Eldritch Exorcist

Hastum

A78/100
Humanity has forgotten the ancient ways of magic and the occult as mana disappeared from the world over millennia. Once-powerful creatures are now remembered as silly cryptids, and powerful rituals have become superstition. But the universe never stays constant. Magic begins to return. Mythical creatures crawl out from their hidden lairs, Ouija boards start summoning real demons, and Halloween haunted-house parties turn into genuine horrors. The world slowly descends into chaos. For Samuel — last remaining member of an infamous wizard family known for their strange deals with Eldritch gods — this is a breath of fresh air. Following in his ancestors' footsteps, he embarks on a path to the pinnacle of dark arts. The exorcist business is about to boom, but whether that is good news for the rest of the world remains to be seen.

Academy of Outcasts

Larry Correia

A78/100
All Oz Carnavon ever wanted was to become a master mage. But doing so requires the natural gifts or wealth needed to secure an appointment to one of the prestigious magical academies in the Core City at the center of the seven realms — and Oz had neither. Born without magical talent, he's been serving in the nightmarish elemental plane of fire, where life is cheap and escape is rare. When Oz fakes his death to escape his family's contract and sneaks into the Core, everything seems to be going according to plan — until he gets blamed for an assassination attempt on the fire realm's ambassador. Now a fugitive in a vast magical city, he must earn a place among the magical academies that have nothing but disdain for his kind. And the clock is ticking: the most dangerous wizard in the realm of fire is coming to track him down.

Beware the Trickster

Mangowo

A78/100
Life was perfect: naps in sunbeams, stolen snacks, and expertly timed accidents to torment her favorite human. So when licking a strangely alluring gemstone suddenly flooded her fuzzy head with memories of her former human existence, Clover — now a fox — simply filed it under "things to not give a damn about" and went back to napping. Fate had other plans. When the curtain of her pampered ignorance was ripped aside, revealing a world steeped in ancient horrors, eldritch hungers, and flesh-warping occult progression, she reacted with remarkable calm. Because the real horror was anything threatening her nap-snack-torment equilibrium. Now this newly enlightened vulpine has a simple goal: get stronger — not for glory, but purely to achieve peace through overwhelming power.

The Snake Report

wercwercwerc

A78/100

Some of them end up reincarnated as a tiny snake. This is the story of one such soul: a winding path through a fantasy world toward something like existential redemption, told with comedy and heart.

With an ever-growing family of mischievous sisters to babysit, Emily tries to stay under the radar — even as her reluctant "evil empire" grows larger than she ever intended.

Heretical Fishing: A Cozy Guide to Annoying the Cults, Outsmarting the Fish, and Alienating Oneself

Haylock

A78/100
When summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would strap on their boots and get ready for their stats to start climbing. But Fischer isn't like most MCs — he doesn't want to be a hero at all. Fame, fortune, power? He had enough of all that in his old life. Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal within scritching distance is more his speed. Unfortunately, cosmic forces rarely care for mortal feelings. He's hounded on all sides by inept cults, conspiring nobles, and magical misunderstandings — and even his dutiful pet crab is firing energy blades like an anime antagonist.

Though he arrives in the safe world of Tatian, demons are crawling from the darkness between realms. There's no time to prepare carefully: he needs to find allies among the lost just to survive long enough to make use of what he knows.

Song of the Gift-Giver

Selkie

A78/100
When Merlin sundered the world to separate the magical from the mundane, he made a small mistake: he copied every mundane body but not their souls. That night, they rose as undead — and the world has never known peace since. Camelot is now an institution for teaching fine young wixen about magic, and it is not a safe place to learn. Felix has never held a wand or cast a spell — until Paracelsus, the Immortal Alchemist, breaks into his home to tell him he's a wizard. Meanwhile, Erik Morsin, groomed to be the next Duke of Ireland, is a member of the most hated family in King Arthur's nation. Four other students round out a group whose lives will intertwine at Camelot — though only five can bond as a coven. A mild LitRPG set in a magic school, planned across eight books.
