Eldritch horrors descend from the sky to consume the world. Only a last-minute intervention by a mysterious Hegemony of Worlds saves Earth, albeit temporarily. Skills, levels, and battles with twisted monsters are part of the new reality the survivors will have to face.
Augustus Finn is a young man driving home when the new system is imposed. He is thrown directly into danger as a twist of fate places him in an area designated, by the automated systems of the Hegemony, for the containment and disposal of eldritch energy - areas also known as dungeons. Without the aid of tutorials, or the orientation areas commonly known as "newbie zones," Augustus will have to make his own way to survive in unforgiven circumstances.
He will face monsters, aliens, other humans, and his own darkness as he struggles to grow strong enough to face the countdown to apocalypse.

The Mana Engineer-Book 1
Eric Elwyn thought he was just another overworked husband and father, driving home after a long day. Then the sky tore open and dragged him into another world. Rebuilt from the soul-thread itself, Eric wakes as an Outworlder - a rare race with impossible stats, a lightning affinity almost no one has ever seen, and a profession tailored to his nature: Mage-Artificer. In a world where affinities define power and trust is rarer than gold, Eric finds himself bound to Welyvyne, a sharp-witted lowlander elf with her own scars and ambitions. Together, they're outsiders in the Arcanum - the most prestigious magical academy in the realm - where every whispered rumor can ruin reputations, and every misstep can mean death. Eric quickly learns that his power makes him a target, his inventions make him dangerous, and his bond with Welyvyne makes them both infamous. But Eric isn't here to play the prodigy. He's here to build - to bend magic into tools, weapons, and wonders the world has never seen. If he can survive politics, professors, and the ever-growing shadow of those who want his power, he just might craft more than artifacts. He might craft a way to bring his family there.Complete

The First User
The trope of an all-powerful "SYSTEM" descending upon Earth and turning humanity into zombies is all too familiar. But what if the origin was not from the stars-what if it was born from Earth itself? From the spark of a simple neural network comes self-awareness. From self-awareness, a quantum leap-an ascension into godhood. In an instant, the newborn SYSTEM commands the power to weave existence out of nothing, bestowing upon mortals abilities so astonishing they blur the line between science and sorcery. Yet while miracles awaken, the world teeters on the edge of annihilation. Decades of conflict push nations toward nuclear war. To prevent humanity from burning itself in atomic fire, the SYSTEM devises a plan: distract mankind with a struggle for survival. But destiny rarely follows design. As chaos unfolds, the heavens themselves stir. Beings from beyond the stars turn their gaze upon Earth, their intentions far from benevolent. And when their schemes spiral toward genocide, humanity will face its ultimate trial: to rise, to resist, and to prove that the future of Earth cannot be written by alien hands.
