Rift Warrior #5 The Doppelgangers
When Dane Tanner steps through a one-way portal into the forest world of Trond, he expects another hostile colony to clean up. What he finds instead is the start of an interstellar war. A colony where no one can be trusted—because anyone might already be replaced.
The Selk have been hiding on Trond for a decade. These ancient aliens don’t invade. They duplicate—absorbing humans and creating perfect biological copies that walk, talk, and remember everything the originals did.
Somewhere in the fungal darkness, an entity wearing the face of a woman Tanner once loved is waiting for him. She finds Tanner’s violence fascinating. Because the Selk aren’t conquerors. They’re refugees, fleeing something called the Convergence—a cosmic void that devours civilizations. Something that human technology is drawing closer to with every colonization of a new world.
Now Tanner faces an impossible choice: destroy the Selk nests and trigger a massacre of the colonists they’ve infiltrated? Or negotiate with monsters who’ve been replacing humanity for years?
Either way, a fight is coming. And Earth just announced war on a big part of the galaxy.
Discover what lurks in the forests of Trond in THE DOPPELGANGERS, the pulse-pounding 5th book of the RIFT WARRIOR series. With millions of copies sold, USA Today Bestselling author B. V. Larson delivers his most paranoid SF military adventure yet.

Centauri War (Pax Solis Book 4)
Humanity reaches for the stars—and something reaches back.
Lieutenant Commander Alex “Flex” Callahan leads Operation Magellan, humanity’s first mission beyond the solar system. As the only Pathfinder who can navigate the dimensional rivers between stars, he must guide an uneasy alliance of humans, Lizards, and Vraath warriors to Alpha Centauri. Their goal: establish a foothold among alien suns before their enemies can stop them.
But The Cure has not forgotten its defeat at Venus. The crystalline horror that sought to “perfect” humanity has been waiting, building, spreading through the Centauri system like a cancer. Now Flex must fight a war on two fronts—against an enemy that corrupts everything it touches, and against the political forces that would sacrifice the mission for their own gain.
When The Cure launches its final assault, Flex faces an impossible choice: retreat and abandon Earth’s dream of reaching the stars, or strike at the heart of the enemy’s power in a dimension where no one can survive.
CENTAURI WAR is the fourth pulse-pounding installment in the Pax Solis series—where humanity’s greatest triumph could lead to its destruction.

KillQuest: A litRPG Adventure
Earth is now a hardcore PvP server. No respawns. No logout. No mercy.
Alien ships appear over every major city, but they don’t attack—they implement a “game.” If you accept their quests and level up, you can gain superhuman powers. If you refuse, you’re an NPC.
Corey Anderson knows he’s screwed. He’s got zero prospects, and he just watched his girlfriend abandon him for the elite Crimson Fist guild. But when the local guild alpha tries to force him into the game, Corey discovers something unexpected—he might actually be good at this.
Form a Guild with your friends to face:
Unique Quest System: Where the NPC vendor known as the Ice Cream Man controls your fate
Brutal Zone Progression: From city dungeons to alien-warped wilderness
Guild Politics: PvP where the fights get dirty
Raid Bosses: That require actual strategy, not just DPS races
The Grand Tournament: Where the top 32 players reshape reality itself
But in a game where your mistakes cost actual lives and the tutorial boss can literally rip you apart, Corey must prove that teamwork beats raw power—before humanity’s forced into Season Two.
KILLQUEST is a dark, character-driven LitRPG that asks: What happens when the NPCs are aliens, the PvP is mandatory, and the only way to save the world is to beat the game?
Perfect for readers who:
Love underdog guild stories
Want meaningful character development alongside progression
Enjoy strategic combat over pure power fantasy
Appreciate when actions have permanent consequences
Miss the brutal difficulty of classic MMO raiding
Book 1 of the KILLQUEST series. No harem. No OP protagonist. Just pure strategic guild warfare in humanity’s darkest hour.

Demon World Book #24 Undying Mercenaries On Audible for pre-order!
When Earth’s colonies go silent, Legion Varus drops onto Kepler-62 expecting a routine investigation. Instead, they find something far worse than death.
The colonists aren’t dead—they’re changed. A new kind of enemy has arrived in Province 921, microscopic invaders that transform humans into perfectly coordinated killing machines. These “Demon” parasites don’t just control minds, they improve them, creating an army that works with terrifying efficiency.
As cities fall and soldiers turn against their own, Centurion James McGill discovers he’s mysteriously immune to infection. But immunity comes with a price. To save humanity from becoming pawns of a new Galactic species, McGill must navigate a web of seduction, betrayal, and impossible choices.
Some invasions come with warships. Others come with a whisper, a touch, and a promise of something better. The question is: what happens when the enemy might be right?
DEMON WORLD is the latest action-packed entry in B.V. Larson’s bestselling Undying Mercenaries series.
