The next, he and ten million other humans are plunged into a new world of game-like systems, Classes, and skills. Success means a chance at claiming the Reality Engine on behalf of their species. Failure — which seems more likely — means death.  Armed with his grandpa’s revolver, a Gunslinger class and his stubborn determination, Shad will face every danger the reality engine can throw his way, from swamp gnomes to zombies to Al Capone’s goons.

And take the fight to the stars. Updates M-W-F.Soon to be an audiobook presentation from Podium!...
