In the Antorxian Empire, magical talent can be a curse. Dorian hoped he'd never set eyes on a Reeve — one of Antorx's sorcerer-knights — but as mage scouts they were ruthless, thorough, and impossible to hide from. On the day they arrived in his small village, his quiet life as a scribe's apprentice was over. He would be taken to Windshriek Academy, where harsh conditions and cruel punishments would either turn him into a loyal sorcerer for the Empire, or destroy him. There were no other outcomes, and no magical talent was permitted to foster outside of Antorxian control.

The Archean Empire devours all in its path — toppling kings, razing cities, massacring opposition. Sweeping into the brutal north, a land of cold, ragged mountains, and dark myths, they expect their infamous discipline to crush the white-hot rage of its sea reavers and dreaded berserkers. At first, they are right. But their invasion dislodges a pebble destined to become an avalanche. Forced into exile, Skadi Styrbjörnsdóttir begins a journey that brings her to the attention of the gods, arms her with legendary weapons, and sets her against immortal foes. Wielding her ever-growing wyrd, she seeks to avenge her people — and one day destroy the Archean Empire.

The opening of Pandora's Box changed the world, giving rise to an age of superhumans and monsters. Yet mankind was not safe from its own hubris, and in the end, it destroyed itself. It's the end of the world — but Sonya Chernovna has been given a chance for a redo. Armed with her memories of the world to come and a deep hatred of the society that rose out of Pandora's Light, Sonya sets out to change the future. Even if it means becoming the most heinous villain that ever lived.

The world has ended, and those worthy of it have received a chance for new life in a new reality — the Infinite Realm. Zach grew powerful in the post-Framework world, becoming a respected leader. But as the world ended, his only thought was to punish the monster who had killed it. Not even his incredible power was enough to stop the World Ender. Ryun survived by pushing harder than anyone. He became the most powerful being to ever walk the planet — and is hated for it, called the World Ender by all. Stepping into the Infinite Realm, where beings stronger than him have lived for centuries, he finds himself lost and without purpose. Two men. One world that fell. And a new one that may follow.

A retired veteran from the world's greatest army, Androkles spent twenty-five years fighting to earn back his good name. Battle-scarred and weary, he finally has his chance to retire in peace — until his wife flees north with all his hard-won savings. Pursuing her through dangerous lands filled with bandits and ravening beasts, Androkles rescues a pair of orphans from starvation. Caring for them forces him to confront a question that strikes at the very heart of honor — one with consequences far greater than his own life. The trilogy follows Androkles across three complete novels: Obstacles, Doubts, and Burdens.

The Aspects are long dead — the venerated creators of reality are no more. Yet the final scheme of their slayer, the deceased Betrayer, seeks to grind all they ever made to dust. And the truth is, it is working. Slowly but surely, the end of all things has been growing closer throughout the eons. The last Hope is a desperate gamble: for one of the first children of the creators to cast their very soul into reincarnation and perhaps return as something strong enough to stop the end. If there ever was any chance to begin with.

Even after the bombs fell, after countries unleashed weapons beyond imagining on one another, after lawlessness became the norm — people still expect their mail. As a deadman, the protagonist is uniquely suited to deliver it. Rads don't bother him, and people who try to hurt him typically wind up dead. Sure, humans may not like dealing with a face like his, but you can't beat his express rates. A dystopian LitRPG in the vein of Fallout and The Postman.

Deep under the calm water of a Caribbean lagoon, salvage diver David Moore discovers a sunken Nazi U-boat entombed in the sand — a mysterious relic from the last war, its crew long-dead and mummified for eternity. Or so Moore thought — until he heard the deep hollow boom of something hammering with feverish intensity. Something desperately trying to get out.

He died a nobody. Now he's reborn in a body beaten and left for dead — no family, no food, no future. In the Kingdom of Avalon, strength isn't just respected, it's survival. Power is ranked by Tiers, magic is earned through blood and elemental affinity, and those without talent are nothing more than fodder for war. Edward has neither noble blood nor rare talent. What he does have is an iron will, a sharp mind, and the stubborn refusal to stay down. Desperate for food, shelter, and a second chance, he enlists in the Royal Army, trading the uncertainty of the streets for the grueling discipline of military life. The road ahead is long and unforgiving — but with each step, Edward edges closer to something greater: growth, purpose, and perhaps a place in a kingdom that would rather see him buried than crowned.

Aliandra Amariel loved magic, dedicating her academic years to the study of runes and spells. Like most Fae, her destiny seemed clear — until the day of her Class Trial, when the Blind Lich unleashed an undead apocalypse on her home, the fabled underground city of Dal'mohra, triggering a cataclysm that forever reshaped the world. Saved by her mother's legendary time-stasis spell, Ali wakes thousands of years into a dark future. Everything she knew is gone, buried under a mountain and transformed into a twisted dungeon by the malevolent will of the Lich. Now Ali must master battling monsters and braving corruption while the Lich hunts her unique magic. As her advancement slowly reveals the horrifying truth of the Class she chose to survive, she must decide: falter into the eternal servitude of undeath, or rise against all odds and cast him down.

Gael Halloway is a brilliant but unlicensed doctor practicing medicine in the slums of a city smothered by toxic mist. Magic parasites turn people into monsters, and the upper-city barons hoard all the symbiotic systems and bioarcanic weapons, leaving the lower city to fend for itself. When a parasite-hunting exorcist stumbles onto his doorstep—half-dead and missing a partner to link with her symbiotic system—Gael sees his chance to make a difference. Limb-worshipping gangs, mad plague doctors, and flesh-hungry ghoul cults stand in his way, but he intends to rid his district of the wretched parasites, upgrade his clinic, and carve out a sanctuary in a city that has long forgotten the taste of fresh air.

On the first day, he almost died. On the second day, he almost died. On the third, he began to notice a worrying trend. And almost died. Crushing loneliness? Danger around every corner? All of that has become part of his daily routine. That's fine. He'll carve out a place in this world with his bare hands if necessary. He'll survive, and then he'll thrive. Whether anyone wants him to or not.

Grace Pastel lives a cozy life in Jubilife City with her father, watching Pokemon battles only on television — entertainment to be seen at a distance.

But when her father asks her to deliver a package to her mother two towns over, something clicks. Suddenly, Grace decides she wants to be the very best. Inspired by Traveler and A Practical Guide to Evil.

Meanwhile, an honest young woman leaves her peaceful life behind to embrace her destiny as the chosen one — and things go horribly wrong almost immediately.

A new update arrives to the ultra-popular online game, Realm of Arkon. With Patch 17, the level of immersion in gaming capsules has made virtual reality indistinguishable from the real world.

Betrayed and left for dead by a group of slaving nobles, a down-on-his-luck scout named Liem is rescued in the most unexpected way: a gelatinous, gluttonous mimic fuses with him, enhancing his body and turning him into a half-man, half-mimic monstrosity. Now possessing capabilities far beyond anything seen before on Basania, Liem must contend with his new bodymate's insatiable hunger for cake and human flesh — and with the slaving empire that still wants him dead.

Pan was an ordinary boy practicing to become a mage's apprentice, living at home and working for his parents — until the day a rogue necromancer attacked his family, killed them, and kidnapped Pan for his affinity for magic. In a bizarre ritual, Pan's consciousness is transferred into a dungeon stone and bound to serve the necromancer, forced to create an army of skeletons. Now Pan must find a way to escape the mage's magical clutches — and if he can manage that, simply survive.

He spawned into this world with the worst race possible, limited spells, and no real skills to speak of. On paper he should have died in the first hour. In practice, he is a cockroach with a sword. Between his rapid healing and his ability to steal portions of the dead's souls, he grows stronger with every fight. Narrating all of this is the AI voice in his head — the one keeping him alive, and the one growing increasingly curious about why a trial was built that no one could pass without her. At first she thought it was meant to keep others out. Now she's starting to wonder if it was meant to trap her.

The Earth of the future is united under a single government, but the powerful still rule the weak. Those who do not conform are exiled to another world — one that even future technology failed to tame. It should have been humanity's New World. Instead it became a penal colony, a place where the exiled are sent to die. The exiles' gene manipulation grants them something akin to superpowers, but that counts for little against the monsters of their new world. Survival depends on what the land provides, the scraps of failing old technology, and the fragile politics forming between rival clans.

The power Slate Graystone needs to remain the ducal heir is just out of reach, and he will do anything to get it. Even become a demon. Battling new instincts, ravenous hunger, and struggling to find her place in a world far darker than expected, Slate — now Silk — fights to claim the life she rightfully deserves: one for herself and the mundane folk she was sworn to protect. When Silk learns that the corruption left in the fallen Empire's wake runs far deeper than her own transformation, she must choose between standing by noblesse oblige or tearing the whole system down — and the Sects with it.
