1: A Close Call - Book 1: A New Beginning by aubie56 Aubie56 is just a great writer of several different styles of fiction. His stories are great and most don't really have much sex in them, at least not as a driving force of the story. His language is colorful and entertaining without being vulgar, and is just a great joy to read.
3: Sword Saint: a New Start by Shaddoth This story is pure medieval fantasy and is full of humor, character, growing understanding, and lots of confusion (on the part of the main character). It is a truly enjoyable read that just goes way too quickly. This story is very rapidly becoming one of my favorites!
