Shadow Sun

When Earth is seized by an ancient alien race wielding incredibly advanced tech and transported to a new location with twin suns, gamer geek Allistor finds himself fighting to survive in real life. The human race is declared a contaminant, and the new overlords decree that 90% of humanity will be exterminated. After seeing his family killed in the first week, Allistor leads a small group of survivors in their struggle to stay alive. Not satisfied with simple survival, he strives to make himself and his people stronger. The new RPG system that now governs the planet is something he can work with — and teach others to exploit. Thrust into a leadership position with vengeance in his heart, Allistor aims to establish a stronghold and take the fight to the monsters who seek to enslave his people.

The human race has become nearly extinct. Allistor and his small group push to make themselves stronger, fighting to survive the year-long Stabilization. Forced to battle increasingly stronger and more deadly monsters, they work to expand their holdings, learn better spells, and gather resources to improve their crafting. Dungeons must be cleared, and dragons defeated. Fellow survivors are found — some friendly, some hostile. Allistor considers every human life precious, but when it becomes a case of kill or be killed, hard choices must be made. And each day brings them closer to the invasion of Earth.

The one-year Stabilization period has ended, and the aliens are colonizing Earth. Allistor and his people have prepared as well as possible, and now they'll find out if it was enough. Earth's survivors continue to fight for their lives and to reclaim as much of the earth as they can for the human race. More than one alien faction threatens their existence, while others prove to be staunch allies. Allistor and company learn more about the system, its mechanics and politics, and take the first step in bringing the fight to their enemies off-world.

Allistor, now both a Planetary Prince of Earth and Emperor of Orion, faces a new set of challenges. Thrust completely unprepared into the realm of interplanetary politics, he must navigate the pitfalls of dealing with more powerful races and factions. At the same time, he strives to continue his mission to strengthen the human race, bring other survivors into the fold, and claim as much of the earth as possible for humans. Hard choices have to be made, new and deadly enemies surface, and friends are lost. Allistor's acquisition of a particular artifact places a target squarely on his back. And behind it all, the Ancient Ones continue to meddle in Earth's affairs.

Allistor just wants to restore the human race. He's doing his best to locate other survivors around the world and unite them. The drake eggs are hatching, and a small army of class trainers are helping to make his citizens stronger than ever. But fate, and the aliens who keep throwing stronger and more deadly challenges at him, are working against Allistor. The threat of vengeance from the Fomorian Matron, the machinations of Loki and Hel, and the jealousy of a fellow human with a lesser noble title all add to the pressure. When seeming good fortune turns to tragic loss, Allistor must push through and remain strong in order to face the very beings responsible for the apocalypse on Earth — and even victory has dire consequences.

Allistor has struggled almost nonstop since the apocalypse, rising from a scared gamer geek with nothing to become Emperor of Earth and several other worlds. Now, as he attempts to consolidate and stabilize his holdings, he faces the consequences of the very actions that helped him rise to power. Invictus has grown — millions of new citizens now look to him for support and protection. While he tries to gather together the human survivors across Earth, new enemies arise to threaten his empire. His worst fears confront him, and Allistor is not prepared.
