"The Morrigan hunts the prince of demons.
I am the reincarnation of a dark god. I cannot escape that now. The prince of demons come again. And I am hunted.The Fomori have a prophecy about my return, and have been so kind as to dispatch the Morrigan herself to slay me. She's even forging a special divine sword.
Their armies of beastmen and giants march upon Hasra, and the ailing empire is in no shape to hold. They need new troops. They need us. My friends and I are being sent off to the other Catalysts we control to gain more magic so that we can resist the Fomori advance.
First we'll journey to Calmora, to gain air from the Breath of Shu. Then we will fly to Enestius to gain dream from the Hoard of Lakshmi. If we survive, then we'll move on to the strongest Catalyst on the continent, the legendary Hammer of Reevanthara.
Once we have secured our powers we'll return to the war, and break the Fomori...or die trying. I will find a way to drive them from our lands, for my family. For my people. For the darkness living inside me."
"Fated to destroy the world. Determined to save it.
My name is Xal, and I live in the dims—a walled prison where my people are kept by our cruel masters until we are needed to fight once more. One member of every family must answer The Call, for our blood bears the magic of a demonic god and all the terrible power that brings.
We march to war against the Fomori, an unstoppable army of giants and their behemoths. If we do not, then our families are put to death. The Hasrans use us as cannon fodder and worse. They used up my father, and he never came home. Die resisting. Die fighting. My choice isn't if it happens, but rather how I sell my life.
If by some miracle I survive, I will be granted entrance to the Imperial Academy, where every noble house will vie to architect my end. They cannot allow the void-blooded to live. They cannot allow us to thrive or to gain more magic from the bodies of other dead gods. They cannot allow us to win. They fear the rise of another dreadlord. And they are right to fear. I will pull down an empire, and that is just the beginning.
Shattered Gods is based on the Magitech Chronicles Pen & Paper RPG and takes place in the same universe."
"The race for Resurrection City begins with an earthquake, a rare class, and a portal to the Spirit Realm.
In the aftermath of waking the game system known as the Cipher, the newly minted council of 11 must learn to wage war with new skills in a world that's been cut in half.
It's a race against time...and new enemies to fulfill prophecy and activate the first Rune they need to survive. The alien Osuna are coming, and scripture says that only the Runelords will stand a chance when they arrive.
Can Cullen's party find the Spirit Realm's buried city that houses the dangerous and necessary Rune? And what sort of terrible fate awaits the unprepared?"
"The system that time forgot suddenly shows back up.
The Cipher ran the universe with its game-like rules, and it has chosen Cullen, an exiled bounty hunter, to be the method of its return. He's given a quest to free a telepathic mother and son from wrongful imprisonment. If he can break his targets out of prison, they'll have to level up, learn new skills, and hunt down the prophecy's clues. All while facing down berserkers and EMP-hurling tigers in a jungle that offers no succor.
The promised reward is that the Cipher will grant access and the associated power to all of his embattled people, turning the tide in the galactic war that's ravaging the cosmos.
Includes 'Apocalypse Archer', a bonus story from the Ciphercraft series."
"Asheva must learn to survive on his own and put aside his age-old Black Nation hatred for enemy Red Chromes. As he makes his way to the Red city of Samaris, his convictions about the Red clash with the reality of a land divided into castes. There, the Janis, members of the lowest caste, are left to live in abominable conditions. But turmoil is building, both inside the walls of Samaris and outside where a violent attack takes the Reds by surprise...and nothing in all of the Territories will ever be the same again."
"Chromes of different colors need to unite and overcome their differences. In the meantime, the love between Asheva and Cestia is put to the test, and the outcome is anything but certain. Life, death, friendship, freedom...they all merge into a new breathtaking journey into the territories, where a new dawn has just begun."
"In a world where everyone wears masks and superstitions abound, the color of your chrome determines who you are and where you will live. And if you will live. Asheva, a fourteen-year-old Chrome of the Black Nation, will see his world crumble underneath him as events too big for his age will force him to run away from his native city of Axyum. A new journey will take him to lands with different colors and different ways from the Black. From a desperate escape through the hills and forests of the Black Nation to the vast Blue Plains of the city of Ayas, Asheva will learn to face the dangerous wilderness and the even more dangerous nature of the Chromes, including the worst accusation a Chrome can be charged with. Only then will he realize that, beneath the masks that all Chromes wear, nothing is what it seems."
"The Seer was trained to see the fate of others, but nothing prepared her for her own destiny... In the last leg of Asheva's journey, new stories and secrets will be revealed. Secrets that will shake the very foundation of the Territories. Secrets that have to do with a young prince, a monarch, and a Seer..."
"Violence sweeps the Territories as the Black Nation continues to bite at the heels of Asheva and Cestia, the fallen Red Princess. Cestia has to rise above her own personal tragedy to uncover the truth about the Chromes, the Harlequins, and Asheva. Asheva, in the meantime, caught between the wrath of revenge and the desire for love, needs to fight his own demons. Together, Cestia and Asheva vow to rise and fight the darkness that has taken hold of their world. And they do this first in the Twin Cities, where the Orange and Yellow Chromes live and where divisions are not only based on the color of the Chrome..."
"Teenage burn survivor Wilder Tate begins high school ashamed of his disfigurement.

The operation costs him his basketball career and puts a wedge between him and his best friend, his mother, and his classmates. The only girl who understands him is Lane Makansi, an ostracized and bullied cutter who sees the truth of Wilder's self-loathing. Their unlikely friendship begins to salve their deep internal wounds until tragedy strikes—and Lane is the culprit. In the aftermath, Wilder discovers a capacity to forgive and empathize that he has never once applied to himself, leading to a dramatic decision that will change his life, and Lane's life, forever."
