Dungeon: a place full of monsters, traps, treasure, and death. Those are the Great Dungeons, with unplumbed depths below the roots of the mountains. That's not for me. Dungeon: a place of rape, torture, and death, to control and corral enemies and slaves. These are the Red Cores, from which the mage-kings draw their power. That's also not for me. I don't like monsters. I don't want adventurers. I want to stay well away from enemies and slaves. Fortunately, there are alternatives....

Jack has reached the B-Grade, cementing himself as a true elite of the universe. However, he’s still far from the peak, and time is short. The Immortals are moving. The Old Gods stir. To progress faster than ever before, Jack must infiltrate the Space Monster World and deceive Archons to participate in their most sacred trials. Even if he succeeds, victory remains distant. The only way to survive the coming storm is to reach the absolute peak of cultivation. An impossible proposition. But, if anyone can do it… It’s Jack Rust.

Callum had seen things all his life. There are monsters and beasts living among people, but he learned very early not to admit such things, not if he didn’t want people to think him crazy. It turns out that the supernatural is real, but at 30, Callum has no desire to be part of that secret. Not that he has a choice when it turns out he is a mage, albeit one that hasn’t cast any spells in all his life. There are requirements, duties, and education that the powers that be insist he be subject to. To hell with that.

Jack Rust was a disillusioned biologist with a PhD—almost. When an extraterrestrial AI calling itself the System invaded Earth and thrusts it into a world of aliens and violence, the least Jack hoped for was gaining access to magic.

After escaping from the Guild of Arcane Regulation and the Bureau of Secret Enforcement, Callum has lost his greatest protection: his obscurity. Now the powers that be know who he is, and hiding is harder than ever. Nor is hiding a plan, just a reaction. Now Callum is forced to decide how he wants to approach the supernatural world, and how he’s going to keep himself secure when the apparatus of government is arrayed against him.

With Tarnil free, Blue and his allies consolidate and recover from the mage-king's depredations. As he establishes himself firmly at home, he starts reaching out to the world that he is now a part of. There is a lot of work to be done to prevent further war, or worse.

Join Jack the Brawler as he pummels everything that gets in his way on his road to mastery and power. It's perfect for fans of Primal Hunter, Defiance of the Fall, and lovers of all things Progression Fantasy and LitRPG.

The portal to the Night Lands is closed, and vampires are barred from Earth, but at a high cost. Not only does Callum have to deal with the fallout of the vampire race’s final spasms, but the political consequences of demonstrating his ability and willingness to attack portal worlds directly. The forces that were moving to control a weakened GAR have come out into the open, and Callum has to deal with stakes much higher than his personal freedom.

Jack has liberated his planet and saved his people. However, stronger forces command the universe. The Hand of God is preparing for the Second Crusade, while the Black Hole Church wants to revive Enas, the leader of the Old Gods. To pursue the peak of cultivation, Jack and Brock join the Church and train with its elites. They’re underleveled and underpowered—standing out will be an uphill struggle. Even if they succeed, new arenas unfold. A mysterious dimension wrapped in shadows, where the greatest monsters are the friends we made along the way.

The Guild of Arcane Regulation has fractured, and new forces move on the board. Callum cannot quite declare victory, for even a weakened GAR still forces him to hide from the world at large, yet he is no longer prepared to run. Instead, he builds his own strengths to stand against those who wish to do him harm.

Jack is on the run from a B-grade galactic empire. On top of that, he needs to achieve extreme strength within a year if he wants to save Earth. Half-measures aren't enough; accompanied by Brock the brave brorilla, Jack must rely on his talent and wits to cross hostile, unknown space territories and reach Trial Planet—the galaxy's greatest training grounds. Nine planetary rings to conquer. Giants, barbarians, space monsters, puzzles, ancient trials, divine mysteries, and, worst of all...cultivators. When everything seems lost, the only way out is forward.

Eight months remain until Earths grace period is over, and Jack is not nearly strong enough to defend it. Desperate times call for desperate measures. To defeat the planetary overseer within a year, he has to kill his way to the top. Good thing the Animal Kingdom has a planet full of talented immortals. Alone and deep in enemy territory, Jack must wage war while avoiding the Kingdoms Elders and hidden masters. The dangers are endless. Every day is a gamble. Every step, against the odds.

It’s a local legend. No one is sure if this “Camp Slaughter” place is real or not. But a group of college kids renting out a cabin deep in the woods of Pennsylvania will soon realize the truth. They’ll realize the danger, too. Or rather, the cannibal out in the woods will bring the danger to them...

Ned’s exhausted from his divorce, single parenting, and graduate school, so when his boss comes up with a plan to 'improve' work-life balance, Ned wants no part of it. But Dr. Charles Henry Abbot, PhD has other ideas. Once Ned’s least favorite professor and now his infuriating colleague, Ned needs Abbot’s help editing his dissertation. With their newly limited work schedules, Abbot suggests the worst idea Ned’s ever heard: pretend to date. Convince their co-workers–and their boss–that they’re in a relationship and nailing this whole personal life thing...and each other.

In the years since the Annexation War, Cato has quietly spread throughout the System, watching, waiting, and building his forces. When the Sydean Lineage returns, he finally has a line to the Core, and once he can deal with the System Core, he can bring down the System for good. Of course, it isn’t so simple. The System-gods are aware of him now, powerful and ancient forces waiting to pounce on any mistake — and perfectly willing to murder millions of innocents for even a perceived injury against him.

Callum is at war with the Guild of Arcane Regulation, the organization that governs mages on Earth. He’s spent most of his time lying low and hiding out, trying to understand what he can do and how he can remain free from their meddling. What he’s learned is that he can’t.

Blue and his Companions have solidified their positions, and are ready to head out into the world. They have new allies, new infrastructure, new information, and most importantly, goals. House Anell is a thorn. The mage-kings are a poison. Depletion is an existential threat. It's time to deal with all of it. The conclusion of Blue Core.

Somewhere faraway, the universe is in peril. But on Earth, Alan is minding his own business after a boring double-shift at the pawn shop… until he’s assaulted by a screaming archer who turns out to be a good shot. Alan awakes in Strangey Town, a zany nightmarish jungle of ideas run by a horrid deity. Things get even stranger when a clairvoyant frog confirms Alan has an affinity for magic, and that his powers are far from ordinary. He can convene with gods, bargain for souls, and tap into every known magic the universe has to offer. It's unheard of!

Spreading into the wider System, Cato is confronted with the full scope of his crusade. Tens of thousands of worlds or more, beings capable of destroying planets, and even stricter limitations on technology if he doesn’t want to show is hand early.

When the System came to Earth, technology failed, monsters appeared, and billions died as humans were inducted into the game-like physics the System enforced. Unfortunately for the System, not all humans were on Earth. Some scattered postbiological individuals decided to push it back, and embarked on a decade-long crusade to eliminate the System from Earth.
