Pulling The Tide

The Toy Maker: The Blood of the Founders

In a world shaped by gods among mortals, the Founding Family reigns supreme—beings of unfathomable power, capable of creation itself. At their peak stand Keth, Zillah, Maingan, Rex, and Mariah—warriors who could rival the strongest beings across existence. But absolute power is never without consequence. Centuries have passed since the once-mighty empire began to fracture. Rex’s descendants, weaker than their forebears due to human blood, seek forbidden ways to reclaim their lost strength. Some turn to dark rituals, while others create beings from objects, unaware that these creations will soon develop wills of their own. As rebellion brews within the nation built from Rex’s bloodline, a far greater shadow looms—Mariah’s four lost children, entities she created long ago, now return with their own ambitions. Meanwhile, Keth, imprisoned for 700 years, has become something beyond human comprehension, his return a slow-burning inevitability. Zillah, once living among men, carries secrets that could alter fate itself. And Queen Spadina, the enigmatic force working in the shadows, remains an unsolved mystery, her true power yet to be revealed. Yet, amid all the chaos, one force remains unknown—Mariah’s unborn child. Held within her for 700 years, his very existence defies time itself. A being neither fully formed nor yet awakened, he is the only one who may stand against the storm that looms over them all. But will he embrace his role in destiny, or will he too be consumed by the war of gods?

Vile Dominion

In a world where the heavens themselves weave intricate schemes, Li Gang is reborn into the brutal cultivation realm of the Divine Spirit World. Here, power is absolute, and the strongest warriors and immortals manipulate fate, treating mortals and weaker cultivators as mere pawns in their grand designs. Armed with the memories of his past life and a mind sharper than any blade, Li Gang quickly realizes that raw strength alone is not enough to survive. Every sect, clan, and faction hides venomous plots, and even disciples are mere tools for their masters' ambitions. The path to power is paved with betrayal, deception, and blood. But Li Gang is no ordinary pawn. With unparalleled intellect and an unwavering will, he begins to turn the tide—navigating deadly conspiracies, outwitting ancient masterminds, and twisting their own schemes against them. Whether through manipulation, ruthless strategy, or sheer defiance, he refuses to be controlled. Yet, the deeper he delves into the world's secrets, the more terrifying the truth becomes. The so-called "Immortals" are not as invincible as they claim. They, too, are caught in a game far greater than he ever imagined. The true masterminds lurk in the shadows, pulling the strings of even the highest cultivators. To break free, Li Gang must not only rise to power but shatter the very foundations of this world’s control. Can he outscheme the schemers and become the ultimate ruler, or will he, too, fall victim to the grand design? In a world of lies, only the sharpest mind reigns supreme. (Some grammatical errors at the beginning chapters. It is fixed later on!)

Silent Tide

This novel tells the story of two university students and their survival journey after a sudden zombie crisis erupts in Bristol, England. The protagonists, Jack and Emma, are a couple at the University of Bristol who have been dating for four years. Jack is a philosophy student with ADHD who loves outdoor activities and radio communications. Emma is a computer science genius with an introverted personality and exceptional programming and hacking skills. The story begins when Jack captures secret military communications with his modified radio equipment, codenamed "Silent Wave," while Emma's data analysis system detects abnormal hospital data. They witness the first zombie attack through Emma's electric car monitoring system and realize the city is facing a serious crisis. The zombie virus originated from a military experiment leak at Bristol Port and rapidly spread throughout the city. The government and military publicly claim it's a "chemical leak" but quickly deploy large numbers of troops to implement lockdown and "cleansing" operations. As the situation deteriorates, the government cuts off Bristol's electricity, water, and communications, but Emma gathers information through hacking and discovers the military's plan for a destructive strike codenamed "Scorched Earth." Facing the city's collapse, Jack and Emma decide to escape. They abandon using a motorcycle because roads are blocked by numerous abandoned vehicles, opting instead to travel on foot through the perilous city. Along the way, they encounter infected attackers, dangerous survivors, and witness the complete breakdown of urban order. Eventually, they successfully reach the observation tower at Clifton Cliff, from where they witness the military's devastating midnight bombing of Bristol, reducing the entire city to ashes in an attempt to control the infection. Faced with this disaster, Jack and Emma decide to head toward Wales in search of a safer refuge. The story's ending suggests that despite the government's extreme measures, the real threat—the "Silent Wave Zero Subject"—has already left Bristol under military escort and is en route to an unknown destination, indicating the crisis is far from over. The novel portrays society's rapid collapse in the face of disaster through a personal perspective, as well as human survival instincts and moral struggles in desperate situations. Jack and Emma's professional skills and psychological resilience are tested during the crisis, while their romantic relationship becomes a crucial force supporting them through the catastrophe.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The Saintess, The Villainess, and The Enchantress

In the heart of a vast and fertile land, nestled amidst rolling hills and lush meadows, stood the grand mansion of the De Lolce family. This stately home belonged to Duke Castel and Duchess Aerwyna, a couple whose reputation preceded them throughout the entire nation of Philippeldephia. Duke Castel was celebrated far and wide as the most brilliant scientist in the country, his mind teeming with discoveries that pushed the boundaries of what was possible. In contrast, Duchess Aerwyna was renowned for her culinary prowess, her dishes and baked goods the very definition of perfection, sought after by the elite of the land. Three years into their blissful marriage, their joy knew no bounds when Aerwyna gave birth to triplets. Yet, their happiness was cruelly snatched away when the babies, too weak to survive, passed away shortly after entering the world. The grief was unbearable, and neither Castel nor Aerwyna could reconcile with the tragedy that had befallen them. The halls of their mansion, once filled with dreams of a bright future, were now heavy with sorrow. But Duke Castel, a man driven by the relentless pursuit of knowledge, refused to accept fate’s verdict. One fateful night, he conceived a daring experiment—one that could defy the natural order and bring their children back from the brink of death. In the dim glow of his laboratory, surrounded by beakers and vials of mysterious substances, he worked tirelessly, driven by a desperate hope. Finally, the moment arrived. Castel was on the verge of success, his hands trembling with a mix of fear and anticipation. But in a single, fateful moment, as he reached for the final component, his hand accidentally knocked over a set of strange chemicals. The colorful liquids spilled across the lab table, seeping into the lifeless bodies of the three infants. In an instant, something extraordinary began to happen. The triplets, instead of merely returning to life, started to change. Their small forms absorbed the spilled concoction, and they became something... different. The experiment had gone awry, and the results were beyond anything Castel could have predicted. From that night onward, the De Lolce mansion became the stage for a series of unexpected events, as the once-ordinary lives of Castel and Aerwyna took a turn toward the extraordinary—all because of a single, accidental spill that altered the course of their family’s destiny. Note: This is more like a long script rather than a novel type.
