Stone to the Mound

Stone to the Mound

In the remote mountains of Appalachia, sixteen-year-old Daniel Cooper has an unusual talent. He's known in his rural community for his uncanny ability to throw stones with incredible speed and precision, even curving them mid-air to hit his target. For Daniel, this skill is simply a part of his life, used to hunt or entertain friends, until a fateful encounter changes everything. When James Larkin, a former professional baseball pitcher known as the “King of the Mound,” crashes his small plane near Daniel’s village, he stumbles upon Daniel displaying his extraordinary throwing abilities. Intrigued and sensing raw, untapped potential, James realizes he’s found a rare talent – one that could be honed for greatness on the baseball field. Driven by his own dreams of reviving a struggling high school team and haunted by memories of his glory days, James offers Daniel a chance to leave behind his quiet, isolated life and pursue a future he never imagined. But the path isn’t easy. As Daniel steps onto the baseball diamond for the first time, he faces challenges far beyond the stones he threw back home. He must learn to navigate the intricacies of the game, master a new kind of throw, and confront a world that’s both exhilarating and unforgiving. Alongside his newfound mentor, Daniel discovers that his greatest battle will be overcoming self-doubt and proving he belongs among those with far more polished skills and experience. Legacy on the Mound follows Daniel’s journey from a small-town underdog with a rural gift to a determined young man chasing an unexpected dream, inspired by a coach with his own story to tell. In this tale of mentorship, grit, and the unbreakable bond forged between coach and player, Daniel learns that with the right guidance, even the most unconventional talent can be a game-changer.

The Nordic Maiden of the Fairy Mound

The Nordic Maiden of the Fairy Mound

In the frozen reaches of the North, Astrid Egildottir of Vinterhall was raised to inherit more than a name. As heir to an ancient bloodline and the only daughter among eight brothers, she bore the weight of tradition, politics, and expectation. Bound by her grandfather’s will to marry Prince Leif of Verdelund, Astrid’s life was set to become a bridge between north and south—whether she wished it or not. But when the Verdelunds reveal themselves as vampires, the Winter Hall becomes a slaughterhouse. In one night, Astrid loses everything—her family, her shieldguard, her home. Betrayed and cornered, she is bitten by Leif and, in the same moment, attacked by a hidden Child of the Moon. The venom and the virus should have destroyed her. Instead, they awaken what lies dormant in her blood: the touch of the goddess Freyja. Reforged in agony and reborn beneath a violet full moon, Astrid rises as something new—neither vampire nor werewolf, but a hybrid bound by divine spark. She alone survives the massacre of Vinterhall, cursed with power, sharpened by grief, and carrying the ashes of her family on her shoulders. Now, the last daughter of a fallen house must carve her path through a world that will see her as monster, miracle, or weapon. The Hunters would see her destroyed. The Children of the Moon would see her as blasphemy. And the southern kingdoms will not suffer the North’s heir to live, not after the blood debt left in her wake. Astrid Vinterhall walks alone—haunted, hunted, and remade. But she is not broken. The purple moon has marked her, and the world will learn what it means to stand against the last of Vinterhall.

Author: What's Wrong? Deep Sea Ember, Author: Yuantong Chapter 19: Cultivation in the Chaotic World of Demonic Martial Arts, Author: Wenplagiarism 20:"Who told him to cultivate!" Author: The Whitest Crow The following is a detailed introduction of these novels: 1. Book of Troubled Times 7 Xiao Bai Shuang Wen had a more cliché setting. It could be used to pass time if it did not have high hardware requirements. After all, the author was an experienced writer, so his writing style was guaranteed. 🔥 The young man could enter the dream, but he couldn't kill anyone in the dream. He was tortured to death. Even though he died ten thousand times, his original heart didn't change. He still loved her like his first love. He was intoxicated in the dream every day, especially for Miss Ah Ke who liked backstabbing. 2."Spirit Realm Walker": From ancient times to the present, it is rumored that there is a Spirit Realm in the world... Yuanzi was a social bull, no…a proper university student. However, he was surrounded by Old Si Ji's OL, kind-hearted aunt, and sweet little green tea… He had unintentionally gotten involved in the dispute of the mysterious world, but he had managed to overcome it with a high-level attitude. And…there was no genius that an S class spirit realm expert could not resolve. If there was, then there would be two… [Tagged: Unlimited Style, Original Dungeon, Ruined Idiom] 3."The Tang's Table": Another masterpiece by Second Brother. The results were obvious to all. She had been in the top 10 of the monthly votes all year round. Everyone came to admire how Yunchu built the ultimate Chang 'an ~~~ 4. King of Familiars: Interesting/Good In this new era of familiars, who could become the well-deserved king of familiars? 5:"Fairy, Please Listen to My Explanation": This novel could be said to be better than 99% of the authors. Be it the writing style, the plot, or the female lead, they were all excellent. However, the biggest flaw was that the updates were too slow, but it did not affect the reading. Many readers regarded it as a standard, and the results were excellent. The female lead made many readers lose their minds. They looked forward to the appearance of the female lead every day. It could be said that the author had written the female lead out of her mind. 6. National Forensic Medicine: Niao Chun's new book should be in the same series as Doctor Ling Ran. Dissecting a corpse and sending the dead was quite an interesting cheat. It could occasionally help solve cases. 7:"Heroine Wait": Guan Guan's new work has already become the work of the Twelve Heavenly Kings. Its results should be the highest since the beginning of writing. Basically, it's still a continuation of the previous style. There's no problem with having more female leads. I hope Guan Guan will continue to work hard. There aren't many authors who don't feel depressed. 8."Mantang Colorful Scenery" The bizarre cousin's new historical novel, the opening plot was compact and eye-catching. [Author's impression] Level 5 authors were very strong and would soon become gods. 9."Hidden Dead Corner": Get lost. New book, opening mech, decisive killing, millions of words, worth reading! Final Divine Duty: 7.0 This book was also an upgrade, but it was written at a relatively high level. The writing style of this book was smooth, the plot was smooth, and the reading experience was good. In terms of the plot, the main character became stronger quickly and the process was pleasant. The system data and the speed at which he became stronger were better integrated, and the improvement was sufficient. The plot was smooth. When it was time to kill someone to show off or solve an incident, he was not soft-hearted or hesitant. He grasped the essence of the leveling novel. "Beyond Time":"Beyond Time" was a Xianxia classic. The author, Er Gen, showed his unique talent when writing this work. The plot of this novel was compact and fascinating, making people want to finish reading it in one go. The main character was decisive, not a saint, not a set of tricks. He had broken away from the comical route of the previous works. There was a hint of the shadow of the rebellious immortal and the devil, which reminded people of the works before Er Gen's. This novel was not only a Xianxia novel, but also a work that made people think deeply. It makes us think about the difference between life and death, about the possibility of transcending life and death, and about what we are waiting for outside of time. This is a work that is worth reading. I strongly recommend it to everyone. 12:"This Game Is Too Real": This is the first book I read by Chen Xing. At first, I felt that it had a faint taste of "Super God Mechanic". Perhaps it was because of the setting. In short, the content was good, but I felt an inexplicable sense of impulsiveness when I reached chapter 180. Perhaps it was because of me, so I should push this book to everyone. Those who don't like to follow updates suggest to wait a little longer. This book is a little short. "Red Heart Sky Patrol":"Red Heart Sky Patrol" is an amazing novel. Every volume is closely connected. Every character that appears plays an important role in the plot. Every twist is rigorous and well-founded. The author's talent lay in laying down and undoing foreshadowing, as well as the description of each character's personality. This book was not without brains. The plot was rigorous, there were many twists, and the characters had distinct personalities. It was definitely a divine work. I accidentally flipped through this book and felt something when I started reading it. This book was definitely not cliché. The author's writing was excellent, and the world he constructed was also very grand. Jiang Wang's image as a genius youth was also very attractive. His unyielding determination and his determination to patrol the sky with his Red Heart left a deep impression on people. This book is definitely an excellent Xianxia novel. I strongly recommend it to everyone! Ring of Fate: The Secret World Part 2 In the year 1368, at the end of July, Crimson would descend from the sky. The fastest four-star Glory product. After witnessing the end of the Battle of Jingnan, Jiang Xinghuo, who was the target of the Ten Clans Execution, finally heaved a sigh of relief. As a veteran transmigrator, he could return to the modern world for eternal life after transmigrating for nine lifetimes. Jiang Xinghuo, who felt that he was about to succeed, was so bored that he began to teach in prison, but it seemed that something was wrong... Ma Sanbao: What is the Great Voyage Era in On Sea Power? [Yao Guangxiao: On the Fate of a Nation is actually the legendary dragon-slaying technique!] Zhu Gaochi: I haven't finished talking about the silver standard in the History of Chinese Money. Jiang Xing Huo: "I'm going to be beheaded tomorrow. I'll tell you the rest of the lesson in your dreams." At this moment, the walls of the Imperial Jail collapsed and a voice sounded. "Mr. Jiang, I am Zhu Di. Please be the state preceptor!" "Ascending on a Better Day": Rating: 4 stars Otaku Pig's New Book ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As a snake hunter, Xu Ying had always been honest and diligent until this day when he caught a different snake… On the first day of the third month, incense was burning everywhere in the Divine Land. The statues that protected the villages, towns, cities, and counties woke up one after another to enjoy the sacrifices of the people. However, from that day onwards, the world was in chaos. "Who's in Love After Rebirth?""Who's in Love After Rebirth?" was an unforgettable novel. At the beginning of the story, the readers thought that the heroine would pursue the goal of being the richest man in the world, but they did not expect that the heroine would give up so quickly. In the story, the part about his career almost became the background, but this did not affect the overall sweet atmosphere. The way the author handled the two main characters was outstanding, making people envious of their friendship. The writing style of this book was excellent, the plot was smooth, and the author's style was admirable. It was one of the few well-written works. After the readers finished reading, they couldn't help but sigh. This book could be said to be the most popular novel in the world of sweet literature recently, and it was unforgettable. I hope the author can get better and better! On that day, the thick fog sealed everything. On that day, he became the captain of a ghost ship. On that day, he crossed the thick fog and faced a world that had been completely overturned and shattered. The order of the past was gone, and strange visions dominated the endless sea beyond civilization. The isolated island cities and the fleets that challenged the sea had become the only lights of the civilized world, while the shadows of the past were still stirring in the deep sea, waiting to continue to devour the dying world. However, for the new captain of the Lost Home, there was only one problem he had to consider first. Who knew how to sail the boat? [Water] The article copies the new book, the fast food refreshes the article, the quantity is big, the tube is full. [Re-evaluation] It was on sale today, and the quantity was as large as before. If you like the longevity style, you can try it out. It's still satisfying to read it as a cool novel. "Who told him to cultivate!" Promotion: No female lead, three views are correct, IQ is online, easy to make fun of, brainstorming and refreshing. The main character's brain was always so beautiful and unconventional. It gave people the feeling that it could be like this, but there was something wrong with it. It was a very funny positive energy main character. Of course, an author who could solve three problems was also outstanding. The immortal cultivation setting seemed to follow the usual cognition and was easy to watch, but in many settings, the imagination was wide open. PS: The author's three views are hilarious and invincible. The style is similar. If you like one, you can watch the other. You can read these novels on Qidian Chinese Network.

Is the sand dune a fish mound?
A sand dune was not a fish mound. Dune was the name of a science fiction novel and movie that told a story that happened in the distant future. The story takes place on a planet covered in deserts. This planet is the sole producer of spices, the Empire's most important resource. Spices were described in the story as having special uses and effects. The story of Dune was set in a future world where a feudal empire established by humans ruled over many planets. In this world, advanced technology such as artificial intelligence was completely banned. As for Fish Mound, the search results did not mention any information related to it, so it was impossible to determine whether the sand dunes were related to Fish Mound.
