A Flesh Golem's Ascension
John Domus Cruo - 2017
In time he regains his memories and realizes this is like the fantasy worlds he has always longed for but nothing is exactly how it seems. John is now a cannibalistic flesh golem stranded in a remote location with no idea where to go or what to do. He has voices in his head and the core of a dark god pulling his strings and playing with his motivations. It's not all bad though as he has the ability to customize his body and steal souls. Book one is about John figuring out what he needs to do and what he is capable of. There are no heroes in this story, no quests and no escape. If he dies, the world ends. This book has dark themes, extreme cruelty, sexual themes and harem as well as some Litrpg elements.
Lightfoot
Joe Kuster - 2020
With little more to his name than a winning smile, his life takes a turn for the interesting as he befriends Serina, a rebellious young woman among the god-like Devas that control his realm. Being a test subject for her magic seems innocent enough, even if she occasionally tinkers with things she shouldn’t.Unfortunately, her experiments on him don’t go unnoticed and as soon as her family finds out, he’s as good as dead. About to be pulped by dozens of angry higher powers, Serina saves him the only way she can: by binding his soul to hers and flinging him through a portal to another world.Landing in the realm full of dangerous creatures and sinister adversaries, he finds that the pact has changed him in more ways than claiming his soul. The newly minted adventurer has his work cut out for him, especially since he doesn’t have any idea how to use the magic that’s been stuffed into him, much less what to do about the oaths that require him to love freely and spend his nights carousing.Join TJ on this riveting adventure that spans multiple worlds and help him discover the secrets of the Devas as he struggles to survive and fulfill his oaths.Disclaimer: This series features a protagonist raised in a higher realm where free love and indulgence are the norm and has a set of morals and ethics that are different from our own. His story includes building harem-like relationships with multiple devoted women, and does not fade to black. Also, this story is not game-lit, it doesn't feature crunchy rules-heavy stories, there's not a stat in the house, the MC doesn't exploit world mechanics, nor is it for the faint of heart. For 18+ readers only.
