  • Favorites 28 stories - 7 unread chapters Formerly "Favourites," but I'm biased towards American English


  • Read It Later 267 stories Hoo boy, how long before I empty this? Also, on a personal note, I'm going to leave the crime fiction unread for now.


  • Tracking 10 stories - 79 unread chapters For incomplete stories only


  • Crime fiction 3 stories Mysteries, police procedurals, and so on


  • Random 21 stories Or, stories that are the literary equivalent of asdfmovie


  • Psychological 13 stories Stories that involve existential and, yes, psychological crises. Think Stephen King and Alan Wake


  • Daring Do 70 stories aka A. K. Yearling, Dazzle, Mare-ion Ravenhoof, Compass Rose, and best pony


  • Slice of life 28 stories The so-called "boring" genre


  • Adventure 62 stories A genre of broad categories.


  • Emotional 24 stories By which I mean sad or tragedy or anything feely


  • Medium-grade grimdark 14 stories No, Apple Bloom's not really dead. She's just knocked out cold…I hope….


  • Perpetually incomplete 3 stories For stories that may never be completed, but have a place in my heart (gosh, that was so cheesy)


  • Comedy 24 stories For more formulaic and less random stories, as opposed to the...um..."Random" bookshelf


  • Thriller 10 stories Thriller, thriller, faster than lightning… Wait no, that’s Flipper.


  • Romance 15 stories I normally don't read or enjoy romance, so it's quite an achievement for an author if his/her shipping fanfic gets my approval.


  • Horror 5 stories The black color setting makes the icons very hard to see in the library view….


  • Sci-Fi 1 stories Isn't it paradoxical how science fiction is always scrutinized to standards of science fact?


  • Drama 12 stories For extra effect, say the name of this bookshelf in your hammiest voice.

A.K. Yearling, known as Daring-Do in the world of explorers and adventurers, and her friend Leaf Wind are assigned a task by Princess Luna to travel to Saddle Arabia and search for an ancient and presumed destroyed library. What they discover beneath the shifting and sweltering sands may very well redefine the history of Equestria, it might even possibly define its future. One thing's for sure, though, Leaf and Daring's relationship will never be the same.

Takes place around the same time as Witching Hour's story "Steady as She Flies" as well as the end of Calm Wind's story "Flying Sky High"

She needed help, she wanted help, but she just couldn't have help... There was a feeling in her gut that pulled her to remain in that porcelain prison. Would this be her final adventure? - By A.K. Yearling... Definitely NOT based on a true event.

One-Shot.

This is the first of a three part series.

Every chapter is its own story, child friendly, in the style of the show. All arcing together to form one massive adventure. Not so much chapters, as multiple short stories tying into one massive saga.

These are all based in the 'Almanac Daring Do Universe', my own Daring Do universe that follows the series extremely closely, but allows me a little leeway with creative content without constantly relying on ever expanding canon causing difficulties. ^-^

Each book is short as they are made for kids primarily, but I hope many bronies enjoy them as well.
Hardback merchandise of these books will be available in time and the first is already available. Details can be found at my deviantart: http://almanacpony.deviantart.com/

I have an official editor that aids me in keeping the flow good, grammar decent and everything else a high quality, however he is having some difficulties right now and is a few books behind. So please don't be too harsh on some slight mistakes in the later books.
They will be corrected in time. :)

I hope you enjoy each book, and I sincerely hope you give me plenty of feedback.

In the capital of Prance, Daring Do is breaking the law to go underground to find thirty missing paintings that six soldiers took into the catacombs, only to be never seen again. She gets a guide and a Paris resident named Crawl Space to help her navigate through the city's dark underbelly to hopefully find out what happened to those soldiers long ago.
What Daring didn't expect, was that she discovered something that could challenge everything they knew about all of Earth's early history. Something that might predate the royal sisters.

When an old ruin is unearthed under Ponyville, it will take the boldest and most adventurous of ponies to dare sound its depths. Daring Do knows she's such a pony.

So what if she's eight and a half, and Dad says she can't go? That's a big age to reach, and he doesn't have to find out. So what if millennia-old dangers and secrets lurk in the darkness? That's the point of adventures.

She's got a saddlebag full of useful tools, countless stories telling her what ought to happen, and her Mom's old helmet. You don't need much more for your first adventure than that.

Starlight Glimmer's defeat at the hooves of the Elements of Harmony did nothing to crush her dreams of a harmonious, mark-less society, but it taught her a lot about the power of the forces that opposed her. If she was going to have a chance of showing Equestria the true path to harmony, she had to find a way to amass enough power to go hoof-to-hoof with Princess Twilight and her cronies.

This search for power leads Starlight to the Staff of Comet Tail, a weapon wielded by one of the most powerful unicorns in Equestrian history. With such a weapon by her side, nopony could challenge her authority, and she could bring enlightenment and happiness to the ponies of Equestria without opposition.

Starlight immediately embarks on a quest to find Comet Tail's staff, but she fails to take into account who might find her along the way...
