Scorio's indomitable will is all that's keeping him going.
For victory has been purchased at too high a cost. Haunted by the ghosts of friends and lovers fallen, he must rekindle the will to fight, unmask the monsters and manipulators who have deceived the Great Souls for centuries, and finally bring the answers to light.
Answers, he knows, which lie hidden in the depths of the legendary Lost Cube.
Scorio will rise from the ashes to conquer the ten layers of hell.
Reborn without memories, Scorio learns that he is a Great Soul, a legendary defender of the ancient city of Bastion. That within the hallowed halls of the Academy and under the stern eyes of the underworld’s greatest instructors he will enjoy enormous privilege, rediscover unique and wondrous powers, and one day return to the millennium-old battle against their infernal foes.
Until he is betrayed. Singled out and sentenced to die for crimes he can't remember, Scorio is hurled to his doom—and forgotten.
But from even the dimmest spark an inferno may one day rage.
Clawing his way back from oblivion, Scorio vows to return to the Academy at any cost. To emerge from the ruins and within those golden walls defeat his elite classmates in a quest to ascend the ranks and change the course of history. For only then will he learn about his forgotten past, and why his enemies have rightly feared him since the day he was reborn.
Even with his immense new power, James comes to realize that he is still playing into the hands of the System.
If they are to free earth and redeem the billions dead, James and his crew will have to do more than journey into the Pits of hell or slaughter countless armies of demons - they'll have to find the god-like forces orchestrating the apocalypse, break every rule, and utterly defeat them.
This is the final installation in the Dawn of the Void trilogy. Discover the exciting end to James's desperate attempts to save humanity before the unleashing of the Void.
Audiobook to be released on 11/7/23.
The countdown to Nemesis 3 has begun, pushing humanity closer to the brink of extinction. James and his team are now Earth's last line of defense amidst the chaos of New York City.
But with each Nemesis wave they defeat and each power James unveils, a grim truth unfolds: they're being manipulated. The enemy not only predicts their actions, it feeds on them. Their struggle may be nothing more than a sinister game or a prelude to annihilation.
To stand a chance, they must rewrite the rules. In the dwindling light of hope, James embraces his role as a leader. Tough decisions, impossible sacrifices, and the weight of the world on his shoulders — he'll face it all. But how much of himself will he lose himself in the process?
The audiobook narrated by Tom Taylorson will be available on 8/23/23.
Tragedy had reduced James to a nobody. Washed up and homeless in NYC, he thought his life was over.
Then a message appeared in his vision:
60,000 year countdown has ended
Nemesis 1 released
Please acknowledge
As the world falls apart, as billions die, as society collapses and all hope seems lost, James discovers a powerful truth: he was wrong to think himself a nobody. Summoning every ounce of grit and determination, he'll help forge a resistance that will defy humanity's near omnipotent enemy by taking the fight from the streets of NYC to the stars themselves.
And with the dawn of the Void, he'll become the most important person to have ever lived.
Scorio thought victory was within his grasp. He had bested the Final Gauntlet and overcome the treachery of Chancellor Praximar. But the Rascor Plains are full of peril, and his quest for truth has only just begun.
With his friends scattered and his reputation in tatters, Scorio must navigate a web of intrigue that stretches from the powerful House Hydra and the Fiery Shoals to the mysterious forces that govern the Plains. He will face foes both human and inhuman, and confront the darkest secrets of his world.
Beware the fiends, for they hunger for your soul. Beware your allies, for they may break your heart. And beware Scorio, for he will stop at nothing to uncover the truth.
Scorio has won his vengeance. His foes lie vanquished, his skeptics silenced. Yet, as the powers of hell watch eagerly, Scorio and Naomi spurn those who would recruit them, and venture into the untold depths of hell in search of the enigmatic Herdsmen. Amidst landscapes of haunting beauty and terror, they will face terrible fiends, forge friendships with wondrous new allies, and encounter societies of Great Souls to put the worst of hell to shame. All will seek to manipulate Scorio. To use him. To bend him to their will. And all will suffer the consequences for trying. The LastRock audiobook by Nick Podehl is slated for a June '24 release.
I sacrificed everything for my family. It wasn't enough. I lost my mother, and now I'm about to lose my brother.
I've got only one thing left to gamble: my life. Which is why I'm willing to play Euphoria Online in Death March mode.
If I survive six months in-game against a lethal array of wyverns, ogres, necromancers, and more, I'll earn my brother a pardon.
If I lose?
Well. I'm done with losing.
I've managed to survive my first week in Euphoria Online. But I couldn't have done it without my new friends. Lotharia. Falkon. The Green Liver goblins.
But now Lotharia's gone missing. Swallowed by that nightmare keep. Lost to the darkness.
Everyone's telling me that going after her is madness. That I don't have a chance in hell.
But I'm not the kind of guy to turn my back on my friends.
Damn the odds.
I'm going to find her.
I'm entering the endgame.
Even as I gain new allies, new gear, and greater understanding of Albertus' true plans, the odds are growing more extreme.
Whom can I trust? What is the AI Albertus Magnus trying to accomplish? What happened to archmagus Jeramy, and why is Guthorios massing an undead army so vast that it stretches from horizon to horizon?
Any sane player would quit. Any reasonable person would admit defeat.
But I've got no choice.
I'm going to see this battle through to its bitter end. I'm going to unearth the secrets behind Euphoria Online - or die trying.
