M.M. Craig | 1 comments Hey! I am new to Goodreads so I am trying to figure this out as I go LOL.
I am a new author and just published my first book “The Love of an Enemy”. It is an action-driven, fantasy, romance. Here is a quick summary:

What lengths would you go to in order to protect those you love?

Anissa possesses rare and powerful Yugon blood, because of this, there are those who seek her blood. Specifically, the immoral and corrupt King Sparrow has sent a skilled and trained hunter named Jack to track her down and bring her to him. However, Jack does not yet realize the lengths to which the King will go to acquire her blood and create an army of the undead. Jack finds that he has more in common with Anissa than he once thought, and they slowly start to fall for one another.
Will he keep his word and bring her to the King, even if it is against his better judgement?

I wanted to create complex characters. The main female character is strong, and brave, but also makes mistakes, questions her morals, and has self doubts. I find the most intriguing types of characters are those with faults, they aren’t perfect.

I wanted to create a world you could escape into, something that had adventure, thrill, where you could connect with the characters, and be on the edge of you seat.

It recently got number 1 best selling in dark fantasy!

It is for more mature readers!

Thank you so much for reading :)

Maryelin Ramos | 1 comments Hi! I’m an author of a fantasy book called The Queen’s Exile I’m currently working on the sequel. I’ll put a summary below! It’s an enemies to lovers fantasy.

After her husband, King Andrew, goes missing, his wife, Queen Marcella, is crowned to take over the kingdom. During her reign, Marcella successfully restores the kingdom and earns admiration throughout Aldenon. However, a year into her rule, Andrew reappears and demands to reclaim the throne. Unwilling to relinquish her newfound power or return to her former life with Andrew, Marcella finds herself imprisoned by him as he attempts to undermine her authority.

Fearing for her life, Marcella escapes to Kleton, where the lord of shadow, the kingdom’s enemy, offers her refuge in exchange for her knowledge to aid his quest to seize power. As secrets of Aldenon are unveiled and unexpected alliances are forged, Marcella finds herself entangled in an enemies-to-lovers narrative, showcasing the unlikely bonds formed in times of adversity.

E.K. Condos | 2 comments Hi! I am an indie author and released my first book this past September!

It’s called A Wrecking of Salt and Fire and is a NA Romantasy inspired by The Iliad and Pirates of the Caribbean. I am currently writing Book Two of the series.

Tropes include:
Found family
Lovers to enemies
Rivals to lovers
Forbidden love
One bed
“Good girl”

A Wrecking of Salt and Fire (The Nostos Series Book 1) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRQNW28F?...

Plagued by fear.

Haunted by the sins of her past.

Approaching twenty-five, Katrin Drakos should only be concerned with two things—being crowned Queen of Alentus and marrying her Fated, Kohl.

For five years, she focused on falling in love, on living, on becoming whole again.

For five years, she was able to forget what the vile King Nikolaos of Nexos had done to her.

For five years, her nightmares did not return.

But then the whispers started. A rumbling of rebellion poised to strike. The King of Nexos had never attacked before. Until now. Until right before the Acknowledgement.

So when a notorious pirate captures her, claiming to have saved her from the lies the leaders have woven into history, Katrin must decide if the enemy from her past has really been her ally this whole time.

Decide before the world around her crumbles and not only her power, but the power of all the gods, is lost forever.

Because sometimes the Fates have other plans.

Content Information: A Wrecking of Salt and Fire is a New Adult book for a full list of information, please visit my website. These are also included at the beginning of all editions of the book.

Hunter H. | 3 comments Treasures of the Lochs
This is suspenseful YA Christian fantasy/fiction, involving a modern-day treasure hunt in Scotland, with a bit of supernatural thrown in. Blending historical fact and Scottish legend within an action-packed adventure, Treasures of the Lochs is an exciting, powerful story of faith, friendship, and redemption. The target audience is teenage and above (some parts would be too intense for younger readers).

This book is a 2024 NIEA Finalist in Religion Fiction. The novel crosses a few different genres, including Christian Fantasy, Magical Realism, and Suspense. It also hit Amazon#1 New Release for Christian Fantasy. I hope you’ll check it out.

https://a.co/d/2MdhuL0

If you enjoy dark romance and Disney retellings then my twist on the classic tale of Beauty and the Beast is for you 🥀

Blurb: Calathea Everhart, once a thriving princess, is now a cursed queen, haunted by a witch's dark promise. After centuries of solitude with only a few stray human companions, she's doomed to watch the life around her grow and change while she stays the same.

Outside the border of her lands, a village has come to fear her, claiming a beast lives within the woods, and the only way to appease it is to feed it. Calathea doesn't interfere with humans, at least, not until two brothers venture into the forest. One seeks to slay the beast, the other is intent on breaking her curse.

Little does she know, the arrival of the two brothers changes everything, and forces her to face the very past she's been running from. How far will she go to break her own curse? And what will she have to give up?

I'm thrilled to introduce my book series, Eversong Blade, a journey of resilience, legacy, and redemption in the tumultuous Realm.

Rescued by the Lunaria Sect after losing his family, Kellan grows from a diligent temple worker into an unassuming yet profoundly courageous hero. Known for his sharp wit and unyielding spirit, he faces betrayal, battles fierce warriors, and uncovers the secrets of the legendary Eversong Blade. His journey is not just a quest for survival but a discovery of his destiny.

This series is perfect for fans of found family, epic battles, and morally complex characters.

I am a new indie author who loves gothic/dark fantasy the most.
My debut novel, "Lover's Oath,"
Lover's Oath


is a short introduction to a dark fantasy series I'm writing.

The book is about a woman who is haunted by her past lover. It also features gods, demons, curses, and unreliable narration.

There is violence and horror in it. It is a dark fantasy, after all. I would be incredibly happy if you checked it out.

hi everyone!

i know this page is dedicated to fantasy books, but i wanted to share my self-published romance novel here anyways! i am an english teacher, so i published under a pseudonym just to keep my indie author career separate from my professional career.

Words I Should Have Said

Tropes:
🌾 Best Friend’s Brother
🌅 He Falls First
🌊 Friends with Benefits to Lovers
🐚 Forced Proximity
🧺 Bookish FMC
🥂 LGBTQIA+ Rep

Synopsis:
After an unexpected breakup, Rosie Dawson jumps into bed with her favorite friend-with-benefits: her best friend’s younger brother, Callum. Rosie isn’t looking for anything more than a distraction, so why does she keep finding her thoughts drifting back to him weeks later?

Callum Costello has never had any interest in a serious relationship, that is until Rosie shows up at his doorstep. As his sister’s best friend, anything more than a hookup with Rosie is off limits. Given his history as the playboy, that should be fine. The only problem? For the first time in his life, Callum finds himself wanting more.

With Elena’s, Rosie’s best friend and Callum’s sister’s wedding quickly approaching, Callum and Rosie suddenly find themselves forced together more often than they have been in the last decade. She’s the Maid of Honor, he’s the Best Man, love is in the air, but absolutely no one has feelings for each other... What could possibly go wrong?

J. J. | 1 comments Hi, I have recently released a YA novel called
'From Brisbane to Tokyo while in Orlando, Florida' - I'm extremely proud of it and would love for more people to hear about it and give it a read.

Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1068651903/...

New state. New school. One message that launches your fresh start...

Hayden Mallard is a shy, reserved and self-conscious boy starting his junior year at a new school... in a new state. Feeling suffocated from his past while wanting to enjoy life, he tries to see what is out there: high school parties, social outings, dealing with drama, adventures, and, at a desperate time, messaging a fellow high schooler who is using the alias Tokyo. She welcomes him to a new world of music - and he wishes to discover who she is.

Between the real world and online, Hayden must experience the highs and lows of life, learning to deal with real situations, coping with the unknown and facing the consequences of recent and past events.

'From Brisbane To Tokyo While In Orlando, Florida' is a wonderful and deeply moving Young Adult novel about first love, second chances and the power of friendship, growing up, acceptance and life.
"There's simultaneously heart breaking and heart warming moments and the twists of this story made for an unexpected and exciting read." Ellie Brennan, BBC Radio 2
It would be amazing if you could take a chance on my book and give it a read... and possibly a review on Goodreads or Amazon. I would extremely grateful. (It's available as an ebook and paperback across all Amazon sites)

Brian Green | 1 comments I Am Dragon A Randall Erik Ddraik Novel (Randall Erik Ddraik Novel Series Book 1) by Brian J. Green

Hi, fellow authors!

I'm grateful that this group has a message board so we can share our work directly with each other. I'm looking forward to reading some of the work posted here.

I recently published my first book on Amazon, called I AM DRAGON. It's the first in a series and I'm currently hard at work on the first sequel.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DL3XK28T

My name is Randall Erik Ddraik.
I’m a Dragon.

Randall works as a security consultant, bodyguard, and all-around badass for hire, working for the supernatural elite, and occasional human who’s wealthy enough to afford him. Case in point, his current client Annalisa VanSusstern, one of the world’s richest humans. Humiliatingly, she’s just been kidnapped right out from under his nose, almost costing Randall his life in the process.

Annalisa is in Randall’s care, which means he’s taken an oath to keep her safe, so nothing short of his death will stop him from rescuing her. As he navigates through LA's hidden supernatural world, fighting to get her back, he discovers hidden, and dangerous, secrets about her. It turns out Annalisa isn’t human, and worse, she’s the key to unleashing a catastrophe the likes of which the world has never seen. Randall has only three days to find her and stop it.

The insane thing is, he’s not sure he wants to, because if he doesn't, he gets the one thing he's desired most for almost five hundred years... to become a Full-blood Dragon.

You can also check out my website at www.iamdragonbook.com. You'll find great character art and bios, you can read the first chapter, and there will be new short stories from the world of I AM DRAGON being added soon.

Aengie Scevity (aengie_scevity) | 2 comments Hello everyone!
It would make my day if anyone checked out my book The Owlbear and the Omens. I feel like I bungled absolutely every step of self-publishing and am now rushing around trying to play catch-up.

You can find it here on Goodreads:
The Owlbear and the Omens Collected Edition by Aengie Scevity
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (I'm still working on claiming my Goodreads author profile)

Or on Amazon here: www.amazon.com/Owlbear-Omens-Collecte...

Here's the blurb: Imperial Princess Phosphoria of the Zekzterian Empire is desperate to survive the inevitable culling of her father’s harem, when an opportunity arises. In the conquered land of Great Leven, her dying brother is an heirless king until Phosphoria wins the right to his throne.

To secure her rule, Phosphoria announces a tour of the country and trials for her hand, but when servants and nobles alike are murdered, she discovers that the harem she escaped might just be the key to stay the infighting. However, a queen’s harem will be no easy feat as the lords of Great Leven will never accept the proposal and Phosphoria is unable to lie; she is Blessed by the Owlbear, forced to see and speak only the truth.

Further complications arise from rebels loyal to the usurped royal line, and the reappearance of the true heir: the Lost Prince Osbeorn Auber of Great Leven, whose coming was foretold in omens upon the wind.

By marrying many, Phosphoria runs the risk of marrying the murderer in her midst, but she must fight tradition if she is to succeed against the rebels, the murderer, and the lords of Great Leven itself. As for Osbeorn, he must come to terms with the darkness of his past before he can look to the future of his country.

Lastly, a question. What reader perceptions do you think are impacting your success? For me, I think its because I wrote a 'reverse harem' with no spice. People see 'reverse harem' and assume spice, and people who are interested in spice find that there is none in the book.

Mohamed Suliman | 1 comments Counterclockwise: The Heart of the Universe

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DQP5Y7GS

Reality is About to Spin Backward

description

Your Universe Will Never Be the Same
The day everything changed, they noticed the birds first. Flocks spiraling counterclockwise against steel-gray skies. Then came the whales, circling in reverse. And in the depths of CERN's particle accelerator, scientists watched in horror as the very laws of quantum mechanics began to unravel.

This is where your journey begins.

A Scientific Thriller That Defies Reality

Deep in the pristine laboratories of CERN, Dr. Eve Malik has uncovered patterns in the quantum fabric that threaten everything we know about reality. Her discovery points to something massive, something ancient—something that was never meant to be found.

Half a world away, in the sweltering heat of Sudan, Dr. Adam Labib is witnessing the impossible. Human hearts are synchronizing with an unseen force, pulsing to a cosmic rhythm that defies explanation. His research suggests our hearts might be more than mere organs—they could be receivers of universal truth... or harbingers of chaos.

As these brilliant minds race to connect the dots, dark forces emerge from the shadows, seeking to harness these anomalies for their own devastating ends. The countdown to catastrophe has begun.

Why This Book Will Change You Forever

🌟 QUANTUM REVELATION: Where cutting-edge physics meets ancient mystery
🧠 INTELLECTUAL FIRESTORM: Complex theories wrapped in heart-pounding suspense

Your Journey Begins Now

Step into a world where nothing is as it seems, where every heartbeat could be counting down to cosmic revelation—or chaos. Where your understanding of reality will be challenged with every turn of the page.

Don't just read it. Experience it. Question everything.

Mel Tokken (meltokken) | 1 comments Thank you to the moderators for this thread!

I would like to recommend Nekomancers: Soul Purrtectors. It is dark historical fiction. It explores themes such as mental illness, abuse, violence in a cathartic manner. The premise is that the gods of ancient mythologies are actually cats (and dogs and birds) that have protected humans over the centuries from an evil force of darkness. The content is a bit dark but clean - no cursing, no sex, no drug references. There is some violence, but no unnecessary gore. I was comfortable to let my 12 year old niece read it

SUMMARY:

Cats are quirky creatures. They were once worshipped by ancient civilizations as gods and they remember. Despite humans’ best efforts to domesticate these feisty felines, cats dance to their own tune. Have you ever wondered why cats stare at a spot where you see nothing? Or why they are possessed by the zoomies at three in the morning? Or perhaps why they insist on laying on your chest and purring when you have a cold or are feeling sad? Could there be more to cats than meets the eye?

Ki-Ang is a Kahu or guardian of Ni (a soul with awesome power). As a cat Kahu, his mission is to guide and protect vulnerable Ni until they can fully connect with their light. In return, a fully connected Ni will help ignite the spark of light in other souls and help to provide powerful energy to keep the forces of Chaos imprisoned. This task is not an easy one, as a vulnerable Ni is susceptible to infection by the Darkness known as the Gaudium Cleptes. Should the Darkness gain control of a Ni’s power, it could spread like wildfire, corrupting not only the Ni but all those around them. Ki-Ang and his fellow cat guardians have been successfully protecting human Ni for millennia, but hubris comes before the fall. Will an evolved darkness get the better of the furry guardians or will their feline ferocity be enough to keep the darkness at bay?

Join Ki-Ang and his fellow feline Kahu as they navigate missions with souls that need their help. Be brave, as they face down inner city gangs and medieval tyrants. Be compassionate, as they hold space to allow for grieving. Be supportive, as they help confused souls discover their worth. Be strong, as they fight for freedom and fairness. Be heroic, as they fight to keep the chaotic forces of Tiamat contained.

If you have pets or have ever struggled with darker emotions, then you will love this book.

It is available for free to kindle unlimited subscribers or $7.99 for the ebook. The paperback is $14.99. I really hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Amazon link - https://a.co/d/cjTYQxx

Michael C | 1 comments First, a thank you to this group for the opportunity to share my first book with each of you.

I dreamed of being an author since I was a child. Writing has always been one of my passions and has always been a hobby. But a few years ago I discovered Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing and decided it was time to make that dream reality. It also gave me an opportunity to show my granddaughters that you should never give up on a dream.

I invite you to visit Clement’s Junction, but beware of the curse that laid dormant for hundreds of years until it was accidentally unleashed…

Detective Allison McKay’s bad choices had nearly cost her and her friends their lives. Deciding to get away from those decisions, she threw her few belongings into her Jeep and headed out to wherever the road took her. The road led her to the same kind of small town she had escaped when she had turned 18 and ran away. But unlike the town she grew up in, this town needs her and her gifts. In this town a long buried secret has been uncovered and a curse released, leaving a trail of bodies the Sheriff and his deputies are ill-prepared to handle.

A strange new phenomenon called "The Whisper Plague" begins spreading across the globe. People all over the world starts losing their sanity, claiming they’ve had divine visions. As the world begins to fall apart, Kenny, Sandy, and Dr. Lara Bush set out to investigate what’s happening.

What they discover is far darker than they could have imagined. They uncover a hidden connection to Nikola Tesla’s unpublished experiments and secret deal with the Reptilians. These beings have secretly infiltrated human society, using Tesla’s technology to control people’s minds and create a fake Messiah to unite the world under their rule.

As the team digs deeper, they learn that the Reptilians have been shaping history for centuries, hiding in the shadows of power. They’ve influenced governments, religions, and the most powerful people in the world. The fake Messiah is their ultimate plan to take full control of humanity.

Kenny, Sandy, and Lara must expose the truth, stop the Reptilians, and prevent their plan from succeeding. But the deeper they go, the more they realize that not all the Reptilians have been revealed, and some still hold great power. The battle is just beginning.

Whisper of God is the thrilling third chapter in The Veil Equation series, filled with secrets, conspiracy, and a fight to save humanity from a hidden enemy with a terrifying plan for global domination. The truth has been uncovered, but the real struggle for the future of the world is only just beginning.

The Orange Curse is a lively, fun fantasy inspired by Italian folktales. A cursed prince, a girl with terrible luck, a parrot, and a cat set out on a journey to a fairy country to look for three mysterious oranges that will remove a curse.
Readers think that this fairy tale is “strikingly original”, “brimming with imagination”, and has "a universal appeal”.
Talking animals, evil magnolias, a compelling villain and other disturbing adults, lots of humor, and oranges!



See? The evil magnolia I was talking about!

Victor Lockwood | 8 comments I'm gonna take the chance to do a little self-promotion hehe

I published a book last week Empire of Ravens (which is free in kdp) and it is a high fantasy story and the start of a series. I've focused a lot on worldbuilding (without slowing the pace) and the humanity and psicology of the characters, I will leave the blurb below!

“There will be no Gods in this quest for absolution...”
With this ominous prophecy and the Gods deep in slumber, the Crow sends Valora Rhen—the Lightwielder—into a quest to stop the threat of the Dark Coven, a sect of evil witches aiming to summon their wicked god to sunder the world and bring its inhabitants to their knees. To prevent this calamity from unfolding, the Lightwielder embarks on a journey with Dinah White—a fenirian witch eager to prove herself to her race, Nathan—a runaway bard with a secret that has caught the Coven’s eye, and Kairo Zunae—a charming merchant faring from the far city of Fuertelibre.

Will they manage to lift the veil of mystery around the Dark Coven and its elusive Matriarch?

Will they outsmart the manipulative hand that seems to always be one step ahead of them?

The book has some illustrations, but this one is not one of them. It was made after the book was published.

I know! They are not as dark as German or Russian folktales. At least, the stories in the collection I read as a child were mostly lighthearted and humorous.

John Stoddard | 3 comments Hello everyone!
My name is John M Stoddard and I am an indie author of a epic fantasy series, Last of Dragoes. I am getting ready to release Book 2 on September 15, 2025, and right now, until its release, I put Book 1 on the Kindle Unlimited for those interested in catching up.
Here is a bit about book 1.

Last of the Dragoes: Book One: Legends

He gave up duty to protect his family. Now the past is coming for his son.

Victor Tornell lives a quiet life—devoted husband, proud father, and a man with a buried past. But when an old enemy resurfaces, everything he’s hidden threatens to erupt into chaos.

Years ago, Victor was a Dragoes in the Order of the Dragons—peacekeepers empowered by magic to prevent war between races. He left the Order to build a life with Tina, the woman he loved. To protect her from an assassination attempt, they faked their deaths and vanished into obscurity.

But the enemy he thought he appeased—Draven—is still alive.

And now, Draven is coming not just for Victor, but for his five-year-old son, Koh.

With an army of the Dragoes’ oldest enemies and a plan to wipe out their Order forever, Draven’s return could mean the end of everything Victor once swore to protect.

Will Victor rise again to stop him… or will the world witness the fall of the Last of the Dragoes?

Perfect for fans of Wheel of Time, The Witcher, and Eragon, Last of the Dragoes: Legends is a noblebright epic fantasy full of danger, honor, and the quiet weight of a father’s love.

Gideon Rex (gideonrexwrites) | 1 comments Hello, for this book, it's important to keep in mind that I didn't put much effort into sticking to a traditional structure. If you keep an open mind and are willing to join in the fun, you'll probably find this quirky work of fiction enjoyable. I am happy to send PDF copies if you don't have Kindle Unlimited.

Russell Carroll | 1 comments Greetings everyone!

I wrote a D&D-inspired epic fantasy Relentless Blades.

Cross the wrong men and meet their blades!

In a rugged frontier town, two broken men wander aimlessly–Grimlock, a tormented soul despised by the townspeople he protects, searches for a brother he may never find, while Vigilanton, a disgraced knight bound by shame, serves a vicious crime lord.

The Vragoths’ arrival–brutal conquerors seeking an ancient scepter to shift the balance of power–thrusts these disillusioned men into a deadly game they never asked to play. Redemption is the prize, but only if they can overcome spilled blood, betrayal, and their own inner demons.

Neither sought to be allies, let alone heroes, but vengeance forces them into a fate they cannot escape. Old grudges and past failures threaten to tear their fragile alliance apart. In this battle, there are no second chances. Victory means survival. Defeat means death. And time is running out.


Relentless Blades is a fast-paced epic fantasy that hits hard! If you love heroic battles, deep character struggles, and edge-of-your-seat adventure, this one's for you! The fight for Zarune begins-are you ready?

The sequel, Ashbound Oaths releases this fall! Great time to jump in!

My debut novel, Beneath the Ashen Sky is FREE on Kindle Unlimited!
Recently #1 New Release in Low Fantasy and nearly 20000 KENP read in its first 2 months 😁
All 5 star reviews!
Beneath The Ashen Sky: A Grimdark Fantasy of Blood, Ruin, and Redemption Beneath The Ashen Sky A Grimdark Fantasy of Blood, Ruin, and Redemption by T.L. Bellia
This is a fast-paced novel that screams grimdark to its very core.
Told from the alternating first-person views of two protagonists - a battle-hardened Captain of the Drassox Guard, Lothar, and Kael, a 9-year-old boy that may unknowingly hold a dark secret.
The story begins in the middle of the action, as the pairs town is brutally massacred by a ruthless group, seeming hellbent on murdering all the children in the area.
What follows is a dark, gritty tale that will have Lothar questioning his honor and morals.
While a battle for Kael's soul will begin.

Razvan-Gabriel Popa | 1 comments Hi everyone,

I'll start by introducing this dark fantasy collection, because the e-book is free today (1st of August on Amazon). I'm running a promo and you can get yours fast!

Here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FK3MVLH8


Book Cover

Book blurb below:

A Binding to Set You Free & Other Creepy Tales

In a world where the dead refuse to stay buried, Leira, a young Death Binder, must confront the tormented souls of the fallen and the fears within her own heart. When she’s summoned to investigate the mysterious death of a beautiful woman, Leira uncovers a trail of murder, of lust and longing, and curses that twist love into hunger and sorrow into power. Together with Alshunor, her lover and mentor, she descends into a dark, snowy forest, to bind an undead to silence. But this never comes without a cost.

Alongside Leira’s story, these pages hold other tales of abandoned castles and mysterious manors, of undead-haunted forests and ruins soaked in memory. Moonlight stirs the bones, and the ghosts are never far behind.

Grim, lyrical, and steeped in quiet horror, this collection of dark tales grips from the first flicker of candlelight. And doesn’t let go.

Glen Harrington | 1 comments Hello!

First-time author and first-time Goodreads poster. I have loved young adult fantasy and fiction for many years and, despite sadly no longer being in the target age bracket, still find myself a regular reader.

My eldest son is named Magnus for Magnus Bane from the Shadowhunters series, and my youngest is Caspian for Prince Caspian.

I have spent the past year writing my debut YA fantasy, The Trials of Divinia, a tale of seven gods who wage an annual battle for power through an ancient competition - each choosing a mortal from their region to represent them across a series of trials.

This story follows Talon Drakeforge, an unlikely champion, as he navigates a world full of strange new people, death-defying challenges, and divine politics.

If you are interested, please take a look: https://amzn.eu/d/0cGwRAZ

Also happy to receive recommendations from other fans of the genre.

Glen

John F. | 1 comments Hey everyone!

Like many of you, I'm completely obsessed with the world of Prythian and I'm constantly wondering what my life would be like if I were Fae.

My biggest question was always: what would my magic be?

So, I decided to make a really fun, in-depth personality quiz book to figure it out!

[image error]

It helps you discover your true Prythian gift—

whether you're
- a mind-reading Daemati, a powerful Shapeshifter,
- a life-saving Healer,
- a star-touched Winnower, or
- a Shapeshifter and Elemental.

I spent a ton of time making sure the questions felt authentic to the world and the magic system. It’s a super fun way to see which Court your powers would align with!

If you’ve ever wondered what your gift would be, you can check it out here on Amazon.

I'd love to hear what results you all get!

Are you more Night Court or Day Court?

Tarun Kapu | 3 comments Hi everyone — I’m a debut author who just released my first book, Trigunaya – The Awakening
Trigunaya - The Awakening: The First Echo in the War for Balance

Three forces shape existence — Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. Light, fire, and shadow. Balance is fragile, and when it breaks, reality itself begins to fracture.
Trigunaya is not just mythology retold. It blends myth and sci-fi, dream and waking, timelines and multiverses — all set against a shifting, dystopian backdrop. At its heart, it follows Neela, a girl drawn into an ancient struggle where silence holds as much power as gods or machines.

Threads you’ll find:

Myth reimagined through a sci-fi lens

A glyphic language and symbols that shape reality

Dream vs. reality blurring until both feel unstable

Dystopian echoes in a timeless conflict

A heroine caught between clarity, storm, and shadow

If you’re drawn to stories that merge myth with science, the surreal with the futuristic, you might hear something humming beneath the page here.
Thanks for helping a new author find their readers — every bit of feedback is valuable.
