In this queer-friendly story, a 20-year-old prophet away from his Gospel home planet will embark on a mission that'll alter the course of the galaxy...

Exiled on an asteroid, Daniel has a vision. He visits the doctor to find answers, but the truth isn't so easily uncovered. As he, his family, and the people they lead face the struggle of being exiled, Daniel prepares to leave for the solar system Babylonia at the request of King Nebuchadnezzar.

He's not the only one invited to live in the Etemenanki Palace at the heart of Sagittarius Arm of the Milky Way - Daniel meets other young nobles like himself, including Azariah.

But the King doesn't request their presence out of the kindness of his heart; he has expectations. Daniel quickly finds himself overwhelmed. After another vision, Daniel is drawn deeper into the high royal court, while his friend Azariah leaves the palace to join a dangerous mission. When their paths cross again, the pair will face their true feelings, God's plan for them, and an unexpected romance blooming between them...

This spacefaring, queer-friendly retelling of the story of Daniel is sure to keep you turning pages until the very end!

In the empty, cold expanse of the Home Galaxy, life needs a cradle, a planet to spark it into existence. Given the right conditions, it can become something incredible - something self aware. And when that happens, the planet that helped it along might just take notice... Planatae are mysterious, sentient planets that are sustained by the collective consciousness of the people who inhabit it. In exchange for the chance to think and feel, these planets bestow upon their inhabitants a Factor - a particular ability that aids adaptation in a specific environment. Ricardia Yigera is on the run; more willing to carve out a life in the darkness of Onyx Station then return to the comfort of home for a terrible crime she's committed. Trapped by her guilty conscious, she's unsure of what to do - and how to make amends. Jasper Drift thought he'd finally found tranquility, hidden away in paradise - until his military past comes back to catch him - and the extremly valuable asset he's been keeping hidden for years. Lukas Adamas is the son of one of space's most prestigious scientists, a woman hell-bent on unlocking the secrets of the Planatae. Ambitious and determined, Lukas wants to follow in her footsteps. But when his mother hears a rumor, one that has the potential to change everything they understand about the Planatae, Lukas is dragged along into a web of conspiracy and responcibility he may not have been fully prepared for. Amidst clashing galactic empires and the enigmatic workings of the Planetae, these three will find themselves wrapped up in a conspiracy that none of them asked for.

Mars Argo & the Silver Wolf [original] by glennlusional
11 parts Ongoing
What remains of the human race has migrated to the planet Ceren of the Andromeda Galaxy following a nuclear war that eradicated all inhabitable places on Earth, living amongst twelve other species of aliens. Several decades into humans - adapted later into Cerens - becoming a part of their solar system, conflict arose within the thirteen planets, pitting the Titans against the rest of the galaxy in a long, violent Great War that would eventually end in the imprisonment of almost all Titans, and a new Andromedian Council to be created in order to prevent and subside future conflicts to avoid such a destructive battle from happening again. Mars Argo's father was the leading face of the Life Alliance that faced the Titans in the war, and a year after the dust had settled from the final battle, he had gone missing when she was only four years old. Fifteen years later, Mars lives with fruitless hope that her father is still alive but is unable to come back to her and her mother, who is a shell of who she once used to be with her husband presumed dead. When sneaking around the pilot school's restricted grounds, Mars finds what might be the only thing that can lead her to answers about her father: his warship, the Silver Wolf. Unbeknownst to the civilians of the Andromeda Galaxy, the Titan Army has gathered its scraps and its bearings, climbing back to its feet with revenge on the forefront, led by the tyrannical Commander Amon. Reluctant to be burdened with the responsibility of preventing a second Great War, Mars accepts the role of leading a new rendition of the Life Alliance in hopes of uniting the former members to prepare for the threat of attack by the Titans- and finding out more about her father's disappearance.

In a small, Positivist-controlled city, Gireiah Copeigh of Yun, a renowned astronomer and theoretician, witnesses a revelled and worshipped event of deep antiquity: a Vanishing. Of the twelve stars visible on the celestial sphere, eleven remain. Following the event, a strange yet deliberate phenomenon splayed across the sky--mysterious astronomical activities with perhaps principally scientific interpretations, or perhaps the chiseled, fleeting abstractions of gods... In this distant space and time, Gireiah sets out to find an old reclusive friend, an aid to help uncover the truth about the world's newly molested skies, as well as the purpose and mechanism responsible for the Vanishings themselves. The paths of others like himself cross, and in these trekkings, an awful truth of their universe is revealed. This is Exodus Nebula, a novella of about 55,000 words, or twenty-four chapters. The mannerism and syntax of the writing can be a bit... dense. You'll have to excuse me for that. This was never supposed to be a serious attempt at a completed story, yet here it is. At about halfway through, I decided I didn't like the mannerisms at all and that it would be better off as a story entirely rewritten. Instead, I kept up with it anyway and made amends nearer the end. It was a mistake now learnt. If you choose to read past, oh, chapter five, where the story begins to pick up momentum in my opinion, I hope you enjoy. I've included a lot of themes I find intriguing and attempted to make the world wholly open for the reader's interpretation--which was the intent of this project, more or less: a practice of worldbuilding. Thanks, and again, enjoy! Exodus Nebula Copyright © 2018 Brayden M. Fox All Rights Reserved Cover art by BMF

Centuries later, Alexandra, a twenty-two-year-old barista living in Boston, is taken to an unfamiliar realm of mystery and magic where her life is threatened by Reylor, its banished Lord Steward. She crosses paths with Treyan, the arrogant and seductive Crown Prince of the Empire, and together they discover how their lives, and their love, are so intricately intertwined by a Prophecy set in motion so many years ago. Alex, now the predestined Queen Empress Alexstrayna, whose arrival was foretold by the Annals of the Empire, controls the fate of her new home as war rages between the Crown Prince and Lord Steward. Either choice could tear her world apart as she attempts to keep the Empire's torrid history from repeating itself.
