Raven – The Triballi Incident by Stephen E J Tomporowski

Raven – The Triballi Incident by Stephen E J Tomporowski

The Tournament is going Alliance wide! Deathmatch and Assault are the stadium events of the future, in simulation, for every planet of the Alliance. Now Central, the planet of the Top Tier competition, is expanding the very best to every planet. All good players head to Central for the money and now the Tournament Committee is sending the 2243 Champions, Iskandar Prime, on a promotional tour of major and minor colony planets even visiting Earth itself! After adventures including bananas on the royalty-rich planet of Mirabelle described in ‘Raven: Mirabelle’, the Iskandar tour visits AC3, the planet of infinite advertisements and lawyers; Earth, now a sparsely settled planet of museums and nature preserves; Orestes, Ancient Greece reborn and then Triballi where everything explodes. The team encounters not just inept local Tournament teams, but thieves, cheats, crime bosses, politicians and mythical elves. All the while, the team members keep their heads and wits about them even if it means flinging somebody into farm equipment.
Raven joined Iskandar Prime as a walk-on in ‘Raven: The Call from Central’. From the moment the Necris walked onto the field, Iskandar Prime turned into a juggernaut, plowing through the competition winning every match for six months, the only team in Tournament history to sweep the playoffs.
Join Iskandar Prime, the most diverse team ever, with Soria, the elf captain, squidiform Skylla, angeliform Calamity Angel, tournament legend Grabby and triple digit scorer, Raven, the Necris, Zinaida, Lara, Gothgirl, Dahija and Chaoschick, as they battle enemies both on the field and off.

Project Renaissance Man

About Project Renaissance Man:

Faithful to all. Focused on his duties. Fearful of everyone’s expectations.

The Storm of 2020 wiped out most of humanity. Of the hundreds remaining, Matthew Cane lives a privileged life. His friends support him. His beautiful, caring girlfriend would do anything for him. And his brilliant, president father treats him like a prince. Yet beneath Matt’s confident exterior, fear consumes him—fear of following in his father’s footsteps and fear of everyone learning his secret. He is no genius, unlike his father, the other 43 Renaissance men and women (RMs) in their little community, and his revered grandfather—one of the brightest people who ever lived and founder of Project RM.

When Matt’s dead mother speaks to him in a dream, he begins to learn the truth. Whether his fears were founded or not, the importance of his new path dwarfs them. To save our species, he and his friends must subvert their elders, risk their lives, and complete his mother’s mission.

From the Sky

About From the Sky:

An interdimensional being that’s stranded on earth learns what it means to give up everything for one human.

LUCIEN FOSTER never expected SAMANTHA HUNTER to live after he tried to save her from a car accident that killed her twin brother instantly. But, for some unexplainable reason, her body accepted his alien blood. Now, not only is she alive, she’s changing, becoming stronger. But there’s one problem: the rogue government agency MJ 12 that’s been after Lucien and his family from the start, knows her secret. Sam is the only human to thrive with alien DNA in her system, meaning she’s the one. Through her, MJ 12 can start to re-populate the planet with an alien/human hybrid, a super human.

Lucien must protect her. But he needs to get close to Sam first, so he enrolls in her high school. Like a magnet to steel, Sam is attracted to this strange new boy with the long, black hair and gray eyes, even though she can’t make sense of it, even though she’s still grieving. Lucien is intrigued by her, too, beyond his role as protector. He introduces her to the prospect of enjoying life again, and to the hidden world of aliens, and they fall in love. But the romance falls short when agents from MJ 12 start chasing Sam—and Lucien winds up kidnapped.

Sam must elicit help from his alien family hiding on earth—who aren’t happy she’s in the picture at all—to save him. Lucien’s brothers, CASSIEL and MICHAEL FOSTER, along with Sam, break into an underground medical facility, where they find and free Lucien. Cassiel does this using various alien powers, telekinesis being one of them.

But a high-up government official dies in an unrelated accident during their escape, and Lucien becomes the target. Now he’s wanted for murder.

Time is running out and it seems the only safe place left for Lucien to hide is Moira, the planet from which he came. But Sam would rather die than live a day on earth without him….

Leopold (Saga of the Bold People #1) by M.D. Grimm

About Leopold (Saga of the Bold People #1) by M.D. Grimm

How does a human survive in an alien dominated InterGalactic Community? By becoming an assassin, of course.

At least, that’s what Leopold thought when he became an assassin for the elite. Pretending to be an alien known as Voidstriker, Leopold feeds his appetite for vengeance, killing aliens as well as taking their money. It’s a win-win to his mind. That is, until a bounty is placed upon his head.

With his true identity now revealed to the IG Community, Leopold knows it’s only a matter of time before the powerful family members of his victims come for blood. Far worse is the fact that the one who put the bounty on his head, is the one he most fears.

A routine job three cycles ago brought him face-to-face with Mastrodai, a prince of the powerful Mrrog Nation. Not only did Leopold—accidentally—destroy part of Mastrodai’s moon, but one glimpse of the mighty alien had him feeling desire for the first time in his life. He ran, and like predator after prey, Mastrodai never stopped hunting him.

Leopold is convinced that Mastrodai wants bloody revenge. But when he finally confronts the mrrog, he is stunned to realize Mastrodai wants something very different. Something surprisingly intimate—the one thing that scares Leopold more than torture.

WARNING: 1) This is NOT a fluffy romance and 2) There is torture/rape OFF PAGE (NOT between the main couple, Mastrodai and Leopold–their sexy times are always consensual)
