Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Floating Island - Triple S Talent

Floating Island - Triple S Talent

Humans of Earth were transported to the Divine Sky Realm, a world brimming with fortune and danger. In this celestial domain, humanity now dwells upon floating islands, ascending as rulers. When else will you get the chance to be a king and vie for supremacy? The system bestowed powers upon chosen individuals, granting limitless luck. Lein, an ordinary office worker, received the SSS-rank talent - Infinity Duplicate. There was nothing in this world that he couldn't duplicate, not even god-tier materials. The path to becoming the strongest lay before him. Yet, Lein knew all too well that it required a process. Even the gods needed a process to create the universe. The Divine Sky Realm offered a fantastical life that Earth's humans had always dreamed of. Soaring through the skies, shattering mountains, rising to the pinnacle in all endeavors. But humans remain humans, wherever they are, driven by their innate nature: greedy and unaware of their limits. Humans believed they were the sole inhabitants of the universe, thinking only they received the system's fortune. But reality proved otherwise. Other races in the universe were granted the same blessings, without distinction. In fact, the human physique was considered low-tier. Races like the Wood Elves, Dwarves, Goblins, Dragons, and countless others possessed bodies that defied the heavens from the outset. Could humans survive in the Divine Sky Realm? We can only hope for the best. The humans found themselves in a realm where dreams and nightmares walked hand in hand, a place where every desire and fear took form. Floating islands became their new kingdoms, a testament to their newfound power and ambition. Lein, an unremarkable man back on Earth, now wielded the power of Infinity Duplicate, a gift that could make him invincible.

One characteristic was the exploration of post - cold - war anxieties. With the end of the Cold War, sci - fi novels in the 90's started to look at new threats and opportunities. There was a sense of both hope and fear. Hope for new scientific discoveries and fear of how these could be misused. They also tended to have more complex female characters compared to earlier decades, reflecting the changing gender roles in society at that time.

Surreal sci - fi novels are different from traditional ones in several ways. Traditional sci - fi usually has a more straightforward narrative structure based on scientific concepts.

In surreal sci - fi, like 'Solaris', the characters are often grappling with psychological and existential issues brought on by strange and surreal phenomena.

What makes metaphysical sci fi novels different from regular sci fi novels?
1 answer

The main difference is that metaphysical sci fi novels tend to be more concerned with fundamental questions. Regular sci fi can be about exciting action and adventure in a science - fictional setting. But metaphysical sci fi novels are more about exploring the deeper aspects of human experience and the universe. They might ask questions like 'What is the nature of self?' or 'Is there a higher purpose to existence?' For example, 'The Left Hand of Darkness' by Ursula K. Le Guin uses a science - fictional world to explore gender identity and the fluidity of it, which is a very metaphysical concept. It's not just about the science - fictional elements like the planet's environment, but more about how those elements can be used to understand deeper human and philosophical ideas.

Traditional sci fi usually follows a more straightforward plot. Also, experimental ones can blend different genres more freely. For example, mixing horror with sci fi in ways traditional sci fi might not.
