The world's richest venture capitalist Fiona McCallister learned the hard way that money can't buy you everything. Grieving from the loss of her daughter who died in the 2018 London Smog Event, she decides to run a competition to try to find a new, revolutionary and renewable way of generating electricity.  The prize-a life changing billion dollar contract to produce the design.
Struggling to balance life as both a leading renewable energy scientist and as a single father, Joe Grayson is currently working on the next generation of wind turbines.  Frustrated in his current role, by needless bureaucracy and government funding cutbacks, Joe takes up McCallister's challenge and learns that some people in clean energy can play dirty, and that the best ideas can sometimes come from the most unusual places.

The Fall of Man by ed_green
58 parts Complete
So much for an easy way to go. After thirty nine long years, each squandered day chained inexorably and uneventfully to the next, this is how it ends. How appropriate. Blinking back tears, Joanna shakes out another handful of pills into the palm of her hand... Environmental catastrophe, dismissed by many as myth or propaganda, is now an impending reality. Tides are rising and storms are brewing. Meanwhile, in a small-town suburban home, a small family is fraying at the seams, and on the brink of a collapse of their own. Following the suicide of his wife and imprisoned by grief, Arnold witnesses the inexorable downwards spiral of his neighbourhood on television, from the confines of his living room. Fifty years on, his son Noah is thrust into a dense, compact Britain he hardly recognizes, adrift in a society in the throes of transformation. Years later, the experiment falters and Nature threatens to take over entirely. Noah’s daughter Eve faces unimaginable consequences and her will to survive is tested to its limits... THE FALL OF MAN begins in the Britain of today. Three successive generations struggle to exist in a future rife with change. Their story chronicles a series of cataclysmic, global events, from the perspective of an all-too-human family. Two new chapters to be added each week...

The Arcane Paradox by AdventureMagicReader
14 parts Complete
In the shadowed alleys of a hidden London, where ancient magic collides with the relentless surge of advanced technology, an age-old prophecy threatens to unravel the delicate balance of two intertwined worlds. Arin Valeria, a 150-year-old alchemist with a fraying mind despite his mastery of ancient magic, stands on the precipice of this impending conflict. His daughter, Lila Valeria, embodies the bridge between eras, merging the arcane and the modern with her innovative spirit. The Valeria family's tranquil existence shatters when Maxwell Reed, a powerful tech mogul and dabbler in dark magic, launches a ruthless campaign to dominate both realms. As Maxwell's technologically enhanced abominations spread terror, Arin and Lila must unite their unique knowledge and strengths. Their ancient family golem, imbued with the wisdom of centuries, becomes their steadfast ally in this desperate battle for survival. From the creation of sentient golems to the emergence of charmed batteries, the Valerias face escalating confrontations. A catastrophic explosion merges a will-o'-the-wisp with a golem's core, birthing a new form of sentience and heralding an unprecedented war. As technology infiltrates every aspect of life and magic's influence wanes, alliances are tested, and the lines between good and evil blur. Ethan, a brilliant coder and Lila's admirer, sacrifices everything by embedding himself into Maxwell's network to dismantle it from within. His agonizing journey reveals the dark synergy between Maxwell's malevolent magic and cutting-edge technology. In a heart-wrenching finale, Ethan's ultimate act of bravery destabilizes Maxwell's grip on both worlds, but at the cost of his life and the future he longed for with Lila.

The Island by AmyJohnson895
44 parts Complete
"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing.
