After all of their adventures, the crew of House Louisville was ready to sit back and take it easy. But a surprise visitor informed them they owed millions of pearls to the Bank. The Exchequer was willing to take them all as indentured servants for the Bank and let them work decades to pay off their debt. That would mean splitting up the House, though, and nobody was willing to let that happen.

Earth, wind, water, fire, life, death, mind control... What if you had one magical power and one power only: the ability to use all other forms of magic? The catch is, you need to level each and every one of them up first. What would you do?

The Carter villain school has fled into space and joined forces with the Mad King of New Sahana, but Nick and his fellow heroes-in-training won't let them get away. It's a superpowered battle among the stars, and the stakes have never been higher. But when Nick and his team arrive on New Sahana, nothing could prepare them for what they find. Super-charged genocidal soldiers would be one thing, but nothing could prepare them for alien ghosts, a growing blight, and worst of all, a threat from within that threatens to tear the team of heroes apart.

Jason is getting ready to have the adventure of his life! He and Sandy are heading to the Gathering, which is a conference where the Heads of the Households of the supernatural world network, talk about problems and solutions facing the Houses, and learn a few things. Jason is going just to support Sandy, and figures he’ll have a mildly interesting time and be home soon. Instead, he gets poisoned, fights for his life, meets a whole new nation, learns the history and secrets of runes, has a cosmic encounter, makes many new friends, and finally gets in touch with his godhood.

After getting punched in the face by a golem, Jason discovers he desperately needs two things: A much better offense and a much better defense. To a hammer, everything looks like a nail, and to a mage, everything is solved with magic. That is, unless your magic is small and restricted like Jason’s. Since he can’t use charms, create shields, or throw fireballs, he needs to find a different way to win battles. Fortunately, Tyler is back, and as a Natural, he is ready to teach Jason the Way of the Fist. Among other things. (Nudge nudge, wink wink).

Riding on the high of success after last semester, it looks like Nick’s path through Valcav Academy to become the world’s greatest superhero is clear. But the life of a superhero-in-training is always changing. When it’s announced that the academy is doing an exchange program with Lord Inferno’s own school, everything at Valcav gets turned upside down, especially when Nick’s world-conquering father joins the Valcav staff. Still, it’s nothing Nick can’t handle.

With the defeat of the Triple Triad and the aftermath of their attack on Valcav, it's time for Nick and his classmates to start a new semester on Inferno Island with a show of solidarity and peace: A parade. But when a long-lost hero comes back with his army of robotic penguins to kill Nick’s father, any hope for peace is thrown on its head. If that wasn't all, Carter Academy and its villainous students are about to unleash a diabolical plan unlike any the world has ever seen.

Nick Gateon is the son of the world's greatest supervillain, and if he's going to make it in Valcav Academy for the Superhumanly Gifted, he's going to need a plan to become a hero.

He went searching for a fresh start. He didn’t expect to find unusual friends, fierce enemies, and primal powers. Jason thought that it was the end of his life after being hunted and attacked by a band of ruthless thugs. Instead, he tapped into the source of creation and emerged from his death experience with magical powers. As a new mage, Jason finds himself part of a wonderful - and dangerous - new supernatural world.

Twelve super powered schools. Three devastating events. Only one winner. The World's Finest tournament is coming, and with it comes the chance to truly show the world what you're made of. There's just one problem: for Nick and the rest of Valcav Academy to win, they'll not only have to work together but defeat a new challenger unlike any they have ever seen. And worse? Lord Inferno has entered his own team, and he's more determined than ever to bring Nick over to his side, even if he has to kill everyone at Valcav to do it.

The Gathering only lasted for seven days, but it ended up being a lot more of an adventure than Jason had expected. Now it’s time to head home. Jason learned a lot, and he’s eager to put that knowledge to use. If his ideas work, it could totally revolutionize how Sandy and the crew make charms—allowing them to heal, train, and defend the House even better than before. So when the rotten mages show up, Jason is still feeling confident in himself and his new knowledge. He’s a warrior mage now and stronger than ever before. What could possibly go wrong?

What if the last gods of light threw you into a fantasy world and gave you the power to learn every kind of magic and the ability to see the world like a role-playing game? And then, you attracted a trio of deadly and beautiful lady adventurers before your enemies banished you to a vast dimension of darkness to die?
