Dragon Riders of Lon

Han Yang

D41/100
Inside the Dragon's Tower, the fate of the world hangs in the balance. Climbers from all corners must brave harrowing floor after floor — each tougher than the last — for a single prize awaiting at the top: a dragon's egg. To Tem, a farmhand from the frontier, the Tower seemed straightforward enough. The harsh truth involves politics, personal sacrifice, and unfathomable struggles just to keep advancing. The fate of the world rests in the hands of the brave, and Tem is not one to back down.

Taste of Magic: Archbishop's Command

AmberAtlas

D41/100
What if the world's strongest mage traded her legendary power for a rolling pin? [Archmage] Melina rewound time to save Alemahria and sacrificed her magic, leaving the Church and nobles behind. Instead of fighting monster hordes, she will knead, bake, and for the first time ever taste a slice of happiness. But peace is elusive when old enemies lurk in the shadows, the Church still haunts her, and her best customer is a tart-obsessed wyrm.

The Other Guys

JK Galioto

D40/100
Jack Jensen is a middle-aged nobody in an uninteresting town, having sampled every job available and excelled at nothing but growing his beer gut and his luxurious curly hair. His life is one of unrealized potential. Things change when his brother, an Army Major, lands a helicopter in the parking lot of Jack's barely-profitable gaming store — desperately thrusting the perennial slacker into the role of saving the country, the world, and, most unlikely of all, himself.

Summoned by Monster Girls

M.Tress

D40/100
Life hit Liam Cosgrave hard. Forced to work a dead-end job just to survive, he barely had energy for anything else — until he was summoned to another world in a freak accident. Sitting in his truck after a fender-bender, Liam found himself transported to a realm where humans are creatures of legend. A pair of young women had been trying to summon a party member for a school project and got far more than they bargained for. Before he could even settle in, the same mysterious force shot him back to Earth — with a parting message that the girls would call him back soon. And so Liam's life of balancing his day job with being summoned to another world began.

The City and the Dungeon

Matthew Schmidt

D40/100
The City is an immense metropolis of crystal spires and wondrous magic. Beneath it lies the Dungeon — a vast underground world, source of endless treasure guarded by grotesque and deadly monsters. No one knows where the Dungeon came from, or why. Anyone who dares its dangers must first be transformed into a delver, a quasi-immortal creature defined entirely by numbers. Yet the immortality offered is illusionary: without consuming the crystal found only within the Dungeon, a delver will inevitably die. One young immigrant braves the Dungeon to send money home to his family — and finds much, much more.

Glowing text informs her she has become a Worldwalker — one of seven chosen to play the Great Game, a contest that unfolds every two centuries and reshapes empires.

How I Became the Strongest Man in the Galaxy

bd90z

D40/100
Peter Brookes should be dead. Instead, he's been abducted by aliens, tasered awake by a condescending robot, and offered a chance to earn a place in a galaxy-wide battle royale watched by trillions. The rules to qualify are simple: grow stronger, reach the top of the leaderboard, and don't die. Given a cabin, a few tools, a stat system, and no useful skills whatsoever, Peter's solution is obvious: chop trees until reality breaks. Joined by a smug, talking arboreal observer, he ignores danger, takes absolutely nothing seriously, and accidentally becomes terrifyingly powerful. A comedic progression fantasy featuring steady growth, escalating nonsense, and a protagonist whose answer to life-or-death situations is usually, "How hard can it be?"

Dark Fate

Stuart Grosse

D40/100
The world ended — or rather, the world as it was known ended, replaced by one with a System, with levels, hit points, and stats. Monsters spawned and preyed on the weak. The Black Knight rose as one of humanity's greatest champions, striking down warlords and monsters to protect the people. Then, at the moment of his greatest triumph, he was betrayed by his lover and closest friend and struck with a cursed blade. The explosion cast him back in time, into his own body before the System Apocalypse began. He had been a hero — and all it earned him was betrayal and death. This time, he would become the darkness itself, and bend it to his will.

Stormborn Ascendant

K. H. Nulls

D39/100
They measure mana in drops. Tyler wields an ocean. Tyler Thorn worked all his life to rise above the hand he'd been given — his reward was constant agony and six figures of medical debt. Now humanity has been abducted to the multiverse, and he wakes in alien ruins, barely able to stand and surrounded by vicious monsters. He accepts a Curse just to survive, one that forever seals his magic within his body and renders most forms of power inaccessible to him. But the upside is an enormous mana pool. With a body that never tires, a mind that never dulls, and near-infinite magical energy coursing through his veins, Tyler will grow faster than the legends about him can form.

The Rise of Resurgence

Joshua W. Nelson

D39/100
Alex Stanton was living every gamer's dream — he was getting paid to play. The latest generation of virtual reality gaming was being beta tested by AltCon, with never-before-seen graphical detail and a fully functional whole body immersion system. AltCon was so serious about their beta that they paid testers a salary to ensure their lives revolved around the game. But odd things start happening from the outset — things Alex can't explain. Like every hardcore gamer, he has no problem ignoring the little things to focus on the grander design. In time, even the littlest things pile up, and Alex is forced to ask himself: what's really going on in Resurgence?

Quiet Life Of The Mute Archmage

P_Magno

D39/100
Rescued from the slums by a kindly Sage, Molly discovers a talent for magic unlike anyone else's. While others chant to shape Root and Structure, Molly sees the symbols in silence. When she awakens her true Affinity — [Epilogue] — she learns her power doesn't just use archmage-level magic. It ends it. Even the gods fear the silence of Epilogue. When her mentor dies, her final wish is simple: hide, enroll in the academy, graduate, find a party, and do not end up alone again. Disguising a divine-level threat as an average hero-in-training is hard enough — harder still when the heavens are watching, waiting for the one mortal who holds the key to their undoing. In a world where only those with a voice are heard, can a mute girl defy the pantheons?

Lich Lord

Levi Werner

Reincarnated in the body of a Lich — an enemy to all — that's just problem number one. Zeke was only playing the villain to blow off steam. Now he's stuck in the body of one. Trapped in a hostile world, he must flee his former guild into a holy kingdom ruled by the Church of Olattee. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. His power is gone and he must start over.

The QuestWright

J.D. Mullenary Sr.

D39/100
Cassio Vale was passed over by the System three times. On his final chance, it responds with a rarely seen Calling: QuestWright — tasked with drafting and assigning quests in a world where structured survival depends on more than just strength. Cass doesn't wield a weapon or cast spells. He builds reputation through smart delegation, navigates a society held together by logistics as much as blades, and earns experience through completion rather than combat. A grounded LitRPG focused on city-level strategy, logistics puzzles, and the slow accumulation of meaningful impact.

Battle World

Cassius Lang

D39/100
The Great Ones arrived on Earth and conquered with little bloodshed — they came not for resources, but for humanity's strongest warriors. Those warriors are shipped to Hadran, an artificial planet that serves as a cosmic gladiatorial arena where slave races fight for the entertainment of their masters. Earth has now lost its last true champions and risks losing candidate status entirely — which would make it a target for cleansing. Clint Rogan is forcibly merged with a faulty symbiote and dropped into Terraria One, a starting zone that resembles the Middle Ages. With humanity's fate in the balance, Clint and the other new arrivals must rebuild, conquer territory, and survive long enough to give Earth a fighting chance.
