Max Stone's laid-back life ends abruptly when a foolhardy rescue attempt earns him a ticket to the afterlife. Instead of heaven or hell, his soul becomes a poker chip in a game between gods. Winning a second chance, Max chooses to keep his memories through an agonizing process, awakening reincarnated not as a baby, but in the frail, teenage body of a recently deceased boy on Eedan—a world of chi cultivation, magic, and monsters straight out of fantasy epics.

We escaped from New York City, but the mages are still hot on our heels. We’re heading west, to see a man about a gun. Actually, a lot of guns. Any gun I touch I can summon back, so I need to grow my arsenal to have a chance to fend off our pursuers and make it to the west coast. Unfortunately, we’ll have to traverse miles mutant-infested wilderness to get to our contact, and even if we make it through the mutant lands, the mages could easily be waiting for us on the other side. I’m definitely gonna need a lot of guns.

Ben and Mira have driven the orcs off the deer women’s island, but the question is not if the orcs will return, but when. As if the orcs weren’t bad enough, Ben spots a simultaneously new and ancient enemy on the horizon.

At Sanguine Academy, blood is the only thing that matters. Too bad Michael's is trying to kill him. As a child, I was nearly killed by a demon, and ever since, the only thing I've cared about is becoming a blood knight. Using the mana inside my blood to protect others from the monsters that plague the world. Eight years I devoted to training, and finally, I was ready to be tested. My blood was measured and assessed, laid bare for all to see. And it was found wanting.

The arsenal of guns that I can summon has grown along with the number of my allies, and we have managed to outrun the pursuing mages for the time being. Unfortunately, to get away from them we had to go places they won’t: mutant infested wilderness, forgotten towns filled with strange religious cults, and even more dangerous locales. So we still have plenty of problems, but as I’m learning, there aren’t many problems that can survive a bullet to the head.

Having won the king’s favor, Evan sets his sights on rebuilding the city of Hatra to its former glory. Until mummified harpies begin to attack them. Suspicious that the villainous Green Glass Sect is behind these latest assaults, Evan starts looking for answers, making allies, and consolidating his power. Luckily, he’s a kick ass dragon lord now. And dragons have no problem crushing their enemies.

Ben and Mira have set off on their raft to travel to the nearest island. There, they encounter a race of beautiful, long-legged deer women, and Ben meets the woman his daughter Marella foresaw in a vision. But this isn’t just a fun vacation. The voyaging duo will be put to the test against aquatic sea monsters, rabid bunnies, vicious wargs, and Ben’s mortal enemy: The orcs.

Technically, there’s only one girl on this island that I’ve been told to stay away from. One. And she just showed up on my doorstep looking like a hooker at a ho parade. Why, you ask? Well, according to her, I’m the only one on Paradise Isle that can help her. The only. Fucking. One. Go figure. So what am I supposed to do? Turn her away and look like an asshole? This whole “being a good person thing” isn’t as easy as it’s cracked up to be. Bear with me, will you? I’m still learning the ropes.

Evan and his party continue on to the next stop on their campaign, but they quickly discover things are not right in the underground city of Colaruma. The king’s appointed Sentinels are missing, there is evidence the Green Glass Sect is once again up to no good, and the city’s Council of Magistrates is more than a little suspicious. Evan decides to go undercover to get to the bottom of all these mysteries, but a little dragon diplomacy may be in order.

A month ago, I was a lowly alchemist who was a glorified handyman for the magic academy. Then, I learned I had the contraband ability to capture the souls of magical beings inside gems and use them to cast magic of my own. Now, I’m the big man on campus. I’m rubbing shoulders with the elite of our kingdom, and I’m trying to topple a crime syndicate that’s working with our worst enemies.

As the King wages his never-ending war against the demons infiltrating The Breach, the nobles have grown weary, and some don’t believe the threat is real. So, Evan must travel across Rahma to win back the lords’ loyalty to the king. And he’s more motivated than ever now, because he will soon become a father. But Evan quickly realizes the kingdom’s unrest is greater than he realized. Thankfully, he’s a Dragon Lord. And dragons always get what they want.

With Evan and Alyona’s campaign around Rahma drawing near, Evan is under a time crunch to make safe the city. First, he must clear out any beasts and enemies that lurk in the tunnels beneath Hatra. Then he needs to complete the reconstruction of the Lunar Palace. And finally, he’s got to deal with the assassins that have somehow infiltrated his home. Just another day for a Dragon Lord.

Evan’s campaign across Rahma continues, and this time, they encounter a city of intelligent, if proud, shape-shifting centaurs. Evan is fascinated by the horse-people, but he is more enthralled with their gorgeous queen. To win her over, Evan and his party work to clear the nearby forest of monsters, traps, and traitorous Green Glass Sect members. If the queen is pleased, Evan will add her into his harem of mates. And maybe even give her an heir.

Trace Taylor was at a shooting range when the world was kidnapped by the alien species called the ‘Esvol’ to begin humanity's integration with the System. Each individual person is given a femtochip implant and a class to fend for themselves before being sent back to Earth. Once Trace returns, she finds that the planet too is left scarred by this encounter. Faced with monsters, dungeons, an annoying AI, and a lot of insane idiots, how will Trace come to survive this newly-changed planet?

Ever since I discovered that I can kill magical creatures, trap their souls in precious gems, and use them to cast spells of my own, I haven’t had a moment’s rest. I have to balance my academics with learning how to use my powers and capture more souls in more gems to grow my spell collection. All the while avoiding angry aristocrats, nosy professors, criminal mobsters, and evil dwarves bent on destroying the civilized kingdoms. Luckily, I have some handy magic, a super awesome foxgirl and the hottest elven girl in school by my side, so nothing can stop me.

On January 1st, 2020, the comet hit, and a good chunk of the people on Earth died or turned into mutants. But some people gained powerful magical abilities. You would think that the fall of humankind would usher in a time of peace and happiness for the survivors, but since powerful people tend to be assholes, life got worse, and these mages enslaved those who couldn’t protect themselves. I have magic too, but not just any magic. I can summon guns, and nothing kills asshole mages better than a bullet through the brain.

Ben and his tribe of beautiful monster-girls have a new mission: Sail to the island of dragons, rebind them to Ben’s women, and use the fire-breathing beasts to wipe the orcs off the map. But a storm knocks them off course, and they end up on another mysterious island. An island inhabited by winged, butterfly-women who are faced with a deadly and unknown enemy.

We have a mission: to save the Universal Magic. To do so, I need to locate three other Creation Mages. There’s nowhere to find them except in the Infernal Realms, which means I’m going to have to meet with the very incarnation of evil: the devil. A journey into hell to meet with The Great Deceiver himself. How could it possibly go wrong?

Creation Mages to wine and dine. Immortals to defeat. A multiverse to save.
