The Way Ahead 4 - A LitRPG Adventure

NorskDaedalus, England

Summary

As he navigates a strange new world, Edwin weighs forming alliances and deciding who to trust, in the fourth book of this smart, entertaining fantasy series.
Ever since Edwin Maxlin literally fell out of the sky and landed in Joriah, life has been a little bit complicated. For one thing, he's adapting to a new world that's nothing like Earth. For another, he's learning magic, leveling up skills, and adjusting his scientific knowledge to a whole new set of natural rules. Plus, he's an outsider maneuvering the dangerous politics of an empire he knows zilch about. No wonder he hasn't had much time to rest.
Having devoted himself to training and studying (when he's not building incredible new inventions!), Edwin's finally starting to get somewhat of a handle on all his new abilities—with the help of fellow adventurer Lefi and water naiad Inion. But as his quest for improvement brings him closer to the mysterious and mystically powerful Rillah, he's faced with a new set of obstacles. Because in a world where his very existence could make him a target, Edwin must be very careful about who he lets get close . . .
Effortlessly combining elements of high fantasy, character-driven storytelling, and the scientific method, The Way Ahead 4 is the fun, funny, and fantastically addictive next chapter of a remarkable quest.
The fourth volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with more than 3.5 million views on Royal Road—now available on Audible and wherever ebooks are sold!

Rigorously researched, historical facts are woven into a narrative that makes clear the motivations and emotions of the pioneers. Behind this, however, there is always the question of what the retrospective experience of past events means for the time travelers.

Big Bossy Trouble

Lilian Monroe

Billionaire. CEO. Single dad. And for the next seven days, this arrogant hunk is going to be my boss. 
 
 
 
Easy, right? All I have to do is be a good nanny to Leif Sorensen's adorable, hell-raising, ballet-loving daughter. Keep my head down, my hands to myself, and forget about this silly crush I've been nursing for the past six years. 
 
 
 
So he's big, and blond, and he stars in all my not-so-innocent "Hot Viking Ravages Innocent Maiden" fantasies? Who cares? Certainly not me. Nope. 
 
 
 
My week-long contract is my ticket out of trouble, and I'm not going to mess it up. This payday is about to solve a lot of my problems. Then I'll move on. 
 
 
 
Except . . . Leif has other ideas. Like, for example, when he tugs me into a spare room and demonstrates how similar his fantasies are to mine. It's purely intellectual, of course. We're just comparing notes. 
 
 
 
But when my contract is over, I realize that I might have gotten myself into trouble instead of out of it. See, I've gone and fallen head over heels for my billionaire boss. And I do it before I realize what he's hiding from me . . . Oh—then I find out I'm pregnant. 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.

The Battle Of The Monsters

Morgan Robertson

A microscopic war rages beneath the skin—and one tiny creature is caught in the crossfire. 
In this darkly whimsical and surprisingly profound tale from visionary author Morgan Robertson (Futility, or the Wreck of the Titan), a cholera bacillus—elegant, peaceful, and just trying to mind his own business—finds himself swept into a surreal and deadly war inside a human bloodstream. What begins as a strange new environment quickly turns into a battlefield teeming with monstrous dog-headed rabies microbes, shapeshifting white blood cells, and strange brown invaders from an unknown realm. 
Told from the point of view of a single bewildered microbe, The Battle of the Monsters is both a vivid science fantasy and a sharp allegory about fear, identity, and the violence of prejudice. Combining early 20th-century science with a fantastical narrative voice, Robertson paints a microscopic epic that feels as timely today as it was imaginative then. 
Perfect for fans of Fantastic Voyage, Gulliver’s Travels, or satirical speculative fiction, this unique novella is brought to life with wit and nuance by narrator Richard Stibbard.
