Selene Voss, a brilliant private detective, abandoned her career and city life seven years ago after a devastating tragedy: on the day of her wedding, her husband — Ethan Marlowe — was brutally murdered by a criminal she had once caught during a previous case. His body was never officially identified, but Selene recognized him by his wedding ring. Since then, she has lived in isolation, far from the world she once knew. Everything changes when her former boss, Marcus Hale, comes to her door: his son has mysteriously disappeared, and several other children have been found dead three days after vanishing. Selene initially refuses to get involved, determined to stay away from her past. But Marcus’s desperate pleas leave her with no choice. Time is running out. For Selene, it is returning to the place where she lost everything, facing her demons, and hunting dangerous criminals once again. Each investigation will be filled with mysteries, red herrings, and shocking revelations, where Selene Voss must rely on her intuition, courage, and intelligence to protect the innocent and confront her own past.

Odessyus Voss grew up underneath machines. He learned to fix things before he learned to read — the feel of a misaligned joint, the sound of a crystal running below capacity, the particular vibration that meant something was wrong before anything had visibly broken. His uncle Harlan taught him that. Along with how to work hard and stay quiet and never ask about the parents he had no memory of. When an academy letter arrives — the Cain Royal Arcane-Tech Academy, the most elite institution in the kingdom — Harlan tells him he's not going. Then hands over the letter. Odessyus doesn't understand why. He goes anyway. At the academy, everything changes. He tests at a rank that shouldn't be possible without the unsealing ceremony every human student receives before enrollment. A ceremony his uncle never arranged — and never questioned. What follows is four years of academy life with real stakes: found family in three mismatched roommates, a rivalry with the most brilliant student in the cohort, alliances with the Castaway staff the rest of the academy treats as invisible, and a slow, careful uncovering of a truth that touches everything — the sealed magic, the stolen identity in a festival staffing roster, the old knight living quietly under a false name, and the question that a vampire diplomacy professor has been asking for nine years without answering. Who benefits from the peace breaking? Heir of Two Worlds is a YA fantasy web novel about identity, inherited betrayal, and the difference between the family you're given and the family you build. It's a story about a boy who learned to listen to machines — and what happens when he starts listening to everything else. For readers of An Ember in the Ashes, The Beginning After the End, and anyone who's ever felt like the system wasn't built for them. Some questions, once asked, can't be unasked

"Zero is not the end; it is the foundation of an empire." The Five Realms once flourished in splendor, but now they lie in ruin, suffocating under the iron grip of five ruthless tyrants. Within the shadows of oppression, the common folk endure a hopeless existence, haunted by famine, plague, and the darkness of ignorance. Into this desolation comes Kaelen Voss.

Starting from Zero, Kaelen begins to gather the broken and the persecuted to establish a new civilization. With a blade in one hand to defy his enemies, and the blueprints for a new era of education, healthcare, and economy in the other, he begins his ascent. • What strategies will he employ to dismantle the might of the five tyrants? • What lost technologies will he resurrect to save a starving populace? • How will he unite the shattered Five Realms to forge a magnificent new empire? "In my empire, there shall be no slaves. Mankind shall claim a life more noble than the gods themselves." This is the legendary odyssey of Kaelen Voss—the man who built an empire from nothing.

THE UNSEEN THRONE Rise of Ethan Voss ───────────────────────────── CHAPTERS ONE THROUGH TWENTY Complete & Unabridged ABOUT THIS NOVEL ───────────── Ethan Voss scrubs floors at Harrington University. He is, by all visible evidence, a scholarship student working a maintenance job to put himself through college — unremarkable, quiet, easy to overlook, easier to dismiss. He is also the hidden heir to the Voss-Krane Dynasty, sovereign-designate of the Sentinel Order: a centuries-old institution that stands between the human world and a parallel dimension of entities exerting constant pressure on the barrier between them. His parents were murdered three years ago on a highway in Zurich, in a fire made to look like an accident, orchestrated by a man the Order knows only as Meridian. Meridian has been watching Ethan ever since. Ethan has been watching back. Over five hundred chapters, THE UNSEEN THRONE follows Ethan from houseboy to sovereign — through campus politics and dimensional warfare, through the slow architecture of trust and the sudden weight of grief, through the nine Vanguard Commanders who must be won and the Shadow Architect who must be stopped. It is a story about patience as a form of power. About the difference between hiding and watching. About what it costs to become exactly who you were always supposed to be. The chapters that follow are complete and fully written. The stone is heavy.
