The Savior Complex Series by Ssëa McNicoll

It’s all fun and games till someone you love dies…as long as you consider training and torture synonyms for fun and games.I was created for one reason; to save the Earth from the invading gods who wished to drain it until it was nothing but a lifeless husk.

The problem was, I didn’t know who the gods were. So my mentors— a race of oracles who had been cursed to live as animals over two decades ago-- decided it was a good idea to take the socially stunted, forest-raised girl and thrust her into an elite academy in order to befriend and obtain information on a few potential gods.Seeing as I had been trained to wake at a whisper and stab at a moment’s notice, and I had no idea how to interact normally with people, my integration into society went about as smoothly as a fawn trying to stand for the first time. That was, until I was adopted by a few friends who accepted me (almost) without question.With their help, and the help of a necromancer, thief, vampire, and Death, (don’t ask, it’s complicated) my search for the gods progressed.But when someone close to me was killed by one of the gods I should have vanquished, things I thought I knew became distorted, and I wondered how much of what I had been told was true. Please note this is a PNR reverse harem novel with MM where the FMC will not have to choose between her love interests.While this is not a dark romance, please be aware there are a few triggers that are mentioned at the beginning of the book.Multiple characters have a play on (although not always 100% medically accurate) mental illnesses, such as Alzheimer’s, ADHD, depression, OCD, D.I.D., autism, schizophrenia, and a smattering of insanity. less

Nothing is going the way it was supposed to.I had foolishly assumed that just because I was The Chosen One, prophesized to save the world, that it meant that things were going to move that way in a more-or-less linear fashion.Jokes on me, because not only is my best friend, the one who was supposed to be by my side till the very end now a ghost who can't remember which way is up, but just trying to obtain a meeting with Council of Supernaturals has proven to be next to impossible... moreNothing is going the way it was supposed to.I had foolishly assumed that just because I was The Chosen One, prophesized to save the world, that it meant that things were going to move that way in a more-or-less linear fashion.Jokes on me, because not only is my best friend, the one who was supposed to be by my side till the very end now a ghost who can't remember which way is up, but just trying to obtain a meeting with Council of Supernaturals has proven to be next to impossible. Not to mention the fact that Jasper, the vampiric professor, who is unreasonable on a good day and loathsome on a bad, won't seem to leave me alone. The god of death also seems to be hanging around for some reason, but if Jasper is an unreasonable cad, then trying to make sense of Death and his actions is like trying to see through a brick wall. Every time we meet with outside forces things seem to escalate, and I begin to wonder if the path that was chosen for me is the one I really want to be on. less

I was done following the rules and letting others direct my life.Unfortunately, my supposed purpose in life currently coincided with what I had to do to keep me and my men safe. Morke was leading us on a merry chase across the country and no matter what we attempted, he was always one step ahead of us. The only positive about it all was the fact that my men were there by my side with me.Until they weren't, and then all bets were off... moreI was done following the rules and letting others direct my life.Unfortunately, my supposed purpose in life currently coincided with what I had to do to keep me and my men safe.

Loxley lost control to his animal, Jasper was on the verge of going on a killing spree with no end in sight, Misha was suffering some debilitating side effects as my Sol, and Death--- well, never mind him. He didn't matter anymore. I wished Karu was here. less
