Nicoli Gonnella

Felix's life on Earth had become a series of dead-end jobs, ruined relationships and rotating apartments smaller than most postage stamps. When given the chance to choose between risking his life or walking away from a deadly encounter, he doesn't hesitate - and moments before his untimely demise he is snatched from Earth and thrust into a magical world known only as 'The Continent'. Empowered by the System, he learns he can strengthen himself through combat and dedication. To survive he'll have to push himself beyond his limits, or fall to the monsters all around him. What begins as a desperate scramble for survival becomes a continent-spanning saga of Strongholds, Territories, Primordials, gods and Unbound - those few souls the System has marked as free from its constraints. Across twelve volumes Felix evolves from Initiate to Master and beyond, gathering allies, building a Territory of Nagast, and confronting the Hierocracy, the Maw, and the gods themselves.

Sovereign Sight

Nicoli Gonnella

Without Talent, you are nothing. In Harker's world, Talent decides everything: status, power, and potential. He has only the smallest Knack for perception — enough to stay one step ahead of townsfolk that hated him — combined with strict Laws and terrible cleverness. The storm changed everything: cursed, his small Talent is enhanced far beyond its Scope, flowing with power greedy hunters would kill to claim. His only hope is the forbidden Nine Spires Academy, where the greatest Talents teach geniuses. Caught in a race against time, Harker must pass the entrance exam before the curse kills him, learning to turn curse into blessing and finally truly live — if he survives his first lesson.
