Hi everyone - how are you all doing? I don't really have anything to say this week except to keep up with all the great work!

Also, we've reached another GENRE SWITCH UP mission! Hooray!

For those members who are new, here's what it means:

There will be one book from each genre selected, as per usual. They will be listed below. You can then choose to read any of the books - either from a different genre or from your normal genre. This Genre Switch Up is a choice.

When reporting points at the end of the mission, please also include the title of the book you chose to read.

You are allowed to read snippets from more than one of the mission books. Again, remember to include titles when reporting your points at the end.

Books of the Mission

Owls1221's 'LOD: Return of the Dark Father'

"What happens when Fearian Grevalon, who's been a criminal and the black sheep, tried to rid his misbehaviour in order to be accepted by his strict society? He received their consent and stayed with his family who he had abandoned long ago, he tried to be as good as possible to them. Especially his father who he mistreated as well.

Things went well for both Fearian and his father, until he made a mistake that caused him to receive a penalty from the king. That is to leave the Meanian Kingdom once and for all.

He was against the idea yet he knew he'll struggle with his actions, so he accepted his punishment. However, he somehow knew that his family, specifically his father, were in danger when he heard a whisper about his father's demise.

So he has little time to figure out who's going to harm them, and he has to find out quickly before he becomes an outcast."

Dante_Greywolf's 'The Last Werewolf (Vidar #1)'

"After the events of Ragnarok, the God Vidar has settled in the nice and quiet city of Antwerp where he keeps and eye on the local paranormal community. Nearly a millennium later, Vidar is a grumbling bookstore owner by day and a lazy paranormal detective by night (albeit a slightly furry one during the full moon). The morning after a particularly rough transition, the young teenage girl who normally wastes her days on the skatepark across the street enters his shop, fervently looking for a book on the legend of Brabo and Antigonus. As she struggles to pay, she reveals that the giant has disappeared from the statue on the town square. At the foot of the fountain now lies a body that has been dead for three hundred years."

LuisPetrizzoRengel's 'Earth Warriors'

"It is the year 2026, an alien race called the Zlocu are waging war across the stars, believing that the era of peace was slowing down the next step of universal evolution and now are determined to "awake" everyone to let them know how peace made them "weak".

Planet Earth took one of the worst hits from their onslaught, given that they were recovering from a devastating global conflict. Despite the efforts of various governments, the Zlocu occupied 80% of Earth. Everything seemed hopeless until a group of celestial beings called "The Guardians" started to intervene in the conflict, as a result of the discovery of the four physical incarnations that represent the principles of the Universe itself, all of them found on planet Earth.

Now, these four heroes and other factions must work together to defeat the Zlocu Empire and Malgan's reign of tyranny. But more than war, they also need to know what is the meaning of being a hero and a warrior in the modern world."

*Note: this story contains some extreme violence, heavy psychological themes, and some scenes of a sexual nature.
