Henry Dreherg is a young boy who leaves his mother's house to pursue what every young boy dreams of, an adventure.
AWAKENING - THE ADVENTURE: ACT I - THE AWAKENING BEGINS
In a fractured world of empires, awakenings, and beasts, a boy's quiet life ends the moment fate knocks on his door.
Henry Dreherg never asked to become a target. But when a stolen relic of unimaginable power falls into the hands of his friend, the shadows of Transylvania stir-and a deadly vampire baron named Adelin Dravencourt begins the hunt.
Forced to flee, Henry forms a reluctant alliance with his freshly gained friends. Together, they must survive assassins, uncover buried truths, and face monsters both human and inhuman.
But the evil Adelin is always one step ahead-and he has no intention of letting them reach the dawn.
Old legends awaken. Bonds are forged. Blood is spilled.
The first act of destiny has begun.
AWAKENING - THE ADVENTURE: ACT II - RISE OF SHADOWS
The world is no longer what it once seemed.
After the storm of Transylvanien, Henry Dreherg and his companions find themselves hunted, wounded, and changed. But as one darkness fades, a far deeper one begins to rise.
From the ruins of the Shadow Society, the elusive Schatten Syndicate emerges. Deadlier. Smarter. And they want blood-especially Emilia's.
Meanwhile, the infamous Soul Reapers-ten legendary warriors who answer to no one-begin to move from the shadows.
While training under the silent Master Kensei, Henry must unlock the secrets of his Heavenly Awakening, while Jack faces the wrath of the Stormdragon within. Friendships deepen. Secrets surface. And enemies watch from just beyond the light.
In a world where power means survival, the question remains:
Who will rise... and who will vanish in the shadows?

First Apprentice
A riveting coming of age story about an orphaned dracon shifter's struggle to control her own fate. "Black as a moonless night, might makes right," Joel whispered the old saying under his breath. His fingers clenched around my wrist before he released me and stepped away, his aura flashing with yellows and spring greens - excited and amused. Mostly excited. Definitely not afraid. "Precisely," I said. Out of the corner of my eye, I watched Grandfather's deep purple aura turn orange. Feigned disappointment. In his opinion, aura reading was a potential weakness and one he never hesitated to exploit. He only broadcast his emotions when he wanted someone to read them. I rolled my eyes. "Stop acting so disappointed, Grandfather. This is what you wanted, isn't it? Why else would he-" I nodded to Joel "-be here? Our world is beneath his notice unless you invited him." "Lured," Joel supplied helpfully. So I wasn't the only one Grandfather tricked. "Tell me, Grandfather. Did you want Director Nease dead?"Complete

Golden Dragon Tang Wulin 1
The Age of Gods has long since ended, their voices no longer heard on the continent of Douluo. Humanity, standing on the shoulders of legends from its history, advanced soul technology to inconceivable heights. The humans of Douluo invented weapons of mass destruction, mechanized armor, and living metals. With these advancements, they went on to conquer the oceans and discovered two new continents. To fuel these new technologies, humanity hunted the soul beasts to the very brink of extinction. Once the dominant force of Douluo, the few surviving soul beasts now hide in the darkest recesses of their last sanctuary. The weakest have all been hunted, leaving only the strongest to scheme in the heart of the forest. The soul beasts, not willing to fade away, plot an uprising for their survival. In the midst of this, a god from a long forgotten era awakens in the depths of the Great Star Dou Forest to seek vengeance for the soul beasts. As darkness encroaches from the abyss, hope is found in a young boy who holds a power beyond divinity within himself-Tang Wulin! Hope for both humanity and the soul beasts, as the bridge between the two. He finds his way into the fabled halls of Shrek Academy, where he learns to wield his prodigious powers, makes friends and finds allies, eventually rising to become a towering leader. As he learns to harness his strength, danger lurks within the shadows as the various factions of humanity maneuver and plot to usurp Shrek Academy. Tang Wulin discovers the threat to the only world he knows as he sinks deeper into the intrigue. Meanwhile, camouflaged by the chaos and unbeknownst to the humans, the soul beasts' plot continues to steadily advance. To defend what he loves and reclaim what was lost, Tang Wulin must seek out the legacies of legends past and unlock the full might of the Golden Dragon King!Complete

Fall From Divinity
Sixty thousand years ago, the Gods waged war upon humanity-and won. From the corpses of the fallen Titans, five empires rose, carved from divine ruin: the Empire of the Rising Sun, the Dragon Empire, the Roman Dominion, Afri Terra, and the cursed land of Erevalon. Humanity was left shattered, bound by divine fear. Yet from their ashes, a new power emerged-Aura Cultivation, the art of defying heaven itself. Now, centuries later, peace is only an illusion. When a young hero-in-training, Jin, wakes to another day of exhausting drills and impossible destiny, he never expects that his next mission will lead him into the Akamizu Woods-the very ground where gods once fell. A mission that begins as a simple hunt... will soon unravel secrets that were buried since the fall of divinity itself. Because some legends were never meant to die. And some heroes... were never meant to rise. Will the gods rise again? Will the wielder of the Seed of Destiny break the chains of fate-or be consumed by it? When divinity falls... who will rise from the ashes?
