    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.

    In “Bhagavad Gita for Beginners: The Song of God in Simplified Prose,” author Edward Viljoen uses contemporary, simplified language to bring this inspiring work to life. That which seems to be forcing people to act in selfish--even evil--ways is really the accumulation of desires coming together in a strong, irresistible appetite for self-satisfaction. These desires are rooted in the senses, and sense information can be misleading. More powerful than the senses, though, is the mind. And more powerful than the mind is the will (or intellect), and that which is above it all,--the Real Self, that part of us not deluded by the information of the sense world. The Bhagavad Gita For Beginners: The Song Of God In Simplified Prose will inspire uninitiated readers of the Bhagavad-Gita to delve into the original text, as well as bring a newly-found clarity and perspective to those already familiar with it.

    Everybody else is just doing it wrong. At least that's what the developers said. In Forbidden Arcana you could pick up a sword, swing it around, and become a powerful warrior in no time. Magic, not so much. The most powerful mage in the game was only capable of casting a fire pillar, Jericho was the fifth most powerful. Needless to say he was equally unimpressive. He could have changed classes a hundred times, but from the moment he cast his first fireball, Jericho was hooked on magic. Nothing compared to the electric feeling as fire and air mixed at his finger tips creating an explosion...even if it did injure him half the time. So, when he meets Jinx, a familiar who's knowledge of magic is only matched by her knowledge of insults, Jericho's perfectly willing to bind himself to her in exchange for teaching him magic. Now all he needs to do is figure out how he's going to pay for her expensive tastes and keep up with her more physical demands. Forbidden Arcana is a fun fantasy LitRPG by Tamryn Tamer and contains elven strippers, foul language, twosomes threesomes and foursomes, and completely over the top love making. You've been warned.
