And if he wants to survive long-term, he needs to keep climbing — even if that means heading directly into danger.

The Sullivans are a normal family — until the walls of their home disappear on Thanksgiving and they are transported to Arenia, a place where game rules are real and their Earthen ability to reincarnate grants them unlimited potential. Or it would, if the celestial administrator in charge of their case hadn't mixed up longitude and latitude and sent the wrong family. Too bad he already faked their deaths. Now scattered throughout the Arenian wilderness, armed only with their Tomes — books containing all of their skills, accomplishments, and quests — the family must discover a strength they never knew they had if they're going to survive long enough to find each other.

Wake up. Mine crystals. Don't die. That's the job, and Andy doesn't remember ever having a different one. The guards have guns. The other workers have agendas. The tunnels have monsters that shouldn't exist. On his first shift, surrounded by men who've already made their peace with the dark, he decides he won't be one of them.

But he'll have to hide it from everyone until he's strong enough to stop hiding. No one leaves the mine alive. Andy intends to be the first.

'A Rounding Error has Occurred. Please Choose Your Apocalypse as Compensation.' Alex Johnson — a home-based IT worker — is thrown into a brutal LitRPG apocalypse and handed the chance to design his own end-of-days. Like choosing wallpaper for his personal inferno.

So Alex is going to be fighting uphill, against the odds — and probably some interdimensional middle managers — from the word "go."

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.

Tim sure hoped the wave he was about to catch didn't kill him first.

The gods are real — and they hate you. This wouldn't be true for most people, but for Samuel Lin, whose first interaction with a god was cursing them out, well, you get the idea. Sam was behind on his Master's thesis when he was selected as one of humanity's representatives in an interstellar battle royale: a fight to the death on the grandest cosmic scale. Dropped through a portal onto the slopes of Mt. Olympos, he discovers the only way to survive is to climb, and the only way to climb is to fight.

Either Chris and his friends eliminate War's vanguard of minions and generals, giving the Gods a chance to keep him out for good — or War comes for Earth.
