The Anarchist of Ophridia (Horsemen Origins Book 4)
In order to save a world ruled by a bloodthirsty dictator, one man must become the galaxy's deadliest terrorist. Xing Ming Lee was a botanist on Earth who lived a peaceful and bountiful life. Ophridia, informally known as the "China Planet" was discovered by chinese astronomers and was seen as a solution to the country's overpopulation problem. Lee, along with millions of other Chinese natives, were uprooted and sent to the dark, cloud-clad world where the sun never touches the ground to work in the coal mines. Ophridia's ruler, Yiu Mei has held the planet in the grip of his hand for almost a decade, having seceded from the Core, and utilized her wealth to keep the Core out of his affairs. He also instigated a program known as the Xiongbu, or "the terror" in order to keep his rule absolute. However, tragedy strikes and Lee finds himself a victim of the Xiongbu, having been named a traitor by an unknown source. He manages to escape into the barren wilderness, where he has a vision: he must unleash his own form of terror upon Yiu Mei and overthrow the insidious tyrant. Xing Ming Lee returns to the sprawling city, only to find that Yiu Mei's grip has tightened. He must work quickly to recruit, train and gather a following so that he can disappear into the populace at will. As Lee's cause for resistance swallows the planet, he descends deeper into the darkness, and discovers just how far he must go to destroy a tyrannical government. This explosive, action-packed and haunting story was written in the spirit of Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Identity and Joseph Conrad's The Secret Agent.Complete
Gladiator
Edit: Now available on Amazon Kindle Unlimited for free! Check out the link below for updates and more! Conan was an ordinary working student until he "died."

Gaslight Trials | The Wattys2023 Shortlister ✔️
| 𝟳𝘅 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗗 ·|| HUNGER GAMES x CINDER || ONC 2023 Honorable Mention Amidst the escalating unrest between the windborne utopian city of Lighthaven and its seedy, oppressed underbelly Fumedge, the Grand Duke of Lighthaven, Lucius Sextus, comes up with an ingenious solution. To provide much-wanted respite from the brewing conflict, and achieve the apparent-if-temporary unity, he organizes Gaslight Trials - a highly entertaining panem-et-circenses combat event in the Pits. The combatants may use all steam and thaumaturgy powered augmentations at their disposal, and there is only one rule: defeat, or be defeated. The reward for the last one standing? A chance to start their life anew. A brass key to the city of Lighthaven with a luxurious mansion to call their own within, as well as an aeroship to command. When eighteen-year-old Veda Igglesden steps forward to take her timeworn adoptive father's place in the fight, she might as well be signing her death-sentence. With her eyes fully set on the prize, act-first-think-later Veda must harness the power of technology to try and win for her Papa Otto. Decades of breathing in the toxic air of Fumedge did a number on the old inventor's lungs, and being able to live in the air-filtered Lighthaven would sure come in handy right about now. A high-flying adventure full of gadgetry and intrigue; a pleasing blend of steampunk and postapocalyptic. See Veda unravel the mysterious ploy behind the game's organization, and uncover the truth about her secret origins. Can she cope both with the trials of physical and intellectual prowess, as well as with the trials of life itself: those of love, loss and regret? © 2023 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompt 49! Which is (I shan't leave ye hanging :P): "Master the rules of the game until you can play it better than they can." Michael Scott, "The Sorceress" Get ready for steampunkish tinkering,Complete

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series.

My Bleeding Heart
Hello. This is a story much like "The Hunger Games". You'll know what I mean once you read. Anyway, this story will have various *Trigger Warnings* so *proceed with caution*. I know the cover looks a little odd but I do fully intend to change it. Just not as of now. This is very much a story you will have to read to know what it's about in detail. Keep in mind I haven't written a story or book in more than 2 years. So this is definitely a little sloppy, but I hope it's at least up to pare. I'm not exactly expecting this to get much attention, I actually don't know if I want it to get any at all. But, here we are. I hope y'all enjoy if you do decide to read. :) ‼️NOTICE‼️ This book will involve many sensitive topics and content. Proceed with caution. Things it will include, but are not limited to: SH, Slurs, Death, Murder, Abuse, Racism, Ableism, Gaslighting, Delusions, Hallucinations, Medication, Abuse Of Power, NSFW/Smut Etc.
A Century Prior
Austin, a struggling boy who's trying to survive in a fallen economy following a third world war. Within a North Dakotan town, he has to face the challenges of taking care of his sick mother, making money through any means necessary. However, after surviving a gun shot wound that should've been fatal did Austin come to the realization of newly awakened abilities. From this newfound realization does Austin decide to start leading a double life thanks to the encouragement of a friend. During this time does he discover that there's an organization within the shadows wanting him, and all others like him, dead. Note: This is a prequel to my story Xtravaganza. That story is not a required read to understand this one, but both stories do take place within the same universe.
