For twenty years the kingdoms of Prydyn, Dumnonia and Dalriada have prospered in peace under the guidance of their High King Maelgwn of Gwynedd, and his good Queen, Tory.

But when the High King is stricken with madness and a mysterious plague, Britain is set to be thrown into the chaos of yesteryear. Tory aspires to seek the advice of an advanced civilisation that thrived long before recorded history, where men of great learning and miracles were abundant.

The women of Otherworld agree to aid Tory to make her passage back through time. But once in Atlantis, Tory must use her own devices to find the cure she seeks and a way to return to her loved ones in the Dark Ages.

Ryan and Erica have lived in their old Victorian house long enough to stop questioning its creaks, cold spots, and half-forgotten corners—until one night, a hidden panel in a closet wall refuses to stay hidden. Inside is a bundle of strange clothing…and a jeweled sword that doesn’t belong to any world they recognize. The moment they touch it, reality breaks. In a flash of blinding light, the twins are ripped from upstate New York and thrown into a land of towering forests, fractured kingdoms, and old songs that sound uncomfortably like prophecies.

Welcome to Aulmagne, where strangers stare as if the twins are ghosts made flesh, where borders are drawn in blood, and where history itself has been weaponized. A ruthless ruler known as the Chancellor tightens his grip through fear, censorship, and the brutal erasure of anything that might threaten his reign. And the sword in Ryan’s hands, the legendary Blade of Baz, is more than a weapon. It’s a symbol of rebellion, a relic of a forgotten line, and a beacon that calls both allies and assassins.

As pursuers close in and trust becomes a gamble, Ryan and Erica must navigate a world that insists they matter…even if they don’t yet know why. Because in a place built on legend, the most dangerous thing they can do is survive long enough to be recognized.

In the tradition of classic “crossing-over” fantasies—readers may think of C.S. Lewis’s Narnia for its premise of stepping from the familiar into the fantastical—Blade of Baz blends adventure with questions about identity, belonging, and what it means to inherit a story you didn’t ask for. The tone is accessible and teen-friendly, with elements of quest, court, and faction tension, as well as mythic artifacts, making it a good fit for readers who enjoy portal fantasies, sibling-led adventures, and secondary-world settings with Celtic-influenced names and lore.

Blade of Baz was originally published as a serial NFT collection on the Cardano blockchain in 2023. All profits from book sales will support the Plomin Scholarship Fund.

Tressa arrives in New York after years in the Yezidee temple and the United States Government quickly pulls her into a battle against a secret cult because she understands their sorcery and their methods of psychic assassination. The novel keeps the pace high as Chambers pits her against Prince Sanang and his conspirators, connecting exotic locations, forbidden rituals, secret societies and a conflict over human souls that moves across both continents and consciousness.

Season One is a limited-edition auditory odyssey told across eleven chapters, each rendered as a grand orchestral epic movement of word and song. The opening movements introduce themes of prophecy and corruption, with dark brass and low strings embodying Dog Vader’s hunger for power, while soaring violins and choral motifs echo the Judi Dogs’ pursuit of balance in the Force of Fur. The mid-symphony movements shift between clashing tonalities—electronic pulses for the MecaTribe’s technological prowess, martial percussion for the rise of the DoberMen, and dissonant chimes for betrayal.

As the narrative darkens, the HellHoundian Goliath’s battle motif crashes in waves of timpani and distorted horns, only to be fractured by moments of silence, symbolizing the inner turmoil of R2Dog2’s corrupted subroutines. The symphony’s climax builds through seismic crescendos as Alpha Lupus’s moon collapses into a singularity, while frantic woodwinds and wailing strings carry the urgency of the Resistance’s impossible choice: pursue the DogStar of Death or save the Malmutians. The finale resolves into a haunting, suspended chord—neither triumph nor defeat—representing mercy’s victory but leaving the shadow of Massive Mastiff’s empire unresolved.

More than a soundtrack, it is a living allegory in sound: a season of sacrifice and survival scored across the vast canvas of the Metaverse, where every note reminds the listener that this was not the end, only the beginning.

In The Book of Wonder, Lord Dunsany presents a collection of short stories that defy convention, transporting readers into strange lands where gods walk among mortals and adventure waits beyond the ordinary.

Dunsany’s mastery of atmosphere and tone transforms each page into a gateway to the unknown, making The Book of Wonder both timeless and otherworldly.

“Apotheosis” by Joseph Eleam and Tim Canada, the authors who wrote “The Wizard Tim,” is a chilling dystopian sci-fi horror novel set in a crumbling Earth ravaged by environmental collapse and societal decay. In this grim world, a nameless scavenger ekes out a miserable existence until he stumbles upon a mysterious blood ritual in an abandoned video game studio, its here he encounters a pure white chinchilla named Mary. This seemingly innocuous creature grants him improved health, wealth, and vitality—but at a terrifying price. As blackouts plague him and his life inexplicably improves, he uncovers Mary’s telepathic influence and demonic origins, pulling him into a virtual reality game that blurs into a nightmarish alternate dimension.

Transported to a fantastical underground realm inspired by Mesoamerican mythology, the protagonist navigates a brutal war between benevolent guinea pigs and malevolent chinchillas worshiping dark gods. Seduced by power, he embraces necromancy and sacrifice, committing atrocities to ascend in this twisted hierarchy. Parallel narratives weave in tales of ritualistic murders in the real world, investigated by a determined detective whose path leads straight to the corrupted protagonist’s doorstep. Culminating in a sinister plot to infiltrate humanity’s last hope – a billionaire’s interstellar colony.

“Apotheosis” explores themes of corruption, addiction to power, and the erasure of reality’s boundaries in a visceral, unforgettable journey.
