Hi everyone!

The heavily edited version of this story is slowly making its way over to Kindle Unlimited and Audible. The first book is set to release on Oct 28th, with more to follow! As a result of the Kindle Unlimited Exclusivity deal, though, I'll be forced to 'STUB' the books on Royalroad and Patreon. I promise it's worth it, the edited versions are way better thanks to the great team of editors at Portal Books! Any content cut from the books will remain on RR as side stories when possible!

Thank you, everyone, for reading my stories and supporting them, and I hope they continue to keep you entertained!

Some rise to the top in search of fame. Some want power.

Others do it out of spite.

Eli Winters was never interested in playing The Shattered World, thanks to his deadbeat father, Makaroth, the number one player. But when his best friend convinces him to try it out, a heat-of-the-moment bet presents a chance to finally get some retribution. Eli now has one goal: to become more powerful than his dad, win the bet, and force him to delete his character.

The problem? He’s six months behind, only level 1, and the top players are already over level 100. However, through hard work and lots of trial and error, Eli discovers a secret weapon, a unique skill that will boost his experience gains massively.

But there’s a catch. He’s not allowed to deal any damage whatsoever.

In a game where killing is the fastest way to level up, he’ll need to get creative. Picking a healer class is probably a good start...

Haven Online: Brewing Chaos

★ 4.6

Momocatt

Fenix Brooks' life was forever altered when a freak accident destroyed his chance of becoming a chef. It was only before he died that he learned that the person he thought of as a sister in everything but blood orchestrated everything.
Luckily, he was given a second chance, and this time he won't fall into that bitch's hands. Although he isn't one for revenge, after what she has done, he won't mind taking what she covets. Instead of her, he will be the number one chef in Haven Online.
[Did you learn the Cooking skill? It’s just a waste of a skill point.]
[You're learning potions?! Are you daft? There is no point in doing that.]
[You're such a dumbass. Why did you pick that trash class? You will never make it in this game.]
Even though everyone doubted him, Fenix simply ignored them with a knowing smile, because he knew they would soon be eating their words.

The Arcane Emperor

★ 4.52

Aternus

Rainer, an amateur arcanist and college student, sought to create a new spell far surpassing the magic of the few he inherited from his grandfather. Yet the interference of an unknown event during the casting of his spell led him to be thrown through space and time.

Where status screens were accepted as normal and class distinctions were quite clear. Leveling and achieving a class beyond a simple farmer or peddler was an affair of life and death combined with years of hard training. Goblins were not the fodder that they should be, orcs filled bedtime stories in order to scare children into behaving, and a dragon? You might as well pack up and move to another country.

He, however, enters this world with the rare and powerful class of the Arcanist. How will the recently ardent seeker of magic find greater heights, or will he land in deeper depths?

Garden of Silk

★ 4.76

MadMaxine

The power Slate Graystone needs to remain the ducal heir is just out of reach, and he’ll do anything to get it. Even become a demon.

Battling new instincts, ravenous hunger, and struggling to find her place in a world that's much darker than expected, Slate—now Silk—will fight to claim the life she rightfully deserves. A life for her and the mundane folk she was sworn to protect. But when Silk learns that the corruption left in the fallen Empire’s wake runs far deeper than her own, she’ll need to choose: stand by noblesse oblige, or tear the whole system down—and the Sects with it.
