Tyler Thorn worked all his life to rise above the hand he'd been given. His reward? Constant agony and six figures of medical debt. Now humanity has been abducted to the multiverse, and he wakes up in the midst of alien ruins, barely able to stand and faced with a swarm of vicious monsters. He must accept a Curse just to survive—forever sealing his magic within his body and rendering most forms of power completely inaccessible to him. But with the upside of an enormous mana pool, Tyler finds himself thriving—even if it’s only with the force of his relentless physical might.

Not long ago, Morgan Hall was a simple maintenance tech on a spacecraft bound for Tau Ceti. Then he and his shipmates found themselves unwillingly transplanted to Fanwath, where magic is real, danger abounds, and the almighty “System” grants levels, points, and powers based on one’s individual triumphs. Now, Morgan and his native Ardeni mate, Issa, have founded a growing colony for both their peoples, and they’re able to draw ever more tribes and lifeforms—even some of their former Urghat enemies—into trade and warfare alliances.

Luke is a straightforward man. There are only a few things he wants in life: Levels, things to fight to gain levels, and finding Cookie, so he can fight things more efficiently. Yet, the other members of his team are ready for some relaxation, and fun in the sun. After all, there should be huge perks that come with stopping an invasion in its tracks. But surprisingly, being famous for making the Kingdom wealthy and powerful has its downsides. Namely, there is now a huge price on their heads. The Four soon find themselves searching for a way to pit their power against the world.

Born magically talentless, Prince Corvus is an embarrassment to the royal family and is removed from succession. However, he still has a chance to win back his throne. The next man or woman to hatch a dragon automatically becomes the ruler. Each member of the royal family is gifted with a dragon egg, but it is the work of a lifetime to hatch it.

He and the other heroes of earth were charged with defending a perilous stretch of space known only as the Frontier. Hordes of long-forgotten Monsters would pummel them, breaking free from the mysterious Dungeon X to terrorize the galaxy once more.

Corvus has hatched his dragon, but the adventure is just beginning. Adopted by the nomadic Horse Folk, former prince, Corvus, and his dragon, Charm, have grown in both levels and skills. He’s happy, but Corvus worries his progress is starting to stall. When an old enemy of the monarchy rises to take revenge on the kingdom, Corvus knows he and his dragon must grow stronger. Fast. But his new life clashes with his old as a prince when he encounters his cousin, Starella, a girl who was once like a sister, but one he now can't trust.

In just seven days, the world will crumble. The System's Descent will usher in a new era of chaos: wild animals mutating, monstrous creatures emerging, and the cessation of modern technology. Humanity will be left defenseless. Drew Wright knows none of this. At least not until he is rudely ripped from his bed and thrust into a white room to undergo a taser-happy ‘Tutorial’. Turns out, he is one of a thousand randomly selected people to be forewarned of the approaching apocalypse. Now, he faces the delightful task of convincing his wife and mother of the devastation hurtling towards them.

Ragnarok is near and the Vikings of Midgard have failed to uphold their duty to prevent it. With time running out, the All-Father Odin himself, searches all the worlds for one last warrior who might hold back the destruction threatening Nine Realms and every world created. Magnus’s death caught the All-Father’s one good eye. As an Army Ranger, he knew he was placing himself in the line of fire every day, and knew a day could come that cost him his life. What he didn't want was the rest of his team would be wiped out with him, the worst disaster the Rangers had experienced in decades.

I was the Rift Magus—master of space and time, protector of worlds. For decades, I defended my realm with unmatched power. But when an unspeakable creature threatened everything I held dear, I was forced to create a rift to nowhere—a trap designed to seal it away for all time. It worked, but the creature was not without power itself.

The Incursion Event has been announced, and sapient races from across the multiverse are invading the newly integrated planet Earth. These beings have decades, centuries or even millennia of experience living within The System and wield powers far beyond the mutated Beasts and mana-spawned Monsters Drew and his friends have faced in the past.

Alexander and his growing legion have managed to escape Nova Roma and, more importantly, learned that the rest of the world may not be as ravaged by monsters as they had all thought. Join them as they set sail for ancient Venice, the Queen of the Adriatic, to try to learn more about the wider world outside Nova Roma. Along the way, they'll encounter a growing plague of deadly pirates, deceitful old merchant families out to quash any new competitors in the region, mysterious new allies, and much more.

I was the Rift Magus—master of space and time, protector of worlds. For decades, I defended my realm with unmatched power. But when I was reborn in the body of Lucian, a young noble in a different world, I had to start again. My strength was diminished but my knowledge remained, and I quickly reclaimed fragments of my lost powers--and even found some that were new. But this new life came with intrigues and rivalries of noble Houses, and obligations as well—one of which threatens to escalate out of control and put my progression at risk.

One minute Kade was driving home—the next, monsters spill in, reality rewrites itself, and humanity is thrust into a new paradigm. Earth is drafted by the System as a replacement for a dead world, but there's just one problem: humans, the System decides, are underpowered. The fix? Forcing them to level up. Most people scramble for survival, but Kade plans to thrive. He hunts levels, laughs at danger, and is determined to build something worth saving—partly for humanity, but mostly because this is the most fun he's ever had.

Jamie and Sierra have managed to establish a foothold in Overworld, but legion are those who hungrily eye their territory. Will Jamie be able to hold them at bay? Or will the inexorable might of the other races prove too great to bear?

My name is James Browning. Not long ago, I was a proud member of the 92nd Legion, the Star Ravagers. We were super-soldiers that defended humanity from aliens, heretics, and otherworldly threats. But a callous betrayal left my legion decimated, erased, and dishonored. I thought I was doomed to spend the rest of my life on a distant penal colony. But when I suddenly find myself stranded in an alien space station, surrounded by the wrecks of lost spaceships, I know I have a chance at escape.

The problem is, Niles isn’t okay with defeat and uses his knowledge to bring financial ruin to the once-powerful sisters. Of course, that’s not enough for our villain because his next stop is to hunt the beautiful Le Torneau family.

Moving out of her oppressive family home is the first time she’s been able to picture a life for herself.

We rule through fear and brutal, effective ruthlessness. I’ve never regretted my life of vengeance—of murder and mayhem as I search for my sister—until she arrived.

When his friend convinces him to try out the game, his father’s fame interferes, culminating in a heat-of-the-moment bet—If Eli can surpass Makaroth in the game, he’ll delete his character. Eli accepts, determined to show the world just how useless a guy his father truly is.
