Several thousand metric tons of raw materials, hundreds of containers filled withmanufactured goods, dozens of unmarked reinforced containers, several data banks, and one unknown, heavily secured portable storage hold. A typical shipment for the crew of the UTS Destiny, nothing out of the ordinary. That is until strange things start occurring on the ship. At first, it's relatively benign; static on extravehicular communications, deleted or corrupted personal files, strange sounds and items appearing and disappearing. As time passes however, the events become more and more bizarre and dangerous. Is the cargo what it truly seems to be, and more importantly, will the crewmembers of the Destiny survive to their destination, or are they doomed to spend eternity in the cold, dark expense of deep space?

Return to Earth
This is a completed novel that has been proofed. Editing will begin in April, 2022. Shortly after the first ships were sent to colonize Mars all communication with Earth was lost. The other ships that were supposed to arrive never did. What had started as the first of many became the only ones. Domes were built to protect the people living there, since Mars could not be conquered as the early scientists had hoped. Rather than their dreams of taming a planet, they settled for living with a place never meant for humans. Kierst is one of the descendants of those early settlers and works on the interior of one the domes. His job gives him the solitude he prefers with both work and home. He has no family and no friends, which is one of the reasons he is chosen to learn the truth about what happened to Earth and why everyone on Mars must return. He is among a small group who are entrusted with the greatest secret of his government. If his group fails, there will be no future for those living on Mars. Their secret fate lies with those who must return to Earth.Complete

Just make sure that she isn't with a robber or murderer or Skeletalian sleeper agent. If anything goes wrong, there's a beacon right here!" Ank then handed Hydrium a device of infinite complexity. His mind started to fold under the sheer impossibility of the device. Hydrium could only stare dumbfounded at the machine." The Voka Cluster: An area of space at the edge of the universe.

This game definitely does exist
Have you ever how the 'unique quest chains' are born, how 'mega-rare super-items' just drop out of thin air, and why every random minor character in the starting village is a hidden expert? I am the reason. I am the silently curshing ghost ofthe machine running cogs of 'secret quests', the plot-driving device of destiny, the shepherd to the millions of players that just KNOW that every stone holds a unique opportunity for loot, lore and skills. I am a sole Admin of the greatest DMMO-RPG, partialy AI and a man who holds the great responsibility overseeing the life of the game... With a slight problem though. The game was destroyed a week before it's start. Completely. So now there is no game. There are players, me and million of cheap tricks I honed in my life for the single goal of proving to all of you, that... This game definitely does exist. --- First of all, I post this book on my Patreon. 18 chapters of this book are there - for 3$ it's all yours... Though, of course, I will be posting it for free on this site too. Except I first post them on my Patreon - so now 1 chapter is here - and 19 are there. When it would have 10 chapters here? 28 chapters are there. So... You know? You can support my life there for 18 chapters ahead of the curve. I will be very grateful!

True Identity // A Socksfor1 Horror AU
Humans are quite possibly the lowest level of life from what I can tell. They just come and go as they please, destroy what they please, and contain unknown beings like me for "the safety of humanity." Yeah, right. And they're also pretty stupid, judging from how easy it was to break free from those foundation fools holding me captive. And now I'm stuck controlling a human body (that does NOT like to cooperate, mind you) while I complete my final plans for the human race. And if you're wondering... yes, I'm going to murder them all. Starting with this little "Skeld Crew" that I've heard about. Not much, but a start. A start that will strike the fear essence of my true power into the hearts of every human in existence. - Unknown ---------- 541 & Dr Vyllin are the only characters in this I own. All the others belong to their respected owners. !DISCLAIMER! This story is a horror type story. There will be themes relating to/depicting: blood, death, gore, corruption, cannibalism, body horror, etc. If you are sensitive to these topics, reader discretion is advised.

Captain Sarah Chen has both in the Starcaller, making a living in the shadows between legitimate salvage and outright piracy. It's a good life, if not always a legal one. Then they find the Keystone. Hidden in the ruins of a civilization older than human memory, it's an artifact that can twist the fabric of reality itself. Some say it's a tool of creation, others a weapon of unimaginable power. To Sarah, it's the kind of trouble that gets people killed. Now the Starcaller's crew is caught between the Crimson Collective's merciless hunters, corrupt officials of the Concordat, and ancient guardians awakening from eons of slumber.

A meteorite slams into the earth causing a global catastrophe, the particles on the atmosphere block out the sun for years, slowly cooling the planet leading to a world-wide ice age.
