He is a Master Enchanter, perhaps the last one alive. Determined to keep a promise, he crosses the continent to protect his dead friend's legacy: a crumbling orphanage run by a beautiful kitsune.

Howdy, friend. I'm Rusty, and so is my big-rig's engine. When the old girl finally gave up the ghost in the middle of nowhere, I wasn't expecting to get a tow from an alien mothership. But the next thing I knew, me and my buddy Mike were halfway across the galaxy in an oversized hubcap full of the weirdest space creatures you ever did see.

A midnight witch hunt had an unexpected final destination: Ben Ford's living room. Ben was a simple man. He enjoyed video games, his dog, cooking, and suffering through each week of work so he could relax on the weekends. His simple life was upended when three gorgeous witches suddenly arrive in his living room via magical portal. They told him the gods had determined he was their protector. Once the proverbial dust cleared, he realized that building a life with these three women would be harder than anticipated; they didn't exist in the legal sense, after all.

After years on the run across the multiverse, I'd genuinely hoped the quiet coastal town of Arkley would be the perfect place to settle down. I just wanted somewhere to take it easy on the morning school run, to pile the hot chocolate high with marshmallows, and to enjoy a few high-stakes games of Keepy Uppy with my daughter, Edie.

You see, our new backyard sits right on top of a dimensional tear.

He breaks past the impossible Level 99 barrier and reaches Level 105, something long believed to be unattainable. Recently, he kills the Demon Lord. Except, unlike before, no one has an inkling that the Demon Lord is dead yet.

One minute, Maya was staring at a spreadsheet and nursing a lukewarm coffee; the next, she was staring down the mandibles of a cannibalistic beetle in a pitch-black cavern. Death was supposed to be a release, not a lateral move into a nightmare. But when the universe reincarnates you as a Void-Insectoid Queen in the middle of a battle royale, you don’t file a complaint. You organize. Prepare to be dragged into the bioluminescent depths of the Underdark, where the air smells of ozone and old blood.
