《Roots and Steel》A/N: The Final Call (Status Update)
Advertisement
Hi all!
Book 1 has now been taken down for publishing; it is available on Amazon/Kindle Unlimited now. The series is written as a set of standalones, so book 2 is pretty readable without book 1 and tells its own story, but, that's where book 1 went. If you're giving it a pass, then I totally understand - and if you read on, then I hope you enjoy!
Hey all!
Back a month or two ago, I said I'd give a warning when Roots and Steel (book 1) was coming to the end of its lifespan online, and we are here. Right now I'm in the final stages of prepping the book for publishing - most notably, the audiobook is finished and currently going through Audible's processing, so once it's done, we're going to get moving. What that means for you is that you have ~ a week, plus or minus a little, to finish reading Roots and Steel if you have not! After that, it will be removed so that it can launch on Kindle Unlimited.
If you are not finished reading, and will not be finished by the time that week has passed, please leave a comment in this thread, and I'll work something out to get you the time you need. My goal here is not to rip content out from under anyone, so let me know! I'm so glad to have had so many readers here, and a big thank-you to everyone who made it through.
My final note for today - I do have plans for further books in Roots and Steel (which will be serialized as well), but I can only really continue with book 2 if this first book gets a bare minimum amount of engagement with readers (if I run out of money for cat food they'll just eat me instead). If you have a moment and you are willing, please consider leaving a review for the book! I won't try and milk you guys for sales - leaving a review helps me way, way more in the long run (and you do not have to buy the book to leave a review). And if you take the time out of your day to do that, then double thank-you!

With that, see you all again soon!

The Way Ahead
What do you do when you don't fit in? Edwin never really felt many connections to other people, but as a physics student, that was fine. He didn't really need it, anyway. He was content to peel back the mysteries of the universe... not that there were many left to find. Modern-day research was just too well-established, too well-trodden for any single enthusiast to make any significant headway. But that doesn't apply to other worlds. Not ones where magic and Skills run rampant, where well-defined roles and Classes dominate much of society with little room for novel experimentation from its residents. That kind of world would be perfect for an overeager, newly-minted Alchemist to make his mark. Things are never that easy, though. The Way Ahead is a very slice-of-life story following the story of someone trying to find his place in a world that doesn't know what to do with him. Expect lots of science, lots of alchemy, a few sarcastic quips by the System, and lots of exploration involving the world, self-discovery, and above all, science. After all, further research is always required. Updates every other day at 9 AM PST. Congratulations! For writing a story during the month of November, you have unlocked the Royal Road Writathon Participant path!
8 242The Demon King Absolutely Has No Attachments
Welcome to Akoras Online, where the power lies in your hands. This sandbox virtual reality MMO has gained a dedicated community, but it has a catch: those who die in battle have their stats reset. Spending all his time on the server to escape his shut-in life, Kas is the only long-time player with a death counter of 0. However, his social skills are also a big 0, so he's condemned as the cold-hearted “Demon King”. Now, the number of players who actually like him is also 0. (Which is fine. He enjoys the peace and quiet.) However, Kas' dreams of being left alone are banished over and over by challengers with various grievances against him. Among them is Gabriel, the celebrity "Hero" of Akoras, who has just as much time on his hands as Kas. Seriously, Gabriel tries to fight him a lot. It’s getting kind of tiring… Wait, this guy isn’t even in high school yet! The (not-so) idyllic trials of a Demon King and a Hero, with a raging faction war in the background. Now updates on Tuesdays, with the odd chapter in between.
8 90Elysium: Diamond In The Rough
Growing up in Elysium isn't easy, even though it's one of the biggest metropolises to spring up since all the superpowers of old decided to blast themselves into oblivion. Like a phoenix, Elysium emerged from the ashes and gave somewhere for the people of The Rough to go. This is the story of Alexander "Alex" Washington.
8 147The Sealed Planet
A Vyrnian out of time, the mystery of the sealed planet, and the adventure full of terror and danger. It all started from Earth. George Atmell was an aspiring dragon rider who had no luck finding a partner, at least until he stumbled upon a mysterious 'ruin'. Little did he know that this ruin was in fact a spaceship, and in it, a lone Vyrnian, an alien race that resembled Earth's wyvern, woke up and changed George's life forever. However, Earth was never the adventure, for George was inadvertently taken to a setting beyond his planet, along with the dangers and horrors he would encounter with his 'wyvern', Domel Arcturus. Follow the story along with several characters giving their own perspectives of the situations they were involved in. Featuring an ensemble cast of characters from various points of view. Written in First Person Perspective.
