Set in the late 1880s, All Our Yesterdays is the story of a young woman plunged into a world she doesn't understand. A world where power resides, where she is hunted and loathed for what she has become, and where she has to kill to survive.

There's humour, too, honest

The Odd Life of Cornelius Tessington by stormchaser13

Hi there, I've just been playing around with the idea of Victorian historical fiction so I decided to write a Victorian story! It's about a young woman named Edith Owen and when her mother is out of work she must find a job as a servant in the home of the new lord, Lord Cornelius Tessington. However Tessington is somewhat of an...eccentric. The sort of man who is gossiped about at every part. Mad to many, everyine assumes there's not a thing that can bother this young lord. But can Edith look past the boyish nature and odd lifestyle to find something other than charm and wit deep down inside? Filled with jealousy, determination and the witty words of Cornelius Tessington I hope you enjoy! Please Read and Review!

Awakening - The Last Science #1 by Etzoli

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. New chapters will be posted on Fridays for as long as it takes to tell the whole story.

The story of Eliza Oswald by costacoffiepig

What happens in Victorian London when you are a young lady and you suddenly find yourself without a mother and with a father who refuses to see what was in front of him. Also this is a strange and accidental mix of ITV's Victoria and Hamilton (the musical). I'm not entirely sure how it happened but it did. Rated mature because I am paranoid.
