Jonathan Stroud Bartimaeus Trilogy

A Love Beyond The Horizon

In the glittering world of 19th-century high society, where marriage is a strategic affair and personal desires are secondary to duty, Eleanor Hawthorne stands at the precipice of her future. Beautiful, poised, and well-bred, she is the epitome of a noblewoman, bound by the expectations of her family and society to marry well. Her every step is carefully calculated, her every decision weighed against the demands of propriety. But beneath her composed exterior, Eleanor feels trapped by a life that values social standing over personal happiness. At a grand winter ball, as Eleanor dances with suitor after suitor, her world shifts when she shares an unexpected, electric waltz with Jonathan Ashford, a mysterious and charismatic man with a past that doesn't fit the mold of the elite around her. Jonathan, a man who has seen the world beyond the gilded cages of aristocracy, awakens something in Eleanor that she has long buried: a longing for freedom, passion, and the possibility of a life that is her own. As the ball unfolds, Eleanor is forced to confront the reality of her situation—her well-meaning but controlling Aunt Agatha, who pressures her to marry for social standing; the wealthy but emotionally distant Lord Hargrave, who sees her as a perfect match in name, if not in heart; and the expectations of a society that demands conformity. Yet, it is Jonathan’s presence—his quiet defiance of societal norms and his deep connection to Eleanor—that challenges her to reconsider the life that has been laid out for her. Torn between her duty to her family and the growing feelings for Jonathan, Eleanor embarks on a journey of self-discovery. She must navigate the treacherous waters of love, duty, and desire while deciding what kind of woman, and what kind of life, she truly wants. In The Winter Waltz, the dance of love is more than a step to be mastered—it is a risk, a choice, and a chance to break free from a world that demands perfection in exchange for happiness.

Eternal Flame trilogy (my original work)

"I don't believe you." I answer him calmly, trying to convince him that I know that he was just spewing bullshit to make me go crazy, that this is all just a sad pathetic joke. This can't be true. "In fact, I don't believe anything you've said to me." I say more to try to convince myself, although I'm starting to question everything, but he doesn't need to know that. He just smirks, looks too proud of himself and begin to walks backward, away from me. "You don't have to believe me, darling. You'll see for yourself, soon. Very soon." It sounds much like a promise of the unknown future that they stop me on my track. Goosebumps spread all over my hands and the back of my neck. A bad premonition clouds my my heart. No, wait. What's with him? Does he think that he is a fortune teller too, now? Am I supposed to believe his words, no question asked? The fact that I'm considering any of his words are just enough prove that I'm indeed going insane. No, he is insane. And maybe, I'm a tad bit desperate to find answers to all of this mess that's my life these past few weeks. And he's taking advantage of it, I'm not sure how he knows but I'm pretty annoyed that he could sways me easily like this. I need to stay the hell away from this nuisance. Just as I'm about to turn around and forget what he says, he decides to say something that I will remember long after my journey begins. "In fact, never believe in anyone, Elena. Not even The One's above." are the last word he says before he turn around and completely disappear from my sight. His words leave me puzzled and speechless. I don't know what to think anymore. All of this new information only further my confusion as it is. If any of what he says turn out to be true then what's meaning of this? I don't know anything anymore. Only one thought clouding my mind. What in the world is going on?

Les Cinq Ombres de l'Évolution"

Dans un futur lointain, la Terre a atteint un sommet technologique sans précédent. Cependant, ce progrès effréné a entraîné une mutation chez les êtres vivants, leur permettant de capter et de manipuler l'énergie atomique dégagée par les molécules et les atomes des rayons solaires. Cette mutation, surnommée "L'Essence", confère à certains individus des pouvoirs spirituels et physiques inouïs. Les animaux, quant à eux, ont évolué bien plus rapidement que les humains, devenant des créatures d'une puissance dévastatrice. L'humanité, dans sa lutte pour la survie, est forcée de s'affronter à ces bêtes monstrueuses. Mais lorsqu'un groupe d'humains découvre que certaines de ces créatures possèdent un pouvoir spirituel unique, l'humanité réalise qu'elles peuvent être utilisées comme alliées dans la maîtrise de l'Essence. Au fil des siècles, un homme, le premier Empereur, parvient à rassembler les peuples sous une même bannière et à instaurer un empire unifié. Grâce à son pouvoir spirituel sans égal, il surmonte tous les obstacles et atteint un niveau de pouvoir mythique. 500 ans après son règne, l'empire est à son apogée, mais l'équilibre est fragile. Un jeune roturier, Kael, issu d’une famille modeste, découvre qu’il est lié à l'une des cinq créatures spirituelles dotées de conscience qui veillent sur l'équilibre de ce monde. Alors qu’il s’élève dans les rangs de l’empire, il doit maîtriser l’Essence et découvrir son véritable pouvoir. Son destin le mènera à défier les plus puissants adversaires, y compris l’actuel Empereur, et à découvrir la vérité derrière les anciennes prophéties. Les cinq bêtes spirituelles, conscientes et puissantes, jouent un rôle central : chacune représente un aspect fondamental de l’univers, avec des pouvoirs allant du niveau atomique au niveau solaire. Ces créatures, bien que vénérées et craintes, se battent entre elles pour déterminer lequel d’entre elles possèdera la clé ultime du pouvoir divin. Dans cette guerre pour l'avenir de la Terre, Kael devra faire face à des dilemmes moraux, des alliances incertaines, et un ennemi qui, bien plus proche qu'il ne le pense, le guidera vers un choix fatal. Qui, de lui ou de l'empereur, deviendra le nouveau souverain divin ?
