Eight thousand years after the Glassing of Earth, Terran Descent Humanity has largely become a post-scarcity society based on consent and enjoying life. With the discovery of another ancient race beyond the "Great Gulf," events and history collide to draw the Terran Confederacy into war against a hundred-million-year-old empire that has always won — and believes it always will. With allies and enemies of multiple species, the Orion Galactic Arm Spur will be wracked by warfare the likes of which have not been seen. Cracked, harried, wounded, and damaged, Terran Descent Humanity willfully throws itself against the universe itself. Told largely from the viewpoint of other species, this is a vast ensemble war story spanning hundreds of perspectives across an entire interstellar conflict.

A wise man once said all roads lead to Rome. He didn't know how right he was. Ripped away from the battlefield, Tiberius and his six thousand Roman Legionnaires find themselves stranded in a foreign land of magic and witchcraft. With no way home, their path forward is obvious: conquer everything in sight — much to the chagrin of Marcus, the poor, unsuspecting bard who summoned them. Taking over the world is not so easy. The Legion must learn to navigate the strange magics and abilities this new world has granted them. Meanwhile Marcus must figure out how to mitigate the force of nature he's unleashed upon his woefully unprepared world — or simply enjoy the front-row seat to an epic in the making.

She's relatively normal, even in a world where superhumans battle eldritch horrors that transform people into monsters. Viewing life as a movie, she has always wanted to be the main character.

Becoming a monster isn't exactly the heroic origin she imagined — but she didn't have much choice, and she can probably make it work. Follow an endearing psychopath through the chaos of a battle between superhumans, hi-tech government agents, monsters, mutants, and wannabe heroes for Earth and the future of humanity.

Eliza Scaggs is tired of the rumors — that she's an old witch who made a pact with darkness, that her pet monster stalks children. She's been working herself to the bone on a secret government project, trying to prove that she, the only woman in the wizard's guild, actually belongs there. When she takes on a teenage apprentice named Oliver, she's determined to show that mentoring a kid is not something a twisted hell spawn would do. But Oliver is quiet in a way that worries her, and when he asks if she can "fix" people, she fears he means himself. Set in a world where magic drives the industrial revolution, the story follows a witch and her apprentice as they are thrust into a dangerous faction war.

What do you get when you cross nanomachines controlled by a volatile AI with a bleeding-edge military-grade cybernetic implant and a gutter rat out to prove everyone wrong? A forced experimental drug treatment at an early age has saddled David with an immense burden. His mother's death has left him adrift and unsure of his direction. So he does what any teenager with no more cares left to give does — chips in some mil-spec chrome and looks for a quick way to earn edds, all the while learning to utilize the nanotechnology forced on him as a child. Corpo or Edgerunner? Why not both? And why not the best of both while we're at it?

Zach was a respected leader who thrived in the post-Framework world — until the World Ender killed what he cared for most, and even his incredible power was not enough to stop it. Ryun, meanwhile, became the most powerful being on Earth by pushing harder than anyone else — and was called the World Ender for it. As the old world ends and both men step into the Infinite Realm — a new reality where people stronger than them have lived for centuries — each carries a purpose, a grudge, and a reputation. One wants vengeance. The other wonders if a monster like him has any place left in the universe.

Bastion: the last hope of civilization. Bright, flashy, and dangerous. Heroic Wardens protect the city from monsters, rifts, and villainous Anarchs, while corporations bicker like children even during the end-times. The existential threats seeking the city's destruction are just another Tuesday — the Wardens, with their system-granted powers forged from broken myths and shattered stars, are the only thing standing between Bastion and total devastation. They were just out of reach for one wayward Stray who happened to be in the right place at the right time. Now, with the OS having chosen them, it's time to claw back to the top — one rift, job, and monster at a time. Just as soon as there's enough drive to actually get out there.

He logs into a high-level area severely underleveled with trash gear, prepared for one final assassination — and then he didn't expect to fall for his target.

Humanity has forgotten the ancient ways of magic and the occult as mana disappeared from the world over millennia.

Following in his ancestors' footsteps, he embarks on a path to the pinnacle of dark arts.
