Book excerpt: Everyone knows the reputation that Goblins have; nasty, slobbering little creatures, whose only purpose is to die in droves, slain by some noble band of heroes. What if Goblins decided they wanted to become civilized? What then? Would a world dominated by Humans and Elves believe them, or even permit them to gather and build a city? Goblin City is the tale of an enterprising Goblin, named Grum, who strives to do that very thing. He struggles against all odds to unite several unruly Goblin clans, to settle and build a city on the outskirts of Human territory. Grum faces the challenge of curtailing the warriors’ natural blood lust, while overcoming racial prejudice and fostering trade with other civilizations. He also learns of a very frightening secret held by the Goblin women. Then, a war of a very unusual nature threatens to destroy all that they’ve built. Come in and explore the Goblin City.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ivan Susanin, a typical guy and unemployed techie, is initiated by the System and transported, together with a thousand other players, to an unknown location beyond Earth. Ivan has an interface, a spear, and basic weapon skills. All he has to do to return to Earth is complete a simple quest and reach the second level. But experience points are only awarded for kills in this game, and the clock is ticking. Whoever doesn't score within 24 hours will remain in the location forever.The game takes places in the ruins of a massive city, where the undead lurk in the central districts and the outskirts are raided by the descendants of past owners. The undead are strong, while the goblins rarely move around alone and aren't worth much XP. The most valuable prey under these conditions are formal allies, i.e. the other players. If a player is capable of killing a fellow human, of course. Even if they aren't planning to go against their own nature by murdering innocents, who said that they will have a choice? It's kill or be killed!Those who complete the quest will be returned to Earth, where they can rest and prepare for the next attempt. Beyond the local objective is also a global one. In the center of the city stands a temple to a fallen god, and until one of the players captures the Altar, the mission will be repeated again and again. But when all you're holding is a spear, your allies can't be trusted, and resurrection is nearly impossible, this isn't much more than a delayed death sentence...For the first seven players, who become the Earth Gods, this mission is a chance to rapidly gain power and take charge of a united Pantheon. A chance to escape death and protect our world from invasion. Although there is only one altar and the Gods make others do their work. Ivan must make a choice and decide whose pawn he will become. Or should he take a risk, refuse their patronage and keep his options open?

Book excerpt: In the land of Northern Shala, the dark wizard Premier raised an army of foul creatures from the Wastelands and led them against the ancient guardian city of Alexandria. Hellsfire, a young farmhand turned apprentice wizard, defeated Premier and saved Alexandria, but not before the battle claimed his mentor’s life. Hellsfire, now a full-fledged wizard, must finish what he started by hunting down Premier and seizing the source of the wizard’s dark power and corruption—the Book of Shazul. He must travel deep into the Wastelands, through Premier’s home territory, dodging the scattered remnants of a defeated army lusting for blood and vengeance. But beating in the heart of the Wastelands is an ancient power more dangerous than Premier or his creatures—and it’s been waiting for Hellsfire for a thousand years. It will force the young wizard to make a devastating choice—one that could change the course of history not only for Alexandria and the Wastelands, but for all of Northern Shala and the lands beyond. And to save his homeland, Hellsfire may have to lose the person he loves the most. What once was one, will then be two, and never again be whole...
