Isitic is a desolate and barran land. Water is scarce, crops hard to grow, and freedom impossible to obtain.
But there is one hope - The Golden Gates, and beyond the golden barrier, The Other Lands.
Bountiful and plenty, it is every Isitican's dream to get to live in the government-funded paradise.
The only problem? You have to survive a month in The Arena.
The Arena is a mysterious death trap that the Isitican dictators over the years have put to their uses. Encased in a giant glass dome, The Arena is patroled day and night by vicious beasts, the environment changing every day.
Every ten years, eight 18-year olds are selected from a major city to go to The Arena, and see if they can survive.
If you survive - you and your family get to live with pleasure in The Other Lands.
If you fail - well, you're dead.
Join this decade's eight as they try to survive the trial that many before them have tried. But something's different this time, and it may turn out to be fatal......

The Arcana Games: Catalyst
401 souls. Eight trials. Only one will survive. For centuries, the Council hoarded magic, granting it only to their chosen few. Now it dies, and their answer is slaughter dressed as spectacle. Cast into the ruins of the Octaviary-a once-proud academy twisted into a labyrinth of death-the competitors must fight, bargain, and betray their way through trials designed to break them. But they are not the only ones playing. Each Councilor has chosen champions, and each will twist the rules to keep their pieces alive. They say the strongest will prevail. But in the shadows, every path is rigged. The road to power will be written in blood. The only question is: who's holding the pen? What to Expect: - A cast of flawed and dangerous characters, each with their own agenda - Magic that feels powerful, costly, and unpredictable - Scheming Councilors pulling strings behind the scenes - Betrayals, broken friendships, and desperate bargains - A brutal contest where survival is never guaranteed

Rituals, Regrets, and Really Dumb People
You ever have a dream? Everyone has dreams. I mean a dream like wanting to be an astronaut or president or that such. I have a dream like that; I want to take over the world and cast humanity into an eternal darkness, with me as its cruel emperor. I've worked hard to achieve this dream too. I've practiced vile magics. I've honed my alchemy. I've amassed an army of demons, mutants, and cultists. Hell, I even worship a vile god to boot. Do you have that sort of dedication to your dreams? I do. And I'm so close to realizing it fully--well, I was close. I would have achieved it if it wasn't for that priestess and her damnable curse. Now I'm not even sure I'll make it to next week without my legions uprising or some other tyrant trying to usurp me. Oh, sweet Darkness. Please, someone, anyone, help me. **Warning**: Crude language and cartoon violence. **Updated every FridayConcluída
The knights: Chronicles of the Six
A book still catching it's audience... Joining a mysterious after-school club wasn't exactly on anyone's to-do list. Especially not one that involves intergalactic travel, secret powers, and way too much violence🙄 Normal class day? Near-death sparring sessions, bringing robotic alien plants to life, and trying not to get mashed up before dinner. Every four months, the school hosts tournaments that are basically legal ways to commit violence - fun, right? Add in rivalries, betrayals, double spined - humans, and a universe-threatening psycho-god named Zenith who thinks he deserves all the power... Yeah, welcome to the Academy of Students with Extraordinary Abilities. AEA-Xylkor. And leading their "student armada"? Delia - whose mom can barely pay next month's rent. So... saving the galaxy might just be her best shot at skipping rent. Skateboarder, Rapper,Mathematician, all spices in the 6-ingredient broth. They're mostly tenth graders. They're confused. And apparently, they're the universe's last hope. A hidden force is rising, and it starts with one of them - harboring a power that could either save everything... or destroy it. Idk tho... So yeah. No pressure. Oh, and me? I just hope you enjoy it. Watch out though, because once you start reading, well... good luck stopping. 😏😂
A Castle Of Crystal
Nothing in my life had ever made sense. They told me it was normal, I'd grow into who I was supposed to be, that things would get better; here I am now, going through the motions and wondering if this was really what I was destined to do for the rest of my life. Turns out, it wasn't. Nothing in my life had ever made sense but that was because my memories were fractured, pieces of a person I used to be, one I used to know lurking in the shadows of my dreams. I was just a normal guy trying to navigate the world but saying yes to everything and falling into the same monotony just wasn't cutting it anymore. I had a steady job, a pretty girl seemed interested in me and my 22nd birthday was coming up just before Christmas to give me something to look forward to. That all changed when I remembered her. I'd never forgotten her truly, blue was the only thing I knew and that Neptunian shade was so striking it stuck with me from the night she screamed at me in the rain but it wasn't until I found all the papers, the notes and crystals that I started to remember the world she lived in. One that wasn't my own and that had so much more to offer. It sounded crazy but I knew it was real and getting there, finding her and fixing the bridge that I'd unwittingly burned was going to be hard but I was ready to be more than a desk jockey typing my life away. I wanted to see the orange skies instead of the blue and find her sitting in a field of crystals again, staring at the stars.Concluída
刺され、最強の魔術師として蘇る。平和を望む。力は混沌をゆく。
"You're gonna get stabbed one of these days, seriously." I used to just laugh off my friends' warnings. Blessed with a silver tongue, I'd toyed with countless women since I was a child, and my college days were spent cycling through dozens of them. I was that kind of womanizing scumbag, and I genuinely believed there was no way I'd ever get stabbed in a law-abiding country like Japan. ...That is, until the night an ex-girlfriend I'd carelessly tossed aside stabbed me in the back. As my consciousness faded, I remembered my grandmother's words, "Everything you do comes back to you," and I died regretting my own foolishness.
Atlantis Academy: The First Element
Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?Concluída
