In the rhythm-synchronized empire of Elysium, order is law, and the elite Generals are its living weapons. General Lucaen Theron, the perfect heir to a legacy of judgment, is having a bad day. Locked out of his own headquarters and late for duty, his only way in is through his greatest irritant: the gloriously insubordinate General Aurelius Everhart. Their forced partnership for a high-priority "Emergence" mission should be a routine purge of galactic parasites. But in the blighted ruins of Echolon, where reality itself unravels, they find something worse. The mission is a trap. The enemy is smarter. And their own institution is hiding a rot that could consume every synced soul in Elysium. Now, with his skills nullified and his rigid worldview shattered, Lucaen must rely on the one person he can't stand to survive—a charismatic showman with a devastating secret and a loyalty that could get them both erased. To save their world, they'll have to break every rule that holds it together. A high-stakes sci-fi thriller where the greatest threat isn't the monster in the ruins, but the silent betrayal in the system, and the only thing more dangerous than their alliance is being forced to fight without it.

Until he crashlands on the Wynne Farm near St Anne, Alderney, Edmund Bolton will have insisted the most prudent thing about himself is his medical degree and his willingness to fight fascists. But of course it’s that island, and that farm – and that family. Aidan Wynne is tortured by the shame of others and tormented by a freedom he feels he can never possess. Until the handsome military doctor with far too much understanding and far too little self-preservation comes to turn his life on its head. The war makes fighters of all affected, but none so much as the lovers and those who must love quietly. Often, the fray has less to do with weaponry and bloodshed, and everything to do with keeping tame a passion that seeks to send the world up in flames without burning oneself up in the process. "Once more into the fray, into the last good fight I’ll ever know. Live and die on this day, live and die on this day." Fray is created by Li Walt, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

The original owner constantly caused trouble and made things difficult for the female lead, earning her the hatred of the entire internet. Upon transmigrating and seeing that everything had been ruined by the original owner, Sophie's only thought was: "What kind of nightmare start is this?!" To escape the original owner's fate, Sophie Wexler worked diligently, conducted herself conscientiously, stayed away from the male and female leads, compensated the soldiers harmed by the original owner, and strove to be a model citizen of The Galaxy, absolutely refusing to be the cannon fodder 'offed' by the Imperial Marshal! Broke and powerless, Sophie also had to support a man who'd been innocently dragged into the original owner's mess. She had no choice but to hustle. She started live streaming, became a masked singer, and held concerts. At first, netizens were scornful: 【Tsk, how good can she possibly sound?】 Later, the netizens were forced to eat their words. 【Damn, that's so good I'm on my knees!】 【What the hell, the violent episode of my Disorder Period has actually been soothed?!】 【The toxins in my Spiritual Sea have actually been eliminated!】 Her live streams went viral, the masked singer became a huge sensation, and tickets for her concerts were snapped up across The Galaxy.
