Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Well translated novel with an interesting time period and concept. It doesn’t have the shounen action that some historical novels have, but instead portrays a more mundane, day to day life. Many references to Impressionist era France / Victorian era England. Thank you for the translation, translator. Looking forward to additional chapters.

I made the updating stability 1 star cause I wanted more. The author writes like a little Victorian gay boy, but perhaps that is why this story is interesting. I barely know much about the main plot, which is why I want to read more. Keep it up, little gay victorian boy writer.

Boss, she's a top-notch mystic cultivator.

Feng City had a top-notch big shot who was good at accumulating virtue and doing good deeds. He specialized in dealing with unscientific problems. "Do you think this is scientific? If it's not scientific, just look for me." "What? You don't believe me?" Bai Ran took out a bottle of cow's tears."It's time for you to receive the baptism of an unscientific education." -- The thousand-year-old contracted malicious spirit that was guarding her was a loyal dog."How dare you hurt me, Ran Ran? Your crime is unforgivable!" "If you weren't here, I'd believe you if you said it was an accident." I don't believe it when I see you." "You're the demon! Your entire family is demons!" the divine beast roared angrily in its childish voice. I'm a divine beast, a divine beast!" Bai Ran smiled and waved her hand."I'm not a capable person. I'm at most a big shot." -- Main storyline + chain side story. There was a guarantee that he would write articles from time to time. The author's copywriting is useless.

I became an immortal by touching corpses

This was a world where immortals, fiendish demons, and warriors coexisted. At the same time, this was also a world where the strong preyed on the weak. High-level cultivators treated low-level cultivators like ants. Qin Chuan had transmigrated and obtained a corpse looting system by accident. As long as he touched the corpse, the system would be able to restore the cultivation techniques that the deceased had cultivated or the pills that they had taken when they were alive. "Ding! You have obtained a green item, Qi Refinement Technique!" "Ding! Obtained blue item, Foundation Establishment Pill!" "Ding! Obtained purple item, Ethereal Sword Technique!" "Ding! Obtained orange item, Purple Cloud Thunderstorm Sword Technique!"

As an evil god, how did I become a savior?

The apocalypse had arrived, and the world had collapsed. Other than zombies, there were also strange monsters filling the ruins. Gu Cheng, who was originally in despair, suddenly had an Evil God Acting Game on his phone. What surprised Gu Cheng even more was that after satisfying the believer's wish, the sacrifice he received actually appeared in front of him. From then on, the barrier between the two worlds was broken. The flesh of ferocious beasts that increased strength, the heavenly and earthly treasures that increased strength, and the cursed items with different abilities appeared in front of Gu Cheng through the sacrifice. The apocalypse was no longer scary. Through the blessing, the believers were given fresh water, thick quilts, and special medicine. The residents of the game who were originally shrouded in darkness were rekindled with a desire for light. A few years later, Gu Cheng's faith had spread throughout the entire game continent. All the believers were grateful to God. Because of him, they could live a peaceful life today… Only then did Gu Cheng realize it. He could not help but mutter, " As an evil god, how did I become a savior?"

He chose to give the system a kick and ask Chu Yuan,"Are you going to stick your butt out and hide until the end, or do you want to rise up and kill gods and destroy Buddha?"
