Wie zäh muss man sein, um den Stürmen des Lebens zu trotzen? Was tun, wenn alles, für das man so lange und so hart gearbeitet hat, in nur einer Stunde in sich zusammenfällt? Wenn das Leben einen solchen Schicksalsschlag bereithält, ist die Verzweiflung vermutlich groß — selbst wenn es sich nur um ein virtuelles Leben handelt. Für den Zwerg namens Krähe ist das virtuelle Leben genauso wichtig wie die Realität. In diesem Spiel steckt eine tiefere Bedeutung, die vorläufig nur dem Helden bekannt ist; alle anderen können nur raten.

Jon's days are numbered. The mine will consume his life any day. Will this offer to farm inside a game be any better? He wants nothing but to farm in the real world, and he's given that chance in a VRMMORPG. With a new lease on life, he accepts it. But when he's robbed of his only tool to farm sufficient quota, he has no other option but to enter the deadliest forest of the region and die at the hands of a druid to obtain a skill that will help him reach his goals. However, death awaits at every step in the forest, and he can't die more than thrice. What will Jon do?

The Galactic Consensus arrived on ships as large as skyscrapers, crafted from glittering alloys that no human scientist could even begin to understand. They followed the trail of century-old television transmissions to welcome us into the galactic community...only to recoil in horror at what they found.

Der alte Militärveteran Volper hatte keine Ahnung, was ihn erwarten würde, als er die virtuelle Welt von Alpha Rom betrat. Aber jetzt muss er feststellen, dass es sich gar nicht um ein Spiel handelt.

Volper musste sich auch mit einer Gruppe von Teenagern arrangieren und hat es geschafft, sie zu einer tödlichen Kampftruppe auszubilden.

Free from the prison of her birth, Gell the Jellyfae, a dungeon-mob turned into a player, must discover how she can protect herself from a world she cannot know.

It began with a blinding light, a divine revelation from a mysterious intelligence that called itself VALIS. And with that, the fabric of reality was ripped open and laid bare so that anything seemed possible, but nothing seemed quite right. Part science fiction, part theological detective story...

In the wake of Donnyton's challenge, Randidly makes preparations for his planet's future. All his cunning and crafting ingenuity flow into Kharon, the mechanical city. All his knowledge of metallurgy, engraving, and the System will shape this grand project. And if his theory proves true, the result will be much more alchemy than mechanism. While Randidly Ghosthound has plans, so does the Nexus. During his next Judgement, an extra consequence is applied; he is kidnapped from Earth and taken to the outer reaches of the Nexus proper.

Heute entscheidet oft kein Mensch mehr, ob du zu einem Gespräch eingeladen wirst – sondern ein Algorithmus. Er filtert deine Bewerbung, scannt dein Konto, bewertet dein „Risikoprofil“. Und irgendwann stellst du dir die Frage: Wer hat mich eigentlich beurteilt – ein Mensch oder ein Modell? In „Wie die KI mich gefeuert hat – Der Job, den ich nie gemacht habe“ erzählt Sam Nyxon einen packenden Near-Future-Thriller darüber, wie weit wir diese Entscheidungen bereits an künstliche Intelligenz ausgelagert haben – und was passiert, wenn eine einzige Plattform zu viel Macht bekommt.

What could be harder for two Combat Mages (even Universal ones) than having to kill a creature who's totally immune to magic? Whatever the answer, the game doesn't care. Anyone who's decided to make something of themselves, let alone earn the status of a "key character," is going to have to...

The gods should have agreed to fight the giants and let Ragnarök run its course and bring about the end of time. For a new world could only rise from the ashes of the old. But because the gods prophesied to die refused to take part, Yggdrasil - the World Tree - was forced to act before the stalemate led to the annihilation of the nine worlds and its very existence.  And so I was born. One of the many seeds dispersed by the mighty World Tree, I was teleported through different planes and universes to find a new home where to settle. 

A new pandemic - the perma effect - has taken over Earth of the near future.

Jimmy Kincaid, burned-out mage, P. I., and the closest thing Puyallup’s got to a hero, has a lot on his plate these days. Simmering gang wars, feuding mobsters, missing runaways, magical power only as reliable as his stubborn sorcerous patron, and—well above his usual pay grade—an encrypted data file that's already cost him friends, but that he can’t even access.
