Yours Celestially by Al Hess

After divorce, death, and having his reformatted soul uploaded into a new body, Sasha expected resurrection to be a fresh start. His time spent in digital Limbo with the program's cheeky AI guardian angel, Metatron, was cathartic, but what good is a second life when he only sees his daughter on the weekends, he has all the same problems he had before he died, and he can't seem to shake the ache for the married life he lost? If that weren't frustrating enough, a glitch in the program has given Sasha the ability to sense Metatron even outside of Limbo. And Metatron is in love. The angel's sickly-sweet yearning for one of the souls still in Limbo has turned Sasha's stomach into caramelized lead. It's hard enough to move on without someone else's feelings making the emptiness in his own life even more acute.

Clear Your Shit: Prophecies and Quests

So my diligent web spiders were able to obtain a copy of the prophecies for saving the kingdom of Shelfla. I think they managed to sneak them away from the wizard without getting singed, so here goes:

(1) Read the book which is smallest in size;

(2) The tome which has dwelt longest before thine eyes;

(3) Next a scroll of groups, heists, found family, or otherwise.

(4) Tackle a volume with creatures galore;

(5) A tome which has dropped your heart to the floor;

(6) Then something frightening to even the score.

(7) A mysterious monster next will appear, prepare a special book to preserve you here.

(8) Peruse a volume which you obtained for free;

(9) Then one from a land where dragons here be.

(10) Some tome which has threatened to empty your purse;

(11) Now something quite pretty (are you glitter-averse?).

(12) Magic and spells will be your friend too.

(12a) (If you've already read The Scapegracers, bully for you.)

(13) The ocean deep and blue is your new guide;

(14) For oncoming battle pick someone on an opposing side.

(15) Your past friends have already found what comes next;

(16) But weirdly for this you don't know what to expect.

(17) A wild adversary has arrived! Have something ready so you don't need to hide.

(18) The choice is yours, a book or a nap;

(19) But hurry, you must then obtain a map.

(20) The most ancient of tomes calls to you;

(21) You've covered "old" and "blue", now get "borrowed" and "new".

(22) Glimmer and shine within and without;

(23) Read a free book, don't sit this out.

(24) The future is murky and much is unknown, but the final battle is yours alone.
