Defying Divinity

James has no idea why he was ripped from his life as a paramedic and transported to a strange new world with rules like those of a video game. He must adapt quickly. With only a vague quest, a mysterious brand, and promises of help from a cantankerous old lady, James must level up into the warrior this world needs — venturing to the Dwarven City high in the Crimson Mountains in pursuit of the first clue.

He escaped slavery. He defeated the Lich. But will he survive the arena? Locked in a cell beneath the Colosseum, James refuses to be a pawn anymore. He needs to rescue his friends and escape his captors — but it won't be easy with the entire city out to get him.
