A progression fantasy with LitRPG elements. Duncan grew up in an isolated valley, determined to become a hero of legend. Chosen by the Gods, he is thrust into a world he knows little about and must grow stronger to face powerful invaders from other worlds.
When Marine Corps pilot Jacob Merely crashes during a routine mission off the coast of Cyprus, he was sure it was game over.
After surviving the crash and pulling himself onto the sandy shores of a long-abandoned island, however, Jacob unwittingly stumbles headfirst into the ancient ruins of a dead city. Unfortunately, he also stumbles into an age-old battle between good and evil—and he is now its newest recruit.
The island once belonged to the Amazons, daughters of Ares, the God of War, and stood as the final bastion between the human world and the monstrosities of the Great Below. But Jacob’s arrival has awakened the old gods and disturbed the seal holding the ravaging darkness at bay.
Now, with the help of a sacred gem containing Ares’ power, Jacob must recreate the Amazonian defenders of humanity and fortify the island stronghold. And if he fails, Hades will unleash his army of the damned and the world of men will fall, giving rise to an age of walking nightmares.

Pay to play. Since the beginning of online gaming this has always been the norm; you paid the company and they let you play their game. So it's no surprise that Alex Stanton was living every gamer's dream. It was the opposite for him. He was getting payed to play.
The latest generation of virtual reality gaming, in both appearance and hardware, was being beta tested by the largest retailer of online gaming, AltCon. Never before seen graphical detail, joined with a first-time, fully functional, whole body immersion system was likely to put AltCon entirely out of reach of their competitors. But before they could go live, they wanted Beta testers. Serious Beta testers. So serious, AltCon was willing to pay a salary to each tester, ensuring their lives revolved around the Beta, and the Beta only.
Beta testers join for one reason, to experience new content never seen by another player. Alex, along with his group mates Dan, Jason, and Wayne will experience every nuance the game has to offer, and all before the rest of the world. The entire scenario is unreal; from the tests to be selected as a Beta candidate, to the six month wait to qualify, to the almost life-like quality of the game itself. The company pulled out all the stops. If there was a heaven for gamers, it would look exactly like this game: Resurgence.
But odd things start happening from the outset. Things Alex can't explain. But like every hard-core gamer, Alex has no problem ignoring the little things to focus on the grander design; winning the game. Whether that be discovering new content, finishing epic quests, or finding the rarest of items.
In time, even the littlest of things can pile up, and Alex is forced to ask himself, “What’s really going on in Resurgence?”

Transported into a ruined magical world, he found himself facing against terrible monsters - and other Awakened - in a deadly battle of survival. What's worse, the shadow powers he received happened to possess a small, but potentially fatal side effect...
I've managed to survive my first week in Euphoria Online. But I couldn't have done it without my new friends. Lotharia. Falkon. The Green Liver goblins.
But now Lotharia's gone missing. Swallowed by that nightmare keep. Lost to the darkness.
Everyone's telling me that going after her is madness. That I don't have a chance in hell.
But I'm not the kind of guy to turn my back on my friends.
With Unity formed, Gunnar feels like he has a family like he's never had before. All that's left is to grow in power, continue building in Edgewood, and work on earning Adeelee's affection. Nothing can tear him away from his friends and newly founded guild.
Or can it?
Gunnar still has a lot to learn about his massive world.
There are eyes and ears everywhere. Deception can come when you least expect it, and even in Eden's Gate, sometimes you can lose control of your own fate.
A world destroyed. An axe to grind. And a path to infinite power. Welcome to my reality.
So it turns out overthrowing a 14000-year-old cultivation empire is going to take longer than I expected, but I’ve made a great start.
I’ve broken through to the Core Realm of my hidden Berserker art, established a new Terran Sect and even discovered a tribe of lost Terrans out in the wild.
There’s a whole lot more at stake and even more people to save, but that’s all the more reason to free the Earth from the empire’s control.
Not everyone is thrilled about my progression, however. From pissed-off sect leaders to the members of the ruling clan, everyone wants a piece of the young upstart rocking the boat.
And that’s just fine with me.
It means I’ll need to grow even stronger to protect my people and achieve my goals. But forces greater than even the empire are at play—dark forces from beyond the stars.
And it’s going to be up to me to stop them.
Will I be strong enough? I don’t know and frankly I don’t care, because when you follow the Path of the Berserker…backing down is no longer an option.
Path of the Berserker Book 2 is a progression fantasy novel that contains immortal cultivators, an oppressive intergalactic dynasty, rage-inducing imperial bureaucracy, magical spirit beasts, fantastical martial arts and one pissed-off MC who’s sick of it all. Fans of western-style cultivation fantasy, post-apocalypse and Xianxia will enjoy.
