The Perfect Run

Maxime J. Durand (Void Herald)

S+97/100
The Perfect Run is now available on Amazon and Audible: Volume 1 (Audiobook), Volume 2 (Audiobook), Volume 3 Ryan "Quicksave" Romano is an eccentric adventurer with a strange power: he can create a save-point in time and redo his life whenever he dies. Arriving in New Rome, the glitzy capital of sin of a rebuilding Europe, he finds the city torn between mega-corporations, sponsored heroes, superpowered criminals, and true monsters. It's a time of chaos, where potions can grant the power to rule the world and dangers lurk everywhere. Ryan only sees different routes; and from Hero to Villain, he has to try them all. Only then will he achieve his perfect ending... no matter how many loops it takes. The Perfect Run updates on Tuesday and Saturday. Cover by Vitaly S. Alexius.

Villains' Code

Drew Hayes

S+95/100
Gifted with metahuman powers in a world full of capes and villains, Tori Rivas kept away from the limelight, preferring to work as a thief in the shadows. But when she's captured trying to rob a vault that belongs to a secret guild of villains, she's offered a hard choice: prove she has what it takes to join them or be eliminated. Apprenticed to one of the world's most powerful (and supposedly dead) villains, she is thrust into a strange world where the lines that divide superheroes and criminals are more complex than they seem. The education of a villain is not an easy one, and Tori will have to learn quickly if she wants to survive. On top of the peril she faces from her own teacher, there are also the capes and fellow apprentices to worry about, to say nothing of having to keep up a civilian cover. Most dangerous of all, though, are those who loathe the guild's very existence. Old grudges mean some are willing to go to any length to see the guild turned to ash, along with each one of its members. Even the lowly apprentices.

This story is about: The daily life of a teenager named Alden. He's growing up, slowly growing his powers, and figuring out who he really wants to be in a universe with Systems, superheroes, and extraterrestrial wizards. Readers can expect: character focused drama, slice of life, slow burn, darkness, comedy, occasional disaster, school life, and extensive world building on multiple worlds. I like a little danger with my alien beverage etiquette.Super Supportive will be very, very long. Everyone wants superpowers, including Alden Thorn. He's got determination on his side and maybe a murderous alien desk clerk, too. But his dream of being a battlefield support hero depends on him being chosen by the extraterrestrial System that's been running things on Earth for decades. And there's a bigger, more complicated universe waiting out there for those with magic. One that will challenge him and change him in ways he never could have expected. **Violence and darkness are present. This is fiction for adults. **Currently updating on the 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th, and 30th of each month

When you steal a hundred grand from some very bad people, the best way to survive is to stay small and quiet...Possibly its not to save a pair of drowning girls, not go 'viral' on social media and certainly not to let the local police take your passport, trapping you on a small 'party' island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.But Steve isn't the average guy, he's ex-military, ex-enforcer and ex-human. He's a one man nanite fuelled nightmare for those that cross the line, and he's decided that its time to clean up his act. He's going to make up for the things he's done, and save 'the little guys'.It's a nice fantasy, but even he has to admit, it's really just a justification, because he's a very bad man, with horrifying abilities, and he's only just learning what he's capable of. He needs a reason to not go to the dark, and if thats hunting down the creatures of the night and beating them to death with their own femurs?Well, he's just the man for the job.Stolen money. Greek Islands. Werewolves and Enforcers... what could possibly go wrong?

Magical Girl Gunslinger

Mikasane

S+91/100
“Would you like to make a contract?” When eldritch horrors known as the Anathema began tearing through reality to invade Earth, aliens calling themselves the Zenith stepped in to protect humanity. Individuals were chosen and gifted with the ability to use magic and advanced technologies to combat the existential threat. Over twenty-one years later, the so-called “Magical Guardians” are still hard at work keeping the peace. With their flashy outfits, superhuman abilities, and reality-defying spells, they are the part-time heroes and full-time idols of modern society. But none of that really matters to Mai, whose biggest problems are dealing with her family, classmates, and the ever growing dread of her imminent future. As far as Mai is concerned, mundane problems are more than enough to worry about, and the idea of magic and monsters might as well be nothing more than daydreams. At least, they were until she finds herself in the middle of an Anathema invasion… A Dark Magical Girl LitRPG with sci-fi elements. Note: Slow burn and slow, gradual introduction of LitRPG mechanics that become a focal point once introduced. Please be aware this story contains intense violence, gore, traumatic situations, and other potentially unsettling content. Chapters tend to be longer but with inconsistent updates. Art is AI generated by Puddz. This story is also posted on Spacebattles. This story is inspired by Stray Cat Strut, by RavensDagger. The "point system" for buying items is based on SCS's system. Magical girl Familiars are also a shared concept as both stories are in the magical girl genre. Some of the major differences between the two stories is this has a substantial LitRPG system including levels, stats, skills, magic, and also a generally darker tone. The first "arc" of the story is, however, an introduction into the world and characters, and as such, the LitRPG elements do not come into full play until later.

Martial Messiah

ToraAKR

S89/100
Strap in for a high stakes, edge of your seat adventure that will leave you thirsty for more, more, moreThe year is 2493The AI wars have come and goneWhen the AI infected the internet, three hundred years of industrial and technological advancements were eradicated overnight. After untold sacrifice, humanity won, barely. Victory was only possible thanks to the hidden martials revealing themselves and stepping onto the stage of history. They were named the Old Monsters—immortal superhumans with impossible strength and speed, capable of dismantling entire armies with their bare hands.Thus began the gold rush of the 25th century; the rush to fitness, to the unimaginable power displayed by the Old Monsters. Wars were abolished, replaced by duels. Ancient medicines were rediscovered and improved, enhancing lifespans and leading to an unprecedented boom in population across the globe.In this grand new era, a technology was perfected. It was supposed to be the AI’s greatest weapon and last ditch attempt to overtake Quantum computing. Twisted by the hands of its creators and enemies, the quantum computers birthed an unexpected advancement that once more shook the foundations of civilization.They called Time dilation.Through it, humans tripled their life expectancy. Have a thirty minute lunch break? Turn it into an hour and a half. Only two days of vacation with the family, why not make it six? In mere days, the fundamental human experience was flipped on its head. Of course, a world obsessed with martial prowess would not let such a good thing go unmolested.For ten years, corporations willing to cross any line in the name of profits strangled the world into submission by restricting access to the dilation. They turned countries against each other and assassinated anyone foolish enough to stand in their way, until only they remained in control.Then, they enslaved everyone.Raine KongRu signed a life-long contract with CronGate and spent his best years as another cog in the corporation's rise to power. He faced death at every turn, and barely came out breathing on the other end.Now, he’s awoken in his old body, two days before it all began. With a chance to amend his mistakes, he'll have his revenge while teaching the world exactly how deadly a man becomes after thirty years of the most brutal martial combat ever imagined.What you can expect to find in Martial Tension! ToraAKR’s overarching goal for Martial Messiah was to create a VRMMO that overcame the largest pitfall of its Tension. Readers beware, this is not a story you can enjoy relaxed comfortably in the back of your seat.Martial Messiah contains complex LitRPG and magic systems. A logical living world, where every action has rippling consequences that create a deep sense of immersion. Minimal contrived plot armor B.S. and an MC who isn't afraid of the fairer sex or engaging in meaningful relationships.

Super Sales on Super Heroes

William D. Arand

S85/100
In a world full of super powers, Felix has a pretty crappy one. He has the ability to modify any item he owns. To upgrade anything. Sounds great on paper. Almost like a video game. Except that the amount of power it takes to actually change, modify, or upgrade anything worthwhile is beyond his abilities. With that in mind, Felix settled into a normal life. A normal job. His entire world changes when the city he lives in is taken over by a Super Villain. Becoming a country of one city. A city state. Surprisingly, not a whole lot changed. Politicians were still corrupt. Banks still held onto your money. And criminals still committed crime. Though the black market has become more readily available. And in that not so black market, Felix discovers he has a way to make his power useful after all, and grasps a hold of his chance with both hands. Warning and minor spoiler: This novel contains graphic violence, undefined relationships/partial harem, unconventional opinions/beliefs, and a hero who is as tactful as a dog at a cat show. Read at your own risk.

This Magical Girl is Mine

VoraVora

S85/100
Fabulous riches, unfathomable power, and the undivided attention of the girl she's obsessed with—that's the offer the Jovians made to Rachel. All she has to do is sign the dotted line. Ten years ago, the planet Jupiter vanished from the night sky. That same day, the Jovians announced their presence on Earth by gifting magical powers to teenage girls. Then one of those girls—one of the first witches—blew up Texas. Now the Jovians are more selective, and they only choose adult women to join their war as magical girls and witches. Rachel has always had an interest in magical girls, but it became an obsession when she learned that her own roommate, Sophia, was secretly Strix Striga, one of the most powerful and respected magical girls in all of North America. Sophia’s double life as a heroine has left her without any time for Rachel—and the witches she fights get all the attention from Sophia that Rachel desperately craves. It’s infuriating. It’s untenable. But now Rachel is a witch, and one that the Jovians have taken a special interest in. With their guidance and her own burning drive, she’ll grow her power until she’s ready to challenge the invincible Striga. And then, at long last, her precious Sophia will be hers. This Magical Girl is Mine updates every Sunday and Wednesday, with a break week every 3-4 weeks. Each chapter will tell you when the next break week is happening in the author's note at the bottom. Note: this story will never go to KU exclusivity. It will remain free for everyone forever.

Erind Hartwell: dutiful daughter, law student, psychopath, film enthusiast—one of these makes her not normal. Was it the law student thing? Maybe. Still, she's relatively normal in a world where superhumans fight eldritch horrors that turn people into monsters. Viewing life as a movie, Erind’s wish to become the main character is granted unexpectedly: on the brink of death, an otherworldly entity offers her powers. Becoming a monster doesn’t sound like how a main character should be, but there isn’t much of a choice, as she was dying, impaled by a spike. She can probably make this monster thing work. Follow an endearing psychopath and her shenanigans in the middle of a battle between superhumans, hi-tech government agents, monsters, mutants, and wannabe heroes for Earth and the future of humanity.

Dean Koontz

A83/100
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Following Last Light comes Final Hour, the second of two standalone eBook original novellas leading in to Ashley Bell, the highly anticipated new novel of suspense from Dean Koontz! Just by touching others, Makani Hisoka-O’Brien can see the darkest secrets they keep. The troubling talent has made the Southern California surfer wary of casual contact. But while impulsively saving a stranger from an accident, she experiences her most disturbing vision. With only a good friend to help her, and mere traces of information to guide her, Makani must track down two mysterious women—one of them innocent, one not. But Makani is stepping into the path of an adversary more dangerous than she can a brutal predator behind a pretty face, who won’t go down without drawing blood. Acclaim for Dean Koontz “Dean Koontz is a prose stylist whose lyricism heightens malevolence and tension. [He creates] characters of unusual richness and depth . . . with a level of perception and sensitivity that is not merely convincing; it’s astonishing.”—The Seattle Times “Demanding much of itself, Koontz’s style bleaches out clichés while showing a genius for details. He leaves his competitors buried in the dust.”—Kirkus Reviews “A rarity among bestselling writers, Koontz continues to pursue new ways of telling stories, never content with repeating himself.”—Chicago Sun-Times “Tumbling, hallucinogenic prose. ‘Serious’ writers . . . might do well to examine his technique.”—The New York Times Book Review “[Koontz] has always had near-Dickensian powers of description, and an ability to yank us from one page to the next that few novelists can match.”—Los Angeles Times “Koontz is a superb plotter and wordsmith. He chronicles the hopes and fears of our time in broad strokes and fine detail, using popular fiction to explore the human condition.”—USA Today “Characters and the search for meaning, exquisitely crafted, are the soul of [Koontz’s] work. . . . One of the master storytellers of this or any age.”—The Tampa Tribune “A literary juggler.”—The Times (London)
