GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions known. Thank you.

Sovereign of the Stars

General Alexander War, a legendary tactician and hero of Arkedia, thought his story ended with the slow march of age. Yet death was only the beginning. Reborn into an unfamiliar world as an 18-year-old orphan, Alexander awakens in a society ruled by a merciless System. This omnipotent force governs every aspect of life, rewarding labor with survival and punishing failure with erasure. In this cold, efficient civilization, compliance is survival. Overseers patrol the streets, ensuring strict adherence to the System’s rules. The people are bound by fear, their lives reduced to a series of tasks and transactions, while those who falter vanish without a trace. It’s a world where humanity has traded freedom for order, and rebellion is unthinkable. But Alexander is no ordinary man. With the mind of a seasoned general and the soul of a leader who once commanded armies, he begins to see the cracks beneath the System’s perfection. Determined to forge his own path, he quietly observes, learns, and plans. As he navigates the shadows of this unforgiving world, Alexander discovers a deeper purpose: not just survival, but the chance to defy the System itself. A war unlike any he has fought before awaits him not against armies, but against the very foundations of control. In a world that demands submission, Alexander will rise. His journey is not just one of survival but of rebellion, freedom, and ultimately, transcendence. The battlefield has changed, but his resolve remains unbroken. This time, he fights not for a nation, but for the future itself.

Each level, from the dark slums of the Ankles to the sunlit Ribcage, reflects a starkly different way of life. For Jack, living and working in the Ribcage is a dream come true—a far cry from the harsh Ankles where he grew up. Jack spends his days gathering rare ingredients and delivering potions, always eager to impress the Alchemist and learn more about her craft. But during a routine trip to the Ankles, he finds the area eerily empty and is stopped by soldiers searching for a dangerous fugitive.

Strange phenomena are appearing in the lower levels, and whispers of rebellion are rising from the shadows. Jack must figure out the truth behind the mysterious object, the soldiers’ mission, and how it all connects to Arcfall’s future. As the city faces an uncertain fate, Jack is forced to choose: stay safe and keep his place in the Ribcage, or risk everything to protect the people and the city he loves.

The Alchemist’s Son

His estranged grandfather, a reclusive alchemist, has passed away, leaving Damian his secluded estate in the countryside. Intrigued, and with little to lose, Damian decides to visit the property, only to discover that his grandfather’s legacy is far more complex than he imagined. At the heart of the mansion is an ancient, hidden laboratory filled with cryptic notes and strange, alchemical equipment. Damian quickly learns that his grandfather was part of a secretive alchemical order dedicated to uncovering the Philosopher's Stone. His grandfather had been on the verge of a breakthrough—one that involved transmutation of not just metal, but reality itself. As Damian delves deeper into his grandfather's research, he starts experiencing strange occurrences. Time warps. Shadows move on their own.

To protect his life and the legacy of his family, Damian must master the forbidden knowledge of alchemy before it consumes him.

However, every step he takes closer to mastering alchemy brings him closer to a dangerous truth: that some knowledge was never meant to be found.

Twisting Fate Amongst the Stars

Hrefna grew up like many who were descended from the settlers of Expeditionary Fleet Gullstjarna; taught how to hunt, to fight, and most importantly... how to survive. Like many of her brothers and sisters, Hrefna eventually left her home world and joined with the Einherjar, the Gullstjarna Fleet's branch of Humanity's vast military; she rose through the ranks to become an accomplished sniper and expert mech pilot. For years she served in the Vel Risi Company of the Einherjar, and now she finds herself on the most recent front against the nearly endless swarms of the Chukanid, a race of ravenous aliens that think of nothing besides feasting upon anything composed of biological components, but it is here that her fate begins to zip around the countless stars of the universe. --- This will be a book with action, romance, character development and an equal amount of goofiness to seriousness. Characters will be as dynamic as I can possibly make them (within reason, obviously) and the interactions will be a primary focus of this book. The other will be the action, from close range gunfights to long ranged shootouts with normal guns, all the way to space battles fought with ships and mechs; aliens of all kind and of all sentient reasoning will fight with or against the protagonist, and I want to explore all sorts of things. This will also be a FUTA FMC, meaning Hrefna... has a penis despite being a woman; if you don't like that, please don't read. This will also have both 'giving' and 'taking' on her part, and there will be smut within the story, ranging from the lewdness of handholding to the wildest things you can imagine in a sci-fi book. The hope is roughly 500 chapters before reaching some kind of conclusion, with each chapter being 1-1.5k words in length; it will eventually go premium because... I need money, but I will leave the first ~50 chapters free to get people hooked and figure out if this is worth fastpasses or money. I hope you all enjoy this, and go check out my other books by viewing my profile; everything I write is FUTA though, just as a heads up, so don't go looking for something else...
