Like many teenagers, there's a lot about Daniel Meadows' life that's out of his control. For example, having to start in a new school district for his freshman year of high school thanks to his dad's new job. Inside the realm of his control, however, is the decision to try a brand-new sport purely to impress a girl.

Or will he simply use them to become the greatest tennis player ever just to chase the girl of his dreams? Who knows? After all, it’s freshman year and he’s got a long way to go. This slice-of-life tennis LitRPG serves up progression, sports, and fun in one hilarious series.

Based (verrrrrry loosely) on True Events. Alexis Lieberman has been hacked. And not just hacked like someone stole her credit card information and did something reasonable, like buy a new TV or go to Aruba. Oh, nooooooo, of course not. No, she got hacked, and her credit card was used to buy the most vile, disgusting thing she could even contemplate. Sub sandwiches with extra mayo. That’s right — her identity was stolen and all they got was some cheap sub sandwich delivery, and not even good subs at that. But that’s beside the point. The point is that her identity was stolen, the sanctity of her computing world was violated, and it is high time that the evildoers were brought to justice, and made to answer for their crimes against Lexi — and against lunches worldwide. I mean, really. Extra mayo? Who even does that? But now Lexi has another problem. Nobody cares. Not the local police, not the police in the town where the subs were fraudulently purchased, not even the FBI, who’s supposed to handle things like interstate wire fraud, international drug cartels, and human trafficking. No, there’s no evidence of international drug cartels or human trafficking, but there’s also no evidence that those things aren’t involved, now is there? So Lexi, after a long afternoon day drinking with her next door neighbor and BFF, Rhonda Mabry, she does the only thing she can think of — she loads up the Prius and heads off to Orlando in search of justice and whoever would order extra mayo. I mean, gross. Along the way, there are drunken bar fights, drunken Bar Olympics, underwear malfunctions, a visit to at least one drunk tank, a fling with a man missing his eyebrows (which may or may not be Lexi’s doing), a showdown with the Russian mob, and a mechanical bull named Hornicus Prime.

Chronicles of the Lazarene is a companion piece to The Endless Vessel. Think of it as something like the ship’s log for the voyage you see in The Endless Vessel, telling stories of the ship's adventures that didn’t fit into the main novel’s narrative. Chronicles tells its own full story, and it’s a hell of a read in its own right. The story is told from the perspective of a man named Luis Pedrona, who signs onto the ship featured in The Endless Vessel (it’s called the Lazarene). Luis experiences its journeys firsthand, and keeps a diary recording everything that happens over two full centuries. Wait - two hundred years? How could one guy keep a diary for two hundred years?

Something dark and sinister is coming after Calista—and it’s hungry. Can Violet fix her mistake and help get Calista and Kallie back to their world?

One wrong step… …and you could be a T-Rex’s dinner! When Liam realizes his inventor dad has created a time machine—a REAL time machine—he just can’t help his curiosity. But because of one little mistake, Liam and his dad soon find themselves jumping back into the cretaceous. With the time machine’s special battery gone missing, now they’re stranded in the past with no way home.

Will Liam find the courage to reclaim the battery without making the cretaceous’s top carnivore angry?

In this world, a lucky few are born with special powers based on a single word. That word is called an "epithet." Each epithet is linked to the user's soul, and no two people have the same one. By tapping into their word, epithet users—the inscribed—can do amazing things that ordinary people—mundies—could only dream of! After a long week of dealing with criminals, wizards, and panic attacks, 12-year-old Molly Blyndeff returns home to the toy store her family owns and operates for some much-needed rest. Unfortunately, her superpowered older sister, Lorelai, has other plans in mind. After a nasty argument, Molly and her friends end up trapped in a world created by Lorelai's epithet, "Augment." Now they must travel through her wonderland in order to confront Molly's bratty older sister . . . and the only weapon they have at their disposal is Molly's considerably less intimidating epithet, "Dumb". The road is fraught with danger, with everything from ogres to spelling tests standing in their way . . . but the thing both sisters are most afraid of is the idea that they might never be close again. Prison of Plastic is the official continuation of the beloved web-animated series Epithet Erased, which can be streamed in its entirety on YouTube and VRV.
