    Summary

    A series to contain Sam's various original works set in the "Shivadhverse". The stories center around the royal family of Askazer-Shivadlakia, "The little country by the sea", one of the few democratic monarchies in the world with Europe's only Jewish royal family. The series follows the lives of the newly crowned King Gregory III, his fiance the American celebrity chef Eddie Rambler, his father King Emeritus Michaelis and his partner Jes Deimos, Jes's son Noah, Michaelis's nephew Gerald the Duke of Shivadlakia, Gregory's maternal cousin the lady Alanna Daskaz, and various other friends and family.

    Fete For A King tells the story of how Gregory fell in love with Eddie while Gregory was supposed to be looking for a proper husband and Eddie was supposed to be catering his coronation.
    Infinite Jes explains how podcast journalist Jes Deimos and their son Noah came into the life of the retired king Michaelis, who wasn't looking for romance but found it anyway.
    The Lady And The Tiger finds the Lady Alanna Daskaz and His Grace Gerald, Duke of Shivadlakia, discovering new love while engaging in political intrigue (and occasional tiger-wrangling) abroad.

    Summary

    He is on his knees in the mud. The very breath is stolen from his lungs. All he can see is darkness.

    He sees his father’s face, creased in disappointment as he makes a mistake and the knife he is forging cracks when he quenches it. His mother, pale and drawn and staring out of the window of their house. The night that they ran, all his possessions that he could carry stuffed into a pack as they steal out of the house, tear tracks down his mother’s face as she urges him to run, to run as fast as he can through the twisted trees.

    The same tears on her cheeks when her head is in his lap, blood staining her chest as his father is wrestled to the ground by guards in shining armour.

    His father’s wide eyes as he falls. As if he didn’t really expect, until the moment he was pushed, that this was really the end.

    The wind howls in the abyss below his feet. The rocks crumble and fall, and the edge of the precipice beckons.

    Summary

    “Tony, I don’t want to scare the bejesus out of you or anything, but you are, like the hero of every space opera ever. Seriously, I’m getting Captain Kirk, Paul Atreides, and Obi Wan Kenobi all rolled into one here. The young Obi Wan I mean.” Guide Angela Montenegro

    Guide Anthony DiNozzo thinks he's had his shot at bonding. He's met "his" sentinel and, for reasons that he doesn't want to talk about, he turned him down. That should be it. After all, if a person doesn't bond with their perfect match, they don't get another chance, right? Tony's former sentinel won't so much as consider bonding with another guide, even to treat his terminal illness.

    Leave it to Tony to break all the rules and in doing so, end up in the middle of a goddamned space opera, complete with politics, aliens, and his very own Space Force general.

    Okay, so technically, Major General Jonathan "Jack" O'Neill is Air Force, but by the time Tony is done, who knows, there may well be a sixth branch of the military. And who better to lead it than a guy who's saved Earth a few dozen times?

    Summary

    In which “blessed by Ulmo” means that Tuor and his line are skinchangers who turn into aquatic mammals. This changes nothing, except the things that it does. 300% fluff, feelings, and otters who just want to snuggle.
    Some are more interrelated than others, and things get mentioned across the timeline, but any of them should stand alone.

    There is also a spinoff series in the same universe, but which does not contain the skinchangers here.
