An Unexpected Hero

Jaime Castle, Rhett C. Bruno

C59/100
Danny Kendrick was a down-on-his-luck performer who never wanted to be a hero. Then he pisses off the wrong person and gets sucked into a fantasy realm straight out of a Renaissance Fair, surrounded by axe-wielding barbarians, elf assassins, and a System AI that seems more interested in causing mischief than helping. Gifted a mysterious ancient lute after a questionable deal with a Hag, Danny becomes the target of factions seeking its power. Together with his AI companion Screenie and his new barbarian friend Curr, Danny must uncover the truth — and maybe find the place where he finally belongs.

The Legendary Builder

J.A. Cipriano

C59/100
Arthur never expected to wind up in Hell — and certainly not because he found an ancient sword in a pawnshop. Hell is not as he imagined: a desolate wasteland under siege by an all-consuming void known as the Darkness, which will devour Earth next if not stopped. Trapped with no way home, a ragtag army of women, and a sword whose only power is to modify the abilities of those around him, Arthur must somehow turn the tide. As he fights his way through Hell's ruling class, fallen archangels, and the Darkness's champion, the penniless orphan slowly becomes something the ancient conflict has never seen before: the Builder of Legend.

Draka

AvaritiaBona

She'll fight to live, to stay herself, and to grow her hoard. Because greed is good, and gold is everything. Draka is a story about making your own place in a world that fears you, featuring slow power progression based on greed and hoarding, a mix of adventure and slice-of-life, and a draconic main character struggling to hold on to her humanity.

Afterlife 2.0

QuickDuckling

C59/100
The gods have scrapped eternal torment in favor of something new: Eternia, a brutal, glitch-riddled wilderness where fresh souls are dumped with little hope of survival. Fail here, and it's back to classic hell as a consolation prize. Enter Ellie, who dies just in time to beta-test the gods' twisted new system. Utterly unprepared, she's tossed into a world where everything seems out to kill her — or glitch out before she can figure out what it's supposed to do. Armed with nothing but her wits and a reluctant sense of humour, Ellie must navigate hostile terrain, outwit aggressive wildlife, and find some purpose in this cosmic mess. In a world designed for divine entertainment where the rules are still being written, anything could — and probably will — happen.

When Li Mei dies in a traffic accident after another soul-crushing retail shift, she awakens inside her favorite game, Phoenix Kingdom Chronicles — inhabiting the body of Lin Xiulan, the scorned second daughter of a noble family. Armed with knowledge of the game and hard-won experience dealing with difficult people, Xiulan refuses to be the family's punching bag.

She also carries knowledge of a devastating future that threatens the entire realm — and surviving her own family long enough to act on it will be the first challenge.

How to Succeed in Monster Farming

Kenny King

C58/100
Nick was just your average overworked accountant — until he got isekai'd and then immediately rejected for lacking hero potential. Instead of a prophecy or a sword, he's given a rundown farm in a cursed wasteland where seventeen previous owners died horribly. Nick isn't as helpless as he looks. With mysterious strength, an eye for optimization, and a knack for flipping curses into perks, he starts rebuilding Blackthorn Farm from the ground up — monster livestock, magical crops, and an eclectic crew including a former elven slave turned manager, killer birds, and a shape-shifting dragon named Petunia. As his power grows, the farm draws attention from forces that might not be entirely mortal.

The Power of Ten: Book One: Sama Rantha, and Book Two: The Far Future

RE Druin

C58/100
Some time ago, a planes-traveling archmage invented a video game to train people on Earth for a coming catastrophe. The gods seized the opportunity to take the templates — and even the souls — of some of those characters for use in other worlds. Sama Rantha is one of those characters. Being a Hagchild and surviving after your Hag Curse fails to murder you at birth is much, much less fun than setting it as your race at level one on a gamescreen. Book One follows Sama's Road to Ten in a traditional LitRPG fantasy setting, heavy with gaming terms and rules-lawyering as she min-maxes her heart out to survive a world intent on killing her. Book Two shifts to a sci-fi/fantasy/psionics mashup as Sama is sent into a grim dark galaxy she'd rather not be in — but the heart of a powergamer never says no.

Respec On Death

Godric

C58/100
Fifteen years after Earth was forced into the Sarlenac Games, over half of the population is gone, culled by the System without mercy. Each year, thousands of Gates open to hostile worlds — fail to clear them in time, and ten percent of Earth's population dies. Specialist Jimmy Novak is a low-level combat medic with nothing to his name but scars, sarcasm, and a refusal to quit. When a routine Gate spirals into catastrophe, Jimmy makes a choice the System never accounted for, and something older than the System takes notice. [Skill Activated: Respec on Death.] With each death, Jimmy changes — new class, new build, new tools for survival. But the cost is steep, and the enemy is no longer just monsters. The System is watching. The gods are stirring. And Jimmy Novak is becoming something far more dangerous.

Keeper of Totality

Infinityphoenix

The death of the Hero reset the timeline — not what Lucy had intended when she made that last soul attack while dying. Returned to Earth, she attempts the obvious: use her knowledge of the future to dominate the System's five realms. Except things go wrong immediately. A Shard of Totality is now lodged in her eye, her Status is broken, and the Hero remembers everything — and has his own agenda involving her other identity, Adrianna Riftmire. She may be doomed. But as a master of soul magic and former Archmage, she is far from defenseless. This might just be her best chance to permanently defeat the Hero of Light, whose powers distort destiny to ensure his success.

D.M. Rhodes (Razzmatazz)

C58/100
When a nameless pilot breaks through a dimensional rift, he and his experimental fighter-plane become the only things standing between a dying world and the monstrous army marching to destroy the last World Tree and its keeper. A man trained to hunt in the skies above barren ash-lands must now become the last protector of the perfect garden below. A soldier with as much blood on his hands as engine grease must find a way to live alongside a peaceful forest dryad — the tree's sole caretaker — as the invasion waves grow stronger with each passing cycle. As one nation after another falls, a transmigrated war pilot flying an experimental combat aircraft may be the only hope left for the world's many races, the sacred tree, and the peace-loving dryad who tends it.
