I wasn’t born to rule. I’m the king’s second son, the spare that won’t inherit any real power. Despite my fate, I’ve always felt like I was destined for more.

Nobody ever said the Path of Progression was easy, but my burning desire to dive can’t be quenched. I just never thought I’d be prohibited from getting a diving license just because I tried to help a bratty blonde girl get hers. Soon, we’re joined by a lovely brunette bookworm, and we start diving the dungeon on our own terms.

I survived the war and my first term at magic school. How hard could meeting the parents be? Turns out when your girlfriends include a princess, a dragon-blooded noble, a monster hunter from a legendary family, and a demonic duchess, "meeting the family" involves a lot more than awkward small talk over dinner. But holiday drama takes a backseat when revolutionaries start bombing the capital of Umbrica.

Two centuries ago, the First Expansionary Fleet set off to the farthest reaches of the galaxy, hoping to explore, colonize, and conquer new worlds in the name of humanity.

Now, after generations of relentless fighting, a tentative truce has finally ushered in an era of growth and prosperity.

The Revelation: A name given to an event that, five years ago, changed the world forever. In a single day, humanity discovered that not only were they not alone, but they were not exactly at the top of the food chain. Living in the shadows for millennia, supernaturals now had no choice but to finally come into the light. Because of the fury of a mad god, humans and supernaturals now had to learn to coexist side by side for the first time in living memory.

Duncan, Kithani, and Vess have survived a gruesome battle, but the war against the Riven horde is far from over. Even bolstered by their new abilities, they are impossibly outnumbered.

One minute, Kaelan’s a marketing exec with a dreary life. The next, he’s summoned by a gorgeous priestess into a world of swords, magic, and a warlord out for his blood.

With unique and mighty powers to unlock, levels to gain, and some daring damsels on his team, can he survive long enough to save the kingdom?

Centuries ago, a cabal of powerful mages cast a disastrous spell that corrupted the source of magic, transforming much of the world's population into merciless monsters called Riven. Empires crumbled. Civilization collapsed. Yet an ember of hope remains. Duncan Keene is a Dread Knight, a dark warrior empowered by an unholy pact with a demon lord. He has sacrificed everything to save the world from the Riven—his family, his future, even his very soul. When he finds himself unexpectedly partnered with the last uncorrupted angel in the world, she makes it her mission to redeem him.

Duncan and his girls have uncovered a demonic plot to destroy the last remnants of civilization, but they have no hope of stopping it on their own. Yet to assemble the army they need, they must set aside old grudges and forge an unlikely partnership—not only with the woman who cast Duncan into the Condemned, but with a man who wants to destroy the Dread Knights once and for all.

I thought surviving the war was hard. Turns out, being a celebrity war hero at magic school comes with its own unique challenges. Just when I was getting comfortable with my new life at Stoneway Academy, the monsters in the Shadow Wood of Misery decided to get a lot more aggressive, and I can't help but feel like it's my problem to deal with.

Deep in the shattered remnants of a dead moon, an ancient artifact pulses with Supernal Energy—power from before the Multiverse itself. The Hellmarine and his battle-scarred Stygians have stumbled onto a secret that Heaven would kill to possess and Hell would burn worlds to claim.

Arthur Cain was a hero to his city, the most accomplished and respected of the firefighters in his entire district. But when a call comes in from the so-called "Halfbreed Heights", the monsterfolk part of the city, Arthur's life gets flip-turned upside down. Though he saved the life of a matronly lamia that day, he was also partially crippled and forced into early retirement. Now unable to fit the image of her personal superman, Arthur's wife divorces him and leaves him to move into a cheaper home in the same monsterfolk slum that caused his current situation.

Mason and his brother Blake have so far survived the Great Game, and even thrived. But for how much longer?

With charm, and an army of constructs, he intends to make the once-enemies into allies. And that's just the start of his ambitions...

After years as the Free States of Caldia's most lethal weapon, all I want is to study magic at Stoneway Academy and find something resembling a normal civilian life. The Great War against the Democratic Republic of Auropa has finally come to a ceasefire, but tensions haven't necessarily died down overnight.

Everyone knows not to cross the campus d-bags. On or off the ice. You don’t sneak into their house, thinking no one’s watching. You don’t ransack their bedrooms, tripping over hockey gear as you rummage through their things. And you definitely don’t get caught with your head under one’s bed and your size-16 backside pointed right at their camera.

Life hit Liam Cosgrave hard, like it has for a lot of people. Forced to work a dead end job to make ends meet, he barely had energy to do anything besides work and sleep. His life was basically just day to day survival. That is, until he was summoned to another world in a freak accident. Sitting in his truck after a fender bender on the highway, Liam was questioning whether something was out to get him.

Mason the survivalist was always preparing for the end of the world. He just didn’t expect a god-like AI to transform it into a damn video game. Now he has to pick a ‘class’, survive a ‘tutorial’ (filled with monstrous creatures trying to murder him), and somehow find his brother Blake before the idiot gets himself killed. OK. Blake’s no idiot. He’s a charming, incredibly lucky, ambitious world-beater. But he was destined for corporate boardrooms, not monster filled forests, and Mason knows he needs to reach him before it’s too late.

Walking home from a party, a demon attacks him. Instead of dying from shock at the sight of a beast that shouldn’t exist, Ace discovers that he is the last in a line of divinely chosen demon hunters. But now the demons know too, and he’ll have to fight for his survival while learning on the fly. And even worse — an ancient horror sets plans in motion that could end the world. Luckily, an enchanting witch is there to help him learn to control his new magic and powers. They’ll have to work together to save everyone they love.

Toby Adams saved the world once before. Now he must do it again. The catch? This world isn’t Earth. It’s Eclipsia, a fantasy realm Toby visited as a kid. And he’s having a bit of trouble remembering how he accomplished his world-saving mission the first time. Magic was involved, he’s sure of that. Powerful companions, too. Possibly even a magical weapon of some kind.
