The Captain
Sci-Fi · Epic Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
Wizards, warships, and apocalyptic stakes collide in The Captain by Will Wight. After merging with six alternate selves, Varic Vallenar gains power beyond belief—and memories of every gruesome death.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Wizards don’t usually worry about cyborgs. Or alien supersoldiers. Or planet-eating bugs. Varic Vallenar isn’t most wizards.
On a backwater world, Varic performs a risky spell to merge with his alternate selves. He gains their magic—and their horrifying memories. Each one died fighting something terrifying. Now Varic knows what’s coming, and even with unmatched magical power, it’s not enough.
This galaxy isn’t just dangerous. It’s dying.
With threats ranging from secret syndicates to undead armies, Varic’s only hope lies in a long-lost legend: a mythical starship called The Last Horizon. Built to face the impossible. Manned by heroes.
If it’s real, it could be the answer. If it’s not, he’ll be the next one to fall.
To survive this galaxy, you need more than magic. You need a miracle.

About the book
The second adventure in the New York Times–bestselling fantasy trilogy from the legendary million-selling author and creator of Drizzt Do'Urden.
Luthien Bedwyr vowed to free his beleaguered land of Eriador from its demonic ruler, Wizard-King Greensparrow. Cloaked in a scarlet cape that renders him invisible and wielding a magical sword, Luthien is known to Eriador's oppressed as the Crimson Shadow. With the rallying support of enslaved humans, defiant peasants, and Fairborn elves, he has forged a path for liberation—raid by insurgent raid.
Even with a mighty battle-ready band of stalwart comrades—including halfling thief Oliver deBurrows; fierce elf warrior Katerin O'Hale; and the ancient and mysterious mage, Brind'Amour—the rebels are fighting an uphill battle against the vile despot's escalating and bloodthirsty army of cyclopean soldiers. Then, Greensparrow makes an unexpected bid for peace. But why would a wizard so cunning and so evil suddenly concede?
Though Eriador's slaves see the compromise as cause for celebration, Luthien and Brind'Amour recognize it as a calculated trap. The Crimson Shadow knows in his heart that the war for freedom has only just begun.
Return to a rousing, magical quest in book two of a trilogy hailed by Terry Brooks as a "fine adventure filled with memorable characters and compelling action."

Choose your retailer
About the book
The Beast has been unleashed—and Vordan may not survive what comes next.
The ancient demon once imprisoned beneath Elysium now spreads like a plague, consuming minds and raising an unstoppable army. At its helm is none other than General Janus bet Vhalnich, once Vordan’s greatest champion—now its greatest threat. When he declares himself Emperor, the nation fractures, and every regiment must choose: queen or traitor.
Queen Raesinia fights to preserve her crumbling rule without becoming a tyrant herself. Marcus d’Ivoire marches to war against the man he once revered. And Winter Ihernglass, still reeling from loss, must confront the darkness within her—the only weapon that may stop the Beast’s annihilation.
But defeating Janus might cost more than their lives. It may cost their very souls.

Peace looms—but not for long.
The Guns of Empire
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
Peace looms—but not for long. In The Guns of Empire, Queen Raesinia seeks diplomacy while General Janus sees only holy war. With soldiers torn between loyalty and truth, and dark magic rising from the depths of Elysium, the fourth Shadow Campaigns novel is a tense, explosive march toward a reckoning that could reshape the world.
Choose your retailer
About the book
The war may be ending—but peace is far from guaranteed.
Vordan’s enemies have suffered crushing defeats, and Queen Raesinia is ready to broker a fragile peace. But General Janus bet Vhalnich refuses to believe the Sworn Church will ever relent. He insists their holy war is absolute—and that the Priests of the Black will fight to the last heretic.
Now, soldiers Marcus d’Ivoire and Winter Ihernglass must choose between the queen who champions diplomacy and the general who marches toward a final, brutal conflict. Each must weigh loyalty against conviction—and face the terrible costs of defiance.
As diplomacy falters and darkness stirs in the heart of Elysium, Vordan’s fate hangs by a thread. The next battle could shatter everything.
And something monstrous is waking.

Vordan is on the brink.
The Price of Valor
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
Vordan is on the brink. As zealots seize control and assassins stalk the queen, war looms—and the enemy wields forbidden magic. The Price of Valor thrusts Janus, Winter, and Raesinia into a deadly game of politics and sorcery. Library Journal calls the series “epic fantasy of military might and magical conflict”—and this installment delivers.
Choose your retailer
About the book

Meanwhile, General Janus bet Vhalnich readies his forces for a continent-spanning war. But the enemy is not merely political. In the shadows, dark priests from an ancient order unleash forbidden magic to bring Janus down.
Winter Ihernglass, newly promoted and reunited with her found family, must lead her regiment into the teeth of chaos.
The fate of a nation will be forged in fire, sacrifice, and secrets in The Price of Valor, Django Wexler’s searing third entry in The Shadow Campaigns.

A queen rises.
The Shadow Throne
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
A queen rises. A tyrant tightens his grip. In The Shadow Throne, Django Wexler returns to his critically acclaimed series with a tale of rebellion, political scheming, and arcane secrets.

A soldier turned tavern guard.
The Queen’s Blade
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Fantasy Adventure · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
A soldier turned tavern guard. A kingdom on the brink. A destiny forged in magic. The Queen’s Blade kicks off a gripping fantasy saga full of reluctant heroes, court intrigue, and forgotten power. Fans of morally gray protagonists and slow-burn worldbuilding will devour this one. Click now and follow Zaren Joha as he picks up the blade he swore to lay down.
Choose your retailer
About the book
He walked away from war. But war didn’t walk away from him.
Zaren Joha was once a soldier—disciplined, deadly, and disillusioned. Now he keeps peace in a quiet riverside tavern, trading command for calm and blades for ale. It’s not a grand life, but it’s his.
Until Waleith arrives.
Mysterious, calculating, and wielding authority straight from the Queen’s inner circle, Waleith pulls Zaren into a world of vanishing outposts, forbidden magic, and assassins cloaked in royal approval. What begins as a simple job quickly spirals into something far darker.
Old instincts resurface. So do old enemies.
As ancient forces stir and political tides shift, Zaren must face the truth: strength alone won’t save him—or those he’s grown to care for. To survive, he must become more than a soldier.
He must become the Queen’s Blade.

How to Survive at the End of the World
Fantasy · Teen + Young Adult · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
A bad day turns apocalyptic in How to Survive at the End of the World, a LitRPG thrill ride full of spiky lizards, vengeful bunny warriors, and time magic gone haywire. Sean Lawrence isn’t prepared—but he's stubborn enough to fight anyway. With 4.8 stars on Amazon, this hilarious, high-stakes survival saga is pure chaos-fueled fun. Click now to enter the endgame.
Choose your retailer
About the book
One OSHA violation. One misstep. One-way ticket to the apocalypse.
Sean Lawrence’s day was already garbage before a freak accident catapulted him into the monster-ridden, chaos-scorched future of Earth. Think dragon-filled wastelands, spike-shooting lizards, divine gnats with tempers, and morally upright battle bunnies. Yep. It’s that kind of end times.
Armed with nothing but a sketchy guidebook, a scavenged knife, and a maybe-magical leather jacket, Sean faces a brutal world where everyone else has a head start. But instead of laying low and gathering rat pelts like a sane person, he goes full tilt into survival—with a side of rebellion.
How to Survive at the End of the World is an adrenaline-fueled Apocalypse LitRPG for fans of wild worlds, unconventional power-ups, and heroes who definitely wing it.

A battle-hardened warrior who fears nothing finds herself drawn back toward the one place and past she has never wanted to face.
Red Sonja: Consumed
Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
A battle-hardened warrior who fears nothing finds herself drawn back toward the one place and past she has never wanted to face. In Red Sonja: Consumed, rumors of buried horrors and a voice in her dreams pull Sonja home to confront what was left behind. This fantasy adventure blends brutal action, dark supernatural menace, and a heroine forced into reckoning as much as combat.

About the book
"Gail Simone writes like a storm gathering. Thunder is coming!" ―John Scalzi, New York Times bestselling author
"Fierce and fascinating. This is the story Red Sonja has always deserved. Unmissable." ––Felicia Day
Red Sonja, the iconic, fiery, she-devil with a sword, is reinvented for a new generation of readers in this action-packed epic fantasy by legendary comic book writer Gail Simone.
The warrior Red Sonja, the famous fiery She-Devil of Hyrkania, has never concerned herself with the consequences of her actions. She’s taken what she wanted, from treasure to drink to the companionship of bedfellows. She’s fought who deserved it (and sometimes those who didn’t). And she’s never looked back.
But when rumors start bubbling up from her homeland—rumors of unknown horrors emerging from the ground and pulling their unsuspecting victims to their deaths—and a strange voice begins whispering to her in her sleep, she realizes she may have to return to the country that abandoned her. And finally do the only thing that has ever scared her: confront her past.

But when a heist goes wrong, leaving him cornered and alone, fate throws him an unlikely lifeline: the last surviving member of the Shadow Knights, a secret order once sworn to protect the realm.
Under brutal training, Veron hones skills he never imagined—stealth, swordplay, and something even more dangerous: purpose. But as an ancient enemy threatens the kingdom from beyond the mountains, Veron must rise faster than he’s ready.
Balancing street survival, deadly training, and the spark of ambition, Veron must decide if he's willing to sacrifice everything to save a kingdom that never cared if he lived.
