Hello,
I'd like your help to get the title and/or author of the following story/book:
A young man interrupts a ceremony in a surch to enslave an angel and a demon. During the fight the demon and angel become bonded to him. The demon become his girlfriend and later he has to fight several demons who try to kill him.

This started as a story posted somewhere ( I don't remember where) and was later published as an ebook.

Thank you

That sounds something like D.A. Porter would have written, his (or rather their) stories are posted on SOL, but unfortunately all three of the writers in the Porter family are deceased, so if the story is unfinished, it will probably remain so. (All of the unfinished plot lines were passed on to another writer, but as far as I know they have never been added to in any way.)
D.A.Porter's stories are at :
http://storiesonline.net/library/author ... sc&skip=10
perhaps it might have been 'A Modern Bard's Tale' at: http://storiesonline.net/s/47257 (Complete, but sequel unfinished)
or 'Chronicles of David' at: http://storiesonline.net/s/47303 (incomplete)
Those are two that seem somewhat similar to what you described.

An objective definition of "Political Correctness":

"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority, and
rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the
proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

here what i remember :
the story is about young man who made an AI he gets and female android body for the AI from his older brother.
his grand father invented spider bots and nanites that can repair and build anything.
he goes on to experiment creating power sources (? power crystals ?) under the influences of different stars (?)
his home government (? empire ?) gets attacked by an enemy to escape he uses the new power source he created.
the AI and the android uses the nanites to upgrade his body so its similar to the androids body partially to save his life.
he lands/crashes on earth.

ill be thankful if some one can remember the story.
or run a story text search on storiesonline for : "spider bots" or "spider bot" im pretty sure one of those phrases appeared in the story.
thanks.
This would probably be Scout by the Warlord on SOL

Ir's unfinished, and probably won't be, since the last update was in 2005.

Griffinmane wrote:I read a story I thought was by Frederick Pohl, but I can't find it on his bibliography. It was a sci-fi story about time travel. A guy who finds a letter in his attic in a trunk and it is addressed to him and has the current date to open. It has an odd tool in it and a letter from his great grandfather( or greater). He describes how one day in one of his fields he finds a guy working on a saucer. He talks to him for a while and leaves him to his work.

He returns latter and find the saucer gone and the tool with some blood on it. A few days later some clothes are stolen, and another guy shows up with his head bandaged. He works for the grandfather for 10 years or so and then disappears. The grandsons name is mentioned in their last conversation and that the tool should be left to him on a certain date.

The grandson ends up taking over another time traveling ship, and for some reason wants answers from one of the people who he got it from. he decides to confront the guy in the latter. He travels back a day before his grandfather finds the stranger and watches the sequence take place. Then using the tool sneaks up on the guy. I forget why but the grandson is knocked out with the tool and wakes up later to find the guy gone.

He goes back to his own ship which he submerged in the nearby river, and finds the entrance is covered by silt and he is unable to re-enter.

He ends up being the guy working for his grandfather, and leaves when someone is sent back to retrieve him.

Any ideas?
Its part of Clifford D. Simak's novel, Time and Again. Not a major part, it appears a good ways into the story, but I just took the book off the shelf and skimmed through until I found it, and its there.

Your right, I missed that, sorry about that. I also know it caused a bit of a squabble amongst his fans, but he had his reasons for doing it. I enjoyed his slightly warped sense of humour and I loved some of his stories - "Bodega" was a favourite.

Working with the landing page, I searched the Wayback Machine, and this is the most recent pre-purge page http://web.archive.org/web/201111160050 ... rg/~artie/, so Artie's stories can still be found. Yay!

I am looking for another story.

This one is about werewolves. the main character is a werewolf that didn't know he was a werewolf (and Alpha). But his friends in school were all were: a where-feline, a were-hyena and some werewolfs, and considered themsolves his pack. he falls in love with a girl that is scared of him (at the start of course) and ends up fighting the local alpha after the guy force-changed his sister and his girlfriend.

Any ideas?

It was not this one. In the story I am looking for the pack was multi-race. They even added a were-crocodile or alligator. But thank you

I know I have seen that story on SOL. Since I have a basic account there my searching is not great but it should be on that site somewhere.
