Shoda Yuuto lived a peaceful life. He's what you call an Otaku and he was a major Otaku geek at that. His favorite type of anime and manga was fantasy. One day, Yuuto was walking in the city while looking at some updates of his anime and manga until he was hit by a truck. Yuuto thought he was done for and complained about missing out on new anime episodes and manga chapters. That is until he woke up in some kind of room. He thought that this was heaven until a Menu screen showed up in front of him. He was curious so he looked through the menu and saw that he was known as a Professional Magician or Magic user. He was excited because he found out that he was sent to another world. The only problem with that is when he saw all the magic spells he could use, he didn't find any combat magic spells like [Wind Cutter] or [Fireball]. He then found out that he was a pro at all magic spells except anything offensive. How will Yuuto live out his new life as a magic user when he can't use any offensive magic spells?

Like a phoenix, they arose. From the ashes of a world burnt by massive nuclear holocaust and frozen by a millennia of nuclear winter. They are the Fisted Races and they struggle against the tattered remnant of Humanity for what little resources are left on a battered Earth. Ryon, Tigris, Kanid and Pantor; all equally powerful in skill and cunning. And in their hatred of the human race that nearly destroyed the world with the Great Burn. But now an even greater power in the south was rising that threatened Fisted and Humans alike. Could they somehow put the bloodshed and horror of their history behind them and stand together against it? Because if they didn't, not only would Humanity and the Fisted die, but so would every living thing on the planet!

They buried him with a broken heart, unable to go on after his wife of 50 years passed away from cancer. Then they dug him up 300 years later, gave him a new body, new abilities and made him fight in a war to defeat the Velkin, a race of terrible alien invaders. He helped the Risen destroy the Velkin armies, defeat their Fleet Master and obliterate their massive siphon before it could drain the Earth of its vital goa. But the war didn't end there. It was just beginning. The sequel to Risen, Risen: Darklight is the second book in the Risen saga as it follows juggernaut Max Niekro in his quest to defeat the Velkin and save the Earth.

Imagine living a full life, dying months after your beloved wife passes and being buried. Only to wake up 300 years later, called out of the grave to fight a final war against an alien invasion. Join Max Niekro, formerly living and now Risen as he deals with this reality as the forces of Earth, both living and dead, are marshalled in a last ditch effort to save the world. **cover by hellvis

Odashen. Kamdemahn. Giant's Bane. Oldest One. On the worlds of the Avatar Alliance I am called many names and I am considered many things. Some see me as a holy warrior with a purpose so powerful, not even Death can stop me. Others think me a tormented wanderer, driven mad by a horrible fate and left to travel the wastes for eternity. Yet others see me as a soulless creature of otherworldly vengeance, returning from the grave to wreak havoc on my enemies. From my point of view, I am ALL of these things. Yet, I am none of them. My name is Max Niekro and I am Risen. I have been summoned back from the grave for one purpose and one purpose alone. I'm here to kill Velkin. Join the Risen juggernaut in this sequel to Risen: Darklight and the third book in the Risen saga as he continues his quest to defend Earth and the living of the galaxy by taking his war to the stars, where he will face even greater challenges to his effort to rid the universe of the rapacious Velkin, a giant alien race bent on consuming every living sentient being they find before sucking out their home world's life force.

Earth has made first contact with an alien race. At the historic first meeting, an ambush put peace for humanity out of reach. Colonel Kyle Martin was there that day. It was his leadership and the bravery of his marines that saved what little hope mankind had. When Earth was threatened with invasion, Martin again felt the weight of war pressing down on him. Known as the Butcher of Hyderabad for his decisions in the Indian War, Martin seemed a poor choice to guard the peace but the perfect man to organize the forces of Earth to defend itself from the coming alien scourge. With a select team of humans and a few allies among the alien races, Martin is tasked with not only defeating the invading armada, but with making sure that Earth is kept free from any alien domination. Faced with impossible odds against an overwhelming foe with advanced technology, it is only a secret about Earth itself that gives Martin the glimmer of hope to succeed. With his “lucky charm” Ramirez, his go-to girl Kitch, and an unshakable Sergeant Major, Martin rolls the die time after time in audacious gambles with the stakes being nothing less than the survival of the human race. Face-paced action awaits in this military sci-fi adventure.
