a love that might cost everything.

The Debt Collectors War, écrit par TessMackenzie

Ellie is a soldier in a world without governments. A generation ago, a series of financial crises caused most of the world’s governments to collapse, and left many of the people in those countries in terrible personal debt. Since then, the worst debtor nations have been under military occupation by the troops of the debt recovery corporations, and the worst debtor of all is Měi-guó, the old United States. Ellie is serving in the Afghan Police Action when she receives bad news from home. She is told the daughter she hasn’t seen in years is dead. She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour. Ellie’s daughter will be returned unharmed if Ellie does as they wish. The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days. The company wants Ellie to go and find the kid, and Ellie doesn't know if she can. The one rule she's stuck to all her working life is to never to go to America, but now she might have to. She will have to, if she wants to save the daughter she hasn't seen in years. This is fairly dark and gritty near-future dystopian SF. ----- Debt Collectors War is now on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QZG1RHI/ Also on iTunes and B&N and other places. Just if that's easier to read that way! But please don't feel obliged or anything, and thank you for looking -----

Gaslight Trials | The Wattys2023 Shortlister ✔️, écrit par EvelynHail

| 𝟳𝘅 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗗 ·|| HUNGER GAMES x CINDER || ONC 2023 Honorable Mention Amidst the escalating unrest between the windborne utopian city of Lighthaven and its seedy, oppressed underbelly Fumedge, the Grand Duke of Lighthaven, Lucius Sextus, comes up with an ingenious solution. To provide much-wanted respite from the brewing conflict, and achieve the apparent-if-temporary unity, he organizes Gaslight Trials - a highly entertaining panem-et-circenses combat event in the Pits. The combatants may use all steam and thaumaturgy powered augmentations at their disposal, and there is only one rule: defeat, or be defeated. The reward for the last one standing? A chance to start their life anew. A brass key to the city of Lighthaven with a luxurious mansion to call their own within, as well as an aeroship to command. When eighteen-year-old Veda Igglesden steps forward to take her timeworn adoptive father's place in the fight, she might as well be signing her death-sentence. With her eyes fully set on the prize, act-first-think-later Veda must harness the power of technology to try and win for her Papa Otto. Decades of breathing in the toxic air of Fumedge did a number on the old inventor's lungs, and being able to live in the air-filtered Lighthaven would sure come in handy right about now. A high-flying adventure full of gadgetry and intrigue; a pleasing blend of steampunk and postapocalyptic. See Veda unravel the mysterious ploy behind the game's organization, and uncover the truth about her secret origins. Can she cope both with the trials of physical and intellectual prowess, as well as with the trials of life itself: those of love, loss and regret? © 2023 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompt 49! Which is (I shan't leave ye hanging :P): "Master the rules of the game until you can play it better than they can." Michael Scott, "The Sorceress" Get ready for steampunkish tinkering,

The Sapphire Shadow, écrit par James_Wake

"James Wake excels at writing action sequences. The book was jam-packed with nail biting moments. I felt like I was right beside Nadia as she fought, made quick decisions, and raced towards narrow escapes. The book is dark but realistic...Although this is not my typical genre, I'm glad I picked up this book. Nadia in particular is a wonderful character who brings panache to a gritty tale. " - Miranda Lynn, The Lesbian Review Nadia loves jewels. Big ones, small ones, red ones, blue ones. But her favorite variety is the illegally acquired. She has more than enough money to buy the best. That's never been the point. Shoplifting is her hobby, her escape. When her high school friend, Tess, offers to help her break into real burglary, how could she refuse? Tess is a technical genius - she designed and built her own right arm. Surely she can take down any security standing in their way to bigger and better loot. Outside the city walls, Jackson was raised in the slums. Life as a refugee was never easy, and the only way out was joining the army. Now she's a cop, finally living inside the old sea walls. She's supposed to be hunting Cheshire, a reclusive hacktivist stirring up unrest, but the nightly news is full of a smug young woman breaking the law and getting away with it, blowing kisses as she escapes police and private security. Theatrical, daring heists, thrilling to watch. And Jackson hates every minute of it. Meanwhile, the city they both call home is slowly tearing itself apart around them. Jackson crushes riot after riot, just part of the job. But more and more it feels wrong, hopeless, no point to any of it, no future for any of them. Nadia has given up on the future. But more and more people see her escapades and realize they can fight back. It doesn't make sense to Nadia, not at first, but an unlikely romance starts to show her that there could be some hope, even in a broken world.

Her most lethal weapon is herself . . . • • • Agent Eleven was always a loyal Agent for the Division. Until she wasn't.

Because little do the team know, they weren't the masterminds behind her return.
