A formidable alien armada stands on the brink of vanquishing the cosmos, their gaze set firmly on every inhabited world. The last line of defense?

Their mission is to shield not just humanity, but billions of other intelligent lifeforms spanning the multiverse.

Zale is horrified. He’s in a new body on a different planet, and wants nothing else but to return home. But his hopes are shattered when his only way back becomes the focal point for a deadly cultist—one who calls down a flaming storm of death. Burning, dying, screaming at the unfairness of it all, Zale stumbles into the sanctum of an ancient goddess—one who sends him back in time. He wakes up at the beginning of the week, shocked he’s still alive, but it’s not all rainbows and butterflies. He only has ten loops to rack up his stats and train if he’s going to crush that cultist from hell.

Wilderness survival? With nothing but a knife and hatchet? When you're alone, and the wilderness is Earth at the end of the ice age? Not all the dangers come from predatory animals.

A man awakens in a clearing in what appears to be medieval England with no memory of who he is, where he came from, or why he is there. Chased by a group from his own time, his sole hope for survival lies in regaining his missing memories, making allies among the locals, and perhaps even trusting in their superstitious boasts. His only help from the “real world” should have been a guidebook entitled The Frugal Wizard’s Handbook for Surviving Medieval England, except his copy exploded during transit.

When every action and decision may determine the fate of everyone who has ever lived, the right choice is not always clear. For one man, there is no choice at all. Captain James Douglas sets off on a mundane transport and supply mission that quickly descends into disaster. Leading a fledgling society through a wild and hostile world was not part of his brief. Nor was the custodianship of all human life, history, and endeavor. Worse still, an enemy hides among his passengers, while the knowledge of a boy, just days out of school, may be all that stands between mankind and extinction.

Nothing made sense. Time shifts. Time travel. Visions. Six months ago, Sgt. Rowan Lockwood’s life was simple—catch smugglers, seize contraband, make arrests, then hit the bar to swap stories with the other ISA guards. Maybe take someone home if the night called for it. Now? She was drowning in problems she had no idea how to solve. The visions were coming faster, pressing on her, demanding attention she wasn’t ready to give. And if that wasn’t enough, her brother, Zach—who she saw die—was alive again, resurrected by a time shift she couldn’t begin to understand.

Anthony Franklin is a seasoned time traveler, and he’s tried to save his city 99 times before.... But this is the 100th Run. This is the only one that matters. As a monstrous swarm of enormous wasp-like creatures, called Vespae, prepare to invade, it’s up to Anthony and his ragtag crew to make the impossible…slightly less impossible. Unfortunately, the deadly creatures lurking in the wilds aren’t Anthony’s only problem. His past triumphs have made him a target for the vindictive system administrators—not to mention a host of bloodthirsty villains, who now have him firmly in their crosshairs.

Monsters that can destroy cities have appeared. The most highly leveled humans begin to abuse their power. And as levels rise, individual people start to reach the kind of power where they can rival militaries all by themselves. Time traveler Isaac Thoma has seen this dance before and vowed to never allow it to repeat itself, working tirelessly with his team to uncover the secrets of the System.

After their leader is taken, the remaining crew of the USS New World are in danger of losing heart. Freshly minted Captain Jill Baines feels the loss more acutely than anyone, yet she must somehow bring them all together to face the increased threat of an enemy whose power is growing by the hour. Left with just one course of action–attack, and quickly–her courage and ingenuity are tested to the limit while the deadly dinosaurs of Cretaceous Gondwana prove an unexpected ally.

Anthony Franklin may have saved his home, but the world is a big place that demands his attention. Leaving Etson behind, he sets his sights on Atlanta. Destroying dungeons, raiding bosses, and scaling death-defying mountains—the Chaos Cup, Georgia’s premier tournament, has everything he dreams of. He doesn’t just want to participate; he wants to come out on top as the indisputable victor.

Evaran and the gang travel to the NGC 4696 galaxy in the Centarus cluster, a part of the Hydra-Centarus supercluster, to deal with a summons. The world they arrive at is under a dimensional invasion by brood-like creatures. However, there is something of high value to the gang there, and they drop in to investigate.

Apparently, time-travel spells have a sense of humor and don’t take direction well. Mei Li could’ve done with knowing that beforehand and fully blames Shunlei for not forewarning her. Instead of going back a few years to rescue the missing tomes, Mei Li finds herself thousands of years in the past, with the original events she needs to learn about still 10 years into the future. She is stuck in a hurry-up-and-wait pattern she doesn’t appreciate.

Daniel Rice is a government science investigator whose specialty is solving seemingly intractable problems through scientific inquiry. But Daniel's intellectual strength is sorely tested by the bizarre realities he finds in the quantum world. Extra dimensions of space trap the unwary, probability replaces cause and effect, and time isn't what anyone imagined. The other side of the mirror is a place full of dangers, but it's also somewhere a dedicated scientist can uncover secrets that connect humans with something greater.

The System has dragged Pittsburgh underground, creating the Pitt—an undead-infested labyrinth of tunnels and dungeons.

In the 1980s, physicists at a lab in the Soviet Union find traces of strange data in the cosmic background radiation.

The scientists are limited to primitive 1980s technology, but what they find has roots in much, much older times. They finally try an experiment that they hope will win the world over for communism.

A spell at GCHQ sounded like a refreshing change for academic historian George. But his life is thrown upside down when he gets put in a team with a gifted physicist, Alex, and multi-talented prankster mathematician, Betty, who have covertly broken through the accepted rules of physics to produce an extraordinary novel technology.
