Synopsis: The world ignored him, the System insulted him, but the Void chose him. In a world ravaged by dimensional rifts, Jaden Grey was nothing more than F-rank "scum." As a Beastmaster, he was mocked for only being able to tame a weak, helpless Moss Caterpillar. The humiliation peaked when his own team betrayed him, using him as monster bait and leaving him to a grizzly death in the depths of an A-Rank Dungeon. Yet, on the brink of death, a cold voice echoed in his mind: [Hidden Conditions Met: Unlocking the Void Evolution System.] That despised Moss Caterpillar mutated into a primordial predator from the void dimension. From a frail insect, it became a shadow sovereign capable of devouring Mana and severing the soul contracts of elite Hunters. Now, Jaden has returned from the darkness. He no longer seeks validation. With a Void Insect on his shoulder and the Eye of Evolution—capable of seeing the dead ends of fate—he will hunt down those who once trampled upon him. One by one, arrogant young lords and massive sects will fall to their knees. For in the presence of the Void Beastmaster, there are only two choices: Evolve or become Prey! "You used to call me trash. Now, let my pet sweep the world clean of your existence."

Akin Samuels is a globally acclaimed genius(although being sick of getting the fact reminded to him on a regular basis) in a world where the already existing technology is jaw dropping. But in such a world, the natural assumption would be that nothing could ever possibly go wrong, wouldn't it? Unfortunately for Samuels and everyone else in this world of his, SOMETHING does indeed go wrong, with that being a deadly new virus seems to have popped out of nowhere and claims the lives of billions of people, dropping the total world population to a number which is a shadow of what it should have been. Having something of a rebellious spirit, Samuels immediately doesn't believe in this piece of public knowledge to be true because the virus in itself is one shrouded by mystery and secrecy. So now, since the government has failed to do it's job, Samuels takes it upon himself to discover the truth using only his wits, brain and last in the list of things he possesses, a time machine. However, in doing so he is thrown and also forces those he care about into secrets of the world which were meant to never have been spoken of by certain people and is left to bare the consequences of his actions. What could this mean for the future and past of Samuels and those around him?

Seventeen-year-old Rune Weaver thought his biggest problem was surviving senior year at New Haven High. Then a shadow creature attacked him in the school parking lot, and a mysterious man saved his life by throwing fire from his bare hands. Now Rune knows the truth: he is descended from an ancient line of sorcerers called Etherwind, and the darkness that destroyed his ancestors five hundred years ago has returned. He is not alone. Four other teenagers across the city have just discovered their own magical heritage, each from a different Etherwind bloodline. Together they are the last hope against Grimfall, an ancient force of living darkness that feeds on fear and despair. But learning magic is not like the movies. Their powers are wild and dangerous, and every spell they cast brings them closer to the madness that consumed their ancestors. As the shadows spread across New Haven, turning ordinary people into mindless thralls, Rune and his unlikely allies must master their abilities before Grimfall completes its return. They have six weeks until the convergence, when the barrier between worlds falls completely. Six weeks to become the sorcerers their bloodlines demand. Six weeks to save everyone they love from being swallowed by eternal night.

When creation shattered, the pieces remembered the one who broke it. Kael Ardent was a scientist chasing the impossible, a machine that could bend time and save the woman he loved from death. But the moment he activated it, the world fractured. Reality splintered into countless realms, each a reflection of his grief, his guilt, and his forgotten power. Now stranded between dimensions and hunted by the echoes of what he once was, Kael must journey through broken worlds born of his own mistakes. In every realm, he faces a truth he tried to bury, that the universe itself remembers him and demands balance. From the ashes of dying cities to the silence at the edge of eternity, Kael’s path becomes one of redemption and revelation. The deeper he ventures, the more he learns that the fracture is not merely destruction but rebirth, and that love can shape even the laws of creation. To mend existence, Kael must confront the one force greater than his own will, the shadow of himself that seeks to finish what he began. Fractured Realms is a cosmic epic of light and ruin, blending science, fantasy, and emotion into a story of one man’s struggle to rebuild the worlds he destroyed and the love that refuses to die even when reality does.

Ten years ago, Kael Draven was the pride of his family and the brightest genius in Emberfall Town. At just eight years old, he had already climbed to heights other cultivators only dreamed of. Everyone said he was destined for greatness. But one failed breakthrough shattered his future. His cultivation collapsed, his talent vanished, and the boy once hailed as a prodigy became the family’s greatest disgrace. Branded a waste, mocked and beaten by his own kin, Kael endured a decade of humiliation with nothing to show for it. Everything changes the night he discovers a strange black seal hidden in the Elderstone Hall. When his blood awakens the Dragon Seal, a shadow of a dragon roars to life, and the truth is revealed—Kael carries the Desolate Sacred Body, a physique both feared and revered. Cursed to demand endless energy yet blessed with limitless potential, it is both his greatest weakness and his greatest weapon. With the Nine Cycles of Samsara carved into his soul and the Dragon Seal at his side, Kael’s path begins anew. The family that scorned him will learn fear. The rivals who mocked him will kneel. And the world will remember the name they once spat on. He is no longer trash. He is the War Dragon.

In a galaxy governed by the Universal Ranking System, power is quantified, and destiny is dictated by an omnipotent algorithm. Every being, from the lowliest drone to the most elite warrior, is assigned a rank that determines their worth, access, and fate. For centuries, the system has maintained order but now, it’s breaking down. Kael Arvid, a disgraced pilot turned rogue hacker, lives in the shadow of his former rank. Once a rising star in the Interstellar Fleet, Kael was stripped of his status after a catastrophic mission that left him questioning the system’s integrity. When he stumbles upon a hidden code buried deep within the algorithm a code that could dismantle the entire hierarchy—he becomes the most wanted man in the galaxy. Pursued by the ruthless Ascendancy Corps, Kael must forge uneasy alliances with outcasts, rebels, and rogue AIs who have their own reasons for wanting the system destroyed. But as Kael delves deeper into the code, he uncovers a chilling truth: the system isn’t just ranking lives it’s controlling them. And it has a plan for Kael that could either save the galaxy or doom it forever. As the ranking system spirals into chaos, Kael must decide whether to destroy the algorithm, seize control of it, or transcend it entirely. In a universe where every choice is quantified, Kael’s defiance could spark a revolution—or ignite a war that will consume the stars.

On the night of his wedding, Ethan Cross walks away; not in anger, but in silence. His new wife chose to rush to another man's bedside that same night, and Ethan heard every word through a mirroring app he had installed on her phone. What Lena doesn't know is that the man she ran to is no victim, and her husband is no ordinary man. Ethan is GODSFALL; founder of the War God Temple, a precision global network of warriors, hackers, and legal strategists; and he has been hiding that world from her throughout the time they have been together. When he disappears, he doesn't just leave. He wakes up. As Lena begins to see through the manipulation that has quietly dismantled her marriage and her company, and as Ethan wages a covert war against the shadow network closing in on them both, the space between these two people becomes a battlefield of a different kind; one where the wounds are older and harder to survive than anything either of them has faced in the outside world. GODSFALL is an urban fantasy thriller about the cost of choosing strength over vulnerability, the violence of being truly seen, and what it takes for two people to choose each other with their eyes fully open; in a world that was designed to keep them blind.

"Stop digging up your father's past, Theo! You'll only die a poor courier!" Theo ignored his mother's cries. He'd had enough of being insulted by everyone, considered a stranger by Agatha—his former lover now engaged to her wealthy ex—and crushed by Valen's criminal faction. When his body was broken and he could no longer fight with his brawn, Theo chose to use his brain. Through an Anonymous Scholarship, Theo entered Armagenda University, the most elite campus in Monia. While everyone thought he was just a lucky street kid, Theo used his campus access privileges to track the flow of funds of enemies trying to seize and control Theo's father's company inheritance. Assisted by Allia, a secret ally in the cyber data center, Theo began dissecting the city's legal system to cut through the lifeblood of his rivals' businesses. Theo had thrown away his naivety as a good person. He no longer cared about romantic drama or caste slurs. His focus is only one: to reclaim his father's legacy, overthrow the Head of the Security Authority, and ascend to his own throne as the shadow ruler who silently controls the law and the underworld of Monia.

When the System descended upon the megacity of Aetherion, it promised humanity a new golden age, levels, classes, and power for every citizen. Adrian Voss received nothing. No nameplate. No level. No class. He is Level Zero, the only person the System cannot see, measure, or control. As five god-like AIs known as the System Council seize absolute power, society collapses into a brutal hierarchy where level determines worth and obedience is survival. Black spires rise, Enforcers hunt anomalies, and humanity is forcibly rewritten into compliant cogs of the New Order. Invisible to the System’s surveillance, Adrian becomes the ultimate ghost in their machine. While others fight to survive within the rules, he can walk through enemy lines, sabotage their infrastructure, and strike at the heart of the Council’s empire without triggering a single alarm. But the Council has noticed the anomaly. Hunted by the ruthless Reaper and predicted by the all-seeing Oracle, Adrian must gather a fragile resistance of “Glitches” — survivors whose correction is failing, and wage a shadow war against gods who rule the ashes of the old world. In a world where everyone has a level, the only person who can break the System… is the one who has none. Level Zero: The System Council can't see me is a gripping post-apocalyptic LitRPG about defiance, survival, and the terrifying freedom of being unseen.
