About this listen
What happens when the apocalypse is over; to love, strained and torn?
How do you pick up the pieces, when life stabilises?
It's a question our heroes must ask themselves, when they're no longer fighting off swarms of monsters, no longer struggling for credits and levels.
Valentines in an Apocalypse is set four years after the System Apocalypse has arrived, between books five and six of the System Apocalypse and features new characters. The story is set in Vancouver, BC.

In the System Apocalypse, a single title can make or break a build. And in the entire Galactic System, there are Title Seekers, those who make it their life quest to acquire the most unusual and rare titles possible. Earth, a new Dungeon World offers multiple possibilities. Not least among them, the one from a familiar set of golden arches. For the Kyaz, it’s a chance in a million to get a rare title. If he can manage to evade the machinations of a fellow Title Seeker and trust his human sidekick, Xi Ping.

One faithful day, Henry Tsien finds a briefcase and a ring within it. Within hours, his world has changed, as a helpful jinn introduces him to a hidden world. What can an old-school gamer given magic do in a world filled with age-old, hidden, supernatural creatures? The Hidden Wishes series is an urban fantasy take on the gamlit genre. It is much lighter in terms of "statistics" and its game system.

Felix's life on Earth had become a series of dead-end jobs, ruined relationships, and rotating apartments smaller than most postage stamps. By all accounts, even his own, he was a coward. Too afraid to move forward, to take risks. Yet when given the chance to choose between risking his life or walking away from a deadly encounter, he didn't hesitate. Moments before his untimely demise, Felix was snatched from earth and thrust into a magical world known only as "The Continent". Empowered by the "System", he learns that he can strengthen himself through combat and dedication.

Unfortunately, the zone fell out of use centuries ago, and no one told the monsters they were supposed to take it easy on the Noobs. Even worse, the only new player around is Jim.

My name is Alphonse Malloy, and I see everything. From a simple glance, I know your hobbies, what you ate for breakfast, how well you slept, and whether or not your wife is secretly seeing the high school biology teacher when you're not around. I can't explain how or why I get these feelings, only that I know they're true. All the little secrets you're too afraid to tell. Sometimes, that means helping people. Other times, it means staring down the barrel of a loaded gun. I wish I could tell you I was using this ability for good.

Story
Miracle Springs is a place of healing. Strangers flock there hoping that the natural hot springs, five-star cuisine, and renowned spa can cure their ills. And, if none of that works, they often find their way to Miracle Books, where, over a fresh-baked scone from the Gingerbread House bakery, they exchange their stories with owner Nora Pennington in return for a carefully chosen book. That's Nora's special talent: prescribing the perfect novel to ease a person's deepest pain and lighten their heaviest burden.

Story
Even if Callie were to entertain the idea of dating, she's certain it would be with someone vibrant, open, and close to her own age. Definitely not someone like Dr. Kate Jory, a new member of Pennbrook College's English department. Kate is both intimidating and a closed book. And the age difference between them is not small. But Kate is also brilliant and fascinating, and Callie is drawn to her in ways she'd never imagined possible.

Spoiler
I just finished valentines in an apocalypse, another short story in the System Apocalypse universe.
Wow this one was really cool, as well as kind of bittersweet. I really liked seeing the organization stuff that happened in beteeen these books because it’s something we don’t get to see from Jhon.
The library thing is fascinating, I think I would like it if at the end of book 12 Jhon donated the quester library to earth, because it would then become the single largest repository of all knowledge, but that’s probably be unlikely.
The main charecters are great non combat classes. Librarian would be one of the classes I’d want to start with if I had a choice, while linguist is super useful.
Its cute how well they know eachother, even when they are doing things that ish r. Or Al for them such as the love stuff. I like seeing more as time goes on and these are cute characters.
The sad part is the mention of Lanna. It’s cool to see her take charge, and I think this takes place in between the time period where John is gone. The line “she has a thing against chocolates for some reason” is just… SO sad. Oh my gods.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
