A multi genre novel like nothing you’ve ever read before (think Douglas Adams, or Terry Pratchett – I’m neither). It’s fantasy, science fiction, philosophy, thriller, love story, satire and more.

There’s a strange blockage in the Time Continuum and Grandfather Time’s glass is stuck. It means the End of Time itself, and that can’t be good. The gods (a coalition government these days) don’t know what to do, and so they ask Astralia (the Dream World) for help. The Astralians aren’t much use either. They can send agents over here (it’s all our fault of course), but once they get here they can’t remember what they’re here for.

In the ‘real’ world scientist Tom meets Lucy, the girl of his dreams. They fall in love, but who are they, really? Are dreams the quantum reality that scientists say they can’t imagine? As Reality disintegrates, is there still Time to save the world? Is the answer always ‘Yes – and No’?

Naseria by aliezcia

Everything is just the beginning. You wake up in a foreign place, disoriented, with no memory of who you are. The faces around you are unfamiliar, yet there's a strange sense of recognition, as if you've seen them before in some forgotten dream. Every step you take unravels new mysteries, pieces of a life you can't remember but instinctively know is yours. What did you forget? And why does it feel like your entire past is something you'd rather never remember? As you dig deeper, it becomes clear that everything around you - the people, the surroundings, even the events - has been meticulously set up, as if someone wants to force you to recall those memories. But who is behind this? Why are they so desperate for you to remember? What is it in your past that holds so much weight? The more mysteries you solve, the closer you get to the truth. But with each answer comes more questions. What did you do in that forgotten past, and why is someone so determined for you to relive it? And the final question lingers in your mind: If you solve all the mysteries, will the truth set you free? Or will it trap you in a reality you wish you had never uncovered?

The Greylands: Modern Edition by SusanSkylark

A land of shadows, of mystery, of obfuscated Truth. Welcome to the Greylands, that strange world, within the bounds of Time, peopled by mortal men. We cannot see truly, only as through a glass, darkly. There are things that move and have their being completely beyond our ability to perceive them. There are things beyond our mortal ability to comprehend. There are hints and glimmers hidden within the body of revealed Truth, but there is much we do not know, cannot yet understand, and could never dare dream. These stories are mere fancy, with a seed of Truth at their core. They play with the ideas of mortality and Eternity, Time and things beyond it, and of course the epic battle of Good against Evil. Each stands alone, and though there are common themes, threads, names, and concepts, each story is an entity unto itself and should not be seen as occurring in the same world or mistaken for installments of a series. These are random musings, not Gospel Truth, and should not be taken as such. Joy, hope, and encouragement are hopefully a byproduct, but certainly not sound Theology. If you would know more of the true world beyond these Greylands, one must be a careful student of the Scriptures, not of silly stories such as these. While still fairytales, these stories are set in modern surroundings rather than the land of Faerie! Each story is unique unto itself, and doesn't reference any other story, world or character elsewhere.

Ended by DecrepitSoul

I am dying. I know this because i can feel all my senses leaving me. I can see flashes, recollections, of my past. They preen at me through my lashes. But I am calm. There is a feeling of delirium thumping in my heart, spreading through my body. With the little strength that I can muster, I reach out to take hold of the nearest objects to me. It ties me to the earth, but when my eyes no longer see light, the bond that keeps me on this world will be severed, and no longer shall i be alive. What if you and a four other people where the only ones alive on earth? After the Apocalypse, everyone died. Except for five of us. My name is Thalia, when I was thirteen years old, the earth was broken by deadly storms, methane, tsunamis, earthquakes. I survived. For years I wandered the earth, raiding abandoned shops for food, seeking shelter. Now I am fifteen, I feel like I have found a home. I have found a band of survivors like me. These people survived the Apocalypse, and now, we want answers .

Shards of Kairos by nicholasstarkdrake

'There's something beyond the mirrors...' She should probably be choosing her majors for college, considering a career, and the direction for the rest of her life. Instead - she's still working at the small town coffee shop where she got her first job. And while commuting from a bigger city to the much smaller town of Briarsfield where she grew up is a pain, Evie likes the stability. The normalcy. Because the dreams or nightmares that Evie had started having a little over a year ago now are anything but normal. Dreams of an endless void of fog. They've persisted and refused to leave her alone now for months. And Evie is haunted by the chilling feeling that she is not alone in the fog. But when the fog suddenly becomes real, weather completely uncommon for Briarsfield at this time of year, Evie wakes up to a sensation of dread. And that something is very different. And very wrong. That something has changed and she's been suddenly put at the epicenter. At the precipice of something life altering. Or world ending.

Behind the Screen by VolleyballAnimeLover

The book follows a protagonist whose mind begins to unravel as they are plagued by eerie occurrences that blur the line between reality and delusion. It begins with subtle shifts-a feeling of being watched, strange reflections, whispers at the edges of perception-but as the story unfolds, these sensations grow more intense and impossible to ignore. The protagonist starts questioning their own sanity, struggling to differentiate between what's real and what's in their head. Is someone-or something-watching them, or are they simply losing their grip on reality? As they spiral deeper into paranoia, the boundaries of their own identity begin to fracture, and they realize they may not be the only one in control of their mind. With each passing day, the tension grows, and the truth becomes harder to discern. The story keeps readers on edge, with unreliable narration and distorted imagery that makes them question everything. As the protagonist's mental state deteriorates, the lines between the observer and the observed blur, and the final revelation leaves the reader wondering if they're trapped in this madness alongside the character. A chilling psychological thriller, this book explores the nature of reality, self-awareness, and the terrifying idea that what you think you know may be nothing more than a reflection of something far darker.
