"More monsters. More magic. More maidens.
Tim Dent's adventures have brought him to the sea-faring realm known as Lagoon, where he's acquired more monsters in his bid to defeat Kyros, the First Summoner. However, his staunch ally Henry Flint, the captain of the ship known as the Glen Carrig, has been captured by Seiryu, a legendary monster of immense power.
Together with his tamed monsters and his beautiful companions, Tim must rescue Flint before he's consumed.
Narrated in duet style."
"I haven't been a summoner for long, but I've already found myself three monsters and two Latents.
The former are fearsome monsters that grant me power, while the latter are beautiful women who can cast their own spells.
Together, we've become fugitives, with the world's First Summoner looking to take us down.
To ensure the safety of not only Earth, I'm crossing into other realms to make pacts with the deadliest monsters I can find. Then, I'm going to use Fusion to combine them into even more powerful monsters. Once that's done, I'm taking the fight to Kyros.
Easy, right?"
"My name is Von Dominus, and I am the Lord of Zagorath.
Not too long ago, I was just Dominic Thompson, a former employee of an American marketing firm. I have Lilith, the goddess of the Infernal Realms, to thank for my new state in life. Now, she's returned to my dungeon, hoping to strip away what she gave to me.
I won't simply roll over and let her take it. I like what I've built. Sure, she started me on my quest for domination, but where was she when I carved out my first dungeon room or built my first trap? Was she present when I enthralled my beautiful champions: the troll and the storm dungeon core?
I won't let her take what I've built. It might require rethinking my purpose in the Sinarius Realms, but I'll have my champions and minions by my side."
"Vincent Pike has acquired money, women, and power, but the title of sole Blood Lord has evaded him.
Until now.
The final battle between Blood Lords has come. The winner will become the ruler of all... the Night King!"
"Ben has taken a second tower, but there are still three remaining.
He turns his sights upon the third tower, one ruled by an intelligent version of himself whose creations are both ghoulish and powerful. By breeding more monsterkin and adding new citizens to his growing empire, he might have what he needs to claim his third tower."
"In a world where magic users craft monsters to gain supernatural abilities, the monsters are fighting back.
After devouring countless humans, they can now shapeshift into people. They live among the human realms, waiting for their moment to strike.
Prince Gray, heir to the throne, has discovered these shapeshifters. Stopping this hidden force will require alliances with creatures beyond the edge of civilization: a secluded tribe of beastkin women.
The all-female tribe exists on the edge between human and animal. They are powerful, but they are nothing compared to the threat of the shapeshifters. They need someone to protect them, someone who can unlock their potential, someone who has the ability to transform them into so much more. Someone like Gray: a man with the ability to bond to the beastkin. In exchange for protection, he'll receive power.
Together with these alluring non-humans, Gray seeks the truth behind the monsters and the origin of the strange powers he wields."
"After finding out that magic is real, I joined an academy filled with other summoners.
I planned on becoming an adept summoner, commanding powerful monsters to fight alongside me. All my ambitions were crushed when the academy was destroyed and every other summoner killed or captured.
Now, I'm the world's last summoner. I'm all alone except for a blonde Latent named Lexi. With the power to cross between worlds, I'll capture the rarest monsters, recruit beautiful women to empower with my magic, and master the realms."
"Vincent Pike and his coterie set their sights on Miami.
Another Blood Lord has taken control of the region, and it's Vince's intention to become the Blood Lord of the whole East Coast.
But Vince's ambitions won't stop there. His thirst for power is much like his thirst for blood: insatiable.
With this insatiable drive, it won't be long before Vincent Pike's quest for domination turns international."
"After discovering the statues of Tellus the Mad and his Adepts, Rune soon learns that these statues are not just simple stone monuments. Beyond the stone shells, the hearts within the statues still beat.
With the war with the Djani on the horizon and their Goddess devising her own plans, Rune and his Adepts must find a way to stop Tellus. To do that, they'll have to delve deeper into the essence of magic and find a hidden source known as Resonances. Through this sacred and mystical form of magic, the bonds between Rune and his Adepts could grow ever stronger.
Unlocking the Resonances will be no easy task. But to save the world and protect the women he loves, Rune has no other choice."
"After defeating Constantin and acquiring the Helsing HQ for his own, Vincent Pike is on top of the world.
All that is threatened when he receives a visit from his Uncle Richter. Richter claims that Vince's parents are not only witches but are also in danger.
Throw in the threat of rival blood lords and hordes of zombies, and things start to really heat up for Vincent Pike, Blood Lord of New York City.
If he can handle the heat and come out on top, he might just find himself the ruler of all crypts on the East Coast."
"After clearing his name, Rune Tellarus finds himself a guest in the palace.
The plans to harm himself and his Adepts have not been foiled completely, and to do so will require getting close to the most powerful man in the kingdom: King Celtis.
At the king's request, Rune will soon begin his training as a Guardian Elite, and that means bonding to another Adept. And what better woman to bond with than the king's own daughter, Princess Nolana?
His mission is soon put at risk when the palace is visited by an ambassador of Djani. This man wishes to make the princess his bride, something that Rune cannot allow to happen, not if he wants to protect his Adepts.
But the palace is filled with secrets, and not everyone is who they appear to be, least of all Rune Tellarus, Guardian Prime."
"Rune Tellarus always wanted to become a Guardian: a powerful warrior bonded to a magic-wielding woman known as an Adeptal Mage.
Except he failed the test as a youth. He thought he would never get the chance to study at their Academy nor learn magic. But after a terrible tragedy in a nobleman's home, he finds himself suddenly bonded with the nobleman's daughter, Narcissa. This bonding is an irrevocable merging of two spirits that grants both Mage and Guardian magical gifts.
Yet Rune hardly knows Narcissa. The beautiful nobleman's daughter hides a secret, one that the kingdom's mages would do anything to uncover. Now, Rune and Narcissa find themselves on the run, in a city filled with Mages and Guardians who will do anything to capture them. If the pair is going to survive, they'll need to cultivate their bond and learn new magical abilities. But will it be enough for their bond to grow into something more?
Rune might have to discover something about himself he never knew, a secret that could lead to establishing bonds with multiple Adeptal Mages...
Mage Guardian contains unconventional relationships and multiple bondings between the main character and mages."
