Tim was always a planner — college, graduate, well-paying job. That plan was coming together until he saw a presentation at his graduation ceremony offering him a chance to get paid to play a virtual world called The Etheric Coast. He could spend his life in a cubicle and a one-bedroom apartment, or he could take a leap of faith into a world of unlimited possibilities. Now he just has to figure out how to get the job of his dreams, help his parents financially, and catch the attention of the girl of his dreams. Tim sure hoped the wave he was about to catch didn't kill him first.

James Holden has reached the maximum level possible for a human — which is fortunate, because he is a wandering warrior without control of his destination, tossed between universes by gods who have failed to explain why. On each new world he serves as the lone Judge, righting wrongs the innocent cannot fix themselves, with one year to accomplish his mission. On his twentieth world, James quickly finds that the roots of corruption run deep — guilds protect themselves rather than the people, and monsters roam unchecked. Being the strongest human will not be enough this time. He may have to recruit some new blood, even if he prefers to work alone.

The 42nd Merging arrives, mass-transporting every human to a hostile new world with a System. Everyone must choose a Class, and Quest directives compel them to climb leaderboards — including one for most kills of other people. Jordan isn't anyone special before the Merging, but the new start equalizes the playing field.

His granted title of Lost Lord immediately makes him a target for assassins and terrorist organizations. Monster attacks are a daily occurrence in Nava, and the people who survive depend on fighters willing to put their own safety aside.

Dabu's life has been far from easy. Born with a crippling lung illness, he has never been as strong as his father or brother, both of whom disappeared after attempting to challenge the Trials of Ancients. In the wake of the Tyrant King's war, his village has fallen under the control of the Purus, a vicious gang of magically enhanced cutthroats. The Trials offer the promise of power to any who can clear them, but Dabu has been forbidden from entering. After a violent encounter leaves his family in danger, he faces a difficult choice — leave to challenge the Trials or stay and risk starvation. The Trials are monstrously difficult, filled with dangerous beasts, deadly obstacles, and tribes of challengers who control the areas within. But if he can make it out alive, Dabu will gain the power he needs to drive the Purus from his home.

Ancient powers are about to collide. The world is on the verge of changing, and all Levy wanted was to start leveling. Stuck with a specialization mostly used for buffing in towns for coin, Levy doesn't see it as a disadvantage — even if everyone else does. He expected to take the road most traveled, but it looks like he'll have to carve his own path and be the first enchanter to reach max level. First he'd better learn everything he can about the system of mana that seems to have a grudge against mankind — and may even have something to do with the burgeoning war.

Launch day. That was what they called it — the day over four million people vanished from Manhattan, the day a one-hundred-and-one-kilometre tower rose from the wreckage, and the day every screen displayed a single message: The Great Emperor has issued his challenge. A hundred floors and a hundred challenges await the worthy. To the victor goes a Wish of Unlimited Power. Cayden Caros yearned to play that game, but the Terms and Conditions barred anyone under sixteen from entering. Forced to wait two years, Cayden researched, practiced, and prepared — because when it came to catching up to players with a massive head start, being a SpeedRunner was a very particular kind of advantage.

Eve Redding was seized in a dirty alley and injected with a virtual reality chip, a GPS tracker, and her first Seed — making her a Player.

Eve is the type to cling to life by the tips of her bloody fingernails — and she hates it when people try to control her.
