A prophesied king is born, but not all will benefit from his foretold conquests. In a realm where only clerics are permitted to practice magic, Kibure, a mere slave, draws the attention of much more than just his master after wielding an unknown force in a moment of desperation. In a twist of fate, Sindri, the priestess hired to strip Kibure of his power, defies the law, revealing designs of her own. This wayward pair will have to work together if they hope to evade capture at the hands of the Empire's most potent wielders.

The stakes are higher than ever as the Demon Overlord must once again confront forces that threaten to trample his town and his vegetables in the third installment of this witty and sharp fantasy series. ***Includes an exclusive bonus adventure coming 29/12/26!*** Galornus Prime, former Demon...

She's unlike any one or any thing else: a Non-Standard Leashed-Intelligence Cybernetic Enforcer aka NSLICE-00P. The first of her kind, she's let loose into a universe of superheroes on behalf of her sinister masters to destroy all who oppose them. And everything's going according to plan—until NSLICE-00P gets hacked and sent into the past to kill her own creator before he creates her. Obeying orders as always, she wastes the poor guy. Unfortunately, there are consequences to initiating a reality-breaking time paradox. The most significant: total ejection from that reality.

The fate of the world hangs on choices Kibure hardly understands, and the ripples of victory could just as easily turn into waves of defeat. Kibure and Sindri set off in pursuit of allies in a world beset by distrust and the schemes of their enemies. As the Lugienese Empire sweeps across the continent, Rajuban uses his cunning to consolidate power as he prepares to unleash ancient monsters of myth and seeks a weapon capable of vanquishing an entire people in moments.

Kibure’s captors are willing to teach him to control his magic, but such training is not given freely. And not everyone who offers help means well.

His sister, Dagmara, determines to help him escape judgment, but how many will have to die in order to keep Aynward from the gallows? 

A bandit walks into a coffeehouse, and it all goes downhill from there. Guet Imm, a young votary of the Order of the Pure Moon, joins up with an eclectic group of thieves (whether they like it or not) in order to protect a sacred object, and finds herself in a far more complicated situation than she could have ever imagined. 

From atop the choppy waves to the choking darkness of the abyss, the seas are full of mystery and rife with tales of inexplicable events and encounters with the unknown. In this anthology we see a thrilling spread of narratives: sailors are pitched against a nightmare from the depths, invisible to the naked eye, a German U-boat commander is tormented by an impossible transmission via Morse Code, a ship ensnares itself in the kelp of the Sargasso Sea and dooms a crew of mutineers, seemingly out of revenge for her lost captain.

An annoying long-lost 'cousin', war, and the prospect of love all threaten the Demon Overlord's tranquil retirement in the edgy, laugh-out-loud sequel to The Demon Overlord's Retirement Plan. ***Includes an exclusive bonus adventure coming 20/10/26!*** There's no rest for the wicked. Especially...

As it turned out, fate put NSLICE-00P in the right place at the right time: she's become a legit heroine in this new existence.
