Ethereal. A peaceful afterlife where the twinkling little lights that we see every night are its dead inhabitants. Run by the Council of Angels, each dead soul is given a Star of Memoria, and as long as their Stars shine, they will be remembered by their living loved ones. After a certain amount of time, the souls' Stars will be saved in Archives and they will be reincarnated.

Asteria. Our main protagonist, a tiny Star in a big world. But when the bloody war Ethereal Fall kindles from a malfunctioning machine, secrets upon secrets are revealed. How will our average dead soul deal with this major turn of events?

Haunted by JuliaCoffin

The dead typically want one of two things. Ghosts crave conversation. Spirits seek pain. My name is Bria, and I've been able to interact with the dead for as long as I can remember. Communicating with the deceased might sound like a cool gift, but let me assure you, it's not. Ghosts don't shut up, and not all specters are friendly. In fact, most of them are dangerous. Pretending the paranormal doesn't exist is far easier than talking to the shadows, so I've been avoiding the dead for years. Past experiences have led me to avoid the living too. And for a long time, I've successfully kept my distance. Until a single ghost encounter in the library ruins everything. Now a couple of my classmates know my secret. But as it turns out, they have a deadly secret of their own. Time to talk to the shadows again. _______________ This story contains profanity and violence. [ONC 2021 Shortlister]

But when old enemies start to threaten the safety of Cornacapia, it's all up to Astara and her friends to figure out how to fulfill the prophecy that might just save them all. #First place in Fantasy in the Stellar Moon Awards #Third place in Fantasy in the Moonstone Awards

Broken Wings -Volume One: You Can't Escape The Destiny- ((EDITING)) by edieduard12

Everyone believes in something, Gods, aliens, demons, ghosts... but there are some of us that believes in ANGELS. They think just that the angels just fly, protect you and that's the end of their power, or they are just white-winged, but actually there are three types of angels:white, dark and gray, and their power is beyond what we could have ever thought of. They can control their element, shadow or light, bend it and transform it into weapons, they live and fly in their own parallel dimension, where with their persuasive power they can control you, just if you are not strong enough. The fight between the light and the dark is now balanced just by one first challenge in the starting road of a just born angel, "The challenge of wings", that transforms an ordinary person with the sacred soul within into a gray angel, and from his 16th birthday until the first moon, every good or bad deed he does will change the color of his wings in darker or lighter shades of gray, and in the night with full moon the transformation will be completed. Kieron is an extraordinary boy, the best friend of everybody and Mr. Handsome, and now that he found out he is an angel, all he needs to do is pass the challenge and resist the fate in the tremendous war between light and shadow. Will he be able to do it?

Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One by RKSHobbs

Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.
