Super Sales on Super Heroes

William D. Arand

S85/100
In a world full of superpowers, Felix's ability to modify any item he owns sounds great — until you realize the power cost is far beyond his reach. Settling for a normal life, everything changes when a Super Villain conquers his city and creates a city-state. Amid the chaos, Felix discovers a way to make his power useful and seizes the opportunity with both hands. Using his ability to upgrade Super Heroes and Villains as an investment, Felix builds a corporate empire called Legion — navigating a world of corrupt politicians, rival supers, and enemies who want everything he has built.

Blood & Fur

Maxime J. Durand (Void Herald)

S85/100
A new emperor rules each year in Yohuachanca. Only the most delicious food graces his palate, the realm's most beautiful women fill his harem, his palace dazzles the mind — and at the year's end, he is sacrificed to the Nightlords under the light of the Scarlet Moon. Iztac is a pisspoor orphan and this year's emperor. A sacrifice bound for the altar. But the vampires have made a mistake: Iztac is a sorcerer whose soul can journey into the secret underworld to plunder the spells of the dead. There, in the darkness, hides the power to drag the Nightlords off their throne. He has a year to find it — or perish for good. He may not be the first emperor, but he will be the last.

Amidst all of this, Arnold von Hohenfels — first son of the Margrave — finds himself compelled to attend the Imperial Academy, a notorious battleground of wits and brawn for ambitious young nobles.

Wild Wastes

Randi Darren

A83/100
Before World War Two could reach its conclusion, a catastrophic experiment turned the center of the United States — from the Sierra Nevada to the Mississippi — into "The Waste," a land overrun by orcs, ogres, trolls, elves, harpies, and every manner of mythological monster, all of whom despise humankind. Vince is a Ranger, a profession built around surviving in the Waste and taking missions from the Ranger Guild. A single escort mission changes everything — and sets him on a path from lone survivor to ruler of a growing city-state, fighting to carve out a permanent home in a hostile world.

Andy in the Apocalypse

PlumParrot

A82/100
Andy wanted a quiet life — just his trailer, the Sonoran desert, and a job that didn't ask much of him. Instead, he got a front-row seat to Tucson's collapse. Magic rewrote the rules. Monsters stalked the streets. People mutated — or died. He didn't plan to be a hero. But when the screaming started, Andy grabbed a broken broomstick and did what he does best: survive. Now he has more than his own skin to worry about — kids looking to him for protection, neighbors turning to him for leadership, and a trailer park slowly transforming into a fortress. The System is leveling him up, but not fast enough. The countdown is ticking, the invasions are coming, and if Andy fails, everyone he has begun to care about will be slaughtered.
