William D. Arand

In a world full of super powers, Felix had a pretty crappy one.

He has the ability to modify any item he owns. To upgrade anything.

Sounds great on paper. Almost like a video game.

Except that the amount of power it takes to actually change, modify, or upgrade anything worthwhile is beyond his abilities.

At least, that was until Felix leveraged a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to give himself a great deal of points.

Investing in Super Heroes and Super Villains and owning them. Using them, Felix built up an empire.

An organization by the name of Legion.

It grew to heights that could stand toe-to-toe with governments, even at a military level.

Surprisingly, not a whole lot changed despite becoming a mega-company CEO.

Politicians were still corrupt. Banks still held onto your money. And criminals still committed crime.

Governments still wanted to take everything from Felix and Legion.

In the end, Legion had to back down. Retreat back to a new homeworld. Losing important people in the process.

Kit Carrington and Lillian Lux sacrificed themselves to save him and were marooned on a hostile planet. Even as their home world fell into ruin, Felix fell back.

He resolved himself to wait for a chance to get back into the fight after tending to his wounded organization.

Now, the Overgod Runner has just appeared and offered him a second chance.

To rebuild Legion and crush everyone in his way. If he could do that, and take over the government of the country he’s about to be dropped into, he’ll get Kit and Lily back.

There was no way Felix would let go of this chance, nor could he even consider the possibility of failure.

It’s time to get Kit and Lily back.

Legion First.

Nosferatu Academy

★ 4.38

Virgil Knightley

Being abducted by my childhood crush and turned into a vampire wasn't my plan for the weekend, but here we are.

Now I've been taken to a demiplane between worlds where Dracula rules supreme, and all he wants is to... start a school for vampires?

It turns out the next generation of vampire is built differently, and I'm in on the ground floor of that new enterprise. What's more, I have a unique suite of abilities that helps me further stand out from the crowd. So much, in fact, that I've started attracting the attention of very interesting people. These monster hybrid vampires include my teacher, my childhood friend, an old bully of mine, and Dracula's socially awkward daughter. That isn't counting the two bloodthralls I've taken.

If I'm doing this, I'm doing it right. I'm going to work hard, study harder, and play the hardest, making the best out of my new life. Nosferatu Academy, here I come.

Content Warning: Nosferatu Academy contains themes that are common in dark fantasy, including scenes of violence, romance, and light horror elements. But this is NOT a horror novel. It is a humorous fantasy story with an ambitious, dominant male lead. Just be warned: as a vampire novel, there is a bit of blood here and there.

Radley’s Wardrobe for Horny Monsters

★ 4.54

Annabelle Hawthorne

When Mike Radley's magical home grew another floor, he thought he knew what to expect.

He didn't expect a kingdom of portal-chewing rats to be living between his walls.

He really didn't expect to discover that the wardrobe down the hall was a prison world for a murderous kitsune.

And he definitely didn't expect all of his enemies to converge on his house all at once, intent on his destruction.

Welcome to Radley's Wardrobe. Expect the Unexpected.

Right of Retribution

★ 4.37

William D. Arand

Warner spent his days like almost anyone else. He got up, went to work, answered phone calls in a call center, went home, spent time with his daughter, and went to sleep. Only to repeat the pattern over and over and over. Life was as mundane as anyone could ever fear it to be. Today was the day that all that would change. On this day, his daughter Maya would be nearly fatally injured, plunging Warner into a world of paranormal creatures, monsters, and magic he’d never known existed. The only consolation is that he discovers he’s not quite human, either. Nor is he very happy with the way of the world or how it spun. Built on corruption, lies, and injustice for all. An unlikely answer comes to him that fits his wounded heart. Justice handed out by him personally. Vengeance and retribution in equal measure to all that deserve it. Using his newfound powers and unbending determination, Warner is going to carve a path through the world that’ll send the darkest corners of existence fleeing before him. Even as he crushes them beneath his furious strikes. The very world will tremble with his actions and fear his coming. Warning and minor This novel contains graphic violence, undefined relationships/harem, unconventional opinions/beliefs, and a hero who is as tactful as a dog at a cat show. Read at your own risk.

Swing Shift 3

★ 4.49

William D. Arand

Reports to write, forms to fill, coffee to drink, leads to run down, organized crime syndicates to break.

Gus’s life had been a tedium and boredom he’d grown comfortable with. One that he sought out after he’d come back from his tour of duty.

That was before Melody, a contractor, more or less blew his life up as if it were a building packed full of c4.

Then helped him make a new life, which he himself ended blowing up.

A cushy new job with the FED, thrown out the window with a single gunshot.

All based on an assumption of who was working for who, and that he’d been on the wrong side of the equation.

And so ended his career in law enforcement after he became the assassin of a presidential candidate.

Now Gus is on to the next job. This time, working for his contractor and wife. The job they’re about to be given is a high paying one.

The thing is that the people they’re going up against? They’re just out to see the world burn. To send it screaming back down into the dark ages.

It’s a good thing that he’s a Boogieman.

Because being an apex predator that made the entirety of the Paranormal world fear him was something he could fall back on even in this situation. To hunt, investigate, and watch from the shadows.

Wouldn’t be the first time he’d put his life on the line either.

Unfortunately for everyone involved, the long forgotten and primordial past was rearing its ugly head.

Gus knows he can certainly punch above his own weight class, but this case might just be the one that ends him.

Warning and minor spoiler: This novel contains graphic violence, undefined relationships/harem, unconventional opinions/beliefs, and a hero who is as tactful as a dog at a cat show. Read at your own risk.

The Dead Rogue

★ 3.87

Pavel Kornev

Virtual worlds are places of boundless freedom. Anyone can become an elven mage or an invisible rogue, join a clan and go on raids, fight, develop their characters and most importantly, escape from the daily grind. However, a game is only a game if you can quit. This is something I learned the hard way. I just wanted to let off some steam in virtual reality and ended up getting murdered and imprisoned in the body of one of the undead—slow, clumsy and cursed to die at the hand of other players over and over again... The only way out of this awful predicament was to find the legendary Scroll of Rebirth, but the helpless plague-ridden corpse would need to be turned into a real killing machine. If only people knew what it was like to level up a dead rogue...

The Mythos University welcomes you.

The A name given to an event that, five years ago, changed the world forever. In a single day, humanity discovered that not only were they not alone, but they were not exactly at the top of the food chain.

Living in the shadows for millennia, supernaturals now had no choice but to finally come into the light. Because of the fury of a mad god, humans and supernaturals now had to learn to coexist side by side for the first time in living memory. With the revelation that magic was not only real but far more common than fairy tales led them to believe, a new society had to be born.

Years after that fateful day, Mythos University stands as the pioneer in a new form of magical education, welcoming the world's best young magic users into its ranks. Humans, werewolves, gnomes? At Mythos, everyone is accepted and treated as equals. A true example of the new society that is emerging.

Leo, one of these young people and one of the most powerful supernaturals of his generation, is starting at Mythos as a freshman. Finally stepping out from under his parents' wings, Leo just wants to live like a normal college learn magic, train in magical combat, make friends, and maybe even get a girlfriend.

But is the 18-year-old dragon, and something more, ready for all the challenges he will face on his journey? Will he be able to keep his secrets at least until the end of the semester, or was his hope of remaining anonymous, just another student among thousands, doomed to fail from the beginning?

No one said that being a freshman at the best magic academy in the world was simple and easy, but Leo is always ready for a good challenge.
