And none too soon . . . because an interdimensional parasitic planet hangs above the Earth, releasing poison into the atmosphere and creating new monsters with its trailing toxins. As she prepares for battle, Jynn is given an obscure assignment by the System, sending her deep into the heart of the Josu Rainforest. Soon she finds herself stalked by hit men unafraid of pursuing their mark on either side of the Gate. She believes these men are somehow related to Kesstel, a handsome and powerful Hunter who seems to know more than he's letting on. But every time Jynn gets close to him, the assassins become even more aggressive. Meanwhile, she hears rumors of a mysterious cult that's supposedly searching for the same thing she is: a world on the other side of the Gate. Before she can determine the credibility of these reports, she receives a surprising invitation to one of the group's secret meetings. But are they friend or foe? The second volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series-with almost 600,000 views on Royal Road-now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

    A lone wolf cub struggling to survive mutates into a creature possessing unpredictable?even human?abilities in this grimdark fantasy adventure series. Somewhere in the toxic Bone Pits, where mechanical nightmares roam, an emaciated and wounded young wolf clings to life. Wracked with pain, driven by instinct, it crawls across the subterranean landscape, avoiding the unnatural horrors that dwell there and seeking sustenance while fending off rats, insects, and other vermin stalking it as prey. Then it encounters a deity who collects human souls and is astonished to discover a wolf, as its species has been extinct for centuries. The god spares the wolf, bestowing the wretched beast with the means to survive until it eventually acquires the power of heightened intelligence and the ability to alter its physiology, turning into a shapeshifting monstrosity. Part of an adventuring party scouring the tunnels, the elf Emhreeil was injured and left for dead. Blind and with broken limbs, she suffers in unbearable agony, waiting for her body to quit?or for something to devour her. When the wolf finds Emhreeil, it pounces on the opportunity to learn human speech from the pitiful being incapable of protecting herself. Now, Emhreeil is the wolf's de facto companion as it struggles to escape the Bone Pits, dragging her through the twisted labyrinth and fighting the vicious predators hiding in the shadows. And with every battle, the wolf evolves in self-awareness and cunning, mutating into a creature that nature never meant to breed . . .
