Who in their right mind tells both his lawyer and the judge presiding over his murder trial, “F--k you!” while still in the courtroom? No one, right? Yeah, you’d be wrong about that. I did. You’d say the same thing if you were just found guilty of a murder you didn’t commit, though. Call me crazy for going off like that in court, but trust me, you don’t know crazy until you see what happened next.

Fourteen outstanding authors. Fourteen worlds that never were. Throughout the human experience, historians have wondered, “What if?” What if Japan had been on the side of the U.S. in World War II? What if things had been just a little different in the Falklands? What if Russia had started World War Three?

Once, Orion and I were lovers. Then, the gorgeous demon king broke my heart. He kicked me out of the City of Thorns, exiling me to the mortal world. Now, I have plans to get back at him—and save the world while I'm at it. Orion wants revenge on all the mortals. If I steal his crown, I can stop the bloodshed. All I have to do is beat him in a series of trials, proving that the gods chose me as queen.

Breaker broke out of a supervillain space prison, starting his journey to Elder of the Citadel. He formed his team, starting with Charm and Twitch, watching as his brother rose up with his own team. He defeated supervillains galore, all while fighting an enemy from another dimension.

Every high school has its rock star. Maybe it's the quarterback, head cheerleader, or the valedictorian - the one student who outshines the rest. The one everyone knows will be successful in the years to come. For Nolan that was a lifetime ago, before he lost his sight, before he even knew what a Leech was. Now, all Nolan wants is to see Caleo survive to fulfill his destiny.

Zombies were bad enough, but now we're being invaded from all sides. Up to our necks in blood, body parts, and unanswerable questions….As soon as the realization hit me, I lost my cool. I curled into the fetal position in a pile of blood, offal, and body parts, and froze there. What in the Hell was I becoming that killing was entertaining and satisfying? I don't know how long I was on my side in the remains of my opponents, but the mess was coagulating and getting cold…to say nothing of the smell of sliced-open bowels.

I am not going to complain to you about my life. We’ve got zombies. They are not the brainless, rotting creatures we’d been led to expect. Unfortunately for us, they’re just as smart as they were before they died, very fast, much stronger than you or me, and possess no internal editor at all. Claws. Did I mention claws? I kill them for a living, but it’s as much a vocation as a freelance career choice. It helps me, helps my neighborhood, and the people I consider to be my family of choice. What’s more?

The intergalactic bounty hunter and his team of hot and deadly ladies are going to the craziest planet in the Oram system. Their mission is to hunt down a rogue super, to infiltrate a secret society, and do whatever dirty deeds must be done for victory.

My team of supers have proven themselves, taken down enemies greater than I could have ever imagined, and formed powerful allies. But now it's time to meet back up with old friends and family, to take the battle to new levels. And when that involves an invasion of Earth, my team of super-hot ladies and I are more than happy to do the job.

Why would I put my life on the line over and over when I have everything I could possibly want? Hell, my superpowers have reached levels previously incomprehensible to me. My brother and parents are in my life, and the position of Elder at the Citadel is in my grasp. I have Charm with her foxy ways, Twitch with her ability to reprogram even our powers, the terrifying beauty that is Andromida, my curvy tempest Gale, Aegriss with her hacker abilities, and of course there's Shimmer who can unlock a whole new world of possibilities with her illusions - both in battle and in the sheets.

Breaker is an Elder of the Citadel. A top-level superhero at a point in his life where settling down makes sense. He and his team of super-hot super ladies are the only ones who can possibly make it through to the other side. It's up to them to find the last Per-Neters and put an end to the enemy's push to take over the universe. What they find on the other side, they never could have expected. And the path that it puts them on is certain to answer more questions than they knew they had to begin with.

Leveling up and maximizing my skill trees, enemies cower, and my ladies want me even in the heat of battle. Good thing getting down with them unlocks my powers in ways previously incomprehensible, or we might never have stood a chance. We have a job to do, and considering that we're going after the pyramids where the villains have been stealing superpowers and storing them, we're going to need our wits about us.

Death doesn't come easily for Muerta, but we’re determined to stop her - even if we have to tear down the Abaddon Asylum and the whole damn planet in the process. But, it turns out, she's not alone. As we pursue her across the planet, we learn she's here for someone...and that her escape is all part of a much bigger plan. Tensions are high among the team. Luckily for us, making new friends and having a blast killing supervillains helps take the edge off - as does finding new ways to explore my powers. Enjoy!
