As an engineer on the arkship Pilgrim-9, bound for the Tau Ceti solar system, Morgan Hall expected a quiet 240-year stasis. Instead, he's roused early to chaos and brought down to a dangerous planet where magic is as real as science. Forced to fight for survival without their technology, Morgan and his shipmates must adapt quickly. They begin to carve out a new existence — until they discover the planet is already inhabited by a cunning, powerful, and lethal native species.

Nyx was born Hollow — an empty vessel in a world of spirits, a condition that should have meant death. Somehow he survived, driven by stubbornness and a touch of madness. In a previous life, he did something reckless: he sent himself his own memories, throwing them into the Flow from which all spirits return. Now those memories have found him, raising questions he can't stop asking — was reincarnation real, would his half-baked plan actually work, and could his life possibly get any worse? It could.

Seventeen-year-old Ren Haddon hasn't had an easy life. The child of drug addicts who used him as a lab rat, he spent most of his years in hospital under constant care. Then his name is drawn from millions of others to receive a one-of-a-kind class in the new virtual world game Flow — Fantasy Life Online World.

In a fraction of a moment, the Earth was no more — destroyed in an accident, killing billions. This is the story of Elm, a regular American born on Earth and given a chance to be reborn on a world of magic, monsters, and dungeons. But for Elm, this is far from the idealistic reincarnation story. He is born into a family of inquisitors — a noble order dedicated to hunting down and killing the "Twice-Lived," the name society gives to those reincarnated with their past-life memories intact. Elm must navigate a world that wants him dead, armed only with knowledge from a life that no longer exists.

When Aiden and a group of people are summoned to another world to stop the Demon King, the last thing he expects is for his brother to become the Demon King himself. In an attempt to save his brother, Aiden is caught in a clash of spells, suffers termination at the hands of the very system that has been part of his life since the summoning, and wakes up back at the beginning — on the day of their arrival. Armed with past experiences and knowledge, he has a second chance, and he has no intention of letting his brother become the Demon King again. The only problem: he doesn't think he's the only one who came back.

The world is a wide, wide place — and that's without taking into account the many creatures that inhabit it. When a new Dungeon Core is born deep below the surface, it faces challenge after challenge in a world that is anything but welcoming. The only question is whether it is up to the challenge of surviving.

Seven million players were inside the VRMMO Realms of the Veiled Paths when an unexplained power surge sealed them in. Then they began to die. Caleb Stone's teenage son was among those trapped. A son he had lost once before — a son he refuses to lose again. When he logs in to find him, months have passed inside: empires have fallen, monsters roam freely, and surviving players have carved out warlord kingdoms and murderous factions. As Caleb gathers allies and searches for answers, he realizes that salvation might lie in his Tamer class — a joke class, incomplete and not ready to level, hiding developer code that nobody knew existed. Now that code is unleashed.

Tess was hoping for some major life changes — getting chosen by a god wasn't what she had in mind. After a quarter-life crisis and quitting her job, she's abruptly plucked from Earth and whisked away to a new world. With nothing but a cryptic blessing from a god, Tess must carve out a new life in a land where magic, monsters, and character levels are all par for the course. Dark forces are stirring, she's woefully unprepared, and spiders keep trying to turn her into dinner. Follow Tess as she gets embroiled in the affairs of gods, embarking on a journey through blighted deadlands, bustling cities, and merciless dungeons.

Follow the story of Tianlian Liu Shu, a tree who starts knowing nothing and struggles to survive and extend her roots through the cosmos. The world she lives in is filled with fantastic sights and strange new cultures — and everyone in it has a system, even her. Despite being a tree, she finds herself with a group of women who fawn over her every branch and leaf. Tianlian Liu Shu, a female tree, isn't quite sure what to do with all of them.

Tim was always a planner — college, graduate, well-paying job. That plan was coming together until he saw a presentation at his graduation ceremony offering him a chance to get paid to play a virtual world called The Etheric Coast. He could spend his life in a cubicle and a one-bedroom apartment, or he could take a leap of faith into a world of unlimited possibilities. Now he just has to figure out how to get the job of his dreams, help his parents financially, and catch the attention of the girl of his dreams. Tim sure hoped the wave he was about to catch didn't kill him first.

The gods are dead, killed by a summoned hero. Exiled from his goblin tribe, Stump finds himself in a world reeling from an isekai — deity corpses litter the landscape, their guts imbuing the world with magical power, and their killer has become the new god. Stump carves out a small home in the slums of a city locked in twilight, in the fungal graveyard of a murdered divine. There he harnesses light magic to illuminate a small corner of his darkened world and starts a mercenary company to piece together his fractured neighbourhood through quests big and small. But there are those who long for another hero and the destruction they bring, willing to stop at nothing to recreate the apocalypse of the past.

You are an absolute nobody — nothing but a useless lump of meat, a delicious morsel for those who got lucky at the start. The only goal anyone expects of you is to die as quickly as possible. But this particular piece of food eats back.

Tad Lonnerman dies in traffic on his way to a crappy meeting. He wakes up uploaded to a beta test of Haven, an unannounced hyper-immersive MMO where the dead get a second chance at life — digital reality, not virtual reality. Except Haven is no blissful paradise. Tad bumbles into a pagan blood feud, crosses paths with fallen angels, and gets lied to by saints. His only allies are a frat boy with a penchant for dying and a pixie who won't give him the time of day. All Tad wants is to return to his old life — and he'll make a deal with the devil for the opportunity.

Alexander died and woke up in a world not so different from his own — except for the aliens, the superhumans, and somehow becoming a villain with a supervillain team. Now every hero and bounty hunter in the country is after him. In a world where the rich get away with murder and heroes cause as much destruction as the bad guys, Alexander intends to change that. At the center of all the madness is a System still being born — shaped by humanity's hopes, greed, and desperation — and it doesn't just want this world. It wants all of them.

At the end of everything, the Final Reaper won — but it was a hollow victory. Having killed everyone who wronged him or his people, he was left utterly alone. When Order's Voice offered a chance to reset the multiverse to an earlier time in exchange for most of his power, the choice was easy: start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. Landing in his old body, the Final Reaper becomes Thomas again — and chooses a new name for a new life: Serenity. He has ten years from the moment the Voice arrives to prevent Earth from losing the second round, as it did before. It will require a group effort, which is difficult for someone who has been alone for longer than he can reckon. A system apocalypse story designed so that a large percentage of humanity can survive and prosper — if they work together.

They stole his empire, his cultivation, even his name. Their mistake was leaving him alive. Now going by Shen Taros, he carries seven hundred years of experience in an eighteen-year-old body with the spiritual capacity of wet parchment. A god-like cultivator will hunt him within the year. In the meantime, he is opening meridians one painful breath at a time, learning alchemy from a terrifying mistress, and picking entirely avoidable fights with powerful people who consider themselves beyond justice. Between all of that, working in a decrepit fish warehouse, and dodging loan sharks, he is making remarkable progress. They wanted this Emperor permanently retired. He intends to disappoint them.

James Holden has reached the maximum level possible for a human — which is fortunate, because he is a wandering warrior without control of his destination, tossed between universes by gods who have failed to explain why. On each new world he serves as the lone Judge, righting wrongs the innocent cannot fix themselves, with one year to accomplish his mission. On his twentieth world, James quickly finds that the roots of corruption run deep — guilds protect themselves rather than the people, and monsters roam unchecked. Being the strongest human will not be enough this time. He may have to recruit some new blood, even if he prefers to work alone.

The gods are real — and they hate you. This wouldn't be true for most people, but for Samuel Lin, whose first interaction with a god was cursing them out, well, you get the idea. Sam was behind on his Master's thesis when he was selected as one of humanity's representatives in an interstellar battle royale: a fight to the death on the grandest cosmic scale. Dropped through a portal onto the slopes of Mt. Olympos, he discovers the only way to survive is to climb, and the only way to climb is to fight. Surrounded by enemies and marked for death by grudge-bearing gods, Sam faces a very interesting question: does he have what it takes to kill a god? Each Ring of the climb is a new world with new quests, new party members, and new ways to die.

Some girls are reborn as chosen heroes. She was reborn as the thing heroes are sent to kill. Waking up with scales, claws, and the overwhelming urge to steal treasure wasn't exactly the second chance she'd hoped for — but Barjuchne, the last dragon, the legendary terror, is hers now. And she is done being small. Gold fuels her evolution. Gems sharpen her scales. Every level she climbs pulls her further from the frightened human she was and closer to something ancient, powerful, and magnificent. The world wants her destroyed? Let them come. There's just one thing nobody warned her about when reincarnating as a dragon: the princesses. She's collecting those too, now. Mostly by accident. Whether she's stumbling through stammered confessions or accidentally declaring war with a misread gesture, her hoard of remarkable suitors keeps growing — and somewhere between protecting her treasure and protecting them, the most terrifying thing imaginable is happening: they might be falling for her.

Julia is a practical person. All she wanted was a home and family to call her own — a small piece of the world she could say was hers. Instead of arriving home one evening, she finds herself in the Abyss, trapped inside a cursed body. The curse may have caught her, but she certainly won't let it — or anyone else — tell her how she has to live. To escape, she will need to become strong enough to descend to the Abyss's deepest reaches, where the most dangerous secrets lie in wait. There is darkness in the Abyss, and a darkness within her that might draw it in — but she'll need to risk its strength if she ever wants to get home.
