Barbare

Our protagonist was in the real world a teenager whose not-so-shitty future was crushed when he was diagnosed with a disease from which he had almost no chance to come out alive. As expected, he didn’t beat the odds and died. But that wasn’t the end. As you have probably guessed (if you have read the tags), death offered him a second chance. A chance to live again… in a world of swords, kings, and dragons. Reborn as William Tully in the year 263 AC, one year after Robert Baratheon's birth and thirty-five years before the beginning of the events of Game of Thrones, William is no ordinary nobleman. He is the son of Brynden Tully, the man who, in this altered timeline, never became the 'Blackfish'. Giving in to the pressures of his older brother Hoster, Brynden married, and through this union, William was born. One thing that didn't change in this version however; The Riverlands remain as fragmented and overlooked as ever, a land known for the pragmatism and the resilience of its people, the richness of its soil, nourished by the numerous rivers that weave through the land, but never its power. But William has plans. Armed with memories of his past life, the knowledge of what's to come and (not too OP) wishes, he isn’t content with the Riverlands being a mere footnote in Westerosi politics. His ambitions soar far higher. His goal? To turn the Riverlands into a mighty kingdom, one that commands respect, fear, and prestige far beyond its reputation as the forgotten 'sage child' of Westeros. In this story, you will follow William as he maneuvers his way through the dangerous political landscape of Westeros. He will forge alliances, make enemies and challenge the very balance of power in a world where the game of thrones spares no one. Alongside him, familiar and new faces, some canon, others invented, will shape his journey into an uncertain future, where the Riverlands could rise to greatness, fall into flames, or both. --- Schedule: Three chapters a week for now, one on monday, one on wednesday and one on friday.

Lazar is a man shaped by his past. Forced into exile when he was only a child, his only ambition in life was to become strong enough to take revenge. Years later, having completed his training in the American special forces, he was preparing to return to his native country to settle accounts. But again life played a trick on him... The Gods announced the Apocalypse and monsters coming from different mythologies and folklores were unleashed on Earth. Having basically the duty to fight in this war against evil, they finally decided to abandon humans leaving them a system that allows them to evolve, to know more about their enemy and the situation of the world. Lazar will not only have to survive, which is already quite difficult, but he will also realize that he has a role to play in this Apocalypse by leading those who will become his new family. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, I'm Barbare, the author. I hope you will like this novel and that you will help me improve it if you have something to criticize, I already wrote a novel in the past but I am far from being an expert after all.

Good reading PS: The cover is not from me so if it's your work contact me.
