The Runic Artist

Where there is a Rune, there is a way! Nate is a kid from Sydney, Australia who spends his free time indulging in his one true love - art. Graffiti specifically. That is until his 'hobby' catapults him into a new world filled with danger and magic. Finding himself alone in a forest that is clearly not on Earth, he must learn to navigate this new world and more importantly, the System that governs it. Armed with nothing but his trusty penknife and a Legendary Class, Nate will fend for his life. He'll conquer dungeons, discover runes and be drawn into battles against enemies he didn't even know he had, all while making new friends along the way. Torn between returning to his old life and the friends he left behind, or making a new home in this world filled with magic, he will have to decide where his heart truly lies. No matter what he chooses he'll leave his mark - and hopefully - a little art.

Reader Mage-Stubbed

Read on KU: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HCW5F55J He read the novel no one else would, and now had a System to show for it. Merlin Tyrrell’s favorite web novel, Singularity Mage, came to an end, and with it his dream of getting into one of the most prestigious Mage Academies on Earth. Evaluated as Deficient—a Mage who could cast no spells—Merlin could only watch as his wish to be able to protect those he loved from the dangers Dungeons and Towers posed was snatched away from his finger tips. That was, until the author of Singularity Mage sent him a gift for being his sole reader until the end: the System of the novel’s protagonist, and his greatest Skill: Reader Mage Now possessing the ability to analyze and deconstruct spells on the fly, maybe—just maybe—Merlin can finally achieve his goal and end up becoming the greatest Mage to ever exist.

Prince of All Creation

Codex is absolute. Each tome, a shard of the creator's will. A sacred archive that chronicles the fates of all who belong to a specific dynasty—those who have passed, and those yet to be born—each word penned by the creator's own hand. What does a prince do when, upon stepping into adulthood and unlocking the truth of his destiny, he discovers that his very existence is the harbinger of doom for the homeland he loves? One cannot escape fate. History has etched in blood the names of those who tried. Yet, in this once-mighty empire, now reduced to a hollow shell of its former glory, even a fated catastrophe can be transformed into an opportunity. After all, the codex may be absolute, but a man's word... is not.

The Ley Lines, the magical conduits that span the entire planet, awaken, transporting almost half of the world’s population to the Land of the Rifts—a post-apocalyptic world where dangers lurk around every corner, and various nations fight to reestablish themselves by battling each other or facing creatures that see mortals as nothing more than pawns.

Echo of the Shapers(Draft phase )

In the Astrum Imperium, power follows a single law: ascend or be crushed beneath those who do. Humanity rules the Solar System through the Paths of power-an ancient Ascension system that allows the Awakened to wield fragments of divine Authority. The Imperium recognizes eight ranks, from the first Spark to the legendary Divine. Those who rise become rulers, generals, and living weapons. Those who fail vanish inside the deadly trials known as Domain Echoes. Darien Halcrest is sixteen and born on the frozen moon of Callisto, far from the shining capitals of the Inner Worlds. The son of a disgraced noble family, his future depends on one thing: surviving the brutal Crucible Academy on Terra and mastering his Ice Affinity. If he succeeds, he can restore his family's honor. If he fails, he becomes another forgotten cadet swallowed by the Imperium's ruthless hierarchy. But the system humanity depends on is not as perfect as it seems. Deep inside an Imperial transport ship, an ancient artifact that has slept for ten thousand years begins to awaken. When it does, the fragile structure holding the Imperium together will start to fracture. And somewhere in the darkness between worlds, something unwritten is waiting. Darien Halcrest only wanted to climb the Path. Instead, he may become the one who breaks it.

The Silver Tongued Devil

Matas is a roofer, not a hero. When a highway wreck and a red curve in the sky drop him onto the side of a forgotten mountain, there's no prophecy waiting for him—only stone, hunger, and a System that records his every choice instead of explaining any of them . Samhal survives because a buried crystal Heart keeps the worst luck off its people, quietly paying out Probability Debt so roofs don't fall and dungeon doors don't explode. Now that Heart is humming off‑beat, debt is coming due—and every "near miss" the System forgives has to be paid in blood or stone, somewhere, by someone. Drafted as a wall scout, Matas earns his bunk the only way he knows how: reading bad load paths before they kill someone and letting a hostile System wire more omen into his bones every time the village needs an "active participant." To get anyone out before the Heart fails and the rust‑choir of ten thousand trapped souls wakes, Matas will have to become exactly what this world fears—an honor‑bound Omen‑Step engineer who decides which debts get paid, and whose names get written on the ledger.

BLOOD AND SHADOWS

His name is Damien Voss Callahan. Lord of the Nightfall Court — the most feared vampire clan in the immortal world. Cold. Calculating. Ruthless beyond measure. He commands armies with a glance and ends centuries-old feuds with a whisper. He has lived five hundred years without once feeling something as fragile as need. But the ancient prophecy carved into the walls of his castle speaks of a fated bond — a mortal woman who will either complete him or destroy him. He wants neither. Her name is Nora Delacroix. On paper, she is unremarkable. A freelance archivist with a secondhand coat, ink-stained fingers, and a talent for disappearing into crowds. She takes temp jobs to pay her bills, keeps no close friends, and prefers the company of old books to people. She smiles at strangers and never lets them see past it. But Nora has a secret identity — one she has guarded since the age of seventeen. A ghost name. A blade in the dark. What happens when the Lord of the Nightfall Court crosses paths with the one mortal the shadow world has been hunting for years? What will Damien do when the universe names a quiet, glasses-wearing archivist as his fated bond? And what will Nora do when her new assignment — cataloguing the private library of one Damien Voss Callahan — puts her directly inside the most dangerous court in existence?
