Addison Goodheart was born in an isolated home surrounded by deep forest, kept secret from everyone but his mother — who barely accepts him. Only in the woods, among wildlife, is Addison truly welcome. Until the day terror arrives, radically and forever changing his life. He lives in solitude beneath a city, an exile that society will destroy if he is ever seen. She dwells in seclusion, a fugitive from enemies who will harm her if she is ever found. Something more than chance — and nothing less than destiny — has brought them together as the world's hour of reckoning approaches.

Summoned to another world and asked to be a great hero, the protagonist wants none of it — the world already has a hero. Instead, he chooses the simplest class available: Potion Maker. He has no interest in defying the heavens or cultivating mana. But the nearby town is suffering from crippling inflation and losing businesses fast. Someone has to do something about it. An unlikely potion shopkeeper and his apprentices begin building what they hope will become an S-ranked potion shop — though that turns out to be far easier said than done.

Nothing walks the black cinder of Earth except the undead leftovers, reanimated by science so advanced it may as well be magic. Twisted into unimaginable forms by flesh-shaping and machine-grafting, the undead are the only remnant of a civilization reduced to ash and organic slurry. Elpida doesn't know this world, but she's on her feet, leading a half-dozen other fresh revenants — ripped from oblivion and disgorged shivering and naked on cold metal slabs in a womb-lab of blinking lights and blaring alarms, by machines running some ancient plan. A story about body horror and alienation, weird zombie-girls gluing themselves back together, mad science beyond mortal ken, and trying to cradle the flower of companionship in twitching, undead fingers.

When a young dwarf named Yorvig travels to a mining claim in the wilds of the Red Ridges, he learns by hard experience that his fellow prospectors are more focused on ore than survival. Thinking he alone can hold disaster at bay, Yorvig plots his way to becoming captain of the mine. He only expected to lead in a fight against starvation, but far greater danger arrives in forms both fair and foul. The mine grows beyond what they ever imagined, and while Yorvig's authority must grow with it, the challenges of love and loyalty will not make it easy — nor will the old foe determined to drive the dwarven folk from the Red Ridges.

Erind Hartwell is a dutiful daughter, law student, film enthusiast — and psychopath. She's relatively normal, even in a world where superhumans battle eldritch horrors that transform people into monsters. Viewing life as a movie, she has always wanted to be the main character. That wish is granted unexpectedly: on the brink of death, impaled by a spike, an otherworldly entity offers her powers. Becoming a monster isn't exactly the heroic origin she imagined — but she didn't have much choice, and she can probably make it work. Follow an endearing psychopath through the chaos of a battle between superhumans, hi-tech government agents, monsters, mutants, and wannabe heroes for Earth and the future of humanity.

Vrax should be dead by now, and he damn well knows it. Yet he's still here — delving into the eldritch unknown of the Forsaken Lands at level zero, being an overtly picky asshole, and praying for the System to give him the perfect class.

Steady progression from level zero, with a unique power set that lets him craft and twist monsters into deadly horrors.

Detective John Calvino comes away from interviewing 14-year-old sadistic killer Billy Lucas with a terrible sense of dread — and a feeling that somehow the boy has come home with him.

Billy might be safely locked up — but something is stalking the night.

For ten years, Huan Yue has lived a quiet life, serving tea and hiding from the world of god-like cultivators who shattered her family for a petty slight. All she wants is to remain invisible.

Hunted by a team of relentless and seemingly invincible assassins, Yue discovers that within her curse lies a weapon. If she cannot escape as a mortal, she will become something more. With each death, terror fades and is replaced by burning rage. Forced to walk the path of the very people she despises, she will use the endless cycle to forge her spirit and sharpen her skills. Her hunters believe she is an insignificant pest to be exterminated. They don't realize they've given their victim the one thing she needs to claim her revenge: time.

The saying goes that when a man is born, the Fates weave his destiny and swaddle him in it. When he dies, that swaddle becomes his shroud. Heaven moves on. To question the Fates is audacity. To transgress the line of divinity, scale Olympus Mons, and defy the threads of destiny is hubris — a mark every philosopher bears plainly on their soul.

Aiden lives in Wonderwind, the world's biggest VRMMO. He dropped out of college, ditched real life, and invested everything into a career as a cold, calculated virtual assassin targeting the richest players in the top-500 leaderboard — every kill executed to perfection. Until his headset glitches mid-mission. One lag spike later, rent's due and his landlord is about to kick him to the curb. Aiden realizes his next job might be his last. He logs into a high-level area severely underleveled with trash gear, prepared for one final assassination — and then he didn't expect to fall for his target.

When Lana opens her eyes again, she is in the body of a girl-child she does not recognize. A system message tells her she has unjustly ended another's Karmic Causality and usurped countless others through her boundless greed. She must live again to atone for her sins — or sink into eternal oblivion.

When a message appears in Marc's line of sight warning that Earth has been in a "variant Natural Laws beta test" for millennia and is about to revert to the norms, he decides — sane or not — it cannot hurt to prepare. Once the change begins, monsters spawn across his town, everyday animals mutate into dangerous creatures, and Marc's small group races to create a Safe Zone while the system hands out classes and magic to those capable of grasping them. With a system that desperately needs English-language lessons and an increasingly strange universe behind it, Marc works to rescue as many survivors as he can.

After being killed by a high-velocity tree, Arlo is transported to a new world of skills, stats, and levels where those brave and talented enough to conquer ancient Delves are rewarded with incredible supernatural power. Unfortunately, there is no tutorial. Arlo is immediately forced to tackle a Delve set to the highest difficulty with a party of strangers, possessing no armor, no weapons, and no knowledge of this world — and his paper-thin excuses for how he got there are growing thin. There's also the fact that the System seems to be treating Arlo's situation like a big, cosmic joke. Determined not to die again, Arlo forgoes his highest stat, Intelligence, and dumps everything into Fortitude. After all, who needs equipment when you can eat fireballs for breakfast and ask for more hot sauce? Mage Tank is a comedic LitRPG set in an epic fantasy world rapidly evolving as new and powerful secrets of the Delves are uncovered, featuring slow progression, intelligent characters who make intentional build choices, and real consequences.

The Wilds relentlessly reclaim all things. Humanity shelters within ever-dying cities, and Mages create the only path forward. Tala fought tooth and nail in the Magic Academy to forge her own path to power. She skipped a few steps along the way—like actually apprenticing to someone who knows what they're doing. Now she must balance learning as fast as she can with paying off the Academy's crushing debt, all while staying alive in a world that considers her a Mage before she's truly ready to be one.

Rob didn't think of himself as anyone special, but when a pitch-black portal tried to wrap his best friend in chains, he stepped up without thinking and found himself ensnared instead. His moment of heroism results in being torn away from everyone he knew and loved, kidnapped by an unknown force that leaves him with a note: "Good luck." Thrown into the wilderness of Elatra, a hostile fantasy world ruled by levels, stats, and bizarre video game logic, he finds himself entirely out of his depth. Overcoming the wilds is just the first step — Elatran society is incredibly hostile to humans, having just come off a devastating war that left over half the population dead, and getting the locals to trust the last human in existence is a struggle in and of itself. Between being powerless in a world that hates him and suffering under a System that is altering his mind in unwanted ways, Rob quickly finds that monsters aren't nearly the biggest thing to worry about.

To survive and carve out freedom for himself and those who follow him, he must embrace the beast within — fighting the monsters around him while guarding against becoming one himself.

Once, Shen Bu destroyed everything his father had ever worked for — burning the new home to ashes, consuming his mother's cultivation, and slaying the unborn daughter within her.

Feeling the weight of his quest, he returns to the city of his birth to drown his sorrows — and meets a boy who finally gives him hope. Waking up in the body of an eight-year-old kid dying of plague in a xianxia setting was not anyone's idea of a good time. The new inhabitant lacks a cheat or a system, but a chance meeting with an unremarkable middle-aged man who likes talking about medicine may prove more valuable than it seems.
