A world divided. 
When Cretian colonists first conquered Hayl in 1894, it was an island lush with opportunity. The indigenous Endars were peaceful. The verdant hills were fertile. Priceless deposits of ferricon lay just beneath the soil. It was paradise. 
But now it's 2138. The Cretian mining industry has destroyed Hayl. Acid rain consumes the earth. Paradise has perished. And the Endars want revenge. When Endar opportunist Julius Strom begins secretly enacting his Retribution Initiative, the Cretians face their demise head-on. 
All Lucas wants to do is survive. All Judith wants to do is save her family. They are ostracized, hated by everyone for crimes that aren't their own. In a world dictated by skin color and cruelty, is it possible for anyone to find peace?

Gentry's Chance by BrookeDittmar93

I'm excited for this one! As I'm watching her being laid to rest, it occurs to me that I know less about life than I do about death. She's gone, and I'm still here. If she wanted anything, she wanted me to live, but as long as I'm here, I'm not living. Life is fragile, or so I've heard. Ashes to ashes dust to dust. If I'm going to live at all starting over is a must. Some are gone, but some are still here. I need to get out of here to somewhere I can trust. I've got little too lose and much to gain. No matter what anyone thinks, I'm not to blame. So fuck it. What is the worst that could happen? I'm going to pack my bags and see what happens. It's completely worth taking my chances. ~ Anonymous ~

Callidus Rising | Complete ✔️ | Book 1 by JAChaffin

[COMPLETED] •Being revised... AGAIN (Progress: Intro-Chap. 3)• "We're going back... Understand? There are more threats out here than we anticipated, and they're all after you-" Lukas' voice erupted into static and chunks... I glared at the man in all black as the light continued to beam and blind me. Without my glasses it was actually painful. And then there was silence. My bare feet hit the metal floor of wherever we had jumped to, and I put my hand up to shield my eyes from the vicious attack of bright light. Not again." Alexi Callidus is living in a post-apocalyptic world... In the 25th Century. The year is 2470. She's been surviving on her own for 4 years and 8 months inside the same building with her only companion without seeing the sun. 5 years after the brutal unexplained murder of her family. 7 years after the genetic disaster of "GASP". 7 years and 4 months after the War of Nations. Everything seems to be barren and empty... But if her super old sci-fi movies didn't teach her that looks deceive, nothing will. Technology, before "GASP" (Genetically Altered Soldiers Program) and the War of Nations, was insane. You could be teleported in the blink of an eye, or healed from a once fatal injury in days. With the majority of the population infected with a viral genetic plague, almost any of the survivors could access this technology... Including Alexi. When a simple quest for survival turns into a journey of a lifetime, will Alexi be able to survive the weight of the gruesome truth when she finally uncovers it? Will our heroine be able to fade into the background and live a quiet life of cunning? Or burst into flames in a sudden blaze of tragedy? -Callidus Rising- •This book's sequel is in progress (Curing Revolution) Highest Ranks: •#1 "secretsocieties" •#1 "armageddon" •#2 "famine" •#2 "plague" •#3 "explorer" •#4 "genetic-engineering" •#5 "artificial intelligence" Com

Vengeance Of The Lost.. by my_curious_mind

|| Highest ranking yet #7 in action || || Editing on hold || There is a thin line difference between Revenge and Vengeance "Revenge" is more spiteful, more punitive, injurious. "Vengeance" is more retribution for the sake of restoring justice.' Alex Moore is an 18-year-old girl who was living a pretty awesome life, but her life chose to take a turn, a pretty sharp turn towards something she never thought of.Her life forced her to ask herself these questions- 'Questions of her existence' She became completely opposite of what she was and even worse when she was betrayed by the one whom she had put her trust in. -------------------------------------------------------- Join in Alex to experience an adventurous, action, drama, love,thrill-filled journey and find out the answers to all the questions along with her. Earlier the genre was Teen Fiction, but I realized it did not fit, so I shifted it to the action genre. When it was in teen fiction it was ranked #154 as if on 25-05-2017. E-Awards Winner 2017 in Action genre! A big thanks to @leaving_forever for the amazing cover!!!

First to Rise (Excerpt) by Bioshockgrl

The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier

Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.

Shadow forged: A Weapons Reckoning by MirandaNyalela

"The streets ran crimson that night, a morbid familiarity in our world of shadows. Though just a child, I was already acquainted with the stench of blood and betrayal. My mother's demise had unleashed a maelstrom of pain and suffering, a demino effect that left me as the forgotten pawn, the one that no one dared to claim. Yet, I remembered everything: every face, every name, every wound. The memories seared into my mind like a branding iron, fueling my unyielding resolve. I would make them pay, no matter the cost. In the depths of darkness I found my saviour, my tormentor. Xandros, the man who pulled me from the abyss, who bestowed upon me a name, a purpose. His guidance was my solace, his approval my sustenace. But I knew the truth- I was a weapon, forged in the fire of my own suffering, destined to unleash havoc upon the world."
