GAMMA THRESHOLD

In a world divided by an uneasy ceasefire, two neighboring cities stand on opposite sides of evolution. One city, Arcadia, is home to citizens born with abilities that defy the laws of physics—telekinesis, spatial distortion, mind influence—powers that have shifted the balance of global conflict and pushed humanity to the brink of war. The other city lives in fear, restrained by technology, diplomacy, and the knowledge that they are already falling behind. Ren Takahashi, a quiet, analytical high-school senior from a poor family, dreams not of power but of resolution. He believes war can be ended through engineering—through a weapon or system precise enough to stop conflict without destroying the world. His life revolves around school, responsibility, and the pressure of a future he feels unprepared for. Everything changes when Ren, along with two classmates— Aiko Nakamura, perceptive and emotionally attuned, and Kaito Moriyama, impulsive and fiercely protective— are drawn into the hidden laboratory beneath their academy. Their biology teacher, Mr. Sashimoto, reveals himself as a rogue scientist obsessed with human evolution. Through a controlled—but flawed—experiment involving gamma radiation, the three students cross a critical biological limit known as the Gamma Threshold: the point at which the human body stops rejecting change and begins adapting to it. They do not gain powers instantly. Instead, they gain residuals—heightened perception, unnatural clarity, unstable abilities that manifest differently in each of them. As their bodies and minds evolve, so does the danger around them. When Arcadia detects their emergence, the conflict escalates. New, untrained individuals begin awakening across the city. Public incidents are narrowly contained. Secrecy becomes fragile. Morality blurs as Ren is forced into leadership—not because he seeks it, but because he understands the cost of failure. As Arcadia’s agents move in the shadows and governments circle from above, Ren must confront an impossible question: Can humanity evolve without losing itself? Gamma Threshold is a slow-burn action sci-fi manga about evolution, responsibility, and the terrifying truth that the greatest weapon is not power—but control.

Fancy a Second Life?

Kade Lennox, a 25‑year‑old call‑centre worker from Glasgow, has three constants in his life: lukewarm tea, late‑night Doctor Who reruns with the ghost of his dad’s laughter in his ears, and the gnawing guilt of the night he froze while his best mate was beaten on the pavement and then walked out of his life. He has quietly decided he’s a coward, even if he’d never say the word out loud. ​ One rainy evening, hurrying to another nothing shift, Kade sees an eight‑year‑old girl step into the path of a speeding truck. This time, his body moves before his fear does. He drags her clear—and takes the impact himself. Instead of darkness, he wakes on the Edge: a strange, white nowhere perched on the lip of a bottomless cliff, face to face with an old man who calls himself a Guardian of the Edge and speaks with all the voices Kade has ever trusted, including his dad’s. ​ At the Edge, Kade learns he is dead but not yet gone. This is the threshold every mind passes in the moment of dying. Step over the cliff, and there is no return. Turn away, and—if he chooses—he can be sent back. Not to his old life, but to a new one: reborn as a Time Lord in a universe he knows only from episodes and box sets, offered a second life he’s dreamed of and never truly believed he deserved. ​ Given ten stolen minutes of borrowed time, a teapot that tastes like home, and the worst sales pitch in cosmic history, Kade must decide whether to rest at last or take on a life of impossible planets, monsters, and the constant risk of failing bigger than he ever could on Earth. The Doctor’s old creed—never be cruel, never be cowardly, hate is foolish, love is wise—suddenly stops being a quote on a screen and becomes the standard Kade will be held to across galaxies. If he chooses the second life, Kade will wake on Gallifrey not as a fan, but as one of them: a new Time Lord with a taste for 60s music, a retro TARDIS, a misbehaving bit of psychic paper, and more power to help or harm than he ever wanted. He’ll collect companions he’s afraid to love, artefacts he hides behind, and a reputation for talking his way out of trouble while quietly falling apart. Each world he visits will force him to confront the very things he tried to leave behind on that Glasgow road: guilt, cowardice, love, and the terror of letting people get close when they can be taken away. ​ Fancy a Second Life? is a character‑driven, bittersweet sci‑fi novel about a very ordinary man offered the most extraordinary escape hatch imaginable—and discovering that becoming a hero in a universe he adored from his sofa is much harder than quoting it. It’s about second chances, the cost of running, and learning that bravery isn’t a moment in front of a truck, but a choice you make every day afterward.

Awakening of the Cosmic Eggs

The Universe is a Tree, and Arthur is its only Key!" Millions of years ago, the 'Ancient World Tree' gave birth to three realms: Leaf, Flower, and Fruit. From the heart (Core) of this tree, an extremely rare species was born, through whom the divine power of the tree itself flowed. They were the parents of the 'Cosmic Egg'—the guardians of that mysterious egg, which is the key to the supreme power of the three universes. A Great Destruction changed everything, but that key has now returned in the form of Arthur. The 'Cosmic Egg' has merged within Arthur, granting him that ancient power for which even the gods crave. While the rest of the world's hunters are evolving themselves with mediocre powers of 2 or 3 leaves, Arthur faces the most difficult challenge. To evolve, he must find rare 7-leaf remains, the fragrance of divine flowers, and the taste of immortal fruits. Arthur must reclaim his lost heritage and confront the forces that destroyed his (cosmic egg)parents and his world. This journey, starting from the Leaf and reaching the Fruit, is the pinnacle of adventure, revenge, and evolution. The grand saga begins...
