The Unconventional Heroes

L. G. Estrella

A77/100
Timothy Walter Bolton — Timmy — has spent most of his life as a necromancer. When his latest creation, a zombie hydra-dragon-bear, tries to eat him, he decides it might be time for a less dangerous career. He is a wanted criminal with powerful enemies and a bone to pick with the Everton Council of Mages. Hope arrives in the form of a new law: war is coming to Everton, and the Council is desperate. In exchange for help, Timmy might earn a pardon. To get it, he must assemble a group of unconventional heroes — most of whom want nothing more than to mangle him. His team includes an obnoxious apprentice, a bumbling bureaucrat, and an elf who is basically the bogeyman. Wonderful.

Song of the Gift-Giver

Selkie

A77/100
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.

Ethan Reed, an ordinary young man from Earth, finds himself mysteriously transported to the world of Pokemon. Stranded and bewildered, he spends over a year lost in an untamed forest, surviving while he makes sense of his new reality. During this time he builds a little plot of land: a farm of berry trees, a secluded meadow, and a rough shelter, shared with the surrounding Pokemon. Finally rescued by an experienced Pokemon Ranger, Ethan arrives at bustling Eterna City and is welcomed into the community of trainers and League Officials. Feeling out of place and uncertain about his future, and lacking confidence in battling, he decides to pursue a different path — becoming a move tutor and breeder, inspired by his connection with the Pokemon from his clearing.

When Emily Smith's life was cut short by a nuclear war, something — or perhaps someone — decided that what happened to her was unjust and gave her another chance.

But its consequences will be far-reaching and profound for the world she now calls home.

Academy of Outcasts

Larry Correia

A76/100
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.

Dead Tired

RavensDagger

A76/100
In the distant past, there lived Harold — the mightiest lich of all, a master of arcane sciences, and a challenger of gods. After reaching the pinnacle of his power and finding it surprisingly bland, he waged a cataclysmic war against the gods and then took a nap. An incredibly long nap. He wakes to a world he barely recognizes. No more swords and sorcery, but a universe buzzing with cultivation, celestial sects, and far too many pretentious dialogues about the path to godhood. Harold has one ambition: to slide back into his uninterrupted eternal slumber. But the cacophony of quarreling sects and smug martial artists seems determined to keep him awake. No aspiring deity, no grandiose sect, and certainly no self-righteous martial artist is going to rob him of his beauty sleep.

Hannah has a routine. Wake up, shower, school, work, sleep. A perfectly normal routine for a perfectly normal girl who does not have to remember how her limbs work every morning because of haunting nightmares of being a very different creature in a very different world. But that's all she thinks they are — nightmares — until one night they're all too lucid, and her body on Earth starts to change. Slowly, Hannah's humanity starts to slip away. A story in two worlds, with magic leaking in from one to the other. It's about love, self-acceptance, neurodivergency, and a whole lot of trauma.

After his town is put to the sword and the children are taken, an old man is out for revenge. He is ready to fail at the most difficult challenge in the world: cultivation. Too corrupted to even take the first steps, the sly old elder simply agreed with those who told him it was impossible — then quietly ignored them and started anyway. He had always failed at everything: lost his way from the academy, lost his command to a Mage, lost his town. The only thing that had never failed him was his sharp mind and philosophy. He would cultivate — no matter what it cost him.
