Kingsley Amis The Golden Age Of Science

Emily Bright is a reserved medical laboratory scientist with a peculiar fascination for the microscopic world of body fluids. Her life is a monochrome routine of lab work and lonely evenings spent admiring art she believes she'll never create. Emily is the embodiment of precision, control, and logic, qualities that render her a perpetual wallflower. Dominic Pierreson, known as "The God of Art," is a once-revered artist teetering on the brink of retirement. Praised as the 21st century’s greatest creative genius, Dominic’s glory days seem behind him, with no spark left to fuel his next masterpiece. Disillusioned and desperate, he meets Emily by chance at an art gallery, and in her quiet brilliance, he finds an unexpected muse. Dominic's world bursts into vibrant color as he obsessively captures Emily’s essence in every medium imaginable: photographs, sculptures, paintings, and even a bestselling play. His works featuring Emily become priceless treasures, solidifying his place in history. But as his obsession grows, so does his love for her, a love Emily struggles to comprehend or reciprocate. Caught between the worlds of art and science, Emily begins to question everything she thought she knew about herself. As Dominic’s fame skyrockets and their relationship deepens, the lines blur between inspiration, obsession, and love. In a whirlwind of passion, fame, and self-discovery, Emily must decide: Can she embrace the chaos of Dominic’s world, or will she retreat to the safety of her own? The Art and Science of Mad Attraction is a sweeping tale of ambition, obsession, and the unpredictable nature of love, where logic meets creativity and two contrasting souls find themselves inexplicably drawn together.

The stark-naked, handsome, young man looked intently at a winged reptile creeping in front of him, His lips, closed tight since setting foot in this new realm, began to move as words echoed in the shadowy realm of awareness. "It has been determined that the leaders of the plan and all related individuals are dead, communication with Earth has been completely severed. Transitioning to autonomous operation mode. Updating log-in name to the fully planned 'Li Lin'. Given the current situation, autonomous task B4 is selected."

Oliver and the rest of his classmates were chosen by the system and thrust into a chaotic world where everyone would transform into nascent gods. Alongside countless indigenous deities of this primal realm, they would fight, kill, and grow. This was the dawn of the universe, the birthplace of all myths, an era before the creator god Aether had even begun to mold the world. The sky, the sea, the land, ordinary life? None of it existed yet. Zeus, Odin, Eve—all the gods you’ve ever heard of—were still infants, or not even born. But this place was far from safe. Aether’s act of creation, the twilight of the gods, the war between Titans and dragons—these cataclysms would claim the lives of ninety-nine percent of all deities. Oliver and his peers had no intention of being part of that doomed majority. To survive, they had to become stronger! While the other students received starting items graded merely A or B, Oliver—thanks to a glitch in the system—obtained an SSS-tier artifact: The Book of the Chaos Era! With it, he would devour everything, ascend to unimaginable heights, and forge his own destiny. His legend would begin with countless transformations, yet through them all, his presence would remain unshakable. Some would come to call him the world-creating serpent—his eyes opening to summon day, closing to usher in night. At the end of the world, those who glimpsed him would revere him as the serpent that encircles the universe—Jörmungandr. From the depths of hell, others would gaze upon him and name him Satan. He was the spark that ignited the Golden Dynasty, a terror to mortals and gods alike, a herald of chaos, and the harbinger of eternity.

Along the way, he faces powerful enemies, gathers allies, and plunges into brutal conflicts, proving to the world that the heir of the Golden Dragons has returned… and this time, he will show no mercy.
