He was sent to kill one man on top of the Eiffel Tower. The mission is the last thing that goes according to plan.

Roman Thomaas has no country and no leash. Korvathia was erased from the map by other people’s wars, and ever since he has worked freelance: a suppressed pistol, an AI assistant named MIRA, and a reputation that keeps the contracts coming. Tonight’s target is selling an artifact to buyers who flew in from three governments. Roman lines up the shot. Then lightning strikes the relic, an impossible light floods the platform, and the world simply ends beneath his feet.

He wakes on Ardor. Three moons. A red sky. Breathable air that is not from Earth. And a translucent blue panel that greets him like a returning customer:

WELCOME TO ARDOR, TRAVELER.
FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE LATE ARRIVALS SERIES COMES A NEW PROGRESSION LITRPG WHERE THE MYSTERY HITS AS HARD AS THE MONSTERS.

The System calls him routine. One of millions of Travelers logged every year, assigned a class, awarded experience for the kill, handed a title and a tutorial. Roman almost believes it, until a second message arrives from something the interface itself cannot name: You were expected. You are a late arrival.

He is not the only one who came through. Four others fell with him, professionals every one: an intelligence broker who reads a room the way Roman reads a rifle, a decorated soldier down to her last irreplaceable rounds, and a weapon in the shape of a woman who was never taught anything but the work. Building a crew is the only math that keeps them alive past the first night in a forest that treats new arrivals as a menu.
But the deeper Roman goes, the worse the picture gets. His blood carries a dormant Precursor bloodline that is now waking one night at a time, on a countdown he cannot pause. When it finishes, he becomes something the oldest powers on this world have been waiting centuries to collect, and being the one they have waited for is not a blessing. It is a bounty.

Two worlds are hunting him. He has three people, a shrinking box of ammunition, and a clock.

A crime broker back home wants his contract closed. An intelligence agency wants to know whether the door swings both ways. A monstrous marketplace has already put a price on his living body. And a four-hundred-year-old order of researchers has crossed a continent just to watch what he turns into. Everyone is keeping a schedule on Roman. None of them mean him any kindness.

To survive, Roman has to do what he has always done best: read the room, count the exits, and make sure that when it goes loud, he is not the one still standing in the open. But skill only buys the first ten seconds. After that it comes down to levels, and the level that matters most is the one ticking up inside him while he sleeps.

Perfect for readers who love:
• Portal fantasy and isekai with a hard, grounded edge
• LitRPG and progression fantasy with real stats, skills, and a System with an agenda
• 18+ readers only $0.99 on Kindle.

But what awaits the survivors on the other side is more than just the answer to a centuries-old mystery. It is a completely different world.
A world where high technology is mixed with ancient rituals. Where cutting-edge war machines stand alongside medieval fortresses. Where a dying race, exhausted by millennia of existence, awaits its final hour—or a miracle that can only come from the sky.

A world where beneath the ruins, ash, and stardust, something greater than a mere struggle for survival is born. A friendship forged in fire and battles. A love that proves stronger than distance, and stronger than the vast void between worlds.

And a hope of ever returning home.— ONLY $0.99 OR FREE ON KINDLE UNLIMITED! $0.99 on Kindle.

As promised, artificial intelligence has taken over seventy percent of the workforce once employed by humans, leaving many struggling.

As the American people fight to survive, they grow weary of watching corrupt government officials put their selfish interests above the will of the people, and demand they be replaced by Damian Malone’s cyborgs. A genius in robotics and genomic testing, Malone has perfected the manufacture of artificially intelligent cyborgs that run ninety-five percent of people’s homes and businesses.

When the populace witness his latest innovations, they become desperate to see the United States run by the cyborgs’ logical algorithms rather than the malfeasance and corruption of current human leadership.

What the country is unaware of is Malone’s second passion: The environment.

A strong conservationist, he uses his vast wealth and leverage over current President, John Langdon, to establish a new branch of government called the Department of Environmental Preservation (DEP), and appointing Dr. Stephanie Wolff as its leader.

Dr. Wolff, a prominent figure in the conservation movement, works tirelessly to end corporate animal testing and all forms of animal cruelty worldwide.

With forty percent of the world’s animal populations facing extinction due to human interference, she welcomes the opportunity offered by President Langdon and Malone to use the vast might of the United States to aid her ambitions, but then a series of events, both home and abroad, change her perspective forever.

When a hunting party in Africa goes missing, and an American Senator is murdered, she is brought into the workings of Dr. Malone and his company, AlonGen, with the results shaking her to the core.

Along with FBI Special Agent David Stryker, the two must decipher Malone’s intentions, and hope they are capable of saving the world when things go horribly wrong. $0.99 on Kindle.

The scientists must learn to communicate and coexist with these dinosaur species, which initially view them as no more than exotic pets.
One of the humans is determined to recreate the original experiment in this primitive world so they can return home. Assuming there is a home, or even a universe, to return to.

Another scientist is looking to rise to power in this new world, even if it means the death of his traveling companions.

Strait-laced Jay David is sure about one thing: the preservation of the Charterist empire is the only way to safeguard the citizens of the Seti solar system from the pitfalls of their progenitors. To that end, he’s worked tirelessly for nearly a decade, deftly signing prefab countries to the Charterist mandate on the three inner planets, all the while dreaming about his fabulous someday civilian clothes.

On the eve of his transition out of civil service, he’s offered the assignment of a lifetime: voyage to the outer planets of the System, orchestrate their signing, and facilitate collective terms for all the Charterist countries.

The timing is no accident–after only 600 years of habitation, Seti’s carefully planned political structure is starting to crack, and Jay suspects certain alarming events of late aren’t as random as they appear. His devotion to the System’s welfare leaves him little choice but to start packing.

But things are different out-System, and Jay’s insulated life hasn’t prepared him for the danger, intrigue, and romance he encounters as tensions mount across the System, and signs emerge of a far-reaching conspiracy.

What does a gentleman do when his innermost beliefs are challenged? When doing the right thing becomes a moving target? When he’s forced to change his entire wardrobe in the middle of it all?

Jay’s about to find out…

He shouldn’t have survived that night.

Alex Weston didn’t believe in monsters—until something found him in the dark. Not human. Something faster. Smarter. Designed.

And when it should have killed him… something inside him answered instead.

A flash of light. Impossible. Violent. Alive.

THE THREAT
The world calls them vampires. But they are not myth.

They are Namtar—engineered predators buried beneath Antarctic ice since the fall of Atlantis. And now, they are waking.

As Alex’s body begins to change, the truth unravels faster than he can understand it:

The people around him know more than they should.

The past is not what he was told.

And somewhere in the shadows, a man named Shaw is already preparing.

Because this isn’t an outbreak. It’s a reset. Humanity was never meant to survive what’s coming next.

THE VERDICT
NAMTAR: The Night Plague is a dark techno-thriller where ancient myth collides with engineered evolution—and humanity is no longer at the top of the food chain.

Perfect for fans of Michael Crichton’s scientific dread, Blake Crouch’s relentless pacing, and the sweeping biological stakes of Justin Cronin. $2.99 on Kindle.

Commander Reeve expected a routine survey. Tag the rocks, log the readings, go home.

Then he orders his crew to drill into an asteroid that shouldn’t exist. A pulse goes out. Something ancient opens its eyes.

For centuries, humanity believed it was alone. It wasn’t. It was simply beneath notice.

The galaxy has been waiting. $0.99 on Kindle.

At 12:42 p.m. on a Tuesday, every human being on Earth loses consciousness. Five hours later, they wake up. Seven hundred million people are gone. Not dead, not missing in any way that search parties can solve. Just absent. Chairs still warm. Coffee still cooling. A boy’s pen still wet on the page, the ink line stopping mid-stroke as though the hand holding it simply ceased to exist.

The world that wakes up is quieter. Cleaner. The data is impossible to ignore: the air is measurably better. The oceans are healing. The forests are surging back to life with a speed that defies every model ever built. And the math connecting that recovery to the disappearances is almost perfect.

Almost beautiful, if you don’t think about whose kitchen table is empty tonight.

A journalist searches for her son in the only language she knows: data, patterns, the obsessive architecture of a spreadsheet that keeps expanding and never brings him home. A climate scientist holds proof that the planet is thriving and cannot publish it without handing the world a blueprint for the next atrocity. A pastor invents a comforting theology in the first hours of panic and watches it become a monster he can’t kill. And one man, the only person who stayed awake during those five hours, is becoming something that is no longer entirely human. A bridge to an intelligence that doesn’t hate humanity, doesn’t love it, and doesn’t distinguish between a person and a data point.
It will happen again. The only question is what could possibly stop it.

Five Hours is a novel about grief as infrastructure, memory as resistance, and the terrifying possibility that the Earth already knows exactly how to save itself. It just hasn’t decided whether we’re worth the cost. $0.99 on Kindle.

And then something went wrong.

Whether it was through mathematical probability, or divine intervention, Lance the LUV U-69 amorous companion droid has accidentally been downloaded with enough brainpower and free will to crack open the lid on a very dangerous can of worms.

Unless AWOL Retentions Agent Charlie Bear Claw can stop him.

In Book One of The Deilonium Trilogy, the primitive hunter with the troubled past stalks his high-tech prey on a secret mission. But their personal agendas soon become trivial in light of the unholy force they find undermining the fabric of the world. As the pair draws closer to their showdown, both man and robot come to realize they are ultimately at war with a common maniacal enemy. $2.99 on Kindle.

Lilly Feron never expected her quiet life running a wolf park in Utah to be upended by a single, dead animal. But when a wolf believed to be extinct with a spear tip lodged in its neck turns up on a highway, everything changes.

The weapon, made from Neanderthal bone only a few decades old, should be impossible. After all, these hominids vanished thirty-five thousand years ago.

She learns of a trapper who claims to have seen such a strange wolf, hidden deep in the Bitterroot Mountains. Was it the same animal?

Lilly and paleoanthropologist Austin Walker dig deeper, and uncover amazing truths about the existence of the last Neanderthals. Could they still be out there living in a shadowland?

As the mystery unfolds, they must wrestle with a gripping secret—one that forces them to question everything they thought they knew about history, humanity, and what lives in the wild. All before the authorities put an end to it.

The past isn’t gone. It’s waiting. And it’s about to make its presence known.

“INTO THE SHADOWLAND masterfully blends anthropological science with vivid storytelling, offering a gripping exploration of human resilience, culture, and belief in a forgotten world. With an archaeologist’s precision and a novelist’s imagination, J.M.G. Schmidt reconstructs an ancient way of life that feels startlingly real. Think Neanderthals were just grunting brutes? Think again. This fascinating journey into our deep past will challenge everything you thought you knew about our long-lost cousins.” — Patrick Keeney, Canadian author and journalist $0.99 on Kindle.

As Mars fights to define itself, Flip Buchanan learns that the hardest part of independence—personal or planetary—is figuring out what to do with it. $0.99 on Kindle.
