Summary
"Please let me come home Mama. I promise to be a good boy. They lied when they said this was a good school. IT’S NOT! IT’S A BAD SCHOOL!"
2289. Humanity is at war with a mysterious foe known only as 'The Procumbents'. At military academies across the Human systems, boys are trained from a young age in the art of war to feed the Navy's demand for talented fighter pilots. One such academy is Aureus...
Almost as soon as he arrived, twelve-year-old Thomas realised that Aureus Academy was nothing like he'd expected Naval Academy to be. Join him and his newfound friends (and foes) to experience the alternative education that is Aureus, or else be slithering Procumbent scum.
This is a collaborative story between writers working under the nom de plume 'The Academy'. Writers alternate main responsibility for each chapter throughout.

Summary
When I have fears that I may cease to be
Before my pen has glean'd my teeming brain...James and Manny were brought up on stories. Stories and music and sex and other things, but it was the stories that stuck. Stories of the lost past, just before they were born. Stories of fantasy, of the future – or at least what could have been the future, once. But stories... Stories are always in the eye of the beholder. The meanings and the characters are always what you make of them, and not always quite what you expect.
Archie's story just doesn't make sense. And worse, its implications – and the emphasis that other people give them – leave James questioning every fact and lesson he thought he knew of his own story. The one that he and Jake and Manny wrote together. But they can't tell that story anymore; the final chapter ended a long time ago. Except, of course, when they can – James just needs to work out exactly when that is, and remember just who the author was in the first place.
A sequel to the story Solstice, and a mystery as much of the self and society as of how Angelika Wojnowski came to die, and what Archie Stephens had to do with it.

Summary
The saying goes that the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry. Though not quite a man himself, eleven-year-old Oliver Moore is no exception. One moment, he’s living the sheltered yet luxurius life that comes with being the pampered son of two corporate lawyers. The next, he’s half-naked, hooded, and hanging by his wrists in some dingy basement—courtesy of some very bad men who have set their sights on his family’s wealth.
It’s a classic tale of a boy being kidnapped for ransom… right up until a car accident leaves the kidnappers dead, and Oliver hanging alone and helpless in that basement. Now, Oliver’s only chance at freedom lies in a group of local boys who stumble upon him by sheer dumb luck, but it seems his would-be rescuers have other plans for him…

Bookmarker's Notes
This is such an ambitious, wide-screen, well-crafted piece of story telling that the only thing more I can add is that it simply must be read.

Summary
Yorva, an academic elite, visits Tatooine for urgent repairs where he “happens” upon the enslaved 8-year-old prodigy, Anakin Skywalker. Momma Shmi isn’t fooled; Yorva is a pedophile even if he claims to be offering Master Watto a fortune to free her son and enroll him in school. Despite Watto’s grudging collaboration with her desperate ruse, Yorva outmaneuvers them and claims his prize.
After years of serving Yorva’s dark desires, Anakin’s misery sends ripples through the galaxy that attract the Jedi’s attention, but it’s too late to save him. From afar Darth Sidious has further corrupted the child — who is fated to become one of the greatest Force-wielders of all time — and filled him with hatred and vengeance.
If you like this content and quality, please check out my other works, especially The Inaugural Waltz and Never Beg Again.
Up next: In an attempt to make Ch. 4 look like fluff, Yorva goes ballistic when disillusioned little Ani finally stands up for himself, and he brutalizes the boy he claims to adore and admire.

Titties.
Actually, this story isn't about titties. It's about thinking you should like titties because everyone else says so, then ending up realising that a nice cock and balls are far better. Oh, and a weird creepy conspiracy is thrown in too. And middle school, which everyone loves.
