A world ravaged by war; humanity on the brink.
A stranger comes from another time.
Is he the saviour mankind has been waiting for... or something far darker?

When an accident with an experimental Time Machine plunges David Tweed into another dimension, at first he thinks he got lucky. He's alive, and the world in which he finds himself seems remarkably familiar.
Soon, however, he begins to realise how strange this world really is, how tangible is the evil that crawls across the shattered landscape.
But strangest of all, everyone he meets seems to have been expecting him. How do they know who he is, and just what have they been waiting for him to do?

Alan Porter weaves a deceptively simple story of one man's courage in the face of overwhelming odds. Yet Firestorm is also a fiendishly complex puzzle, where time twists in on itself and nothing is ever quite what it seems.

Passage to Kraälst Ta'ark by EryxAias

Benjamin Mills turns thirteen with the arrival of the Fall Equinox, but he doesn't want to grow up and this means he's one year closer to adulthood. At home, he feels alone and abandoned by the adults that were supposed to be there for him. When the clock strikes midnight, a strange door appears in his basement. Before he could decide whether to open it or leave it alone, it instantly transports him to the alien planet of Kraälst Ta'ark. The aliens that inhabit the planet kill and eat every creature that crosses a door. This makes Benjamin quickly realize that his worries were trivial when compared to being trapped on a world where he's considered food. Only another prisoner can help him escape, but should he really trust her? Can he learn to be courageous enough to face all the dangers and allow the extraterrestrial stranger to help him? ___________________________________________ "It's not the destination, it's the journey." ___________________________________________ YA Science Fantasy novella. ***Novella made from the short prompt Stranded on the Other Side finalist.*** Reviewed by @MajesticIncAwards and reviewer @amaranthinepoetry

The Midnight Curcuit by diagenatuna

Nova never intended to be a hero. In fact, she barely considers herself a survivor. Haunted by a fractured past and the mysterious disappearance of her family, she's spent her life on the move, relying on her wits and instincts to stay one step ahead of those who would see her caged-or worse. But her quiet existence shatters the moment she stumbles upon the Fragment, an ancient artifact humming with forbidden power. Together, they uncover a prophecy older than time itself: a Codex that could rewrite the very fabric of their world. Pursued by relentless Enforcers and shadowy forces who will stop at nothing to claim the artifact, Nova and Cyn must forge uneasy alliances. From rogue fae warriors to vampires with shifting loyalties, their journey will take them deep into the Undercity and beyond, where danger and betrayal lurk around every corner. The line between allies and enemies blurs, and the weight of destiny presses heavily on their shoulders. In a world where power is the only currency, Nova and Cyn must decide how much they're willing to sacrifice to save a world that may already be lost.

Silent Eden by BrandyKFeltmate

Born into slavery as nothing better than a Subhuman, unable to speak, unable to read or write and unallowed to learn such things, she works hard for her master, the Divine Magician. Then one day, as she's trying to continue her hard work, Silent Eden makes a discovery that could change the way she views the entire world. Zanthius has lived on his own since the death of his mother. As an Islander, he knows that the land he lives on is sacred, and that no Mainlanders are to step foot on the island. So when he finds the strange girl in the ruins of the Island, he doesn't know what to do. She doesn't speak the language--She doesn't speak at all! To find out where she comes from and to send her back are Zanthius' duties to his people. But is it worth it?

Gears & Smoke by VeraLocke

The war was never theirs to fight-only to survive. When Solmara falls to rebellion and ruin, Evie Carter and Leo Donovan are left with one goal: escape. She's an engineer with secrets. He's a drifter with nowhere to call home. Neither are warriors, but in a world collapsing around them, survival means risking everything. Their only hope lies in Vassir's Gate, a distant safe haven whispered about in dying cities and fractured transmissions. But the road is treacherous. The enemy isn't just an invading army-it's the lawless chaos left in its wake. From burning airships to frozen wastelands, every step brings new dangers, new betrayals, and enemies determined to ensure they never make it out alive. Through it all, Evie and Leo fight side by side-mismatched, stubborn, and unwilling to let the other fall. But trust is fragile, and love is dangerous when every mistake could mean death. As battles rage and desperation sets in, one question remains: will they reach safety together, or will the war break them before they ever see peace? A steampunk sci-fi fantasy filled with adventure, peril, and slow-burning romance, Smoke & Gears is a story of survival, love, and the unbreakable bond between two souls in a world that refuses to let them go. (This book is still currently being worked on and adjusted. Feel free to offer advice as I am new to all of this!)
