Can't win for losin'...As any gambler will tell you, luck runs hot and cold. For my many sins I've been forced to scrape a life out of poker games and side-jobs on the fringes of civil society. I thought I hit it big when I raked 50-grand off the table at a roadhouse in Texas. It is amazing what a win can cost you. Now, on the run from a drug cartel headed by an unstoppable juggernaut, pursued by a shape-shifting killer, and framed for attempted murder, I have to protect a girl with a bounty on her head.

I gave Eris the first taste of the terror to come, but in doing so, I had to agree to a peace treaty with the King. For the next twelve years, I cannot bring as much as a single unit on human lands… That doesn't mean I'm going to rest, oh no! I will use that time to further build my skills and my kingdom. I need to become even stronger so I can bring Eris one step closer to total annihilation.

Towers to crush and a Fallen God to slay - what a time to be a cultivator. After killing a fabled beast at the Sky Tower, my vessels and I must return to the Grandmaster of Pine Mountain. There, we'll be pushed to the limit so we can unlock our fullest potentials. With Tig's knowledge of Acalia's lore, and the guidance of the Grandmaster, our party will go on a quest of unparalleled difficulty. The Sky Tower must fall, and the shadow that lives in its upper chambers along with it. Such a task will require every ounce of courage we can muster as well as the assistance of old allies.

Home is where the heart is...at least that's what they say. Rob has made a home for himself in Olimero. Now, he finds himself entangled in events outside of the town he has made his own. A tournament, rival gangs, jealous gods, and an expanding family—it's a lot for one man to juggle, especially as his wives each have their own interests.

The Hell-Cursed have grown even stronger as they feed off the dead bodies left in the wake of humanity’s apocalyptic war for survival. Where there were once chaotic hordes now march undead armies with singular purpose. With this new threat looming on the horizon, leveling up may not be enough.

Count Vohra is dead, and with his city almost completely under my control, I can finally start building the foundations for the new underworld. But before I can begin, there’s a particularly nasty thorn in my side that I have to deal with first. The leader of the assassin guild, Crescent Thorn, wants to meet me, and I doubt talking is on his mind. And as if that wasn’t enough, Weilin has another contract for me, one I can’t refuse. He wants me to assassinate a high priest.

A battle, one they never wanted to fight, has staggered the Queen Elizabeth’s Own Foresters. Together, both Zuul and human must pick up the pieces and strike at the ones who betrayed both of them. But there is no time. They must stand together on the field of honor in a matter of weeks, and they must rebuild their units, garner the weapons they’ll need, and find a way to keep from killing each other. Their foe awaits, leading four times their numbers, and they know they have scant chance for victory.

Enemies in both the mortal realm and amongst the gods are coming out. Rob's family has come together, though, and will stand together against all challengers.

But their path is marred by treachery as nobles desperate to hold onto power scheme against them.

"Congratulations! You are the last survivor of the Hell Games. You have gained back your freedom." Huh? One moment I was running from demons and other competitors trying to do me in. The next, I was thrown back into yet another realm. Before me, some Princess started explaining that she had asked the gods for champions to help save her world in these dire times… and I was one of the chosen heroes. Yeah, right! I had been in Hell long enough to know I shouldn't trust my senses when it all seemed too good to be true.

Rico hungered for something more, eager for excitement. Fate led him to a goddess of opportunity. The divine teleports him to a planet filled with war, magic, and denizens of the deep.

Dan did everything they told him to do. Shadowy organizations implanted him with experimental nanobots. He went through months of grueling training to learn the skills he would need as Earth’s representative. He learned magic! He was still too late. Returning home to a changed planet, Dan found that the elves had already invaded, taking over most of the Amazon and fortifying it against modern incursion. If he doesn’t want to be just a footnote in the tale of the invasion and enslavement of mankind, it’s time for Dan to stop doing what they tell him...and do what needs to be done.

Assassins don't retire; they reincarnate. For nearly all of my life, I trained to become a master assassin, but at the height of my career, it all fell apart. I was betrayed, ambushed, and left bleeding out on the streets of London. Just before my death, though, I was offered a choice: Stay and let my life come to a swift and brutal end, or become the personal assassin of a god in another world. It wasn't a hard decision.

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.

Sides are being taken and the curtain pulled back. The true architects of the attacks on Kyle are coming to light. The war god is now in control of his power and growing stronger by the day.

Having uncovered a conspiracy within the Mage’s Guild to use the all-powerful Shodra magic items to conquer the world, Gabriel and the Shadow Foxes have no choice but to break into the Mage’s Tower and get them away from the forces of darkness. Easier said than done, especially when one of Gabriel's lovers is pregnant with his child, but nothing is impossible for Gabe as he continues to master his arcane abilities and become the God of Magic.

Nobody mentioned how hard being a champion on Loral would be. Rico still would've gone if they did though, because his new family is everything to him. The problem is, the damned Shrezen are coming and each wave brings harder armies to defeat. He wanted, no, he hoped for a brain dead legion of zombie type opponents.
