System Bound

Getting dragged into an alien world was not high on Elias Critchley's to-do list.

One moment, he's trying to avoid eye contact with people on the school bus. The next, he's suspended mid-air in a bizarre tutorial and dumped—naked—into a dangerous, System-bound world where survival is far from guaranteed.

With nothing but his sarcasm, stubborn streak, dry wit and a few skills from his old life, Elias must navigate a world that feels like the games he used to play… only now, dying doesn't come with a respawn.

His first party member? A girl from his previous life, and not one he liked. His second? A battle-happy axe enthusiast with more enthusiasm than survival instinct. Together, they face mutant rabbits, corrupted forests, and a System that clearly enjoys watching him suffer.

Elias didn't choose this game—but he'll level up on his own terms… or die trying.

Perfect for fans of Ice Lord, Arcane Ascension, He Who Fights with Monsters, and The Wandering Inn, this coming-of-age LitRPG adventure is packed with humour, heart, and just enough chaos to keep you listening.
