What Lurks Between
The world has always had monsters. It just never told you about them.
Rowan Blake woke up in a dead man's body — a man who poisoned himself believing he was worthless. In a world where power is everything and abilities are the currency of survival, being unawakened is a death sentence. Rowan should know. He read about this world once, in a book called Has the Heavens Left Us Now? He knows how the story ends. He knows who dies. He knows what's coming.
What he didn't expect was to be thrown right into the middle of it.
Armed with an ability the world has never seen — and wouldn't understand even if it could — Rowan steps into a world of towers, dungeons, and realm portals, where adventurers chase glory and monsters chase blood. But underneath it all, something older and darker stirs. Something the world doesn't have a name for yet.
Good thing Rowan deals in things without names.
Urban legends. The fears cities whisper in the dark. The monsters that live between belief and reality.
He can't fight like other awakened. He has no elemental power, no superhuman strength. What he has is far stranger — and far more dangerous. The legends come to him. And as their stories grow, so does he.
The world thinks it knows its monsters.
It has no idea what lurks between.
