Rise of the new Lycans, Book 1.

His ordinary life was a lie. His destiny is to rule.

Konrad Miller believes his life is a predictable cycle of work and quiet yearning. But an earth-shattering revelation on his twenty-first birthday catapults him from a mundane existence into an ancient, hidden world of primal power, unbreakable bonds, and a destiny he never knew awaited him. He discovers he is Lycan, a werewolf of immense, latent potential, and more... he is the prophesied Alpha King, whose awakening will send ripples throughout the supernatural world.

As Konrad grapples with his startling transformations and the overwhelming surge of his new abilities, he finds his path unexpectedly intertwined with powerful and captivating women, each destined to play a crucial role in his new life and the formation of his pack. Learning to navigate his new world means understanding the complex dynamics of Lycan society, the sacred traditions of claiming, and the fierce loyalty that binds a pack together.

But the rise of a new Alpha King does not go unnoticed. Ancient forces stir, and hidden threats emerge, challenging Konrad’s claim and the very survival of his nascent pack. He must learn to control his wild instincts, master his burgeoning powers, and protect those who look to him for leadership. From the shadowed corners of his past to the imposing strongholds of Lycan power, Konrad’s journey is one of brutal awakenings, sensual discoveries, and the forging of a new dynasty.

Book 1 is a gripping, primal, and powerfully sensual saga of transformation, where an ordinary man must embrace an extraordinary destiny. It’s a story of fated connections, unbreakable loyalties, the intoxicating allure of raw power, and the courage to build a new world from the echoes of the old. As Konrad steps into his role as King, surrounded by those who pledge their allegiance, he must confront not only the external dangers to his reign but also the ancient, untamed heart of the beast within.

Paranormal

Rise of the New Lycans by B. B. Hartwich is a good paranormal fantasy. C. C. Kline did a great job with the narration. The story has action, excitement, mature moments, and more. The only problem is the main character is a simp, the things he does doesn’t make sense. I received a free copy of this book and I am voluntarily leaving a review. Highly recommend

A fresh take on Lycans that had me hooked

I’ve read a lot of paranormal books, but this one really stood out. Konrad starts off as this regular guy, and then his whole world flips when he finds out who he really is. I loved watching his transformation from clueless to powerful, especially as he tried to balance instincts, loyalty, and leadership. The mix of action, danger, and sensual moments kept me turning pages late into the night. It felt raw and exciting, and now I’m already waiting for the next book.

Its ok.

MC is a simp. Dude has no substance and goes with the flow. There is a point in the first chapter where the mc learns from his step milf that the girl he has dreamed about forever's mom had his mom and his dad murdered. The dad is explained away as culture custom/laws. Ok I can kinda, maybe see that. The story does not expand on his mom. Not even once.
Story is midlevel.
Book is 70% adult 30% story.
