I died a heroic, powerful, male Archmage… so why did I wake up as a sixteen-year-old girl?! Theo’s last memory is of a glorious, failed last stand. His next is a beeping hospital machine—and a terrifyingly handsome guy he’s pretty sure is a demon calling him “princess.” Now, he’s Thea Montrose, youngest daughter of a powerful family in a world run on magi-tech and corporate espionage. Between navigating floating cars, enduring his new mom’s hugs, and figuring out the horrifyingly complex mechanics of using the bathroom, Theo has his hands full. But his new family is hiding secrets, and their rivals play for keeps. Good thing this spoiled heiress’s body now holds the soul of an ancient wizard. They wanted the real Thea back? They’re about to get way more than they bargained for. He failed to save his old world from an apocalypse—now he just might save this one (and finally figure out how this bra works).

Fifty years after the Battle of Yavin, the galaxy finds itself in a fragile state of recovery. Scarred by the Yuuzhan Vong War and Darth Caedus’s reign, countless worlds and individuals struggle to rebuild from decades of devastation. Amid the fractured alliances of the reformed New Republic, the Imperial Remnants, and independent coalitions, the Jedi Order stands as a beacon of hope. On Yavin 4, the Jedi Temple serves as a sanctuary for Force-sensitive children, offering them a chance to heal and find purpose. Among the new arrivals is Kael Varo, formerly Kael Valtherion, a boy who abandoned his Imperial noble heritage to embrace the path of the Jedi. Alongside him is Vila Saresh, a twi'lek freed from slavery, haunted by her past but determined to find a brighter future. As these Padawans confront their own traumas, they uncover the lingering echoes of ancient threats: Sith artifacts, Yuuzhan Vong technology, and the ideological scars left by Darth Caedus, still twisting others, even after his death. Guided by the wisdom of Grandmaster Luke Skywalker, the young Jedi must learn that being a Jedi is not merely about mastering the Force but about finding unity and courage in a galaxy still divided. ------ Author's notes: Hey-ho people! Welcome to my Star Wars fanfiction, which is told from a first-person point of view. For a bit of background information and what to expect, you must know a few things about me: My first introduction to Star Wars was on VHS, so I am not a newcomer to the setting. I was a child when there was only the trilogy and a teen when the prequels happened. I grew up reading the Expanded Universe and with the stories and exploits of Luke. This story of mine will take place in 50 ABY, right after the Expanded Universe mostly stopped producing stories. Writing it, anything that happened after the Disney acquisition is going to be ignored. This even includes the Mandalorian series because no matter how good the first season was, it was built on a foundation made out of sand. Proof: Book of Boba Fett and the third season. I'll try my very best to stay true to the original vision of what made Star Wars so captivating. Expect weekly chapters!

Spoiled by luxury and driven by ambition, Artemis—a young hitwoman—can’t seem to escape the shadows of a fractured world left behind by those who came before her. In cities made of neon-lit ruins and broken promises, she’s learnt to survive by cutting corners and making deals in the dark. But the interesting thing about survival, is that it always comes at a cost. And the further she goes, the messier it gets. As Artemis sinks further into a world of corporate corruption and underground schemes, she begins to realize she’s caught in the unfinished business of a forgotten war. A war with secrets so deep that even its echoes can still change lives, challenge loyalties, and threaten everything she thought she knew. But how long can she keep doing this? Running from the past—hers and everyone else’s? Now, with a buried conspiracy that’s been building for two decades starting to unravel, its consequences could reshape the future of the world itself. (This story is based on the Cyberpunk 2020 universe but is effectively its own.)

A science-fiction, post-apocalyptic epic blending hard science with metaphysical philosophy, a saga of action, faith, and survival, where the spirit of Muay Thai inside a ten-year-old boy collides with the ancient art of Qi cultivation. Futuristic science and inner discipline fuse into one struggle: staying alive in a fallen age. Kaodin, the ten-year-old son of a Muay Thai dojo family, becomes entangled in a timeless demon’s scheme and is cast through a cosmic rift, a wound between worlds that births Aeonfall itself. In its wake, the Qi dormant in his body ignites and merges with the rift’s strange radiation, reshaping inner circulation into a force that warps the boundaries of biology, matter, and will, turning his worldly power into something far beyond any human comprehension. In the broken future, Kaodin becomes a pivot point in humanity’s survival, a living proof that defiance can outlast ruin. He faces a question with teeth: does he sever the cycle of destruction and challenge the Timeless One’s existence, or does the desolation of this era consume his last thread of hope, the hope of rekindling humanity’s fate and returning to his original time to reunite with his family.

Roland arrived in the world of Cyberpunk in 2066 — and awakened the PROJECT System. From that moment on, another giant began to quietly rise within the neon sprawl of Night City. Years later, Roland sat by the window, a small mechanical spider with a mantis-shaped head resting in his palm, a pet lizard curled in his arms. The world outside was still dazzling, the city still alive — yet somewhere along the way, something had quietly shifted. During an interview, when someone brought up the Arasaka Corporation, they casually asked: “Arasaka Tower? There’s no such building in Night City — at least, not below…” The man slowly lifted his head, his eyes reflecting the city skyline — and behind him, a massive inverted triangle blazed with the blinding white PROJECT logo.

What is the fundamental purpose behind humanity’s evolution of emotions? Can such strategic evolution—rooted in the primal drive to survive and thrive—truly be classified as intelligence? If the answer is yes, then artificial intelligence and mechanical silicon-based intelligence must qualify as well. Is calculating faster the ultimate goal of artificial intelligence? Does swifter signal transmission and quicker computation inherently guarantee a greater advantage? Why do planets, interstellar debris, comets, and other celestial bodies across the universe harbor microbes and life forms, yet to date, no trace of robots or AI-driven bio-robots has ever been discovered on any of them?

[A mortal warmaster story about the Imperial Navy, with many female protagonists and a lot of hammering! ] Horatio never expected that he, a scum of the lower nest who was sentenced to death at the beginning, would become the first expedition warmaster from the Imperial Navy.

"Hot Noodles request to add you as a friend." An inexplicable friend request, a non-existent contact. Claiming to be a message from herself in the future, intimately knowledgeable about her past. Fang Xiaocao was utterly numb. Hot Noodles: Danger, do not go home tonight. "Is this some kind of joke?" Staring at the WeChat message, Fang Xiaocao rolled her eyes and opened the anti-theft door. Hot Noodles: At midnight, when the knocking starts, don't turn on the light if you don't want to die. In the early morning: 00:00:00 Fang Xiaocao was woken by the knocking sound. She was just about to turn on the bedside lamp when she remembered that bizarre message. She pulled back her hand and stayed put until dawn, only to know her neighbor next door, a woman living alone just like her was murdered at midnight...

Following the message's instructions, she bought a second-hand car. But little did she know, the guidance was linking her into a series of events that dragged out a murder case and a fortune worth two small goals. Who on earth sent her the messages? It's really her future self? Or it's some kind of bizarre game?

Lieutenant Commander Cole was a thirty-four-year-old from a world where Star Trek was merely fiction, until a terminal gasp transported him into a younger, optimized body aboard the USS Enterprise-D. He has been gifted three intrinsic abilities: Energy Manipulation, Enhanced Physicality, and Technology Assimilation—powers that function not through a game-like system, but through the organic expansion of his consciousness. Using his meta-knowledge of the 24th century, Cole intervenes in the Armus incident on Vagra II, saving Tasha Yar from her canonical death and forging a deep, complicated bond with her. As he balances his duties as an engineer with the fragment of Armus still tethered to his chest, he must navigate the ethical complexities of his "Traveler-like" potential. From managing the emergence of the Moriarty AI to preparing for the Borg threat, Cole is no longer just a passenger in history; he is the ship's designated expert on artificial consciousness and the variable that will determine if the Federation survives the coming storms.

What happens when the protagonist of a world dies? Does the world cease to exist? Or does it hold its crumbling pieces together in a desperate attempt to save itself? In a world where peace had finally become a reality, the man chosen by fate dies in an accident the world was never meant to allow. His death went unnoticed, unacknowledged by the world and the system that rules it. Until it was too late. As things go south and mana starts seeping into a world that is marching towards its demise, Kim Han—a man that was never supposed to mean anything in this story—finds himself facing a difficult situation. Unseen and uninterrupted by the fate that was withering, he must decide if he should quietly intervene in the tragedy that will unfold, or let the world choke under the weight of a story that will now never end.

A recurring nightmare afflicted Khan's nights since the Second Impact. His dreams replayed the scenes of the crash of the Nak's spaceship, an alien race that the humans had defeated five hundred years ago. Khan's life had turned upside-down after the tragedy. His mother had died during the incident, and the Nak's toxic mana had infected him. His father had managed to save him, but they ended up losing their home and name in the process. The nightmares wouldn't let Khan forget about the Nak, so he decided to join the Global Army and learn to wield mana. He had to put an end to those dreams, even if that meant hunting down that alien race through the stars. ------------------------------------- Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/EoCNovels Instagram: eocnovels Discord link: https://discord.gg/fNsPwXMP7P

"Don't come back! Don't return!" That was the last message Tom received from Earth before the signal died. Stranded 15 billion kilometers from the sun, he has enough supplies to survive alone for fifteen years. But Tom doesn't want to die alone. He wants to conquer. Desperate, Tom activates the ship’s biological livestock tank. He doesn't breed cattle; he clones himself. When the clone opens its eyes, Tom realizes he hasn't just created a helper, He has unlocked a Hive Mind. One consciousness. Multiple bodies. Parallel processing. More clone, more processing power But power has a price. With twelve clones now awake, his fifteen-year food supply has shrunk to a death sentence: One year. Forced into a corner, Tom must lead his clone army to the frozen, airless surface of Loshen Star.

And he will turn this dead planet into a civilization of one.

After the first wave of the virus Erebis, half of humanity is gone. The survivors don’t rebuild the world — they divide it. From the ruins rise four cities, each a cage shaped by class: one where the poor endure hunger and humiliation, one where the middle class survives on restraint and fading hope, one where the rich drown in luxury built on denial, and one where the elites crown themselves untouchable, believing power makes them immortal. Through the voice of Pema, a mother watching the world fracture, Endling explores a future where survival comes without dignity, walls replace compassion, and inequality is written into law. Children starve while others play with machines. Humanity lives on — but broken, arrogant, and divided. This is not a story about saving the world. It’s about what remains when fear reshapes humanity, and the plague changes form. Dark, emotional, and brutally realistic — Endling asks one question: What does survival mean when humanity itself is dying?

They said the Aether was Paradise. But that was a lie. In 2098, earth was a waste land, which caused humanity to divide. The trillionaires uploaded their minds into a digital heaven, leaving their physical bodies behind in the frozen vaults of the Server Farms. Elias is a Caretaker. He doesn't ask questions. He just scrubs the glass, checks the tubes, and ensures the sleeping gods don't decay. It’s was a calm, dark life... until Pod 815 wakes up. She shouldn't be awake. She shouldn't be screaming. And she definitely shouldn't know his name. Suddenly thrown into a conspiracy that threatens to delete the human race, Elias is infected with a forbidden code. A "Glitch" that the System cannot control. While others play by the rules of the simulation, Elias breaks them. While others hack the firewall, Elias consumes it. He awakened something big. Now, the most powerful AI in existence wants him dead. The city wants him erased. But they are about to learn a terrifying lesson: You cannot kill a virus that...........
