Maximilian is the last of the noble Valevsky lineage. His entire family was put to death for an alleged attempt on the powerful Duke of Odoevsky, who had his eye set on the Valevsky's land. The young man managed to avoid execution, but not punishment. From here on out, he's condemned to life as a doomed soldier. The front line in the fight against the dark god Skron's mutated creatures. "Do or die"—that's the doomer motto that has been drilled into the last of the Valevsky's head. The Duke took everything from him but his honor and a thirst for revenge.

I hope that by now you've lost any illusions you had about the Selected being some kind of elite force of intelligent civilization, chosen to fight against Universal Evil. So far, the only evil I've seen is the buggy System and the lack of basic sanitary facilities while we're adventuring. Also, it would be a real stretch to describe my companions as "elite". As for all the problems that come with being Selected—well, we can handle them!

Hi, my name's Max and I'm one of the Selected. What's the first thing that pops into your head when you read those words? A great hero, chosen from among all the billions of people on Earth? A lucky man who has ended up on an unknown world and gained superpowers? An explorer of new worlds who has discovered his destiny? Well, that's all true, but there is one but . . . Actually, if I'm honest, there are a whole load of buts. And there are rules. And the first rule of the Selected is: "Try not to die. It is expensive and impractical."

Max, formerly Maximilian Valevsky, begins to understand what it means to exist in a dark world dominated by light. People hate him, exploit him, fear him, and try to kill him the first chance they get. But our hero is willing to endure all trials and tribulations in pursuit of his goal: killing Duke Odoevsky and avenging his family. And he'll let nothing stand in his way.

The dark "doomed soldier" Max, formerly Baron Maximilian Valevsky, has committed an act of heroism. The emperor wants to personally reward him, and a meeting with the leader of the empire means only one thing: Max will regain his former name. But the mysterious forces circling the throne of the Zarask Empire have their own opinions about how best to utilize Max and his abilities. Their task is simple: bend our hero to their will and force him to do their bidding. But will Max agree to dance like a marionette with someone else pulling the strings?

Maximillian has been given the chance to avenge his family's death: the Duke of Odoevsky has conspired in a plot against the emperor, and if Max plays his cards right, he'll be able to destroy the man who read out his family's execution order with such ecstasy. But one small mistake topples his plans, and now thousands of people caught in the clutches of terrible monsters are counting on him to save them. What choice must he make? Revenge or salvation?

Was kann an einer Schule der Erleuchtung in Zone Null schon schiefgehen, wenn alle mächtigen Feinde besiegt sind und zwei Suchende mit vereinten Kräften nicht nur allen Gegnern ihrer eigenen Aufstiegsstufe gewachsen sind, sondern sogar etlichen stärkeren? Leider so einiges, wie sich herausstellt - besonders, wenn die Clans darum wetteifern, wer im nächsten Jahrzehnt Zugang zur Ur-Seele bekommen soll. Die Suchenden sehen sich gezwungen, die Lehrbücher beiseitezulegen und sich ihrer eigentlichen Aufgabe zu widmen - das Unmögliche möglich zu machen.

To wage war against the Bohao cultists, who have essentially taken control of both worlds, you need to think strategically. Eliminating the leadership seems logical, but with no access to the central region where the cult's leaders hide, that's a dead end. Hunting down individual cultists would take centuries, and they'd just recruit more in the meantime. So what do we do? The best approach would be to cut off all supply lines of the ancient substance they rely on and destroy every concentration camp where they keep the unfortunates they intend to sacrifice on their altar.

Der Tod ist nicht das Ende. Maximilian Walewski wurde ermordet, doch die Runenmagie hat ihn in diese Realität zurückgeholt. Es sind nach wie vor Feinde zu vernichten und böse Kräfte aus dieser Welt zu vertreiben. Die einzige Frage ist: Was wird er mit der Person tun, die ihn umgebracht hat? Wird er vergeben und vergessen oder wird er etwas unternehmen, um dafür zu sorgen, dass seine Mörderin so etwas nie wieder abzieht? Doch bevor er diese Frage lösen kann, muss er einen Weg finden, die Runenmagie zu entfernen. Was nützt es, sie zu töten, wenn sie immer wieder zurückkommt?

The law of the jungle is straightforward—all means are justified in one's pursuit of ascension. After all, it's the result that matters—not how you achieve it. And yet the end doesn't always justify the means—especially when the ascension of one requires the suffering of hundreds. The Heavens do not take kindly to such acts. And so it came to pass that the Seekers have been forced to take matters into their own hands, bringing light to places where it had never shone before. However, the Bohao Cult has turned out to be far stronger than initially thought.

All or nothing. Life or death. There is no third option. Neither the ancients, nor outside forces, nor Chaos itself can find any other way to preserve the integrity of the world other than to destroy Archduke Maximilian Valevsky. They send him on a mission that can only be completed under one condition—Maximilian must die. And if he doesn't fulfill this mission, everyone he holds dear will perish in his stead.

The offworlders are defeated. The Lithoids have been destroyed. It seems like a long-awaited peace is about to befall Hearth, but the servants of Chaos have their own designs. They're eager to destroy the trouble-maker and control him like some kind of puppet. Once a doomed soldier, always a doomed soldier.

Ein Scheck über eine Milliarde Credits. Der Preis schien für immer verloren, doch nun funkelt er wieder vor ihren Augen und zieht unser Pärchen magisch an. Die Piraten, die Uldaner, die Zatrathi - all das spielt jetzt keine Rolle mehr. Das endgültige Ziel ist so nah. Sie müssen nur noch die Hand ausstrecken und es ergreifen. Doch das Glück wird sich Chirurg nicht kampflos hingeben. Es kommt nur zu denen, die sich beweisen.

What does it feel like to have the whole world know they owe you their salvation? Is it pride? A realization of your own greatness against the backdrop of anonymity? There are lots of possibilities, only none of them describe what actually happened. Instead of becoming the savior, Leg Ondo was made a mockery. The being governing the planet forbade his totems and chosen people to talk about the battle. And that left the world confused. What did the Brown Bear Clan do to deserve the goodies that came pouring down on it? Should they be knocked off the pedestal they recently climbed atop?

Zul'var's altar is no more. In one fell swoop, it was destroyed, Leg Ondo lost his shot at becoming a full-fledged wizard, and Liara Slick disappeared without a trace. The emperor is doing everything he can to impede the upstart clan's growth. A mysterious wizard following Bashorg is filling Brown Bear lands with terrifying demons. And then there's the academy and final exams.

Was könnte mehr Spaß machen als ein Weltraumabenteuer? Kapitän Chirurg kennt die Antwort - Weltraumpiraterie! Plündern, rauben, brandschatzen und das ganze Diebesgut verkaufen - das ist das Motto der Piraten von Galaktogon, und Chirurg tut sein Bestes, um sich ihnen anzuschließen.

Zwölf Spieler begeben sich auf eine Reise durch die Online-Welt von Galactogon, angelockt durch den enormen Gewinn, den die Spieleigentümer versprechen. Die Frage ist: Wer wird lange genug leben, um seine Geschichte erzählen zu können? Wer von den zwölf Spielern ist ein potenzieller Held - und wer wird zum Verräter? Wer von ihnen wird die Schwachen verteidigen und wer wird zum ultimativen Herrscher des Bösen? Ritter oder Feigling? Jeder und jede der Zwölf wird sich entscheiden müssen. Sie alle werden ein Pokerface aufsetzen.

His initiation complete, Leg knew he had to prove himself worthy of the gift his totem had given him. The boy was facing a long and difficult journey to dangerous lands. Meanwhile, those with eyes set on ruling the Northern Empire were also making their move. But what was most important to Leg? His personal advancement or the integrity of the empire? Of course, it was possible the two priorities were inseparable, especially since a true wizard had been introduced to the world.

Modern times. Genius physicist Artyom Kuchaev found himself facing the darker side of the world we live in. Integrity is met with a laugh, the rat race instead full of people out to grab whatever they can. Where big money is on the line, no betrayal, even of loved ones, is a bridge too far. But Artyom couldn't bring himself to conform. Instead, he decided to make a change in himself if not in the world around him. His work, surroundings, country....

Death had only ever been a small misunderstanding for the high mage. After his seventh reincarnation, he'd begun thinking of it differently, viewing it as nothing more than a slight hiccup in his plans. But he'd forgotten one thing: When those plans get in the way of those higher up the ladder, punishment is soon to follow. And one more death brought faint consolation.
