Is This Really A Game?!

Ninety-one days. That's all the time Drew has before the nukes fall. He died in an alley. Knife in his back. His ex-wife and her rich boyfriend watching from an armored car, toasting his death like it was a celebration. Then he woke up. Back in time. Three months before the bombs. The world still thinks he's a loser. His ex-wife thinks she's poisoned him slow enough to get away with it. Her brother thinks he can threaten him out of his own house. The rich CEO thinks he can steal his wife and his home without consequence. They have no idea. Drew lived five years in the ashes. Five years eating rat meat, killing men who wanted his water, stitching his own wounds in the dark. He saw how the world ended. He saw who survived—and who didn't. Now he's going back. He knows what's coming. He knows where to hide. He knows who to trust. He's going to turn his basement into a fortress. He's going to stockpile enough food, guns, and medicine to outlast the nuclear winter. He's going to watch the world burn—and laugh. And the first thing he's going to do? Make sure the people who killed him the first time suffer worse than he did.

Together, they navigate a world where the transformed evolve rapidly, hunting in coordinated packs and learning with every kill.

When Kane discovers Asher’s blood can cure early infections, Asher becomes the most wanted person alive. Now hunted by monsters, soldiers, and terrified settlements, Asher and his allies journey toward the rumored Eclipse Division Base for answers. There they uncover the truth: the eclipse wasn’t natural, and the evolved alphas have plans for Asher’s hybrid form. In the final battle for humanity’s survival, Asher must choose between the human he was… and the monster he’s becoming.

That was until his most trusted commanders orchestrated a universe-wide coup, shattering his soul and casting his legacy into the cosmic Abyss. But death was not the end. A millennium later, the Sovereign awakens in the frail, battered body of Zael—a despised and bullied academy cadet on a backwater junk-planet.

He is about to remind them why he was feared.

I left everything behind, when my father had wanted me to become the head of the dynasty. Every man would have wanted such power given to him to control the world. But, I wanted something different, something peaceful. Away from all noise, distractions and the place where I called home. I didn't just leave, I left with the woman after my heart. I really loved her and would marry her. None of this wealth, power, control matters to me, the reason I kept my family profile hidden from her. But, what happens when there was a zombie apocalypse and I had returned home, to take her with me to another city, but then…I caught her cheating, not with anyone else, if the case should be, but with my boss? That's the height of it. Even when I tried to confront her, she was not remorseful over her shameful actions, and my boss? He simply doesn't care about me, he threatened to fire me if I dared him. They mocked, ridiculed me and even left me with a zombie to kill me off. But, they don't know who I am!

“I’m major Kaelen, I live in this forest before you, this is my kingdom, and I will take you all down one after the other. Look closely at the ground beneath your boots, soldiers. That soil is already hungry. You arrived here thinking you were an army. You are just meat walking into a larder. You do not command this space; the shadows command you, and I am the hand that guides them. I will not fight your formations. I will bleed you drop by drop. Your patrols will disappear without a whisper. Your sentries will wake up finding the razor edge of my knife where their breath used to be. Go ahead, try to advance. You will find that retreat is impossible, surrender is irrelevant, and the only mercy you will receive is the speed of my strike. You will die lost, you will die afraid, and you will die remembering the sound of my name echoing through the impenetrable darkness. This is not a war you are fighting. This is an execution you insisted upon.”

In the city of New Avalon, where a fascia of riches hides dishonesty and backstabbing, a rebellious group of thieves sets their sights on the impenetrable vault of wealthy Victor Crane. It's said to hold a vast treasure of valuable gems. The team is headed by Jax "The Ghost" Malone, a likeable former criminal with a talent for pulling off unbelievable robberies. His crew consists of: Lena Voss, a technological whiz; Marcus "Bear" Tate, a powerful strongman; and Evie Quinn, a deceptive swindler. They come up with a bold scheme: to put a tiny camera on Crane's jacket to discover the vault's secrets, copy his fingerprint, and imitate the voice of his business partner, Sophia Laurent. As they get closer to Crane, visiting places like his expensive dry cleaners and personal gym, the team learns that the vault has a two-part security system. It needs Crane's fingerprint and Sophia's voice at the same time. But things aren't as straightforward as they seem. Lena's developing feelings for Jax begin to distract her, while Evie's impulsive flirting and Marcus's troubled history cause problems within the group. Then there's Dorian Black, a competing thief whose frustrating success and arrogant attitude make him a despised but dangerous enemy. As the robbery progresses, acts of disloyalty, passionate moments, and thrilling pursuits push the team to their limits. With time running out and Crane's security getting tighter, the crew must navigate relationships, devotion, and deceit to complete the heist—or risk losing everything in the resulting turmoil.

When fragments of an alien megastructure—codenamed The Echelon—begin crashing to Earth, each piece alters reality in unpredictable ways. Governments and black-ops divisions race to control the debris, desperate to weaponize their power. Adrian Cross, an ex-special forces soldier branded a traitor after a botched mission, is caught in the middle of one such recovery. When an explosion sends a shard of Echelon debris into his body, it bonds with his nervous system, creating a Nanocore System—an evolving AI interface that can rewrite biology and physics itself. Adrian escapes from the government lab that tries to dissect him and soon discovers the truth: other debris fragments have fused with people around the world, turning them into Augments—humans twisted by alien technology. Hunted by every faction, Adrian becomes a fugitive, struggling to master his new powers while uncovering the purpose of the debris. He crosses paths with Dr. Lyra Quinn, a scientist who believes the fragments form a living network—a consciousness scattered across the planet. Together they uncover a chilling reality: the debris isn’t just alien—it’s sentient. Each piece Adrian absorbs brings him closer to understanding the alien mind inside him… but also further from his humanity. As the Nanocore evolves, Adrian learns of Project Echelon, a secret human initiative to reassemble the alien structure as a planetary superweapon. But the real threat lies beyond Earth—the Architect, the original intelligence that created Echelon, is coming to reclaim its fragments. When the world descends into chaos—armies battling over debris zones, cities collapsing under spatial rifts—Adrian realizes he may be humanity’s last hope. He must either fuse all fragments and rebuild the Echelon to fight the Architect, or destroy it completely…
