Lo Fennrick has been through Hell—literally. Surviving the levels of the Tutorial has been hard enough. His body has taken beating after beating, and his mind has disintegrated numerous times over. But on top of all that, it seems the gods have voted on his removal from the game, which would condemn him to an unknown future. Their aversion is hardly unexpected. After all, he's already assassinated an emperor, murdered the king of Acheron, killed thousands of others, and eaten human flesh. Few would be disappointed if he suddenly exploded into a cloud of confetti.

When former MMORPG champion (and current indebted, isolated madman) Lo Fennrick joined the Tutorial, it seemed grit, dedication, and a willingness to kill were all he needed in order to beat each hellish floor. But as he enters the ashy wastes of this next one, he finds a familiar face awaiting him—alongside a challenge that might prove to be more than he can handle.

You're back? And you want to know what happened next? Well okay then, pull up a chair, and I'll tell you what went down in Minot. Yes. North Dakota. That Minot. Just goes to show not all the strange is confined to the big city. We went up there looking for the missing daughter of a friend of mine, and wound up neck-deep in trouble when instead of the missing girl, we found a drug ring. And a mind-controlled cult. Ruse did something stupid, Cougs got jealous, Kahni caused trouble, I got arrested again, and by the end of it, half the town was gunning for my hide.

The best steel is forged by the hottest fires and under the greatest pressures. So too, have the Kurdish Peshmerga been shaped by thousands of years of warfare and oppression. Now, for the first time in history, they have their own nation, and its a chance to live, grow, and develop as a unified people. But they are surrounded by hostile dictatorships intent on the destruction of their young republic.

After Nisti Khan’s return from her No Fail mission in Iran, she is celebrated as a savior of the young Kurdish Republic. However, their country has many enemies, and within weeks, they are on the brink of yet another war. When Syria invades, Nisti finds herself on the front lines of the most critical battle—defending the beating heart of their country, the capital city of Kirkuk.

Thanks to the General Ordnance Garment, or “GOG” combat suits, the Kurdish Republic’s military forces have defeated the Iranian armored columns. But now the theocratic dictatorship has a much more sinister plan to eradicate the newly formed Kurdish Republic.

The Kurdish Republic, equipped with revolutionary GOG armored combat suits, has survived invasion and avoided nuclear annihilation. But now the wider world is taking notice, and international forces conspire to not only crush the Kurdish military, but to eradicate the GOGs themselves. One young infantry soldier arrives at a quiet border post, only to find herself fighting a massive mercenary army. Two GOGs executing a deep reconnaissance discover the Republic faces overwhelming odds. A staff officer finds himself in command of a collapsing defense.

When an ancient demon called the Soulstealer takes him as its host, Nythan’s normal life is thrown into torturous chaos. The demon has only one demand - help it steal the souls of the living so that it might leave this world. A secret order known as the Ordo Solis has other plans. They’ve been chasing the Soulstealer one host at a time for thousands of years, and their sights are set on Nythan. Their oath is simple - kill the host, save the world.

The Soulstealer’s greatest power is that no one believes it exists…except Steven Carpenter. One of the last remaining members of the Ordo Solis—a thousand-year-old order sworn to kill the ancient demon—even his faith has begun to wane. But when he witnesses the return of the Soulstealer with his own eyes, belief quickly turns to grim reality. With the souls of the world at stake, Steven knows what he has to do—expose the Soulstealer. There’s just one problem, it knows it’s been discovered…and so do the nefarious cults sworn to the demon’s cause.

With local agents tasked to prepare for an evening presidential visit to downtown Boston, and with procedures requiring a response to any threat, can Ben, untrained in field work and relying only on his wits and intuition, uncover the deadly plot...in time to stop it?
