Liam, an overworked programmer, dies at his desk after another sleepless night fixing bugs for the hit VRMMO game 'Boundless Realms' but instead of fading into nothingness, he awakens inside the very world he helped create trapped not as a player, but as Adrian Black, a mid-level villain doomed to be crushed by players in the future.
Armed with the info about the game, Liam refuses to follow the script.
He won’t be the disposable stepping stone that heroes trample on.
He won’t bow to gods, players, or fate itself.
With black samurai armor, a katana in hand, and a burning will to survive, Adrian Black will defy the storyline, steal the power meant for heroes, and carve his own legend into the Boundless Realms.
But gods don’t forgive thieves, players don’t tolerate broken NPCs and villains don’t get happy endings…
Will Liam rewrite destiny as Adrian Black, or will the world he built bury him twice?
