In the land of Farain,  cities float hundreds of feet above the ground and ships sail the winds high in the sky with the aid of powerful crystals. At first glance, Farain is a country of peace and prosperity. Behind the scenes, its lowliest citizens toil to mine the crystals that keep the country running, and discontent is spreading among the people like a sickness.

They will soon be plunged into a dangerous world of pirates and rebels, a world that they never even knew existed. When they are found by an explorer on a mission from the King itself, they begin to realize that everything is more connected then they thought, and that terrible things are in motion. 
     
And suddenly, everyone is a little too interested in Hayden.All Rights Reserved

Forgotten by crystalbooks24

//He had my hands pinned tightly above my head as I squirmed beneath him. The blade twisting between his fingers. He held it up to my throat. I was afraid but refused to show it. "Hurt me."

One of a man and woman who met one night and not only changed the lives of themselves, but the lives of a whole world of people. One was fire and one was water. They were perfectly balanced. Until one night when the sun fell just below the tip of the tallest castle, the balance faltered, and all hell broke loose. Fire on fire.

The Enigma Protocol: No Brother of Mine (Book 1) by InkVail

Two estranged brothers. One ancient secret. And nowhere to run, not from Enigma, and not from each other. But history won't hand you the truth. You'll have to piece it together yourself. Ask questions. The story might answer back. *** Teorin is close to uncovering the truth behind his father's disappearance, until a stolen drive puts him in the crosshairs of the one person he can't outrun: the brother who left him behind. Marcus walked away to protect his family. Now an old ally drags him back into his brother's orbit, forcing a choice: expose the truth, seek revenge, or protect the brother he thought he'd already lost. In a world scarred by solar storms, power isn't just political, it's biological. People are born with affinities-heat, memory, pressure, time-and someone in the shadows is erasing anyone who digs too deep. 📖 Told through prose, in world documents, and comment threads (yes, the actual comments). Each voice carries its own style, from clipped restraint to dramatic flair. The Enigma Protocol isn't just a story; it's a reconstruction. You'll have to decide where the truth lies. A slow-burn science-fantasy epic for fans of The Expanse, Mistborn, and Annihilation-where found family and fractured loyalties collide with ancient mysteries. 💬 Take part if you want. Ask. Dig. Connect the dots. The story gives as much as you do. ⚠️ Warning: Characters may break containment (yes, they might reply to you). Meet your host on the "Welcome Page"-an optional in-universe introduction. Also available on Royal Road.

A Mermaid's Cry by Talespinner56

🔥Releasing on Amazon Spring 2026 🖤 "You will remember me," I utter, wrapping my hand tighter around the candle. "You will remember the woman who burned your world to ash. For I am a reckoning. I am vengeance. I am your demise. And no one, no man nor army shall stand in my way. Unless they also wish to burn." 🔥 🌺Corintha is an iron hearted young Mer living on Isla de las Madres, home to one of the great Mer pods of the Southern Seas. At seventeen summers, Corintha is now full grown in the eyes of her elders. Old enough to find a mate during the yearly mating season, when the young males return from exploring the world of man, far different than the calm tranquility of their island home. A land that haunts Corintha with the memories of loss, pain, and the fear that her future will be made for her. But her destiny will not be one where tradition will bind her and keep her bound to the island. Fate will pull her into the arms of Ares, the son of the pod's chief and a male that will have Corintha questioning her innermost desires. However, he will not win her heart without a fight and surviving the endless dangers that lie ahead for him, Corintha, and their motley crew of chaotic companions. The hands of fate will lead the young Mer on a journey they never thought possible. Faced with rival Mer from the North, pirates that hold deadly knowledge, and navigating the world of man without revealing their inhuman nature. These trials will test them, break them, and bring about a new story, a new legend for the travelers of land and sea. A villain with a thirst for blood. A creature of nightmarish myth. A monster to be feared. A title that Corintha will learn to bare with pride. 🦚 Trigger warning ⚠️- this book contains scenes of gore, violence, abuse, assault, and sexual situations.

The Wellspring's Curse by SeanDion

The mountains, grass, and water-that is all there is in the vast world... except at the Wellsprings. Mankind clings to life around these miraculous, shifting sites-places where stone and precious metals erupt from the earth, where beasts and blessings pour forth in equal measure. Beneath them lie dungeons and mines, twisted labyrinths crawling with monsters and ancient relics. But when the Wellsprings recede, they leave behind the Blight, and all their gifts begin to rot. Magic turns sour. Beauty becomes horror. And still, mankind endures-bound to the lands of Lyvaris, kept alive by the Wellsprings... and imprisoned by them. Auren is a hunter with no tribe, no loyalty, and a reputation for failure. When he accepts a contract to retrieve the mythical Heartscale-a relic no one has ever claimed-he finds himself entangled in a struggle older than the cities themselves. The Heartscale is not a cure. It's a key. It unlocks the truth behind the Wellsprings, and the Church will kill to keep it buried. Armed with a soul-bound knife and haunted by the corpse he left behind, Auren must decide whether to flee the coming storm... or break the chains that hold his world together
