Aces High (Reality Benders Book #6): LitRPG Series

To be on a starship that’s just sustained serious damage in a space battle including losing its thrusters and find yourself in a totally different galaxy... You might think that would be cause for panic or, at the very least, despondency, right? Not at all! Gnat maintains optimism, gradually gets his space frigate back in working order and even finds upsides to what happened.

On top of that, there's never a dull moment – both in the virtual game and the real world Gnat finds himself at the very epicenter of the great space-faring races’ interests, though he does not understand why they’re paying him such close attention. And add to that the fact that humanity's Geckho suzerains are also in a tight spot and demanding all their vassals institute a military draft then send their assembled forces out to fight a distant space war.

Will Gnat be able to play his part in this complicated diplomatic party with the future of the entire human race at stake? Find out in Book Six of Reality Benders!

Bio Dungeon: Symbiote (The Body's Dungeon Book 1)

In the icy north exists a young orphan, and a war on a microscopic scale.

Marstin Hardgrove was orphaned at a young age, forced to live on the streets, and needed to turn to thievery to survive. When a special job assigned to him by the Thieves’ Guild went awry, the guild leadership punished him with a beating, compelled him to eat dirt and rocks to soothe his hunger, and left him to die in an abandoned mine. Unbeknownst to the young thief, when he was forced to eat that handful of dirt and rocks…he also ended up swallowing a tiny dungeon crystal.

Thrown into a highly unusual world filled with cells, bacteria, and other dangerous pathogens, the tiny dungeon crystal is, at first, confused by his surroundings. After seeing how the different complex systems of the body work together, the crystal is quickly fascinated; it isn’t long before he decides that, instead of trying to escape, he wants the body for himself. He wants to possess the living being for his own use as a crystal, wholly unlike anything the world has ever seen before.

To get to that point, however, the fledgling dungeon crystal has to learn how to survive against the different enemies trying to destroy him. Not only will he have to defeat the hostile pathogens standing in the way of his complete domination; but also, as a foreign invader to the body, himself, Marstin’s natural immune system sees the crystal as a threat. The only way to survive is to create his own immune cell defenders, and to place traps to prevent anything from reaching his dungeon crystal. In short: He has to turn the body into a dungeon.

But will his new Bio Dungeon be enough to keep him – and the body he wants to possess – alive?

Contains LitRPG/GameLit elements, such as character progression, statistics, and resource management. Also contains an in-depth, science-based portrayal of how the immune system responds to foreign pathogens via different white blood cells and other microscopic protectors. No harems, sexual content, or foul language.

Slater must quickly adapt to his new existence before raiders, alien armies, and mysterious forces seek to destroy him for a second and final time.

Can of Worms (Apocalypse Gates Author's Cut Book 6)

After making several profitable deals, it was time to go back through the Twurgh Gate and return to Earth. Alvin and Gothy had been surprised to learn that the newest member of their harem was a princess, but neither was willing to leave Desiree behind.

Once they were back on Earth, Alvin proposed a new destination, much to the amusement of his companions. They all agreed and went south out of Colorado, into New Mexico. The road south led them back to old friends in new places; Johnny, the native shaman from Bridgeport, was in Ignacio and in desperate need of help.

Strapping on their boots and loading their guns, the slightly demented (but equally fun) group got ready for one of the biggest can of worms they had opened so far.

Pearl of the South (World of the Changed Book #2): LitRPG Series

Mark Derwin, the most advanced player through the initial period of the game, knew all too well that his level was no advantage.

But not everyone was willing to bend the knee before alien intelligence. In fact, some had begun to fight back against the game.

Blood. Betrayal. Players. Levels. Artificial Intelligence. Death. Psychology.

Detective Malone enters Game World because his friend Diageo has been murdered. Now it’s humans against machines against artificial life. And now you’ve been given access. Can any player win? Can you win?

NOTE: This story contains LitRPG / GameLit elements such as statistics, leveling and some crafting. Furthermore, this story isn’t “light” or “simple” like some milquetoast romance. You must play to win.

CONTENT WARNING: This book contains references to human sacrifice, loss of humanity, machine supremacy, mental breakdown, artificial intelligence trauma, alcohol, Nordic music, mathematics, syringes, dental implants, megalomania, financial inequality, backdoor code hacking, sexualization of death, Canada and God Mode. You’ve been provided with fair warning.

READ AT YOUR OWN RISK: This book isn’t for children or even young adults. It includes adult language (strong profanity) and will likely offend those who are kind-hearted and gentle-of-spirit. Mature readers only.

My Opinion: 46 pages, $0.99, Available On Kindle Unlimited

This is a mess. There’s no real story as much as blocks of text that look like code notes, or a chat room transcription. There are some thrown in stat and skill increases in there, but they don’t have a reference and much like the rest of the super short text, just kinda exist. I regretted picking this up even as a KU read. 

Score: 4 out of 10
