In his quest for immortality Mr. Silver accumulates incredible knowledge, but accidentally unleashes a terrible evil on the world and loses his greatest friend. There may be no way to make amends, however that does not stop him from trying.

The academy for monster slayers has trained generations of protectors to fight the evil that Silver unleashed, however The Truth and its dark secrets never ceased to haunt poor Silver's mind.

Sarah remembers being reborn with amazing gifts. She knows why people were gifted their fantastic powers. She knows why women with powers were fewer and why their abilities were stronger. Sarah remembers how it all started. But she doesn’t know why she has other people’s memories.

Reality had cracked. With her found family, Sarah tried to stop an enemy unbound by time and save a girl from becoming something dark and sinister. All the while she was keeping darkness from taking over her own body.

Fate was against them and failure meant the end of the world and possibly the unraveling of reality itself. Were these things destined to happen or was there a plan even their enemy could not see? Sarah didn’t know if this was the end of her life or just the beginning of the next one.

Five years ago, a lab assistant in Georgia managed to create a mutation that could travel from the DNA of a mosquito to a DNA cell of a human.

When told to destroy the cell for fear of peoples safety, he refused, breeding mosquitoes with the mutation and sending them out.

The first wave of panic spread when citizens learned the mutation had spread, the second, a tsunami of terror when scientists realized the DNA cell effected was only preset in people under the age of twenty-five.

In a desperate attempt to protect their children, adults began staying at home, avoiding contact with the outside world.

Through many distanced meetings, the government decided the best way to avoid this crisis would be to round up all the people who develop the mutation, keeping them secured in special facilities.

When a group of twenty-year-old's escaped however, they realized it wouldn't be so easy to control this virus they fittingly named Extirpation Alteration 45.

Deciding it was the only way to save the human race, the president payed for every adult over the age of thirty to join his in a newly built space station, issuing that anyone who couldn't leave their children behind would have to stay.

Now, in 2050, Tate Stevens is prepared to fix the problem her parents were too cowardly to face.

With her group of truly useless teenage companions, can Tate help the others and save the world from destruction?

The screams were alive, sharpening my senses and making the hair on my arms raise in anticipated fear.

Every year it happened. Another member of our small group would start developing the mutation, leaving the rest of us worried about who would reach the dreaded 'age' next and be lost forever.

Last time it was Charlie White. Now as Rebecca screamed and tore at the chains wrapped around her chest, I finally understood why Katy was so wary about accepting stray children.

After the adults left, we lost structure. We lost understanding. We began to lose ourselves.

That's when I decided that I would bring them back. All of them.

Every child was going to come back home again, and I would make it happen.

Fire. Bullets. Blades. An army of machines bent on his capture, and destroying and killing everyone—and everything— around him.

And Silas thought that his lonely existence sucked before the car crash…at least then, there weren’t Bio-Droids hunting him for sport in a post-apocalyptic world dominated by A.I. and robots.

Silas was a normal teenage kid before the crash. Normal except for his growing apathy with society and the world around him, made worse by a recent tragedy—an accident he is responsible for. There will be no closure or forgiveness. Only an immense, insurmountable guilt he feels he can never confront or escape.

But then, Silas’ life is violently turned upside-down, both literally and figuratively, in a terrifying car accident. Now, his past problems pale in comparison to his current predicament, where somehow, he’s regained consciousness from the crash in a dystopian, post-apocalyptic hell-hole decades into the future, with partial amnesia and a new metal body, designed for battle and equipped with an arm cannon.

Now, he’s on the run from killer droids, and the army of automatons they control. The only way for him to save the remaining population of humanity and recover his memory is to go directly into the heart of the beast, and forcefully assimilate the abilities—called ‘Protocols’—of his most powerful enemies.

A sleepless owl at night, wandering through different times and worlds, weaving together short stories that blend a myriad of emotions.

The Four Kingdoms had to defend their home once already. Twenty years ago, the self-proclaimed, Lord Varamont launched a full-scale war on the inhabitants of the continent of Monmarolin.

Using his enslaved demons, he made his way across the land slaughtering without prejudice. If they did not submit to his will, they would die.

In the end of the four year long war, Lord Varamont was surrounded by the human, elf, and dwarven alliance. They had fought hard and had lost many but they had never given up.

Before the alliance could end the sadistic demon wizard, he used his last amount of magic to separate their forces, permanently. He split the entire continent in four islands and filled the empty space be with dark magic of his own creation.

Today, he makes his return to continue where he left off. And this time he would not face defeat.

Brent es un chico que vive en un mundo moderno en el que la magia se expresa a través de distintos elementos de la naturaleza, o de fuerzas todavía más dominantes, como son la compañía de seres especiales.

Con el anhelo de despertar sus capacidades, este jovencito se ha sentido apartado de este sueño desde muy pequeño, estigmatizado como alguien ordinario a pesar de que esconde un mundo en su interior, una dicotomía como una llave a puertas misteriosas.

El torbellino de sucesos provoca que Brent adquiera un deseo para descubrir más sobre su doble legado, y lo impulsará a aventurarse por el mundo, a la par que siente el llamado de un misterioso artilugio.
