It has been two years since the Shift — when most technology stopped working and the laws of physics changed. Humanity has been brought to its knees. Like other survivors, Noah Henson has heard rumors of the Aelves, who seem as good an explanation as any for what caused the Shift. But for Noah, survival comes first — sometimes even before self-respect. Lawless, post-apocalypse America has forced him to make many difficult decisions, and he has never seemed to choose correctly. He will get a lucky break in a big way, though: a mysterious orb with otherworldly power. In time, perhaps Noah will find another path — and if he does die during the Shift, maybe it won't be the end of his story.

There he will join the standing Kadian Army and forge his name from the fires of legend — facing goblins, hordes of the undead, cultists, and demons.

Dash's great-grandfather was one of the Fifteen who saved humanity during the System Apocalypse, founding the corporations that now rule the solar system. That legacy should have been his — until his father was destroyed by corpo politics, leaving Dash with nothing but a single building on Earth 2.0. When Dash nearly dies, a broken System manifests: barely functional, stripped to the bones, but carrying the tinkerer's trait Hoqalo — letting him forge gear that punches far above its tier. The more he digs into why his System came out wrong, the more it looks like sabotage. Someone with corporate reach wanted the Kallum bloodline to stay down. With his hands, his tools, and friends willing to go to corpo hell and back, Dash sets out to steal his future back — with interest.

At thirty-two, an ordinary man gets his — along with a draft notice from the Department of Defense and ninety days before deployment to a dungeon.
