About the book
Being the best isn’t always as glorious as it seems.
Ayrion, desperate to become his clan’s youngest warrior, fears nothing—except magic. When a tragedy forces him to flee, he boards a ship with a grim reputation: The Cursed Ship.

Will Ayrion's courage carry him to glory, or will the dark forces chasing him turn his dreams to ash? Sometimes, survival is the deadliest game of all.
There’s only one question left—how far will he go to claim his destiny?

Amid battles, divine intrigue, and love born in secrecy, Iris must confront a war for humanity’s survival—and her own.

The Henchmen Chronicles Collection
Craig Halloran
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
All-Star pitcher Abraham Jenkins had it all—until he didn’t. Now a beer truck driver trapped in a medieval world, he must impersonate a legendary swordsman just to survive. Armed with a mythical blade and surrounded by assassins, he faces one choice: master the sword or lose everything.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Abraham Jenkins knew all about high-stakes games—he just didn’t expect to play one with a sword in his hand.
Once an All-Star pitcher, Abraham’s life nosedives after a tragedy. Now he’s just another guy in a beer truck, his fame as useful as an empty keg. But a twist of fate lands him in a brutal medieval world, clutching a legendary sword and surrounded by outlaws, assassins, and monsters.
The kicker? Abraham must pass as Ruger Slade, the deadliest swordsman alive. There’s only one problem: he’s never swung a blade in his life.
With a death sentence hanging over him, survival means mastering the sword fast enough to save a kingdom—or die trying.
Will he make it home, or lose it all in a bloody gamble?

Our take
Leonel Anglian fled his family’s heroic legacy, seeking freedom in ancient ruins and forgotten relics. But when he uncovers a powerful artifact hidden for centuries, his peaceful life shatters. Hunted by zealots, warlords, and shadowy enemies, Leo must confront his past and face an impossible choice: protect the relic’s secrets or risk a future consumed by chaos.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Leonel Anglian was born to a legacy of heroes—but he turned his back on it all. The grandson of a legendary warrior-general, Leo traded duty for freedom, becoming a broke excavator searching for relics of the Ancients alongside a ragtag crew.

Everything changes when he unearths a relic that could rewrite history. This discovery awakens powerful enemies: a vengeful orc chieftain bent on erasing Leo’s bloodline, a fanatical Church desperate to control the artifact’s secrets, and shadowy forces poised to plunge the world into chaos.
With time running out and danger closing in, Leo must decide—will he embrace the hero’s path he rejected or watch the world burn?

Gods and Dragons

A dragon egg could save Valeria—or end her.

Gods and Dragons
Justin DePaoli
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
A dragon egg could save Valeria—or end her. Power from an ancient rune could be Corina's ruin. In two epic sagas, humanity’s fate hinges on two heroines facing ruthless gods, bloodthirsty dragons, and death itself. Survival isn’t guaranteed, but their secrets might just rewrite destiny.
Choose your retailer
About the book
The Dragonblood Saga
A dragon egg was supposed to save Valeria. Instead, it might kill her. Survival now means tapping into strange, dangerous powers and battling dragons bent on human annihilation—not to mention taking on an order of gods capable of wiping out worlds.
Death is close, but Valeria has a secret. And it's one that could change everything.
Ascension
Corina Vyliss stumbles on an ancient rune in a dark cave and wins immense power—and a death sentence. To survive, she must take down an immortal emperor under the influence of a god, defeat sorcery-fueled armies, and outmaneuver deities with agendas of their own.
These might be tall tasks, but Corina is a Possessor—the first in centuries. And everyone’s about to find out why.
