Synopsis

On my eighteenth birthday, I got kicked out of my home, mugged in an alley, and killed a guy with my mind … then things got weird.

I expected aging out of the foster care system to be hard. I wasn’t expecting it to include finding out I was a Warlock, destined to be hunted by the most powerful Witch Families so they could bind me to a coven of thirteen witches and spend the rest of my life “harvesting mana”. Add to that a set of magical resonants that made me an even bigger target to some of those Witch Families, some of which would rather kill me than let a rival get me.

How’s a warlock supposed to stay alive and free? Simple – just go to Witch College, find thirteen witches willing to be bound to you forever in your own coven, and learn enough magic to fend off the most powerful Witch Families in the world.

Warlock contains unconventional relationships and multiple bondings between the main character and witches.

Daniel Kensington

When I left my old life behind, I thought I’d seen the worst of it. Turns out, I was wrong.

Six months after discovering I’m a Warlock, surviving my first semester at a magic college filled with witches, and forming a coven with my roommate, things are getting complicated. Just as I’m starting to make sense of Willowmere and the Witch Families that want me bound to them—or dead—Morgan, the closest thing I had to family in foster care, shows up. Only she’s got magic of her own. Now, between trying to figure out how to keep her safe, discovering the dark forces targeting my classmates, and keeping my coven together, life has officially reached a new level of weird.

At least I’m not alone. With my witch, Samantha, by my side and Melaina, my ancient, powerful (and frustratingly attractive) mentor, guiding me, I’m building a coven strong enough to keep the Families at bay. But as I delve deeper into the dark force targeting Willowmere, the lines between love, power, and loyalty blur as my coven grows in unexpected ways, adding an internal battle for us to face.

Warlock contains unconventional relationship dynamics and multiple bondings between the main character and witches.

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.

The Enchanter

★ 4.2

Tobias Begley

Evan never thought he was going to be special. As the adopted son of a tailor, he had always expected to manage the shop after his father passed. But when his Aura awakens, he finds himself entering Yesgol Academy of Magic, a place filled with the children of elite mages and nobles, all of whom have had magical education from the time they could walk. Among such prestigious company, Evan will have to learn fast or be left in the dust and in debt.

At Yesgol, he studies the arts of enchanting and divination, but all is not as it seems. As Evan pushes forwards his skills as a mage to catch up with his peers, he finds himself entangled with a secret society for the reformation of magic, deals with the occasional extraplanar horror appearing in the shadows of the school, and catches the eye of a charming young noble who's been excommunicated from his family.

M.H. Johnson

Forged in Fire

Miraculously, Alex had survived the crucible of combat and emerged victorious, earning the right to attend Dragon Academy.

But his trials had only begun.

For Alex had dared the unthinkable.

A despised Ruidian entering Dragon Academy was an abomination the school’s elite would stop at nothing to destroy, eager to cripple or kill him if they possibly could.

Even worse, Alex’s mentor was notorious for throwing his disciples into the thick of any conflict, no matter how unfair the odds.

Alex knew only two paths lay before him:

To be forged in the fires of his enemies’ hate into a killing blade capable of cutting down all his foes…
Or to be hammered into slag, never to rise again.

Eager for a fast-paced Wuxia/LitRPG adventure filled with deadly adversaries, exotic adventures, and mighty cultivators fighting for the power to topple kingdoms? Then read on!
