Monogatari
What happens when the mundane world you despise suddenly shatters around you? Kitsuka hates his predictable college life, the fake smiles, meaningless friendships, and endless routine. But when mysterious fighters tear through his classroom ceiling and a faceless entity drags him into another world, his boring existence becomes the least of his problems. Waking up in a strange realm with impossible skies and deadly creatures, Kitsuka discovers something has changed within him. When he should have died, he didn't. When he should have been weak, he wasn't. As his friends lie unconscious in a cave, Kitsuka faces a choice that will define who he becomes in this new world: cling to his past self, or embrace the darkness that whispers of power and freedom. Sometimes the monster you become is exactly what you needed to be. A dark psychological fantasy about transformation, isolation, and the price of power.

A Blind Hope: Song of the Bakekujira
A region on the fringes of an Dynasty undergoing a centuries long war against the forces of demons and abominations is slowly dying a somber and quiet death. A curse has surely fallen upon the people but none are sure how to begin to solve it. None except a visitor from a far off land wielding six swords with a blindfold over eyes that can no longer see. He claims that the truth of the curse that falls upon the land is in reality, the workings of a great beast colloquially called a Kaiju. Beasts so great in power and magnitude they affect the world around them simply by existing. Claiming to be a Kaiju Slayer, the people suffering from the curse have little hope but to put their trust into this man as he goes to gather allies to aid him in his quest to slay this Kaiju, though questions linger in the mind of many. Who is this man really, why does he hunt Kaiju with such a disadvantage against them, and what does he truly want with a beast of such strength and power?

Avarice Blacksteel Book 2
Most of us long to "Be" but when the path gets too costly, or steep, we take solace in what we "Have." Remove the trappings of what we own and then what is the sum of us? They were the survivors, abandoned by the allies who swore to protect, in the ultimate gesture of greed and betrayal. Their world plunged into annihilation and chaos. With the passage of years in this blighted landscape order was established anew. Those who had been anonymous before the war found their will to rule, those who had experienced the comforts and ease of western life, thrust into darkness and despair. This brutal conflict had awoken those long sleeping, those who had ceased to care, those of immense power, the ones entrusted with the safe keeping of the often volatile mankind. Although their parallel world too was at risk, lethargy and arrogance ruled them. Against the backdrop of this savage landscape the saga of three such tribes of survivors unfold, and the unwitting chosen among them. One tribe sought to prosper via savagery, one by organized military might, and the other who ruled with no more than fairness and love. Three tribes thrown together, competing for the limited resources to survive, in a world teetering on the brink of total decimation. Driven by human avarice.Complete
Stigma: The Free City (BOOK II)

Without warning, he is forced to swallow an unknown, violet elixir and is swept into the night, his fate sealed by hands once meant to protect him. What is the true nature of the curse that froze his mother in time? What secrets caused his father to change, and at what cost?
