Synopsis

The Infinity Stones are not to be wielded lightly, as Steve Rogers discovers when he washes up on the shores of Westeros. In a world of swords and spears, what difference can one shield make?

Follow Steve as he makes his way across Planetos, starting in Westeros just before Robert’s Rebellion. You can expect wandering knight adventures, Steve doing Steve things when faced with injustice, and the inevitable consequences of setting a super soldier loose on a medieval battlefield.

Themes in this fiction: equality, right makes might, the difference one man can make, uplifting people and culture rather than technology.

Captain Henry Donnager expected a quiet career babysitting a dusty relic in Area 51. But when a test unlocks a portal to a world of knights and magic, he's thrust into command of Alpha Team, an elite unit tasked with exploration.

They join the local Adventurers Guild, seeking to unravel the secrets of this fantastical realm and the ancient gateway's creators. As their quests reveal the potent forces of magic, they inadvertently entangle in the volatile politics between local rivalling factions.

With American technology and ancient secrets in the balance, Henry's team navigates alliances and hostilities, enlisting local legends and air support in their quest. In a land where dragons loom, they discover that modern warfare's might—Hellfire missiles included—holds its own brand of magic.

Department of Otherworld Rescue [Military Isekai]

★ 4.71

ScottWarren

Each year, teens around the country are spirited away to other worlds to fight on their behalf. It is this department’s position that these events are nothing short of human trafficking and child-soldiering. We’ve been empowered to take all necessary action toward their recovery.

Cole had his entire career planned out. Another year in the Airborne, then Ranger School, then applying to Special Forces—until his fireteam was plucked from a war in Syria and thrust into a world of heart-eating demons with an endless appetite for GI innards. Suddenly, Russian mercs and loyalist fighters didn’t seem so bad.

Barely getting his squad to safety with the aid of an enigmatic government organization, Cole gets the opportunity to repay the favor by joining the Department of Otherworld Rescue. This elite cadre of attuned individuals is tasked with venturing to other worlds—dying worlds so desperate they’ve placed their last hopes in children stolen from Earth. But it’s not as simple as an air assault into enemy territory.

These myriad worlds run on strange rules enforced by vindictive gods and omniscient systems, and they’re filled with monsters, demons, and worse. But playing in their sandboxes lets Cole share in their rewards. Rewards that could see him peeling open a tank like a can of rations if he can adapt and overcome the challenges each new world brings.

The Acts of Androkles

★ 4.71

Ryan English

Elevator pitch: '300' meets 'Lone Wolf and Cub'. A retired veteran has to keep some orphans from being eaten by horrible monsters.

Androkles, son of Paramonos, spent twenty-five years in the world’s greatest army trying to earn enough money to buy back his good name. He’s battle-scarred, weary, and heartbroken after decades of watching dear friends die, but he survived. He’s ready to retire and be welcomed as a hero, finally able to see the reward he sacrificed so much to achieve.

There’s only one problem: his wife just fled civilization with all his hard-won savings. Now he must pursue her north, through desperate bandits, ravening beasts, and worse. But after he rescues a pair of orphans from starvation, he is faced with his most difficult challenge yet: a question that goes to the very heart of honor. The consequences might be deeper than he realizes, and it’s not just his life on the line…

This fiction page contains the professionally-published novel Obstacles as well as the two complete sequels, Doubts and Burdens. Any time skips are deliberate. Book title is in the chapter heading. Chapters labelled "2.1, 2.2, etc" are chapters that were not posted all at once.

Although the trilogy is complete, I'll return someday to write another book in this series, perhaps several. But for now, please take a look at my new fiction, The Land of Broken Roads. https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/69480/the-land-of-broken-roads

Also, my brother Miles has joined Royal Road for the first time and is posting his 4th novel here. It's very good. Please take a look: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/69512/bog-standard-isekai

If you are a publisher and would like to purchase the Acts of Androkles, please send me a DM and I'll have my agent contact you immediately.

I Became a Mother in Another World

Urmie

“9… 8…. 7… 6…. 5…. 4…. 3…. 2… 1!”

She stepped forward. Throwing a “SEE YOU IN A FEW HOURS!” in the loudest voice she could manage towards the pilot, she ran towards the edge and jumped, unaware of what a big, fat lie those words would turn out to be.

— — —

Samaya Dhar, codename Maya, was a Special Agent of the Third Eye Agency, an intelligence agency that operates worldwide to ensure peace and order, no matter the means. On a mission, she finds herself transported to a strange and unfamiliar world.

First order of things. Steal some appropriate clothes.

Second order of things. Find out where you are.

Third order of things. Try to find …. Wait, is that a half-dead child in the alleyway? What the heck?

The boy looks on the verge of death. She cannot bring herself to leave the child alone. It’s fine. She will still find a way back. She will still go back home. She will just take the little bun with her.

Or so she thought until the little bun caught the eyes of some very important people.

Turns out, the little bun is a Prince. And his father wants him at the Palace. But hell would freeze over before Samaya let anyone take her child from her.

This is the story of a woman who is just trying to protect her found family while looking for a way home and ends up being entangled in a big web of politics, harem intrigue, assassination plots, and one infuriating man who is at the center of it all.

Tom Writing Quietly

The audiobook for Book 1 is available on Audible, the eBook is available on Kindle Unlimited and Amazon, and the paperback can be ordered nearly anywhere books are sold, probably even at your favorite local bookshop. Book 2 is available for pre-order (and will stub in late July). Book 3 starts here if you want to dive right in.

In a militaristic empire where war mages are prized and steam knights celebrated, Mikolai reluctantly signed up to be a steam suit mechanic to avoid conscription into the regular infantry. In this world, magical talent is rare, precious, and a pathway into the nobility. But Mikolai is a peasant from a small farming village with simple ambitions: Stay alive and do the right thing.

When an unfortunate accident leads to Mikolai's assignment to a special task force commanded by the notorious war mage Ognyan Spitignov, surviving with a clean conscience becomes very difficult. Ognyan's mission: To stamp out resistance to imperial rule in newly-conquered territory. However, Mikolai will try everything in his power to make the best of a bad situation - and he has more power than he realizes.

Mikolai's journey will take him through the horrors of war and the grinding clash between empires. Can he find his feet fast enough to stand up against a cruel world? Can he save himself and his friends from the enemy - and from the Imperial Army itself? And will he be able to live with himself afterwards?

Virtuous Sons: A Greco Roman Xianxia

Ya Boy

The saying goes that when a man is born the Fates weave his destiny and swaddle him in it. Then one day the man dies, and the swaddle becomes a shroud. Heaven moves on.

It is audacity to question the Fates. Olympus is Olympus. The land of men is the land of men. To transgress that, to cross the line of divinity and scale Olympus Mons? To defy the Fates and cast off their threads?

That is hubris. It’s a mark that every philosopher bears plainly on their soul.
