The Menocht Loop
Ian Dunai thought he was powerless. He’s not alone: only a small percent of the population have high enough affinities to perform magic. But in the eyes of his father’s gifted family, Ian’s impotence is a disgrace—and the stain of his mother’s common blood. But on one fateful day, Ian awakens not in his college dorm but in the middle of the ocean on an old dinghy. Reaching land is the least of his problems as he encounters risen skeletons, tortured captives, and a shoreside city in the throes of contagion. Ian doesn’t last very long without magic. But death isn’t the end: Ian wakes back up on the dinghy and relives the day again...and again...and again. As Ian investigates the purpose of the loop and a way to escape, he begins to realize that he might be more powerful than anyone—especially himself—ever imagined.

8 12459The Will of the Dead
Have you ever felt true despair? The need to just not exist anymore? Then you too know the Cruelty of the World and the Edge of Madness. Thorin — a pickpocket in Athros city — was taken to that edge, teetering on the borders of sanity. He took the odds and embraced the disdain for the society that pushed him over, letting the deep-seated hatred burn up inside him. He chose to take revenge but, to do so, he needed power. His quest for strength found him gripping the same thing he shied away from — death itself. Using the unholy powers of Necromancy, he became an enemy to all that lives, a force against the nature itself. And nothing shall stand in his way. Welcome to the story a young man who died while alive. Welcome to a story about becoming the master of all. Welcome to The Will of the Dead. Hi this is a semi rewrite of my previous novel The Will of the Strong. Beginning is a little slow but it will pick up pace by chap 4-5 Also skip chapter 6 if you do not enjoy graphic material. Thanks for reading, Danjor

Five years. Nazarick had existed in this New World for five years, and in that time turned it utterly upside down. The subservience of the Baharuth Empire, the Dwarven Kingdom, the Quagoa Tribes, the Elven Kingdom, and the Lizardmen Tribe. The destruction of the Re-Estize Kingdom. Worship from Roble Holy Kingdom, and even a ceasefire with the Dragon Lords of the Argland Council State. Now Ainz Ooal Gown can turn his sights south, to the Slane Theocracy. Thanks for reading!

8 68Fracture: Tales of the Broken Lands
Fracture is a place where broken things are sent to become whole. The landscape is a chaotic amalgamation of fragmented worlds smashed together by the Logos. The Broken Lands are a perilous place filled with intrigue and hardship which suffocates the weak and rewards the strong. However, the denizens of Fracture are not left to the mercy of the land and its rulers. Each inhabitant is bestowed with the power of the Logos upon arrival giving them the ability to grow stronger by slaying monsters, fulfilling objectives, and collecting coveted Relics. Jack is a man down on his luck. Five years ago, he woke up in Fracture, a nexus of dying worlds formed by the Logos, with no memory of his past. Chased by the powerful, tormented by his failures, and scarred from loss, Jack has fallen into a downward spiral as he dodges his pursuers who seem to know more about him than he does himself. To hide, he takes up a false identity as Atlas, a freelance relic hunter hiding under the noses of those who hunt him. One day, a routine job takes a turn for the worse and spirals out of control forcing him to face his fears and survive the most dangerous mission of his life. I commissioned the artist, germancreative, for my cover art.
