Sangrel is rebuilding after bloodshed, but peace is a fragile illusion—and King Elliott feels it cracking beneath his crown. Whispers coil through his court, questioning his rule, his queen, and the future of a throne that may never have an heir. As unrest grows, Elliott discovers a far more intimate danger: the crown itself has been poisoning him, slowly reshaping him into the ruthless monster his enemies expect him to become.

The king is hated, but he is feared. The bravest whisper treason in dark corners, but there are few who will stand against him. His soldiers are better trained and better equipped, they are ruthless, and they are led by a clergy who have transcended mortality.

I was supposed to be a sacrifice—a battery to be used and discarded by the elite of the Iron Vow Society. But the mountain has other plans. And so do the three monsters who rule its shadows.

Lloyd's devilish boss Faust hasn't been the same since a tentacle monster spit him out of an alternate dimension, and his ex-girlfriend tried to start the zombie apocalypse. And Angel eight ball? He's having a hell of a time juggling a terrible new boss and saving Lloyd from eternal damnation.

Ren Lewis doesn't need spells, rituals, or blood. All it takes is a thought. He can slip into your mind like a whisper, rewrite your desires, and turn your deepest convictions into dust. With a flicker of intent, he can bend reality until it breaks in his hands. Presidents, CEOs, crime lords… for Ren Lewis, every mind is a door—and he holds the master key.

Unfortunately, it won’t be as easy as just shaking down a few shops for protection money and managing some smuggling. There’s a plague spreading, the eyes of the Fingers are on him, and there may be war on the horizon.

Stranded in a world without magic, the Dungeon Lord must now find a way to return to the magical realm of Ivalis. If his enemies realize he’s disappeared, they’ll undoubtedly fall upon his dungeon like vultures. Worse yet, he’s not alone on Earth.
