14	''The Mystery Sphere'' is a WebSerialNovel about Ryney, a {{Pirate}} with poison running through his veins, who is accused of stealing a [[BlueBlood nobleman's]] [[OurDragonsAreDifferent dragon]]. The story is also a FairPlayWhodunnit, but done in a fantasy setting. WordOfGod says that AWizardDidIt will not be used. It has an interactive component [[PaintingTheMedium that makes sense in-universe]] that allows readers to suggest what the detective will do.

16	Surprisingly entertaining with a quirky plot and a non-orthodox GreatDetective. It can best be described as ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' [[JustForFun/XMeetsY meets]] Franchise/SherlockHolmes. It can be read [[http://www.themysterysphere.com/p/story.html here.]]
