In SerialTransient - COMPLETED! Fantasy Sci-fi Action Adventure Virtual Reality
A Fresh Take On Some Of The Most Well-Loved LitRPG Staples - And A Whole New Original World To Explore!
Alex is a twenty-something college dropout who's not going anywhere too fast - but not for lack of smarts.
When he faces jailtime for using a stolen credit card number, he's given a seedy but interesting alternative:
Delve into the virtual reality world of Elderpyre and provide the developers with anonymous playtest data.
Things, however, are never that simple - are they?
A love letter to the genre as a whole, Transient breathes new life into some old - and, arguably, tired - tropes and staples, and takes them for a wild ride into a fresh, original story.
Combine that with a vibrant fantasy setting, a lively cast of characters, and grammar that actually won't make your eyes bleed*, and you got yourself a webnovel that's definitely worth checking out!
*The author does not bear any responsibility with respect to breakdowns or damages, including but not limited to those resulting from bad puns, 4th wall breaks, surprisingly dark twists, and the occasional typo. Consider yourself warned.
