Summary
He’s a runaway alchemist with a talent for trouble. She’s a sword-swinging snakewoman with no time for nonsense. Naturally, they decide to steal a ship together.
Paracelsus is on the run from a failed revolution, a rigged court-martial, and most of his responsibilities. Serpacinno is the last of her people, and she’s had it up to here with dramatic men and cursed swords. After a chance encounter and a few questionable decisions, the two form a reluctant alliance in search of Kósmeidí, a mythical blade scattered across the six great rings of the world.
Sailing a stolen ship with a crew of outcasts, they’ll dodge marines, con casinos, battle airborne lawmen, and maybe - maybe - start to trust each other. Or stab each other. It’s a toss-up.
Ring World is a high-magic, high-chaos fantasy adventure about found family, legendary treasure, and the fine art of barely scraping by. Come aboard - just don't ask who's actually in charge.

Summary
Ruth is a spunky, headstrong, and a little problematic teenage girl in the first century, and the last year for her has been like walking through Hades.
First, she woke up one day and her hand went numb, and has NEVER GOTTEN UN-NUMB! Well, there goes her one hobby of sketching! Yippee! Then, her abba made her and this random old man get BETHROTHED! Ruth can't take it anymore- she just has to run away. (and steal her dowry, but that's a different story.)
Then, she meets this Rabbi, and He changes her life. Which is weird, because up until five seconds ago she thought God hated her. Eh, might as well go along with this group of slightly strange adults and see what happens, right?
And oh boy, a LOT happens.
(In other words, the entirety (hopefully!) of the Chosen series from the perspective of a teenager.) -

Everything's going great, and now, her greatest desire is to get better for good. And get lots and lots of books, of course.
And that's when she meets him.

Summary
Kathani and Anthony were never fated to be. Charlotte, the divine being who handed fate her strings, did not expect the gods to defy her, to bite their thumb at fate, and let themselves fall from the heavens for the sake of that great prize they called love.
From forbidden lovers in Ancient Egypt to playing detective in the 1950s; risking it all in the Regency, Shakespearean sword fights, and starting an 80s sex cult - they find each other in every lifetime.
As it turns out, there is no corner of the earth far away enough to keep them from falling in love.(for the Kanthony Book Club's 'a mixtape through the years')

Summary
Friedrich Scholz enlisted in the Prussian Medical Corps to make a difference and save lives, even if his father protested at his decision. Why stay in a small town where the worst that would happen would be an accident in the woods? On the battlefield, thousands may die simply because there wasn't enough men to help the wounded.
What he didn't know was that he was signing up to die in a war not against the French or even his fellow human, but demons from hell who ate the flesh off their bones and spread their pestilence to others. Friedrich was ready to save lives, but not take them. What shall he do when the only thing that will save someone is to kill something that looks exactly like a human? Something that looks exactly like someone he once loved? Does he have what it takes to live for himself or will he always be caught up in trying to live for others? Only time will tell if Hell on Earth will forge him into something tough and resilient, or cast him into something brittle and fragile.

Summary
This is a direct continuation of the Probity series. Please read the prolog and part 1 before continuing. The part 2 got too big and it started timing out when I tried to post another chapter. I've been writing this off and on since the beginning of the pandemic. I'm about 3/4 of the way to catching up to where I'm still writing. In retrospect, I'm amazed at how much I actually wrote. I hope you are enjoying it.

Mas tensões políticas no país tornam inevitável que ela tome uma posição, e isso finalmente define seu rumo. Gendry, por sua vez, sempre teve apenas a opção de estar no lado dos fracos, e reconhece uma aliada quando vê uma, embora seu lema se sustente: nunca confie em nobres.
