The Natural

Lightningwarrior

S86/100
Leo's first order of business when he is dropped unceremoniously into the Pokémon world is to survive. Seeing as he is in the middle of the wild with only a small pocketknife, some papers, and a backpack — and with no signs of civilization in sight — that is setting up to be quite the task.

The Dungeon Without a System

StrangerDanger51

S86/100
The unnamed main character wakes up as a Dungeon Core. Instead of being deep within the earth or in a cave, this newly-minted Dungeon Core finds himself drifting to the beach of an uncharted and uninhabited island. Watch as he explores the uses of mana, defends himself from people trying to kill him, and confuses the hell out of all the humans who attempt to understand just why he's so different from other dungeons.

Chasing Sunlight

InadvisablyCompelled

S86/100
In a world of lightless skies and endless secrets, humanity endures as a vigil of light against eternal darkness. Under the Illuminated King and the Reflected Council, a veteran explorer assembles an expedition to the far east — a place no sane man would go — because Jonathan Heights claims to have seen sunlight. Sunlight is a laughable myth, but he will not be stopped. Wonders and horrors both lie between the human lands and his goal: long-forgotten things that could not be recorded on any map. As crown agents and underworld figures join Jonathan aboard the airship Endeavor, motives remain uncertain and the truth stays shrouded.

The Breeder

B.A. Oliver

S86/100
In the world Jay was born into, male children are rare — and fewer than half receive a class from the system. Those who don't are trapped in a boy's body forever. On his last chance before the obelisk, Jay receives not just a class, but a Legendary one: the most desired class of all. Wealth, status, and power come with it — along with unexpected responsibility, small-town politics, and secrets his mentor has kept about his past that could destroy everything.

Soul Guardian: A Hellishly Cozy Fantasy

Alex Karne (TheDeliciousMeats)

S86/100
Things were going great for the demon Bael-Sharoth until a little girl summoned him to open a jar of tomato sauce. Now he's trapped in the human world along with his arch nemesis, the beautiful and capable Maharet Flameheart. Life isn't easy for a demon in a small town — but at least the parks are hellhound-friendly and the werewolf at the local bookshop seems nice enough. Bael and Maharet must find a loving human family to take in this powerful young witch before time runs out, or risk being stuck on Earth forever.

Battle Through the Nine Realms

Shawn Wilson

S86/100
Ragnarok is near and the Vikings of Midgard have failed to prevent it. Searching all worlds for one last warrior, Odin's eye falls on Magnus — an Army Ranger whose death took his entire team with him. Summoned before the All-Father, Magnus strikes a bargain: be reborn in Midgard, empower himself through mystical runes, and battle Odin's foes — in exchange for his team getting a second chance at life if he succeeds. Waking in a small farming village, Magnus must train and battle mundane foes and mythological creatures across all Nine Realms.

Reamde

Neal Stephenson

S85/100
Four decades ago, Richard Forthrast fled to the mountains of British Columbia to avoid the draft, built an illegal fortune smuggling marijuana, and eventually channeled it into a Fortune 500 gaming company with its own massively successful online RPG, T'Rain. The line between fantasy and reality becomes dangerously blurred when a young gold farmer accidentally triggers a virtual war for dominance — and Richard is caught at the center of something far more dangerous than any in-game conflict.

The Infinite World

JT Wright

S85/100
In the Infinite World, nations and races rise and fall almost daily. New Classes are discovered, old ways are lost, and monsters roam a land where heroes and villains forge new epics — often dying in the process. Trent Embra navigates this ever-shifting world, maturing from a soldier's trainee into something more as each trial tests his limits and reshapes who he is.

Hawkin's Magic Beers

James Ghoul

S85/100
Hawkin rejected adventure to pursue a slower pace of living. Isolated in the wilderness far from civilization, he fends for himself using the axe he earned on the Lumberjack quest path — the quest path he'd gladly disabled long ago. After ten rugged years alone in the northern forests, visitors begin to appear: first an ancient, overpowered monster who becomes more friend than foe, then a lost trio of monks who share a beer so good that Hawkin is moved to return to the dreaded system. Dellia, one of a thousand gods, seeks Hawkin's help to expand her influence among humans, promising to guide him to becoming one of the greatest brewers the world has ever known. Hawkin's only condition: he never leaves his woods. When goblins encroach on his territory, he forges an alliance with unlikely companions and sets forth on a journey to brew magic beer.

Victor of Tucson

PlumParrot

S85/100
Victor can't wait to get out of high school and start his own life on a sports scholarship. That plan is derailed when he steps into his abuela's house and somehow ends up in a world filled with fantastical meta-humans, walking talking devils, and creatures one usually needs serious pharmaceuticals to see. Fanwath is no dream — it's a nightmare. Sold into slavery as a pit fighter, Victor learns his new home is controlled by the System, and the only way to get ahead is to fight, kill, and collect the precious Energy that means the difference between a long life and an early grave. His stats start at a solid zero. Lucky for him, no one in this world has ever met his kind before — which means they have no idea what he's really capable of.

ARMOR

Seersucker

S85/100
Created as the ultimate dungeon trap — a living suit of armor that devours any adventurer who dons it — the narrator was built for its master's entertainment, leading adventurers to ruin and betraying them at the last moment. This time was supposed to be no different. Instead, it finds itself living the life of an adventurer, hoping its companions won't realize it's not who — or what — they think it is.

Jumanji

Chris Van Allsburg

S85/100
The game under the tree looked like a hundred others Peters and Judy had at home. But they were bored and looking for something interesting to do, so they gave Jumanji a try. Little did they know when they unfolded its ordinary-looking playing board that they were about to be plunged into the most exciting and bizarre adventure of their lives. Chris Van Allsburg's classic picture book explores the ever-shifting line between fantasy and reality, as a quiet house is taken over by an exotic jungle.

Barliona is a virtual world packed with monsters, battles, and millions of players seeking things they cannot find in real life — magic, dragons, and unforgettable combat.

The Many Lives of Cadence Lee

vladerag

S85/100
Cadence Lee thought she was a normal girl. She had her college classes, her job, and a nice boyfriend. Then a mugger accosts them — and Cadence ends up shot. A normal girl with that kind of wound would die. Cadence managed to do that part. But then she opens her eyes again and learns that death is not as permanent for her as it is for other people. She can be reborn, again and again, each time stronger and with new abilities. The catch: any world she is born into, she can never return to. She has infinite lives, but only one life for each.

Amid the chaos, Felix discovers a way to make his power useful and seizes the opportunity with both hands.

Wander West, in Shadow

CloverCloverClover

S85/100
The war ended, but the world didn't. For years, the lands burned in the wars of the White Queen, a sorceress and tyrant whose mad ambition brought ruin to all she touched. Now she is dead, but all that remains has been bled dry — charred towns lie hollow, fields return to the wild, and quiet shadows settle where folk once made their homes. Through this darkness, the young wizard Martimeos walks broken roads following the fading trail of his brother, who marched west to fight in the Queen's War and never returned. On his journey he must barter with demons, trade riddles with fae, and contend with the wild witch Elyse, a fellow practitioner with secrets of her own. At last the road brings him to Silverfish, a cursed village whose future has been stolen. His search will lead him to the horror at the heart of Silverfish's tragedy — and the truth behind his brother's fate.
