Woo-who, next chapter is #100, wow! milestone, ... and the Invictus races to the Kintark - Terra battle, I hope they make it in time, .... Good luck guys!

It is too bad that John and the girls didn't visit the Vulkat Queen a month or two earlier, then John could've had the Ashanath make few tons of Eternity Crystals, and have those crystal savvy Maliri fabricate a few 10's of thousands of improved Heat Sinks, which along with the Maliri's old/replaced power cores would massively upgrade the T-Fed fleet ships, especially if the Maliri throw in a whole bunch of their Shield Modulators, .... this would be a big but quick fleet(s) upgrade, .... all before Calara teaches her master class in how to beat your enemy, ....

-- Buckingham (crazy/snapped) is out, and John Blake is your friend, along with the mysterious Maliri, ... just wishful thinking, ... ;-) ttfn

Michael56SmithMichael56Smith9 months ago

Okay, they are in a big rush, running short on time, .... but they are also going into battle, I would think that to upgrade / reshape the CA armor a bit would pay dividends in the fight to come, ... but even another 30 minutes on the hostile planet could cost them lots of Terran lives the next day, ... so I can see why they never went that route, ... but it would've been nice, ...

--- And welcome aboard Helene, ntmu, ... ;-) ttfn

... and is Jade getting rather Blaise about not really listening to John, or is she just getting really good at doing what he wants without him saying it? .... between her and the naughty Matriarch, Alyssa, those girls will drive poor John into the arms of the Maliri, ... Maybe Jade needs to be a Matriarch too, ... John already has two Matriarch's so what's one more? ;-) ttfn

a complex storyline leading up to chapter #100 (milestone) and a major conflict, space battle, that will be so much fun to read, ... the Vulkat (giant Zombie Cyborg Spiders) were sad, but a delight for the crew (after her bad feelings broadcast was ceased), also, the Spider Queens gifts of all the Vulkat technology and the Eternity Crystals was just amazing, ... a really good chapter, thank you, ... ;-) TTFN

How are they going to make it in time, and what about the Kirrik?

Michael56SmithMichael56Smithover 1 year ago

Wow! Improved energy weapons and shields, Mermaids and Huge Zombie Cyborg Spiders! (So Sad) And the darn ole Kintark are attacking the Terra-Federation, again! Time crunch, with Invictus blasting its way back into Terran space. There was so much in this chapter, and this chapter #99 is primarily the set-up chapter for the big space battle to come, in chapter #100! (Yay! Milestone!),.. so much fun to read! Except for the sad Zombie Giant Spiders (still Yuck) ;-) TTFN

AnonymousAnonymousover 1 year ago

The emotional swell and transition from something so grotesque and ubiquitously disturbing into a heartbreaking tragedy...approaching the 100th chapter I'm blown away at your writing talent. Thanks for such a complex storyline that is so much more than the reason it's on this website. This must take up so much of your energy and time but I don't think I've ever been as engaged in a sci-fi story as this one. Looking forward to the next hundred!

boredhandsboredhandsabout 2 years ago

The Vulkat situation was truly sad. I can understand Nikirrit's conflict between a painless end and healing. Even though this is my second time reading, it was very moving. SMH, the bots must have not cleaned the room in a while, it's dusty ;)

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

The spider part made me have tears.

Still wonder if they need to process that fuel or just use it directly?

So sad for the Vulkat, John needs to give one of the girls time travel, so they can do a Star Trek IV and go back in time and bring some back to repopulate the species. Grrrgge and Grrrccee.

Going to echo some of the comments on the Zombie Spider Queen. I was kinda hoping she'd be cool and not icky and was sooo happy when it turned out to be the case, although I wish there had been a way for her to find redemption....maybe in a future chapter?

Magnificent. On To #100.

Tefler, just have to say thank you for the pure enjoyment of reading this magnificent and totally absorbing epic. Never imagined when started reading the first chapter of a story titled "TSM" that I would still be reading at 99 chapters and become so addicted to its characters and their world. Bravo. Bravo. Bravo. Go Invictus. πŸš€

To Anon:

You said: "Anyone else sick of people commenting about stories before they are published? Post that nonsense on whatever private board you want but expressing how great something is when it isn't publicly available is a spoiler."

It is most definitely NOT a spoiler. I didn't tell you anything about what occurs in the chapter.

Finally: you need to chill. This is a free board....meaning you don't pay for squat. Enjoy your free ride and appreciate what Tefler does for you. AND be thankful he still is willing to GIVE you the fruits of his hard work. What you did is more akin to somone hitch hicking and then complaining that the apolstery is not leather.

Size Matters?

There have been some questions upstream about how the Amazon versions of the story differ from the posts here (and Patreon and SOL since the 3 are basically the same). The first 10 chapters were just over 77k words while the Amazon version is just over 86k and chapters 11-20 here are a little under 107k while the Amazon ones are just under 120k.

For comparison ch99 is just over 31k and ch100 just over 93k.

Excited to see ch 100 up for moderation. Hopefully it will be up by the weekend.

I have been reading TSM for 6 months now, and am posting for the first time to say a massive thanks to Tefler for giving us a rollercoaster of a story that has kept us enthralled for so long.

I just want to add that I am boggeled by some of the negative comments posted. Is the story "perfect", maybe not, but to have written such an epic space opera and allowed us to enjoy it for free, well, I have to take my hat off to you.

You have inspired me to take the plunge and try and write something myself. You never know, you my see me post here on Literotica in the near future !

How far this has come

Seriously Tef, this is incredible. I remember when this was little more than a run of the mill sci fi story with an oversized cock and a captive 18 year old. Now you've managed to construct a true Epic, complete with politics and scandals all around. I eagerly await the next chapter. The only issue? I'm conflicted. Part of me wants to know how this story ends but part of me never wants it to

Good News

I am not sure if this news is correct but i signed for patreon sorry couldn't pay for it i just can't afford as much at the moment and since the most refined version comes here so why

Anyways back to the point i saw the title 100 (complete) and i just assumed it to be the final edited copy hiding_in_portland talked about so looks like he has either already submitted to the moderators or is going to in a couple of days so whatever the case is hopefully it should be out really soon

Chapter 100

Patreon has the message that Tefler has released chapter 100 there for the paying users.

That means that in about 10 days this chapter will be submitted to this site, where the moderators will take over the story. So maybe a before we are able to read this epic chapter.

Thanks in advance and congratulations with the release of this chapter Tefler. I hope there will come a number of chapters after this milestone...

Pat vs Lit vs Amz

Tefler does post a final edited copy on Pat before submitting it here. The ones on Amazon are like you said, compilations but they do sometimes have additional content, and editing to increase the flow of the story. Yeah I've been reading on all three sites.

cummer_elitecummer_eliteabout 6 years ago

Its consists of three parts ,that's why it took so long,I was worried that he wasn't gonna post them on literotica.Keep up the amazing work tefler ,I really love this story,don't ever stop writing.......πŸ™‚πŸ™‚πŸ™‚πŸ˜˜πŸ˜

okibi8882okibi8882about 6 years ago
Lit/SOL vs Patreon vs Amazon version

So this epic of a story is currently being posted in 4 locations, and the content (at least to some extent) differ in 3 of them. As it has been explained previously by Tefler and others, chapters are first posted on Patreon (paid subscription site, think where patrons can pay as little as $1 per chapter) hot off the keyboard. Next, after it is edited to Tefler's liking it is the posted here and SOL for free. The version you see on Amazon are compilations of previous chapters posted here that have gone through further editing before being published. I believe the first book is chapter 1-10 and book 2 is 11-20. Tefler mentioned he is currently working on editing book 3 for Amazon as well.

So essentially what you see on Patreon is not what you see here on Lit, you can think of it as an incomplete or draft of what gets submitted here.

Tefler

Alright i finally managed to get through no 99

I was the one who first asked those 3 questions regarding the books available on amazon

Previously i was at 95 when i commented and i had a hunch this story is incomplete

Tefler firstly i am eagerly waiting for no 100

Also if the novels have the complete story i am ready to purchase them if i can from india where it isn't available well the total costs $8 which equals to β‚Ή560 i am ready to pay $16=β‚Ή1120 for them but only if these assumptions are all true

1)novels have the complete storyline

2) the hit this site last after going through patroen although i don't have any idea what patreon is

3) since they hit here last they have been refined to the max writing ability so they have the finesse of the best this story can be

Unless someone can give me a convincing explanation of why i shouldn't i am ready to buy the novels at the maximum price i stated and of course keep in mind that i need it in india (if someone offers for the delivery)

Lastly i have seen so many incomplete stories on this site that i read the ending first to make sure that its a complete story better than being disheartened with an incomplete one (by the way finest work ever seen on this site by me)

P. S. Tefler i must warn you i deliver very potent curses and i curse you that if you leave this story incomplete than you shall never get the true potential of the promise this story holds for you as an author and this story itself.

All said if anyone wishes to get in touch regarding the novels on amazon :- Elonpaul9@gmail.com

John BlackhawkJohn Blackhawkabout 6 years ago
One other point i forgot to make....

With the technological gap between our heroes and the BSP there's one other point i forgot to make. If the BSP forces manage to board invictus with boarding troops it would be extraordinarily bad. Because you have to remember they're a handfull of people on what is let's call it a "light aircraft carrier" with the ship weapons of a "dreadnaught" My basic point is they're under crewed relying solely on their technological advantages.

Now i know what people are going to say they have those enshuu sound cannons mounted in the ceiling and those armored firing stations that fold out from the floor. While they do provide advantages they'll only work for so long. What i mean by this is once the boarding troops put together there are cannons along the ceiling they will start being ready for them and blast them the moment they pop out.

With the armored firing stations i picture they have, something like that would highly depend on controlling when the firing stations flip up and fold back in the floor. The basic problem is if the boarding troops manage to break through the computer defenses their advantage becomes the enemy's advantage.

Unknown electronic entity in Brimorian computer system

If I remember correctly, there was some speculation that the ancient electronic being in the Brimorian’s computer system that Irillith hacked might be from the Vulkat. But while re-reading that chapter I noticed that the entity had six limbs, while the Vulkat are eight legged, so I doubt it’s of Vulkat origin.

I backed up about 40 chapters and read them again, but now I’ve caught back up and I’m dying of anticipation. Maybe I should take up needlepoint while I’m waiting?

Thanks TEF! Thanks for sucking me into John’s universe and never wanting it to end!

Keep in mind

Most other authors churn out a book in a series about 1 a year. Be happy Tefler churns then out at roughly 1 book every 2 to 3 months. I’m amazed he puts them out so quickly while keeping the quality the same or better. Plus he’s doing this for free here.

Thanks to the Patreon supporter that are funding Tefler’s full time writing. I’ll have to buy the Amazon books to help support this author. It’s a serial story that I don’t want to end.

TheTorontoGuyTheTorontoGuyabout 6 years ago
Re: Taking Longer and Longer

First, the wait is long this time because the upcoming chapter is 30 Literotica pages long. Tefler wanted to do something special for Chapter 100, but more importantly, he didn't want to split up the upcoming battle in the middle of the fighting.

Secondly, authors don't owe us anything -- especially authors of free content. If George R.R. Martin never finishes his Game of Thrones series (and that's a very real possibility) fans will be disappointed, but there was a never a guarantee on the dust jacket of the first book that he would do so. If people want to ensure they get finished stories, they need to read finished stories.

Thirdly, the Patreon patrons are big fans and excited. Most of them that come here are excited for us to get to read the next chapters. However, The chapters come out here at the exact same pace at they do there. Otherwise, they would be up to chapter 130 or something by now. We have read 99 chapters here and they have read 100 chapters. I am not a Patreon subscriber, but I want to see Tefler do well financially with his writing. It gives him even more incentive than he already has to keep doing it. (Although he was already one of those most prolific writers on here or anywhere else that you are going to find. At two million words and counting, this story is already 20 novels in length.) He resisted going on Patreon, but his fans pushed him to do it. His fans were also eager for the story in book form. He is simply responding to them. He has had people tell him he should give all his attention to Patreon, but he is loyal to his fans here. (Plus, it's a way to reach a broader audience.) So yeah, sometimes the Patreon fans can be a little unintentionally insensitive, but they are just fans and this is the internet. It happens. As I have said before, go read Star Wars or Star Trek forums and you will see what I mean.

Finally, and most importantly -- Really? You obviously have enjoyed the story if you are 99 chapters in, and you are bitching in comments of almost all fans. If you are 12 years old - fine. If not, try a little maturity -- it goes a long way.

TheTorontoGuyTheTorontoGuyabout 6 years ago
Amazon Books

I bought the first Amazon book. I have read the story twice on Lit. I am not on Patreon. I've not compared the book page-by-page. Nor did I read Lit and the book back-to-back. So, here are my general impressions. As far as I know the book versions are not on Patreon.

As others have said, the first difference was just cleaning up the writing. This is everything from typos to wording. The second change was to improve and expand descriptions of some things. I believe that Karon (the mining asteroid where Alyssa is from) is described in more detail for example. Finally, I believe there small insertions of a few paragraphs and the like just adding a bit more colour to the story. So, a character we learn a lot more about later might get a brief introduction before meeting the main characters when the time comes down the road.

I don't think there were any plot sections added. If there were, they didn't stand out.

So, get the books (or at least the first book) if you want something that has cleaner writing, better descriptions and other small touches, if you want an easier way to read the story , or if you want to support Tefler. Unless someone corrects me, if you don't get the books, you won't miss any new significant plot points.

If you want a book. You can find me on gmail at 'charitytreks'. I will buy it for you and I will add your Kindle or KindleforPC(Mac) as a device in my account. I offered to do the same for those without access to Patreon.

AnonymousAnonymousabout 6 years ago
Amazon vs. Patreon

Here's something that confuses me: If I were to become a patron, which version of the story would I see? The literotica version, or the updated Amazon version? Does Tefler reupload the new versions to Patreon, or do the patrons have to buy the Amaxon versions as well? Because I can't buy the books on Amazon with my account for some reason. They're just listed as unavailable for purchase, which I suspect is because I originally made an Amazon US account, but when Amazon opened their Kindle section in my country, the account somehow got migrated, and now Amazon US recognizes my account but doesn't let me buy anything.... So I need to know this.

Amazon by Anon

No the Amazon books are longer and better than the Lit chapters.

lmagine chapters 1-10 brought together with a focus on polishing the grammar and word choice, tightening sub-plots and introducing new scenes and dialogue that add to the interest.

You would appreciate the difference.

Editing

"Is the finished story posted here different from what is released on patreon? "

As soon as I finish writing a chapter, I post it on Patreon. I then spend a few days editing the chapter, fixing spelling mistakes or continuity errors, or adding scenes that my editors or patrons suggest.

I broke chapter 100 up into three parts (It's just over 90k words). For the second part I added several scenes showing Melkadian's reactions to events in the battle. For the third part, I rewrote a fight scene and tweaked several more based on feedback I'd received.

Once I'm happy with the chapter, I then post it to literotica. So yes, the finished version is sometimes different from the one straight off my keyboard. How much it changes depends on editor and patron feedback. :-)

I'm a bit of a stickler for fair behaviour about that sort of thing, and a delay before we get to read it is nothing bad at all. It only hurts for this chapter because this huge chapter took a long time, so we're all impatient to read it. Soon enough we'll get our fix.

Tefler, I hope you remember about this site's delays in posting, so hand them the chapter a bit before the 20th? Please?

And please, never hide the ending of a story behind a pay wall. Authors who do that (at least without announcing such when they start the story) deserve all the hate in the world and their karma will surely torture them forever. :P Delays are fine though.

Take sifidave's comments with a grain of salt

Hi, don't want to start a war, but as someone who read the recommended by sifidave series, I suggest avoiding "In Her Name". It's basically the first Mass Effect Trilogy - basically good for 90%, but (subjectively) terrible ending. These books angered me so much I've typed out this entire list to help you avoid my mistake. If you want great (again, subjectively) sci-fi recommendations while TSM is being written, here's a short list:

Michael-Scott Earle - has a bunch of really great stuff, but the "Star Justice" is probably the closest to TSM in nature. If you like dark fantasy, check out "The Destroyer" series. The author recently got into the LitRPG genre and has written some good stuff in that. "Space Knight" and "Lion's Quest" are pretty darn good, as well as "Death Ship" (a little rough for now) and "Dragon Slayer", the last two which appear to be harem based.

E. William Brown - the "Daniel Black" series is fantasy, but also harem based. Excellently written and great read. For sci-fi, check out his "Alice Long" series, it's also pretty great, although he's only written one book so far in it.

Elliott Kay - this author started on Literotica with his fantasy "Good Intentions" series (harem-style), which is very good and he also has a great sci-fi series called "Poor Man's Fight". Have a read.

J.A. Cipriano - "The Legendary Builder" is a harem-style fantasy series that is a lot of fun and similar in tone to TSM, although it is written in the LitRPG style. "Kingdom of Heaven", "King of the Gods", and the "World Of Ruul" series is also worth a read. He also has a bunch of co-author credits, the best of which so far is the "Her Angels" series written with Erin Bedford - a reverse-harm book which was really fun.

Jan Stryvant - basically anything by this guy. He has a one-shot book called "Shadow" that's based on a super-hero filled world but his more famous and great flagship is called the "Valen's Legacy". An urban fantasy harem series definitely worth reading.

Morgan Blayde - The "Demon Lord" series is a really damn good urban fantasy series with a harem. I'll admit my personal politics make the main character feel abrasive at times, but still worth it.

Not harem, but still worth reading:

Fel - unfortunately only one of two free authors on this list, this author is incredible. Just about everything he writes is amazing. Highly, highly recommend checking out his sci-fi "Subjugation" series and his fantasy "Sennadar" series. On a personal note, the "In Her Name" books only wished they were as good as "Subjugation".

Mike C. Cropo - "A Spartan's War" one of the most epic series I've read (and the other free series), it's unfortunately looking like it will remain unfinished due to the author recently passing away. A little rough, but very engaging.

Jim Butcher - "The Dresden Files". A wonderful urban fantasy book series - highly recommended.

S. H. Jucha - "The Silver Ships" series, if you like stuff like Star Trek, then this series is excellent.

John Conroe - similar in tone to TSM, although not a harem-style, the "Demon Accords" urban fantasy series is some of the best fantasy stuff I've read. Highly recommended.

Ken Lange - you should check out his book series. The "Vigiles Urbani Chronicles" and "Warden Global" are great and interesting urban fantasy reads.

Ben S. Reeder - "The Demon's Apprentice" urban fantasy series is probably some of the best Young Adult stuff I've read in a long time. Really well written and worth your time.

Andrew S. Ball - "The Contractors", a great series start, but unfortunately only one book with an unknown sequel years in the works. Still worth a read.

Darian Smith - "Agents Of Kalanon" - a good fantasy series worth checking out.

Elliott J. Saul - "Pax Arcana", fantastic fantasy series, similar in tone to the "Dresden Files". Definitely check it out.

Glynn Stewart - a really good author, most of his stuff is worth reading. I find his style a little off sometimes, but that might be a personal problem. His flagship series, the "Starship Mage" is probably his best, but there are some gems here as well like the "Duchy of Terra". "Onset" just finished and while I think the ending was a little weak, overall really good.

Leod D. Fitz - the "Corpse Eater Saga" - usually not my cup of tea, this horror based series is really good too.

Jason Rose - a new author, but his first book is pretty good. The "Arcane Justice" series is a good read.

S. K. Dunstall - The "Linesman" this sister co-authors series is some great sci-fi.

Shemer Kuznits - "New Era Online" - another LitRPG series, but the first book was really interesting and worth reading.

Helene and the forgotten must be half breeds

The Brimorians are obsessed with people/beings who are half-breeds.

This showed up in 2 places where insults were hurled and in both cases the target was accused of being a half-breed.

I predict the the forgotten are half Brimorian and half human. Or 3/4 Brimorian.

They look a lot like humans with hair and all. They can breath under water (they must have gills) and the old language is Terran Standard. Languages change over a few hundred years so they can't be from thousands of years ago. They were left behind in the recent war.

No other alternative

I have such a hard time finding another story to read, Tefler you spoiled me rotten with ur crystal clear depictions and real time story flow. There is just no story to compete with or be as pleasurable read as TSM. Cant wait for the TV series to come out next year...

Compliments. Whizzrex

While I'm waiting

I'm going to start from chapter one today as I'm getting to anxious to wait any longer for chapter 100, just shows how addicted we are to TSM and there's really nothing else out there as good as TSM. this will also give me a chance to vote for each chapter all over again, I know I can just go back and vote for them all anyway but I need to stay busy while we wait.

How many will join me in rereading TSM from the beginning and vote for them all????
