Unexpected Healer
Something went wrong. Something went very wrong….
Against his will, Thaden was transported elsewhere in a big flash of light along with millions of other Humans from Earth, to a place where they would train to become Contenders in a whole new world. Unfortunately for him, something occurred during his transference into the “Training” program, and he was ejected from the whole training process and sent into the open mouth of an active volcano for bodily disposal.
Through a miraculous and horrifying series of events, Thaden managed to survive, only to find himself alone in the middle of a dungeon with no clothes, no weapons, and no way to defend himself. Worst of all, the strange new Assimilation System automatically assigned a Class to him without his knowledge, which ended up sticking him with a Support-based Class that has absolutely no offensive capabilities. As an Assistant Healer, none of his spells did any damage and he couldn’t even pick up a weapon to defend himself if he wanted to!
But all hope isn’t lost, as Thaden quickly learns something unique about himself that might just allow him to survive long enough to escape the dungeon. Sure, all his new magical spells might be focused on healing and protection, but what does it mean when he seemingly won’t ever run out of Mana…?
This story contains an overpowered MC with a normally non-combat Class, LitRPG progression mechanics and stats, and isekai/portal fantasy elements. Contains no sexual content or harems.

Jonathan Brooks
In the fast-evolving realm of LitRPG and Dungeon Core fiction, few names have carved out territory as boldly—or as prolifically—as Jonathan Brooks. Known for weaving complex magic systems with the logic of game mechanics, Brooks has become a touchstone for readers who crave fantasy grounded in strategy, growth, and immersive world-building.
It all began with Dungeon Player in 2017, a debut that hinted at the intricate worlds and evolving systems that would become his signature. But Brooks didn’t stop there. He’s since written more than 70 novels, building expansive series like Dungeon Crafting, Magical Fusion, and Earthen Contenders, each exploring what it means to level up—whether as a character, a dungeon, or a sentient core learning how to survive in hostile worlds. His latest venture, The Labyrinth World series, continues this evolution with a fresh spin on multiverse mechanics and layered storytelling.
Earthen Contenders
In a world where reality and gaming systems collide, Earthen Contenders offers a thrilling ride through a land filled with dungeon crawls, skill trees, and the constant pursuit of power. But in this unique LitRPG series, it’s not just about leveling up—it’s about survival, strategy, and self-discovery in a universe governed by unforgiving rules.
Earthen Contenders consists of six books — considered a complete series. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
