Story
Jason and his friends just wanted to spend a week at the lake house. Time to relax, hang out, and catch up on old times. Then the System arrived. It only took a few hours for their world to become a real-life roleplaying game; trading some downtime for the need to learn new skills and powers while trying to defend their new home, their families, and survive. They don’t know the rules. They don’t know what’s coming next. What they do know is; they need to reinforce and expand their fort while protecting it, keep leveling up, and explore a dangerous new world.

Story
This fourth wall-breaking, three-book collection showcases Jackson's adventures through fantasy realms, comic book universes, and classic space opera settings. Each fast-paced novel allows Jackson to flex his powers, skills, and wits as he exploits the rules, points out the respective genre's flaws, and undermines godly authority to win the day. All the while laughing at the expense of our beloved tropes. Because that is what villains should do, shouldn’t they?

Story
Planet Earth's greatest artist, Marcus Korol, crashes on the surface of Grimworld, a planet with a base-building system, which Marcus has to master in order to survive and prosper. Even if he can cope with the monsters there are slavers and cannibals nearby. Staying alive, let alone prospering, is a daunting challenge that even a battle-hardened general would find difficult. Yet perhaps art can succeed where warfare would fail.

Story
One day, I’m just trying to make ends meet as a security guard at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, DC. Then I happened upon a mysterious pocket watch and ended up in the year 1814. Time traveling takes a little getting used to, but it definitely helped that I found a pretty blonde woman to help me navigate 19th century DC. And when I discovered I could take things from the past and bring them to the future, a very lucrative idea took root in my brain…

The only man who can expose it is Nathaniel Zane, a soldier-turned-thief who wields dangerous and illegal magic.

They’ve taken enough from everyone. I will show them what I “Bring”. In the frigid depths of the glacier Korigara, a small blue Alerez with no name is torn from his home and sold into slavery in the city of Yalor—a metropolis operated entirely by the enslaved and charged with conjuring in the Golden Dawn, the legendary age of prosperity.

The way he sees it, being last of a line means he can dispense with social niceties and do exactly what he wants. And if any unwelcome visitors have a problem with that, this guy's got one or two surprises for them.
