For a human race on the cusp of extinction, breeders are the most prized men in the world. One in three thousand are born to the wealth, privilege and status of the position. A life in the lap of luxury, the chance to be anything and do whatever one wants, and all that’s required is to do one’s civic duty and aid in repopulating humanity. Of course, if you’re Rohan Mathews, that’s not going to be easy.

As a student of the tower where breeder males are taught, kept and tended to, his greatest concerns are passing his classes, avoiding trouble with security, and of course keeping his secret relationship with best friend Kaden completely secret. After all, what use is a breeder who won’t breed?

That ceases to matter when Rohan finds his mother wounded and on the run from security. When he’s handed a small flash drive and told to escape, keeping secrets and passing classes are the least of his troubles. All the while, the Overseer of the tower will stop at nothing to recover Rohan and his mother’s data. Against the Overseer and all her power, all Rohan has is his mind, his silver-tongued friend, and the warnings of his traitorous mother:

Get out.

Trust no one.

RUN.


This is a teaser for Y, the first novel from Shane Jason Taylor. It will be available soon in ebook form alongside Maternal Instinct, a novella set just before it, to be made available free here on Wattpad.

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier
30 parts Complete
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.
Dance in Shadow and Whisper (Marionettes of Myth #1) by SarahandVictoria
27 parts Complete
Kali has always been obedient, but when she takes her first step onto a protected “humans only” high school in suburban Pittsburgh, she knows she was the wrong choice for this mission. Ever since the murder of her parents when she was too young to remember, she’s been sheltered – and trained. She can swing a sword with expert precision, but studying popular human teen magazines hasn’t taught her how to masquerade as seventeen years old. Jason is the target of the mission. She and Yuuhi, who was also designated by his own people to be her partner, must find solid proof that Jason is, in fact, a supernatural phenomenon. Yuuhi sees little more than a socially inept emo kid dressed in conflicting shades of black, but Kali only touches Jason’s hand, and she feels the sting of something dark and deadly. Jason’s shadow is bigger than he is, and if the leaders of Yuuhi’s people find out, Jason won’t be human much longer. The goal of the mission is to protect him, but Kali will find that the only way she can do just that is to break every rule she’s been conditioned to follow. She’ll have to learn how to disobey. Beginning with Kali’s point of view and then shifting to the eyes of other characters, the Marionettes of Myth series introduces Pittsburgh as a superhuman metropolis, a world both wild and conquered by the monsters buried in its seams and darkest shadows. And those monsters will be watching her. ♦ Completed! ♦ [Copyright © 2013 Sarah Godfrey & Victoria DeRubeis] (All current books in the series are available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle format.

THE INDESTRUCTIBLE

40 parts Complete Mature

During the North American War, an organization is reborn. The government of Amory has officially decided to bring back the Hunters, an elitist group within the government with access to unlimited resources. They have the best fighters, the best healers, the best spies and interpreters. You name it, the Hunters have it. The only issue? It needs fresh new members. Twenty-five hundred students aged fourteen to eighteen across Amory are randomly selected to participate in a series of tests that measures different types of strength and skill. As these tests progress, the more difficult they get and the more money the candidate receives. Jaid Broomer isn't too thrilled about being chosen, but after making a promise to one of her most beloved mentor figures and finding out about a new addition to her family, she decides to go through with it and try her best. When she gets there, Jaid becomes submerged into a whole new world full of possibility and uncertainty. On top of having friendship issues, homesickness, and heartwrenching feelings for a certain boy, Jaid finds herself working to accomplish a new position. One that will provide her with a life that she never dreamed of living.
