Katie is summoned to another world, but the mages responsible quickly realize it was a mistake — they only needed the Hero accidentally summoned alongside her. They send her on a simple fetch quest: retrieve a sword from down the hall and she'll be home in five minutes. When a goddess's blessing takes her wish for adventure rather too literally, Katie finds herself lost in a dark cave, far from the sword and far too close to a population of giant bugs. This is a dark LitRPG adventure in which Katie loses as often as she wins — sometimes with horrific consequences. Luckily, she's not the sort to let a gruesome death or two get her down, and is prepared to try again and again to complete her simple fetch quest.

The gods don't play dice with the universe; they play Board & Conquest. Wepwawet, young god of wolves and scouts, is given a task to prove himself worthy of becoming a major god: form a new pantheon with other junior deities, manage a young civilization on a newborn world, and train mortal Champions to resist an inevitable Titan Incursion. Being saddled with an ice-covered barbarian village besieged from all sides isn't ideal, but it's now his duty to transform this ragtag bunch of misfits into the most formidable force the world of Elphion has ever seen. It doesn't matter how many of his fellow gods want his head on a spike, how many Miracles cards he has to collect, or how many uppity dragons and minions with attitude he has to manage — Wepwawet has never backed from a challenge and he isn't starting now. He was already a god; now, he'll have to become the god.

A bloodmage born in shadows, a shapeshifter no one can predict, a survivor in a world set against him. Thalion's life as a marine biologist was modest in wealth but rich in joy — until the System arrived, sending everyone on Earth into a tutorial while merging the planet with four others. The System granted people magic and even ways to defy time itself, but the tutorial has become more of a slaughter trial than a learning experience. A post-apocalyptic LitRPG featuring an adaptive magic system that evolves based on its wielder, multi-POV storytelling, and expansive worldbuilding.

Rome fights an endless war against the greenskinned. Maximilian, an orphan, is caught stealing a Class Shard to activate his Patron Inheritance — but he stowed away a Skill Shard too. Thrown into a Cursed Legion and hurled to the frontlines of a massive war, Max must learn how to use his Patron Inheritance to improve and merge Skill Shards, forging himself into the greatest legend ever to wear the maroon and silver.

Ruslan signs a contract without reading it. All he remembers is that he has been hired to command a space fleet in a brand-new virtual reality game he knows nothing about. Objective: survive for six months. The game traps him in a strange body that refuses to obey, in a world teeming with powerful enemies where reputation and faction relationships are everything. After the inevitable new-player mistakes, Ruslan is forced to rethink his strategy and abandon traditional gaming conventions. What new trials await him — trials even the game designers failed to anticipate?

At first everyone thought it was a game. Brad and Sam were playing the hot new game Apocalypse Online when they realized it was a preview of reality — aliens have arrived and they are turning people into fertilizer. With the help of a benevolent alien AI and nanotechnology, they have a chance to survive. They just have to level up and find other survivors. Jake is no gamer, but when he finds out aliens have arrived, he'll do anything to protect his little sister Sam. A post-apocalyptic series filled with action, aliens, and snarky AIs.

When Caden dies in an accidental fall, he is merged with a dungeon core in another world. He's not particularly happy to be dead, so resurrection in any form isn't too bad. The real problem? The dungeon core wasn't dead, and he has to share mind-space with it. That doesn't even account for the powerful wizard who is understandably reluctant to let a dungeon escape. And even once he manages to escape, he must found and manage a dungeon in a location fraught with complications: it sits on the border of two rival human nations, a sentient plant race claims the ground as sacred, and teams of adventurers keep wandering in looking for a living. Through it all, Caden is determined not to lose his humanity and become just another murder-hobo dungeon.

Saskia thought her life was finally getting back on track after the accident. Then she got trolled. Now she's up a tree the size of a planet, and everyone she meets either runs screaming or attacks on sight. If everyone would just calm down and stop trying to kill her for one moment, she might get a chance to explain that this has all been a horrible misunderstanding.

The universe is dying, and humanity has a backup plan: colonize a world that defies all logic. Vin went from dirt-poor vagabond to one of humanity's first colonists in the blink of an eye — and when given the chance to choose a class, he just can't resist becoming an Explorer. In a patchwork world of impossible magic, deadly monsters, and powerful artifacts, it's Vin's job to go out and discover the rules of this new world they need to survive on. If only the System wasn't already threatening to kill him.

Dragons, catgirls, guns, and magic — and the ability to stop time. A modern woman finds herself pulled into a LitRPG world, but her goal is ultimately to return to Earth and stop the System apocalypse threatening everything she left behind. Her past, locked in a dark corner back on Earth, refuses to stay there.

Hans had a realization that changed the direction of his adventuring career: "above average" is different from "great." At 39, with a litany of lingering injuries, he accepted that he would never progress from Gold-ranked to Diamond-ranked. With his prime behind him and disillusioned by guild politics, he accepts a guild master posting in a remote village — an insignificant position no one else wanted. Looking forward to a quiet life of teaching, Hans arrives in the small town of Gomi at the foot of the Dead End Mountains. As he rebuilds the local chapter of the Adventurers' Guild, his unconventional teaching methods earn him allies and enemies alike, while his career failures find ways to resurface. A slice-of-life fantasy exploring life post-adventuring and the challenge of reconciling dreams with reality.

The young, sickly Irwin has seen nothing but bad luck in his short life. When his brother returns with a magical card for him, his luck is about to change — but not necessarily for the better. Irwin is sent off with a group of youths to placate a group of sorcerers, armed with only a strange utility card granted by his brother and a prayer to stay alive long enough. A card-gathering story with crafting that grows increasingly central as the series progresses. Slow-paced, starts dark, with a weak-to-strong arc.

The world ended. The Apocalypse opened the gates of Hell, demons killed everyone — including me. But I got a second chance at life. As an apple. Which was eaten by a starving survivor, not that I fault them. But to toss my half-eaten core into a landfill? Then an earthquake buried the landfill a mile underground. No sunlight, no water, and I'm pretty sure the apple I was reincarnated into was a GMO hybrid with no real chance of germinating. Then: **DING** — SYSTEM INITIATION!

Edwin never really felt many connections to other people, but as a physics student, that was fine. He was content to peel back the mysteries of the universe — though modern-day research was too well-trodden for any single enthusiast to make real headway. That doesn't apply to other worlds. Not ones where magic and Skills run rampant, where well-defined roles and Classes dominate society with little room for novel experimentation. That kind of world would be perfect for an overeager, newly-minted Alchemist to make his mark. A slice-of-life progression fantasy following someone trying to find his place in a world that doesn't know what to do with him. Expect lots of science, lots of alchemy, a few sarcastic quips from the System, and plenty of exploration.

Dying and being reborn in a fantasy world as a hero destined to kill the Demon King is some people's greatest dream. Others, however, may prefer to sit around, relax, take a few naps, and ignore the impending doom. And if such a hero gets reborn as a cat, what's going to stop them from doing exactly that? Finding a warm tavern home filled with food, gossip, and comfort sounds a whole lot easier than putting in the work to stop a war.

Wayne appeared in the summoning chambers for Chosen Heroes. While getting isekaied was good news, he was fifty years off the usual cycle — his body didn't become superhuman, and his system access was glitched. He could open menus, but his only clickable option was to view his unimpressive stats, and another called Christmas List was greyed out entirely. Four years into living his second quiet life, he happens upon a strange artifact from Earth: a single page from the 1990 Electronics Boutique Christmas Catalog. His once-inactive ability gives him the power to add skills and abilities to his system by ripping them from the games listed in the catalog. With a second lease on his second life, Wayne sets out with his best friend Fergus to collect more catalog pages — combining abilities from wildly different game systems and trying not to repeat the mistakes of his past.

In the swamp, the rules are simple: you eat them, or they eat you. Nothing's ever that simple when humans get involved. They feed you weird potions, teach you ridiculous commands, and make you fight pointless fights with totally unfair enemies. After years of non-consensual experimentation and a dark ritual involving goat's blood, the System reclassified Deluge as sentient. A nice title, but not something you can eat. Now, armed with heightened intelligence and slowly accumulating knowledge, Deluge expected the world to finally make sense. It doesn't. The more he learns, the more absurd it gets: civilization, laws, status, guilds, oaths — all random nonsense. There's only one system Deluge respects, and that's the System. System gives you levels. System gives you power.

When an accident kicks Sean Lawrence forward in time, he finds himself square in the apocalyptic end-times. The world is doomed, and he has only a mysterious guidebook, a leather jacket, and a home-made knife. He could spend his days grinding low-level mobs and waiting for a chance to escape. Or he could rise up, slay dragons, and fight against the odds. Faced with a choice between the dead-end life he's been living and a possibility of greatness, Sean has to decide if he's willing to risk everything for a chance to save Earth itself.

Real Fantasy Online is the flagship product for the latest generation of neural-interface headsets, promising total immersion and the best NPC AIs ever created. But when the line between one's real self and one's digital identity becomes blurred, and the gods have their own agenda, who is the player and which is the game? Marcus has played any number of VR games and beta-tested dangerous systems. He usually disdains pre-order perks, but this time the bonus — the ability to craft your character's backstory and have it integrated into the game's lore — is too tempting to pass up. He opts to make a character purely for fun, with no interest in being all-powerful. Things aren't quite what they seem, however, and his backstory and character class have implications he never would have imagined.

Book 1 — Perseverance: Death is the end. At least, it should be. When Will is ripped from the life he has and the woman he loves, the last thing he expects is to be reborn as a baby with his memories intact. In a world where magic makes the impossible real, how much of his new life is he prepared to sacrifice for the chance to reclaim what he lost? Book 2 — The Fifth Stage: With his hometown behind him, catastrophe on the horizon, and the dangers of adolescence hounding every step, Will has hard truths to confront if he is going to survive long enough for his ambitions to matter.
