Synopsis

(This story is now complete)

Book Five: Versatile Wizard began on 2/17/23 after Book Four: Dynamo concluded.

Cover by Jack of Hearts! He did great work!

Participant in the April/2023 and Nov/2023 Writathon challenges!

—————

The last of the soul-shards of Aelryinth is cut free, and is drawn through astral space to a new realm… one with no exposure to the gods, powers, and system of the Power of Ten at all.

It is a world of Magery, where Elements of Magic is the science, the power is in people, and humanity dwells alongside countless magical creatures who actively contest the world with them… yet is still remarkably similar to our own in many ways.

Shard Zeben will have to hit the ground running and make some major adjustments in a gamer’s outlook as she introduces the mages of this world to what it means to be a truly versatile wizard… and to bring the Light of Heaven to a world that has no such thing!

Ebooks in the Power of Ten Series (Kindle): Power of Ten: Series Page for the First Day, the First Week, and the First Month!

Based on, but not set in, the world of, the Chinese Webnovel Versatile Mage. The magic system is a guideline, and gets modified a great deal and fleshed-out for completion, because wizards are total geeks about that stuff and it’s what they do.

No smut, no harem, sex is offscreen, profanity is mild. There’ll be occasional numbers, occasional Assays of progress, and a lot of trying to work out how the magic is actually functioning.

Markets and Multiverses (A Serial Transmigration LitRPG)

★ 4.58

acaswell

When Isabelle and her new friends are dumped into the world of transmigrators, at first it seems like a blessing. Their new status grants them the ability to visit the myriad worlds of the multiverse, grow stronger, and live practically forever, as long as they don’t make a mistake and permanently die. Every world has its own unique aspects, different magic systems to learn and use, and a myriad of interesting things to explore and discover. Each lifetime is unique, and no two worlds are the same.

However, between each life Isabelle and her friends must return to the Market. The place between lives, where transmigrators used to trade Items and Abilities and grow their power. Now, it is ruined. A desiccated shell of the most powerful civilization to exist in the multiverse, with its inhabitants slaughtered by unknown forces. If Isabelle and her friends wish to avoid the same fate, they must grow fast enough to avoid permanent death.

Note: this chapter is only posted on Royalroad, Scribblehub, and Patreon. If it is anywhere else, it has been posted there without my permission.

What to expect: This is a somewhat slower-paced serial-transmigration story, centered around the adventures of the main character and her friends through various worlds in the multiverse. I want each world to feel like a complete story, so expect the story to take a little longer in each world than some other stories in the serial transmigration genre.

A Budding Scientist in a Fantasy World (Vol 3 [Up to Chapter 189] stubbing Dec 19th)

★ 4.56

acaswell

Alice is a girl who loves science and lives on Earth. Then, suddenly, she was punted into another dimension. A dimension where magic and monsters roam the land, and, for some reason, a System keeps dinging at her and telling her that her stats and levels are increasing. As someone who loves exploring mysteries, Alice is determined to get to the bottom of this mystery. After all, everything has to have a ‘cause,’ including the System, right?

(This story is also posted on Royalroad. If you see this story anywhere besides Royalroad, Scribblehub, KU, or Patreon it has been stolen).

What to expect: This story is going to be a LitRPG set in a fantasy world. However, unlike many LitRPG’s, the system has both a definite beginning and definite limits to what it is able to accomplish – rather than a singularly omnipotent, omniscient being that is tied to the laws of the world, the way systems are usually presented in LitRPG’s, the system is close to both, but has definite limits and rules which it operates by.

Note: the rest of volume 1 has been taken down, due to the requirements for the KU program. You can buy the e-book for volume 1 of Budding Scientist using the link below.

The Devil’s Foundry

★ 4.64

Argentorum

How I learned to stop worrying and solve my problems with demons until demons stopped solving my problems.

A snarky villain and her heroic nemesis blow themselves up and land on a fantasy world. They find themselves faced with two prospects: learn to cooperate and respect someone they've fought against for years, or be swept away by the powers that be.

Because Pride always comes before the fall.

A Tyrant, Sort Of [LitRPG, Isekai, Dragon MC]

★ 4.6

farawaymuse

Sable didn’t know what she had expected from the afterlife, but turning into a giant flying lizard hadn’t been it.

And sure, she’s been thrust into a magic-crammed fantasy world with an obscenely powerful body, but things aren’t all great, here. There’s hordes of orcs to the north, an immortal legion of undead to the south, and fourteen human kingdoms who want the first dragon in centuries to be offed sooner than yesterday—except they’re too busy warring with each other to spare the resources.

Good for her?

And what’s up with the [Levels], [Classes], and [Skills] stuff? Specifically, her [Hoard] and [Notoriety] stats. She gets stronger the more gold she has? The more people are terrified of her? No wonder the human kingdoms want her head on a spike, with motivations like those. Dragons in the past must have been seriously unsavory sorts. Maybe she can find less … evil … ways to progress?

What are the odds taxes and propaganda can get her where she needs to be? Protection in exchange for tithes, and campaigns to make her seem scarier than she is?

That would make her a politician, wouldn’t it? A giant flying lizard politician.

What a headache.

Asheron’s Fall: The Power of Ten, Book Six

RE Druin

Finished the Royal Road Writathon Challenge for April and November 2024, and April 2025!

This story is complete at 518 chapters, ending May 1, 2025.

The sixth of Aelryinth's soul shards is floating free, being brought down and into another world where the Power of Ten doesn't exist... but the magic there is changing, the world is in flux, and for some reason, an experienced gamer might just fit right in with the natives and strange magic of this place.

A story derived from much of (but not all!) the rich lore and history of the Asheron's Call game. Callouts to all my former gamer friends and Allegiance members on Leafcull! We take up the story when the servers collapsed and the world went down, and what exactly happened after that?...

Beneath the Dragoneye Moons

★ 4.5

Selkie

Winner of the 2021 Stabby Award!

Elaine is ripped from this world to Pallos, a land of unlimited possibilities made real by a grand System governing classes, skills, and magic.

An ideal society? What is this, a fantasy novel?

Adventures? Right this way!

A Grand quest? Nah.

Friends and loot? Heck yes!

Humans are the top dog? Nope, dinosaur food.

Healing and fighting? Well, everything is trying to eat her.

Join Elaine as she travels around Pallos, discovering all the wonders and mysteries of the world, trying to find a place where she belongs, hunting those elusive mangos, all while the ominous Dragoneye Moons watch her every move.

Hey! Beneath the Dragoneye Moons is my first writing effort, so please be kind, but don’t hesitate to point out the flaws.

The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but it gets there!

I’m going to be posting M-W-F

I do know how the story ends, and I promise if it ever gets dropped, or I stop doing this, I will post the ending. There will be no random “this is the last chapter” out of the blue.

Wraithwood Botanist

★ 4.57

Little Lynx

Book 1 on Kindle Unlimited and Audible! Get it here -> Kindle and Audible

Mira is determined to be a botanist—no matter how dangerous or violent it may become.

Mira made two requests upon entering the multiverse: a botany class to further her research and to be dropped off in an isolated forest far from the violent god-rearing system BS going on. She was granted both—but not in the way she expected. The system abandoned her in a hellishly dangerous forest—where she earned a rare class that excelled at killing things.
