Summary

A physics student's talents are put to the test when he's transported to a world of magic and alchemical mysteries in the first book of a new fantasy series.
 
Fact one: Edwin Maxlin has fallen out of the sky and landed in a strange forest. Fact two: messages keep appearing in his line of vision, informing him that he has leveled up in various Skills—including some truly thrilling abilities such as Walking and Breathing. Fact three: this is most definitely not Earth.
 
Now Edwin, one-time student of material physics, must make his way through an unknown world, collecting Skills, upgrading his Class, embarking on life Paths, and most importantly, staying alive. But surviving in the land of Joriah isn't as simple as increasing mana and learning how to become a Firestarter.
 
Edwin soon finds himself going toe-to-toe with an angry clan of dwarves and their even more disgruntled ruler, Lord S'fashkchlil. It will take all of Edwin's wit, ingenuity, mathematical know-how, and charm to form new alliances, navigate a complicated political landscape, and keep from getting enslaved by Clan Blackstone. Fortunately, his otherworldly expertise is even more valuable than Edwin realizes . . .
 
Filled with humor, adventure, and unforgettable characters, The Way Ahead is a must-read for fans of epic fantasy, role-playing games, and the scientific method.
 
The first volume of the hit LitRPG fantasy series—with more than three million views on Royal Road—now available on Audible and wherever ebooks are sold!
Available since: 04/19/2022.
Print length: 390 pages.

    Midway through their cruise, the minesweeper collides with an ancient alien wreck, ripping the sides off the starship. Jack’s team of bots help seal the combined wreck to prevent air loss. Ghost, a nanolife form from the alien wreck, provides assistance.
    Jack and his girlfriend, Sofia, are the only survivors, and air, food, and supplies are critical.
    The countdown of days to survive is ticking.
    No wonder the Royal Family are angry.

    Supernatural meets The Walking Dead in this retelling of Lucifer's Fall dark fantasy romance. 
    WE BELIEVED THE APOCALYPSE WAS THE END. WE WERE DEAD WRONG. THE WAR FOR MANKIND HAS ONLY JUST BEGUN. 
    Five months ago, we won the battle for New York City, but the streets are once again overrun with the Damned, the zombie-like creatures carrying the deadly virus meant to wipe-out the world’s population. Except this time, they have evolved. They are no longer the mindless husks left behind by the infection. 
    Hungry, depleted of resources, and believing Mikha’el and his legion of angelic warriors have forsaken us, Jax and I lead a group of survivors to Albany in search of The Sanctuary, a community that promises protection and the hope for a new future. 
    But things quickly tip south when our group is ambushed by a brand-new enemy, and Jax and I are once again thrust into the fight to save humanity. 
    We may have defeated three of the four Horsemen and delayed Samael’s escape from his fiery prison, but Beleth, the Horseman of Death and the Devil’s mightiest lieutenant, is still at large, and he’s amassing an army far more dangerous than anything we could have conceived. 
    With a bounty on my back and a cadre of holy assassins on my tail, Jax and I are running out of time. We must collect all four Creation Stones and close the Gates before Samael escapes Hell and completely rips open the veil between our worlds, obliterating what remains of Earth’s last survivors.
