Project Chrysalis

D38/100

eBook by John Gold

Status unknown2018

Chrysalis is the project of the century: a hyper-realistic fantasy RPG where government orphans are placed in virtual families to receive the love and upbringing they never had. It's designed to mold children into healthy adults. Something went very wrong for twelve-year-old Anji. Instead of loving parents and simple lessons, he finds himself in Hell — performing bloody rituals, evading demons, and fighting to survive the nine circles of the game's most forsaken place. Betrayed for the sake of someone else's plan, he has nothing left but rage and the knowledge that the truth behind Project Chrysalis is far darker than anyone realizes.

#1 Gestation

Goodreads4.14· 711

Chrysalis is a hyper-realistic fantasy RPG where government orphans are placed in virtual families to receive the love and care they've never had. Twelve-year-old Anji expected a loving home. Instead, he was betrayed and dropped into Hell — performing bloody rituals to survive demons and flesh-eating worms in the game's most hopeless corner. Fueled by homesickness and revenge, Sagie — Anji's in-game name — will go through Hell to face whatever is hidden in the darkest corners of Project Chrysalis. The truth about the project is stranger and darker than any player knows.

#2 End of an Era

Goodreads4.33· 458

Anji has faced Death himself and walked over Hell's fire fields, and his crusade is far from over. Choosing to start over was the easy way out — not an option for him. To face a world of powerful guilds, raid bosses, and gods with his head held high, Anji will use every piece of forbidden magic he can find, even if it means becoming something people fear more than Death. Meanwhile, the world of Chrysalis stands on the edge of a new era as ancient gods unleash hordes of undead against the guilds of mortals.

#3 Sleeping Player

Goodreads4.40· 385

Five years of peace have followed the war with the undead — but now war raises its sword again. A demon invasion threatens the home LJ the cat has spent years protecting, while new high-level wanderers prepare to confront the threat or cause further destruction. Somewhere, the wanderer from Castle Airis is still being hunted. It is time to wake up.

#4 Limitless

Goodreads4.24· 305

Determined to bring back everyone he's lost, Sagie returns for a final crusade — and only Death can help him complete it. The truth about Project Chrysalis is about to be revealed: what began as a children's welfare program has become something far more dangerous, and the destiny of humanity will be decided in the last battle against the project's most mysterious and powerful figure.

#5 Journey Never Ends

Goodreads3.95· 116

After the battle with the keepers, the founding members of the Society of the First People use alien technology to travel into a different world — the twenty-first century, where no virtual reality exists. In this world, strange devices divide people into classes and grant access to technology beyond imagination. Adrok Halderi begins his path on July 4, 2025, surviving a terrorist massacre at a stadium and resolving to stop the group responsible — not through violence, but by healing and changing the world with the advanced technology that falls into his hands.

#6 The Path of Faith

Goodreads4.28· 92

The Ocean of Chaos has flooded Earth, leaving no survivors in its wake. Guided by the Society of the First People, the remnants of humanity flee into the new world of Karn — a place of powerful magic, floating continents, and an all-pervasive System. Sagie makes his own way there through a far less straightforward path.
