As one of Her Majesty's Fire-keepers, the soal (solar coal) Viridian LeVoy collects provides energy and safety to thousands, and a paycheck that gives her the first real freedom she's ever had. But soal is growing scarce, and with it Viridian's own hope for a future she gave up everything for. 
        
  Riding the chaos of a looming energy crises, the Guild, the most infamous burgling syndicate in the empire, have resurfaced. Like all Fire-keepers, Viridian is in the way of their underground energy market. Targeted and without backup, she's chased into the unknown Far-Flung Territory, her own energy reserves near empty, and not only her job but everything she's come to love at risk. But don't worry, blokes: things can, indeed, get worse. 
  
  Among the massive forests and faultline-vapours of the Far-Flung Territory, Viridian stumbles upon two world-shattering discoveries: the true nature of not only soal, but the empire it fuels. Suddenly, all her loyalties - to her past, her country, and those she loves - are called into question. Problem is, neither the Guild or the Empire want her making up her mind. They've plans of their own. Perhaps even with each other. 
        
        ~~~
        
        Inspired by the land Down Under, the aviatrix of the 40s, and the leaps in space exploration taking place today, THE FIRE-KEEPER combines retro-futuristic rocketship dogfights, deadly megafauna, a dash of wild-west adventure, and a good dosing of snark. Action-packed and emotional, it will appeal to fans of action/adventure and speculative fiction such as FIREFLY, AGENT CARTER, and WYNONNA EARP.

Starpiercer: Sunlight's Edge by Neptondoodle

Nobody said Rock Hauling would be easy. Throughout settled space, terraforming is the fuel that drives the interstellar economy. For some worlds, this is easy. For others, lacking resources, or on the periphery, this is an unattainable dream. Through the eyes of workers, astronauts and intellectuals, Sunlight's Edge follows an attempt to revitalize the crumbled terraforming project of the barren, poverty-stricken and resource-poor planet of Tylo. To carry this out, the beggared planetary government has commissioned the crew of the aging, if powerful asteroid-cracker Caroline Rowland to make the three-month journey to a distant asteroid belt and tug a selected asteroid back into orbit for conversion into a space station. This is difficult enough by itself, but located in a strategic demilitarized zone between two rival interstellar hegemons, Tylo and it's project may be the flashpoint for a conflict of apocalyptic proportions, with the Caroline Rowland and her crew as the spark that lights the tinder. This is the debut novella for the world of Starpiercer, a planned series of novels set in the 200-world region of Solace with accompanying illustrations, sketches, maps, technical details and more. Read along to meet alien species, experience real and speculative technologies, and follow a sprawling interconnected narrative over multiple novels and multiple series, with fully realized histories, culture groups, physics, biology, anthropology and thousands of pages of worldbuilding. This story has been fully written, and more sections will be published daily, hourly, or in other chunks.

Superpowers by _mxlkywxy_

"Levi, you are part of our family. You're practically my brother!" "I told you to stop saying that Alison!" "Stop saying wha-" Suddenly his lips crash to mine in a unity of passion. I'm in shock. Paralyzed by this new revelation. It was nothing like before, it wasn't gentil, tender or even sweet. It was desperate. Reviving. Intense. We were like north and south. Night and day. Love and hate. And yet that thought only made us feel more alive. ---------- We've all felt that moment in our lives when we feel like we want to die. That simple action to end all the pain and suffering. Because this pain we're feeling is so consuming it drives us to the edge of insanity. It's not fun, is it. Allie Carter lives a normal life, with normal friends and goes to a normal school. The most exciting part of her week is when a new episode of Planet Earth is aired at 8pm on a Tuesday night. Nothing really happens in her boring life. Nothing good. Nothing bad. But when her brother's best friend - Levi Hayes - attempts to commit suicide, her entire life flips upside down putting everything in a new perspective. She plays the hero... ...but what if the hero needs to be saved from herself?

Among the Cosmos by MapleLeaf_Reads

"Still. If it's for you. I will." "I can't lose you again," Rhian said. "You aren't. I'll see you again," I said. "Yet, another thing you don't understand. He's a cosmos breaker...and with Rhydian captured he's an exile." "You don't understand Rhian. You protected me once. Let me do the same." ...................................................................................................................................................................... Rhealiana is kicked out of the Palara Knights and given 20,000 credits as severance. She knew this was a long time coming and her hellish mission on Alco along with the news of her sister's disappearance seem like the last two nails in her coffin. However, the parting words of her previous master spur her to create a hapazardous plan. Reunite with her military deserting sister on Hailara. Instead, her poorly cobbled plan causes her to cross paths with the mysterious and deadly Cielo Farrenway who, is not only looking for her sister but, claims that her sister owes him a debt of sorts and takes her hostage in the process. However, that is the least of her problems. Danger lurks in the galaxy and sometimes monsters have the best disguises.

Wings of Fire: Dawn of The Stars by MoonMeowBN

UNVEILING SECRETS IS A RISKY CHOICE. The limits of Reef Beach aren't strong enough to stop Sapphire's curiosity. She's been so curious about the whole idea of never going out into the world. Sapphire wasn't going to sit around and wait, so sneaking out must be the right idea. But even being cautious and quiet isn't enough for the dangers that lurk around to stop them from tangling Sapphire into them. When she accidentally catches herself in a lot of trouble, she needs to recover and fight back. But, then she gets into a bigger mess . . . . Staying close to the shadows in the moonlit night, she crawls her way in to find the answers. How did she end up in Reef Beach? Who are her parents - and why did they leave her there? How come Reef Beach is so limited? When her friends are in danger and she finds out about the raging war between the NightWings and SeaWings, Sapphire needs to act up. But finding the answers to all her questions isn't as simple as waving a wing. Finding new secrets, new friends, and even unveiling a prophecy. More questions come to her. Can she fulfill this prophecy? Will Sapphire succeed to stopping the war? Or will the war drag on endlessly with more dragons dying one by one . . . .

Needledrop by cocoa596

Silence, nothing by endless deafening silence. As well, darkness. Darkness that stretched for miles upon miles, nothing the human eye could see. Nothing to latch onto and feed the hunger that drives humans forward. Then, there was Needledrop. Small to begin with and created for balance of the universe, multiverse. But something changed as the universe expanded and expanded, change upon change coming and going. The rise and fall of many empires. Needledrop decided they wanted a turn, a turn to rise and succeed where the others failed. Succeed they did. Wynnona Allen is the most irritating woman you could find in the entirety of the universe in 2519. Gladiator for money, living in the slums, surviving off her own stubbornness, no one would think to imagine the raw power trapped in her. We could not have imagined our child would chose her to lead the resistance efforts against Needledrop. We were right about her in every sense of the word. We will not tell you why, we shall let you see for yourself... This book is complete and the first book of the Rules series. Tune into the next one, A sandy slope to walk, for more in this adventure. Thank you so much for reading! I'm currently working on editing this book. Book one of the Rules series.

To Be Human (Lesbian Story) by HeatherDarte

! NO LONGER WRITING THIS VERSION OF THE STORY - PLEASE GO TO MY PROFILE AND SEE MY BOOK 'The Monster's Stratagem' FOR THE 2.0 VERSION ! * * * Highest Ranking: #8 in Adventure 19/11/17 Added to Wattpad's official adventure page reading list 'Fantastical Adventures' 05/12/17 * * * In the distant future of 3274, monsters rule the Earth. No one knows why or how they came onto the blue planet but that doesn't really matter anymore. One by one the humans started to disappear and were replaced by monsters until all that was left of them were their cities and knowledge. Legend has it that human survivors still exist and are living in the depths of a forest, right on the doorstep of the capital monster kingdom, Zyire. Protected and concealed by a magical border that burns monsters if they attempt to enter, the humans wait patiently for the right opportunity to strike and take back what once was theirs. 18 year-old human survivor Dawn lives within the borders of the forest, or as the humans call it, the Base. In the Base, the humans are separated into three groups; the Service, the Watchers and the Venturers. It is the Service's job to cook, what little food they have, and to heal the injured and sick. It is the Watcher's job to hide in the trees and scan the clearing, that lies before the forest's border, for monsters on the Venture days. It is the Venturers job to leave the forest borders on Venture days, and run into desolate cities to steal food, bedding and supplies that they need to survive. There is only one rule; never get caught. Venturer Dawn finds herself in a dangerous situation when she breaks the one rule. Dawn is caught by a monster, and not just any monster, but a monster who works as a Protector for their kind. Dawn soon learns that there are more to monsters than meets the eye. © 2016 by Heather Darte
