Tara, the princess of Kasai, journeys to a new world after her own was consumed by an evil force. Together with fellow survivors aboard the Starbell, she is assigned a mission to establish contact with the planet's indigenous peoples. But things take a turn for the worse when her botched descent from the starship sends her off into a fate unknown. In this new world, Ting Shan and Heian Shan, a pair of brothers hailing from the disgraced Zhuang clan, are conscripted into the emperor's army. Ting is a timid and kind soul, unlike Heian, who finds joy in striking down those who stand in his way. However, when Ting awakens a god-like power capable of destroying thousands, he must decide whether to cling onto Heian's ways for the survival of their clan. Though they are worlds apart, Tara and Ting hold the key to each other's survival. Will they be able to save themselves and their people from certain destruction before time runs out?

The Avians, otherwise known as the guardian angels of the Earth will bring world peace when united. In 1908, Avian Candidates were selected after centuries of waiting, but Europe's own Swan Candidate, Tiara, was born, discarded and forgotten after a period of prosperity began in the town of Rlyll.

Now she has landed on his radar, and barrels into Norman's shoppe for safety, and incidentally, his life.

Funny Book Trailer: https://youtu.be/A2qlctVxpJw Would you like a couch with that painting? Obscurity is a way of life for Gavin Vonn Getch, a painter who works at a frame shop in a small New England town. His life changes when billionaire Gary Eastman enters his shop and becomes the ultimate patron: a lifetime commission for all his work in exchange for a crap-load of money. Some of his artist buddies envy him and others think he's sold out. Curious as to where his paintings are being displayed, he makes a trip to the DLC headquarters, where a shocking discovery forces him to reevaluate his deal with Eastman and his identity as an artist. Why does an artist create? What alternatives are there to completely selling out? Is there no genius-only marketing? The book is a satirical, and sometimes surreal look at the art world. OK, I kind of went nuts. Along with my book called Artifice, I'm including the 6 hour audio book on Wattpad. Since the book is written in first person, it made sense that I narrate the whole shebang. Instead of me doing bad versions of other character voices, I used more than 40 other voice actors to read all the other parts. But first watch the animated book trailer that was created from the audio book to get a better idea of what this project is all about. This is all in the video attached to chapter 1. The book is finished, I'll probably be posting 3 times a week for 40 chapters. Watch the funny animated book trailer: https://youtu.be/A2qlctVxpJw
