Reggie Hickson's unmentionables have never been so sore and yet sated. He survived his first week at Thistlewick School of Wizardcraft and Witchery. He aced the placement exams, bonded with four gorgeous monster girl cabinmates, and only nearly died from exhaustion a few times. Things are looking up. Just kidding. Everything's on fire.

Captain Hawke never dreamed his first command would be like this. The perfect genetics. That's what they said: that he was somehow a serendipitous match for the highly experimental serum that Star Force's most distinguished, top secret science team had developed. Even Admiral Markus Sloss signed off on the report. The goal is a noble one: to establish biological compatibility between Terrans and the many aliens that compose the ranks of Star Force and the member worlds of the Allied Planetary Confederation.

The Darkwood is ancient, filled to bursting with secrets: talking animals, trees with names and titles, and more magic than a mortal can possibly fathom, just for starters. It is but one of many such places. But the Big Bad Wolf only terrorizes the Darkwood these days. When a prophecy comes along that is grave enough to garner the Wolf's notice, he and his new companions set out on a quest—to wake, wed and dominate the Three Perfect Princesses, Snow White, Rapunzel, and Briar Rose—but he must face off against Prince Charming and his brothers in order to do so.

I stopped a demon-possessed warship and saved a kingdom. Surely a quiet semester at magic school isn't too much to ask? Apparently it is. A demon queen from my war days has started haunting my dreams, and she's got plans for the portal to hell sitting right under Stoneway Academy. The paladins say everything's fine. The headmistress says the ancient tree keeping the demons sealed is perfectly healthy. Meanwhile, I'm waking up smelling like brimstone and watching corruption spread through the school's roots.

The UEC has been fighting a losing battle against the demonic hordes, forced to surrender more ground every day. But aboard the U.S.S. Shotgun Opera, the Overmaiden—a sixth-generation Ghost AI—has just forged humanity’s perfect weapon and best hope: a supersoldier. The man he used to be is gone, lost with his family to demons on the mining world of Aonus. All that’s left is hate, rage, and unyielding power. Rip, crunch, gore, dismember—the unstoppable juggernaut will slaughter his way through Hell, driven by righteous fury and a singular drive.

Martin Smith has spent the last thirteen years as the world’s most overqualified home inspector. It’s a small price to pay to support his niece, Mira—a growing horse girl with an expensive appetite and a burning desire to race in the Maiden’s Derby. Martin is content to be the invisible support system in her shadow, until a mysterious scout notices that the scrappy single dad sees the track differently than anyone else.

After years as the Free States of Caldia's most lethal weapon, all I want is to study magic at Stoneway Academy and find something resembling a normal civilian life. The Great War against the Democratic Republic of Auropa has finally come to a ceasefire, but tensions haven't necessarily died down overnight.

Logan Morrison always fought for everything he had, but it never was much. Growing up truly alone did that to you. One day, when taking on an extra tutoring gig to help out a cute chick with a quirky name, she ends up bringing him back to her place. Cool, right? Well, the next morning, Logan wakes up in chains and comes to learn that Cherry Cola is one beautiful and unhinged monster girl member out of three in a small Fresco City witch coven. Their plans for him? Servitude.

I thought surviving the war was hard. Turns out, being a celebrity war hero at magic school comes with its own unique challenges.

I survived the war and my first term at magic school. How hard could meeting the parents be? Turns out when your girlfriends include a princess, a dragon-blooded noble, a monster hunter from a legendary family, and a demonic duchess, "meeting the family" involves a lot more than awkward small talk over dinner. But holiday drama takes a backseat when revolutionaries start bombing the capital of Umbrica.

"Pendant latin de "l'Iliade" et de "l'Odyssée", "l'Énéide" est l'épopée latine par excellence qui fit de Virgile (70 - 19 av. J.-C.) le plus grand poète latin de l'Antiquité. Ce long récit aux péripéties captivantes raconte les aventures du Troyen Énée, ancêtre mythique du peuple romain, depuis la guerre de Troie jusqu'à son installation victorieuse dans le Latium. L'épopée, notamment l'histoire d'amour entre Didon et Énée ou la descente aux enfers d'Énée pour y retrouver son père, inspira de nombreuses œuvres littéraires et artistiques à toutes les époques."

Aeneas, after many travails and adventures, including a love affair with Dido Queen of Carthage and a visit to the underworld to see his father, ends up in Italy.

My family has run Sugarville’s one and only B&B for years. Sure, it's a little rundown and the gardens are overgrown, but it’s still got what I like to call rustic charm.

Peter Busch-McGinley is a self-employed handyman in Max City. For the last eight years, life has been a downward spiral that left him nothing to show for his pain. But that's about to change. Pete is approached by the patron deity of the Fertile Valley and Mineral Village—the self-described Harvest Goddess. She reveals his destiny as her chosen one, which obviously throws him for a loop. As shocking as that is, it isn't nearly as surprising as what his childhood friend, Queenie Luna, reveals to him.

Dean Castle arrived at Evermoon Hollow with nothing but his truck, his toolbox, and a whole lot of guns. Now he's the sole human handyman in a survival commune filled with gorgeous vampire women.

Together, they open the very first massage inn and spa in all the land, and take on all the responsibilities that come with it. Turns out, it's a lot of work!

Magic is real, and Reggie Hickson just got invited to be a wizard school summer camp transfer. Reggie was a self-made businessman who'd pulled himself and his oddball dad out of poverty through sheer determination and the glory of YouTube tutorials. Pretty impressive, honestly. That was until a three-inch tall sprite emerged from his coffee mug and told him he was a wizard. Scratch that—a warlock. Apparently there's a difference, and that difference involves stuff we probably shouldn't go into in this good Christian blurb.

Garth had been the favorite for the number-one draft pick in the next season of the USA's top sport. His college career was supposed to end on a high note… but it didn't. Sabotaged in his final game, he found himself shut out of the Dungeon League of America, forced to retire his jersey in shame. With no other options, he leaned on his university degree and became a licensed psychiatrist and therapist. That should have been the end of his dungeon-crawling days. But then, a new dungeon appeared in his city.
