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.

Viridescent Core

BlurryDreams

D41/100
Mortals see dungeons many ways — a plague to destroy, a resource to harvest, a place to train and advance. But all of them agree on one thing: dungeons are unnatural and deadly, places where death stalks every corner and monsters thrive. What mortals forget, in their hubris of tools and civilizations, is that Mother Nature is often the deadliest of all.

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.

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.

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.

Then he finds the cavern — crystals bigger than anything on the work floor, whispering secrets the guards would kill to keep buried. It's a path to power, maybe a path out. But he'll have to hide it from everyone until he's strong enough to stop hiding. No one leaves the mine alive. Andy intends to be the first.

Dark Fate

Stuart Grosse

D39/100
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.

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.

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?
