Now she finds herself trapped inside the body of the game's most feared villain, in a world that is anything but virtual.

Being a zombie used to be boring. Chloe walked around the dungeon, got chopped up by adventurers, and respawned — over and over, until one day she woke up. Now she has smarts and a taste for freedom. Why stay in a stinky dungeon when there's a whole world to explore? Gods are stirring up chaos and treating the world like a game, and powerful factions are moving to stop them — but Chloe is mostly just here to eat brains.

It's Drop Night — the one night every decade when the gods hand out cards to a lucky few.

Now, wielding a sacred gem containing Ares' power, he must recreate the Amazonian defenders of humanity and fortify the island stronghold — or Hades will unleash his army of the damned.

In a future where top gamers are celebrities, Liam is pulled into an obscure virtual world called the Crucible Shard — starting at level one with no gear, no skills, and no roadmap.

The line between the virtual world and Earth blurs as artificial intelligences pursue their own ambitions across both realms.

The demons won. The world ended. Wulf, one of the last survivors, is sent back forty-one years to prevent the apocalypse — starting over as a first-year at Istalis Academy with his advancement reset. There's a catch: he's been given a seemingly useless crafting class instead of his former fighter abilities. No one can know, or he'll be expelled. But the more Wulf learns, the more he suspects the class change is no accident — perhaps what mankind needs isn't just his future knowledge, but someone whose legendary class can change fate itself.

Torn from her life and cast into the world of her favorite game, Addy awakens as Nephthys — her own endgame character, a being powerful enough to level nations. But power does not come with purpose. At the head of a guild she built for conquest, not responsibility, Nephthys must decide how, and whether, she should wield the kind of strength that can reshape the world around her.

Eric Peters has been reborn — sent back in time to change humanity's fate. After experiencing a future where all of humanity's planets and colonies had been purged, Eric refused to fall, and an Entity chose him to be humanity's last hope. The Reborn are galactic boogiemen — myths used to terrify children and curb the aggression of advanced alien civilizations, usually granted powers able to destroy star systems. But in Eric's case, the Entity gave him abilities barely classed as special. With only his memories and a couple of minor boons, he must survive evil elements within humanity, circling alien races, and change history enough so that when the Traclaon Empire declares war, his species can fight back.

Five hundred years ago, the system broke magic. Mana went wild, turning the dead into abominations and wrenching all unbound magic from human hands.

In the dark home of an ancient Archmage, Leo discovers something that shouldn't exist: an item that sets him on a journey into ancient magic and terrifying delves.
