Summary
***Remastered Version of The Reluctant Alchemist's Guide to Thedas, Part 1"***
Margo Duvalle likes her quiet academic life just fine. Her research on the history of botany is going well - until she finds a strange manuscript in the local special collections library. What starts as a promising source for a new article leads to a series of unfortunate events that result in Margo finding herself in a strange world - and in a stranger's body. Soon, she is swept up by the violence that has gripped Thedas. There are plants to collect, and potions to make, but surviving a world on the edge of collapse is no trivial proposition, all the more so when everyone in the Inquisition has something to hide.

Summary
There are over 560 federally recognized American Indian and Alaskan Native tribes in the U.S. and yet comprehensive data on violence against the women under tribal jurisdiction does not exist because no federal, Indian agency nor organization systematically collects this information. These women are relegated to the shadows.
Names lost. Faces forgotten. Hope abandoned.
Chief Mathias Stillwater has not forgotten them. He has not abandoned them. He will not give up on them without a fight, no matter the cost.
Sheriff Cady Longmire has learned the truth. She has seen the faces of the forgotten. She has heard their names and watched justice pass them by, leaving them to their fates.
No more.

Summary
The Omega Keys revive Cybertron, and the battlefront of the Autobot-Decepticon War moves back to the homeworld. Troops of both sides roaming the galaxy start to return, and the war goes on. But after eons and eons of seemingly meaningless battles over the devastated Cybertron and energon scraps everyone is feeling tired and bitter, and the will to fight is at all-time low. This is the perfect time to dig up some old traditions and laws and push the guilt and responsibility on the shoulders of those who started it all, thus allowing the rest to move on towards the dream of a peaceful future.
But getting rid of the consequences and burdens of the past is a long, painful process, far from happy and even further from the end, and no scapegoat is strong enough to carry away all the grief, loss and grudge of a people with a history of such oppression and cruel war.

The Museum Raider by Natasja
Fandoms: Original Work, Tomb Raider & Related Fandoms, Indiana Jones Series
19 Nov 2018

Summary
Petitions for the return of ancestral remains, cultural treasures and 'give us back our sacred relics, you bloody colonisers' were all well and good, but sometimes, it wasn't enough.
That was when Addy stepped in.
The British Museum called her a 'cultural terrorist'. Various art and antiquity museums cursed the very existence of the 'unknown thief'. No small number of indigenous populations considered her the next best thing to a time machine capable of preventing or mitigating colonisation in the first place.
Addy's girlfriend called her 'The Museum Raider', because why should well-off white people have all the adventures? Especially when those 'adventures' were 'which colonising group gets to exploit the stereotyped natives under the guise of Good vs Evil'.It wasn't totally an altruistic cause, though.
Sacred items were sacred for a reason, and the longer they were away from their rightful home, the weaker the protection they once provided grew. For all it's flaws, Addy liked the world not over-run by demons and beings from assorted hell-dimensions, and the barriers that held the darkness at bay grew weaker every year.The Museum Raider was the world's only hope.

Summary
Two women with no connection to each other. A chance meeting and a quick goodbye. Neither of them expected everything to change.
Abigail Henderson was enduring a blind date turned cautionary Tinder tale. Solona Amell was just doing her job bounty hunting for a local bail bonds office. When Abby's date and Solona's target turn out to be one and the same, neither of them expects how quickly their lives will turn upside down.
When an altercation with local law enforcement is caught on video and begins to circulate the Internet, they both find themselves thrown headfirst into the lingering mage-templar conflict still gripping the Free Marches twenty years after the violent destruction of the Kirkwall Chantry. Their personal lives aren't left unscathed either, as both women find themselves grappling with strange new acquaintances and relatively unwanted attractions to two former Templars now working as detectives with the Kirkwall City Police Department.
Tensions rise as past transgressions begin to surface, but everyone has secrets to hide.
