There is a restaurant in Toronto. Its entrance is announced only by a simple unadorned wooden door, varnished to a beautiful shine but without paint, hidden beside dumpsters and a fire escape. There is no sign, no indication of what lies behind the door. If you do manage to find the restaurant, the décor is dated and worn—homey, if one were to be generous. This is the story of the Nameless Restaurant.

Auf die Ankunft des Systems ist niemand vorbereitet. Schon gar nicht Kira Kent, eine Pflanzenbiologin und alleinerziehende Mutter. Sie legt gerade mit den Kindern im Schlepptau eine Nachtschicht ein, als ihre heißgeliebte Tierwelt zu mutieren beginnt.

The land rush is over. With just a few open stakes remaining two years after the System’s arrival on Earth, the incoming alien groups turn on each other in a cutthroat struggle for dominance. These conflicts are ripe opportunities for bold adventurers and bounty hunter Hal Mason isn’t one to miss his chance. When a trade dispute between two powerful Galactic factions escalates into open warfare, Mason plunges headfirst into the fray.

Newly minted an Elder of the Verdant Green Waters sect, sword prodigy Elder Cheng Zhao Wan—the Sundering Blade—is forced to leave the sect to fulfill an old obligation. A benefactor from the past is injured and has demanded Elder Cheng locate his assailant. Forced to listen to the ramblings of a dying old man, amidst a small and unfamiliar sect, who Elder Cheng can trust is unknown. Was the injury nothing more than happenstance, or is something more dire afoot?

Fool's Play is the first book in a new series in the System Apocalypse universe. Written by David R. Packer in Tao Wong's bestselling post-apocalyptic LitRPG universe, System Apocalypse: Kismet follows a different path through a post-apocalyptic world, one of hope, redemption, and second chances.

Long Wu Ying wurde aus der Sekte des Sattgrünen Wassers verbannt, weil er sich den Befehlen der Ältesten widersetzt hat. Gezwungen, sich in der Außenwelt zu beweisen, bevor ihm die Rückkehr gestattet wird, bricht Wu Ying auf eine Reise auf, die ihn an altbekannte Orte und in ein neues Königreich verschlagen wird.

Allein die Flucht vom Hauptplaneten wird sie bis aufs Äußerste belasten. Der vollen Macht des Galaktischen Rates und seiner Gefolgsleute zu entkommen, wird vielleicht mehr sein, als sie verkraften können. Während alte Verbündete sich mit den neuen Wahrheiten befassen und Freunde unter dem zunehmenden Druck zerbrechen, muss John sich auch mit der unvollendeten Systemquest beschäftigen.

When the Towers arrived, without warning, without communication of intent or indication of reasoning, chaos ensued. Decades later, enchantments from the Tower and mana cores from the creatures within power the most advanced technologies in the real world. What was once a puzzling mystery has become a necessary part of economic growth. For Arthur Chua, the Malaysian Beginner Tower has always been his objective.

Arthur's cleared the first floor of the dungeon. More than that, with his new ally in Cassie Chin, he's got a real chance of building his Clan. The problem is, his alliance is contingent on them pushing ahead fast to allow the Chin to make full use of their Clan Halls. The Benevolent Durians are on a speed run, but in a Tower where levels are multi-kilometers long at times, with cultivation requirements, and new enemies all around, how fast is too fast?

When the end comes for Fool and Jackal, they’re going out with style. Past plans set in motion ago are coming to a head faster than expected. The Foundation has sent Fool and Jackal to Vancouver on another easy, simple mission. It's anything but. A mystery. A new enemy, stronger than both of them combined. Little grey aliens. Secrets revealed. And at the center of it all?

When you're at war with inter-dimensional enemies for the fate of humanity, every step forward just brings you closer to the enemy. Matt's realising that his new allies might be useful, but it also expands his borders. In a mad scramble to strengthen his units before he next show drops, all he can do is keep pushing.

Mo Meng is reminded of that fact once again as the Nameless Restaurant faces a new challenge. Magic and its old wielders are returning to the world. For the restaurant, wards of anonymity and camouflage are fading, leading to the arrival of new customers. And some older friends. What started as a way to pass the decades and feed a few customers has become actual work. The world is changing, and to face it, the Nameless Restaurant, along with its proprietor and patrons, will need to embrace the change with a good meal and new friends.

Es ist über ein Jahr her, seit das System auf der Erde erschien und dabei gleichermaßen Blut und Monster mit sich brachte. Nachdem John und sein Team Whitehorse verlassen haben, reisen sie nach British Columbia, wo ihnen neue Gefahren durch Außerirdische und Menschen drohen. Angesichts neuer Herausforderungen und neuer Feinde versuchen John und seine Freunde, menschliche Siedlungen in Nordamerika aus der galaktischen Kontrolle zu befreien.

Earth as a new Dungeon World means opportunities and dangers galore. One of the enduring aspects of the System is the Shop, an interdimensional series of stores that compete for the opportunity to service clients and make a profit doing so. New clients on a new Dungeon World mean rare and heretofore unseen items and massive profits. No surprise that the vultures have arrived, searching for easy marks.

Der zweite Handlungsabschnitt von Wu Yings Reise zur Unsterblichkeit beginnt in Die zweite Expedition, wo er und seine Gefährten nach einem Heilmittel für ein Gift suchen, das seinen Meister plagt. In der Wildnis und neuen Städten suchen sie nach seltenen Zutaten, während sie Assassinen und Mörder abwimmeln müssen.

Hal Mason's still going to find surviving the System Apocalypse challenging. While bringing in his latest fugitive, Hal's payday is interrupted by the translucent blue boxes that herald Earth's introduction to the System - a galaxy spanning wave of structured mystical energy that destroys all electronics and bestows game-like abilities upon mankind. With society breaking down and mutating wildlife rampaging through the city of Pittsburgh, those who remain will sacrifice anything for a chance at earning their next Level.

An diese Tatsache wird Mo Meng ein weiteres Mal erinnert, als das Namenlose Restaurant vor einer neuen Herausforderung steht. Magie und die Älteren, die sie nutzten, kehren in die Welt zurück. Die Schutzzauber der Anonymität und Verschleierung beginnen zu verblassen, was zur Ankunft neuer Gäste und alter Freunde führt. Was als Möglichkeit begann, gemütlich die Jahrzehnte zu verbringen und ein paar Gäste zu bewirten, ist nun zu richtiger Arbeit geworden.

Meet the local hero and Power that saved the internationally renowned annual sled dog race, hear his thoughts on the event and what living in Dawson City year round is like. Listen to his remarkable story, the process of freezing the Yukon river and future plans.

A new Hero has emerged and with her appearance, some questions have been answered. However, encountering a new enemy to the north has Braskar and the new army rushing to battle once again, even as Matt desperately tries to locate enough units to bolster his defences.

Faced with cavalry and horse archers alike, Matt Fang finds his armies out of position and reeling. He's going to have to pull back, concentrate his forces and pull off some miracle if he doesn't want to be a victim of his latest opponent. Good thing he's got new allies and even more units to play with. Now, all he needs is the time to get them in place.
