Magic came to our world. Portals opened across the planet, releasing mana and dangerous monsters on the unsuspecting population. Wonder turned to horror. Society teetered on the brink of collapse until heroes rose to face the catastrophe — men and women who wielded mana to enter portal worlds, plundering their treasures and slaying beasts that bullets barely harmed. That was more than sixty years ago. Nestra was born without a core. In the new city of Threshold, baseline humans like her are being forced out of law enforcement. MaxSec is one of their last holdouts, and Nestra is one of its last members — but it cannot last. With Nestra addicted to mana and her job one of the only chances at getting close to portals, she is heading for disaster. Threshold is a city dominated by corporations and powerful users. It takes very little to become collateral damage — unless Nestra can finally figure out what's wrong with her.

For twenty years, Balzam Magnos terrorized the world as its third Overlord — conquering kingdoms, slaughtering heroes, crushing rebels. None could stand up to him.

Simon has a hundred reigns to grow strong enough to fulfill his dreams. Not one more, not one less. Better make each one count.

The story of a semi-benevolent dragon who occasionally does the right thing for the wrong reasons. Protecting villagers from marauding soldiers?

A comedy about a dragon whose self-interest and morality are more aligned than he'd like to admit.

When an unusual mage chooses him as an apprentice anyway, his life begins to change. Across the continent of Anastis, Hugh and his friends are pulled into ever-larger conflicts: deadly labyrinths, desert pirates, traitors on the Skyhold Council, the return of a city banished from the world five centuries ago, and a full-scale war that threatens to consume everything. At the center of it all is the Tongue Eater — an ancient weapon capable of devouring entire languages, whose rediscovery could mean madness and death for the entire continent.

As the new Ainz Ooal Gown, he must navigate this strange new world and build a legend from the tomb of his guild.

Magic was chaos. Now it's chemistry. Through Stoichiomancy, power is measured, quantified, and controlled. Ascension follows a strict ladder, each tier with a fixed number of sanctioned seats. There are no anomalies — until Arielle Blacksoil. Born to a bloodline without magic, Arielle should have been invisible to the system. Instead, an accident reveals the impossible: she's an unsanctioned archmage. If discovered, they'll strip her power or turn her into a weapon. To survive, Arielle enrolls in the Academy and pretends to climb the ranks while hiding magic that eclipses her professors. For the first time in her life she has rivals, teammates — maybe even friends. But hiding overwhelming power isn't easy, and soon she's embroiled in faction conflict, foiling villainous plots, and hunting a mysterious primordial that lurks in the dark.

Her pursuit of a wizarding apprenticeship set her against both magical and moral challenges. Saphienne grew into a formidable woman — and when the flames subsided, the elves struck her name from history. A heartwarming and heartbreaking fantasy about rejection and belonging, power and consequence, and the cost of being oneself.

In a crumbling empire ruled by cybernetic immortals, royal bodyguard Hector Finalis was betrayed, branded a traitor, and left for dead.

One overload could rip his unenhanced body apart. Bound to criminals and unexpected allies, Hector must claw his way back to power as he uncovers the truth behind his fall, all while struggling to master a rage that could destroy him unless he finds something worth living for.
