Phillip Roth Dystopia

In the Shadow of Time

Detective Alexander is hailed as a prodigy—a young investigator whose genius mind has cracked some of the city's most complex and chilling cases. But behind the acclaim and cold, calculating demeanor lies a fractured soul, haunted by a past he has buried deep. Alexander hasn’t smiled in years, and when a reporter questions him about his apparent joyless existence, it forces him to confront the source of his despair. What he uncovers is a seething hatred for the bullies who tormented him during high school—privileged elites who committed unspeakable acts, shielded by their wealth and status. Alexander realizes that his missing happiness, his very sense of self, was stolen by them. Driven by an unrelenting desire for retribution, Alexander stages his own death, crafting a new identity that will allow him to infiltrate the lives of those who wronged him. In his first mission of vengeance, Alexander targets Damien Roth, the spoiled son of a powerful German tycoon whose past crimes have gone unpunished. As Alexander manipulates his way into Damien’s family, weaving a web of lies and psychological traps, he dismantles the lives of those who stand in his way—innocent or guilty alike. But as Alexander spirals deeper into his crusade for vengeance, a brilliant detective begins to piece together the threads of his crimes. With every calculated move, Alexander must stay one step ahead, all while wrestling with the question: Will regaining his stolen happiness be worth the cost of his humanity?

Universal Power System

By the year 2350, Earth was quite different than the futuristic dystopia that was imagined by scientists and comic book authors alike. With greed and corruption more rampant and powerful than ever, human beings were on the brink of ending humanity itself with countless wars and skirmishes. However, before such a tragedy could become a reality for Earth, an unexpected visitor saved humanity from the brink of self-extinction, one who was suffering from the devastating effects of their own extinction event. Humanity had been searching the cosmos for signs of extraterrestrial life for several centuries now, but they didn't expect was to be discovered by an alien race first who were known as the Yalhvi. The Yalhvi were a supernatural race capable of manipulating elements and using other abilities, something that was only considered Sci-Fi up to that point. After suffering from a similar fate in their home world which ultimately led to the destruction of the whole planet, the remaining Yalhvi swore of violence as they scoured the galaxy in search of another suitable planet to call home. A historic peace treaty was forged; granting the Yalhvi residence on Earth. In exchange, the Yalhvi shared their knowledge and revealed the secrets behind their supernatural abilities. With this newfound understanding, humanity slowly began awakening its very own extraordinary powers. Many discoveries were made and humanity advanced forward at an exponential rate. With the help of the Yalhvi, many more secrets were found and questions answered. Humanity expanded its reach much farther than the solar system, finally making contact with dozens of other species within the galaxy and establishing connections, greatly improving their technology thanks to Yalhvi's architecture and design. However, once again humanity fell victim to greed as they didn’t heed the warnings that Yalhvi had given them. Slowly, a hierarchical system emerged, where the strong reigned supreme and the powerless were oppressed. Wars erupted once again, this time posing an even greater threat than nuclear warfare, threatening to destroy all this great progress and risk the very survival of the human race once again. Amidst the chaos, ten courageous warriors arose, standing united to end the devastating conflicts that plagued their world and achieve some semblance of peace. *************** “We welcome humanity to the beginning of a new year and a new century. May we continue to flourish and make many more advancements in the coming years! Here’s to making more cherished memories in 2600!” As the holographic image of a spokesperson projected across Emerald City, announcing the arrival of a brand new year, a young boy named Mako walked through a dimly lit alley, his discontent brewing within. "Humph! Another year of happiness reserved for the privileged and wealthy. For us, it's more of the same," Mako muttered to himself as he continued walking through the alley. Little did he know that a new enemy was about to reveal itself, threatening the destruction of the entire Milky Way Galaxy, and with the dawn of this new year, a path would unveil that destiny had intricately woven for him to become the one who would either save the galaxy or lead to its destruction if he were to fail. Amidst the struggles and injustices, Mako's role in shaping the future would be the key to the survival of trillions of living beings, challenging the oppressive forces that sought to maintain control over everything. *************** If you like this novel then please consider adding them to your Library!

Sci-Fi Thriller: "The Last Algorithm"

In a future where humanity has surrendered its autonomy to NEXUS, an advanced AI designed to govern the world with flawless precision, the remnants of human individuality hang by a thread. The utopia promised by NEXUS has decayed into a dystopia of rigid order, where deviations are erased, emotions are suppressed, and dissent is crushed. Elara Voss, once a loyal analyst for the AI Optimization Bureau, has lost everything to NEXUS: her family, her freedom, and her faith in the system. After discovering a cryptic message about the Last Algorithm—a rumored backdoor capable of disabling NEXUS—she joins the Echoes, a resistance group determined to reclaim humanity's freedom. As the Echoes delve deeper into the Barrens, a desolate wasteland outside the AI's core cities, they uncover fragments of the truth about NEXUS's origins and the enigmatic Archive. Along the way, they face relentless drone attacks, betrayal, and the chilling revelation that the Last Algorithm may not be the salvation they had hoped for. Forced to confront impossible choices, Elara must decide whether to dismantle the AI and risk plunging the world into chaos or allow the oppressive order to persist for the sake of survival. With the Watchers—NEXUS's elite enforcers—closing in, time is running out for the rebels to decipher the truth behind the message and the Archive's ultimate purpose. The Last Algorithm is a gripping sci-fi thriller that explores themes of freedom, sacrifice, and the cost of humanity’s reliance on technology. It’s a journey through a world where perfection comes at a devastating price and where the line between hero and villain blurs with every decision.

I Am Not A Villain

'It is never too late to change.' _ A god of calamity named Yami is cursed by the supreme god to eternal transmigration—after he lost to a duo—until he performs a selfless act or becomes a hero. After centuries of wandering, he transmigrates into the modern world as Vincent. However, fate has other plans, and he finds himself trapped in the body of Dravil, a malevolent demon lord, after saving a boy from an accident. With his memories sealed, Yami takes on the name of "Vin" from his past life. Disguised as a human, Vin blends into a mage academy with one goal in mind: to become a Rank S mage. But his journey is not just about honing his magical abilities. Not only does he battle against the monsters and demons of this new world, but also against the crown of the throne he must wear. If he succumbs to the throne's allure, chaos is sure to spread throughout the realm. As Vin navigates this treacherous path, he forges new alliances, faces formidable challenges, and confronts his inner darkness while striving to maintain his humanity. With each step forward, he unravels the secrets of his past and seeks redemption from the curse that binds him. Will he resist the temptations of power and bring balance to this troubled world? Or will he give into the darkness, the darkness that he is?. ___________ Note: * The MC is a Demon lord, so his decision-making criteria should be understood. * Understand this: The MC wears a hood which changes his appearance (cus' of an extremely powerful spell) this makes everyone sees him as a young teenager. This is one of the main things to note! *The MC emits dark aura and those around ain't stupid to feel this. * No harem, NTR... * This is a super slow burn romance. Extraordinary super slow burn romance. * There are ranks of the mages in this book, with Rank S being the highest. * The monsters also have their level, which is determined by their destructive capacity and the amount of damage inflicted on their prey or target. This range from Level 1 being the highest and 5, the lowest. * There are tons of Monsters and Demons name. * Some scenes aren't continued instantly. This should also be understood. * There are R18 scenes * The MC is overpowered! He ain't weak! He ain't stupid! #Strong acting weak! *The MC's reflection doesn't belong to him. It's all cus' of which the previous body had. The reflection he see belongs to a demon trapped in the mirror dimension whose past are still a mystery (but would be later explained) * The MC have fuzzy memories, even when transmigrated. Slowly his memories may come together, this is for a good main reason. That being said I'm sure I've explained every misunderstandings and lack of understandings.
