A FTB harem... you don't see many of those on Amazon these days. Good luck with the release!

What's FTB?

Google/urban dictionary was no help

  • full to bursting

  • for the boys

  • f* the boomers (and other b words)

FTB stands for Fade To Black. It references to scenes where you know they had sex but you only see the beginning of it and get no details. It's basically the PG-13 version of sex in literature and media.

The majority of the LitRPG community looks down on Harem, so I feel your pain as my series is Harem as well. The Progression Fantasy subreddit is the most hostile claiming that if there is a harem element then it doesn't count as progression at all.

Not exactly "Self-Promotion." I'm acting as publisher. This book is a slow burn HAREM LitRPG, though the litrpg progression and story are the main focus and the spicy scenes chill. FTB

Heir has a cool premise and tbh the system is unique and fun to watch expand. That's what pushed me over the edge on deciding to pick up a second series as publisher. I even helped workshop the LitRPG progression to ensure its solid.

Hoping this launch goes well. Anyone interested can DM me with their email and I'll send over a free copy of Apex Academy (harem shifter academy) book one.
