In a war-ravaged realm where kingdoms fall to the steel of conquering armies, one man fights not with a blade but with a fortress on his arm - a shield taller than himself, forged from the heart of a fallen star. Known as The Bastion, his name is whispered in awe and fear. His shield is his sword, his hammer, and his wall.
When a dark force begins swallowing cities overnight, he is hunted for a relic said to be hidden within his shield - an ancient core that could either save the world or doom it entirely. Pursued by assassins, mages, and old allies turned enemies, he must travel to the ruins of the First Forge to uncover the shield's true power before the war reaches its final hour.

Risen: Niekro's War
Odashen. Kamdemahn. Giant's Bane. Oldest One. On the worlds of the Avatar Alliance I am called many names and I am considered many things. Some see me as a holy warrior with a purpose so powerful, not even Death can stop me. Others think me a tormented wanderer, driven mad by a horrible fate and left to travel the wastes for eternity. Yet others see me as a soulless creature of otherworldly vengeance, returning from the grave to wreak havoc on my enemies. From my point of view, I am ALL of these things. Yet, I am none of them. My name is Max Niekro and I am Risen. I have been summoned back from the grave for one purpose and one purpose alone. I'm here to kill Velkin. Join the Risen juggernaut in this sequel to Risen: Darklight and the third book in the Risen saga as he continues his quest to defend Earth and the living of the galaxy by taking his war to the stars, where he will face even greater challenges to his effort to rid the universe of the rapacious Velkin, a giant alien race bent on consuming every living sentient being they find before sucking out their home world's life force.Complete![God Of Velmoryn ( Book 1 Complete ) [ LitRPG, Progression, High Fantasy ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/396888214-256-k22469.jpg)
God Of Velmoryn ( Book 1 Complete ) [ LitRPG, Progression, High Fantasy ]
(Book 1 is complete) "I Became the God of Velmoryn" If you were given the power of a god, what would you do? I didn't get the luxury of choosing. One moment, I was a nobody, just a freelance web developer with a failed law degree and a cat who barely tolerated me. Next, I woke up floating in the void, staring at a glowing blue screen that told me I was now a god. A weak, insignificant one, sure, but a god nonetheless. No instructions. No divine wisdom. Just me, a barren status window, and an empty faith with no followers. The first thing I did? I destroyed the last statue of the god who came before me. If I was going to be a god, I needed worshippers and what better way to start than with a little divine intervention? Now, I have a broken and lost tribe looking for answers, a system I don't understand, and a world that won't take kindly to a new deity on the rise. But if the gods of this world think I'm just another nobody, they're in for a surprise. I don't plan on being insignificant forever. What to expect: - 2,000+ Words per Chapter - Selfish, Calculative MC - 1st Person POV - Not a Very Slow Progression - Gods & Intricate Power System - Unique mix of RTS & RPG - Unique Worldbuilding with Various Races & Monsters - Adventure Elements like Dungeons & Exploration - Side Characters with Real Motives - No Harem - Images to Enhance the Reading Experience Release Schedule: - Monday, Wednesday, Friday

U.S.S.A. Umbra
In the distant future of the 28th century, mankind survived near extinction and made it into the wider galaxy, with almost no other sapient life in the milky way to stop humanity's expansion. Space was ripe for the pickings. Now mankind and the enigmatic Voidrians formed the U.S.S.A. (the United Solar Systems Alliance). Before mankind became the dominant force in the Milky Way, Earth was in shambles --- natural resources were nearly depleted, disease was rampant and most of Earth's population was in poverty. Then by some miracle of discovery or a cruel cosmic joke, in the early 23rd century, when all humanity could do was go out into space to search for a new home, a small planet that was black as the void around it was discovered. The humans who landed on the little planet had nearly lost all hope until they stumbled upon unknown ancient ruins beneath the planet's surface where they discovered untold amounts of bizarre advanced technology. Earth and humanity were saved. The little planet that was to thank for their salvation was named Umbra. Corporal Damien Kurosawa, a marine for the U.S.S.A., and his girlfriend, Alice, are hired to work aboard the famous transport ship that saved humanity, the U.S.S.A Umbra. But over the coming days, strange phenomena unleash out into mind-bending chaos that will push and break everyone's mental and physical limits, the likes of which no human has ever experienced or...survived.Complete
