Swords, Spells, Stats and Slaughter!
Mark wakes up in a burning town inside a Full Immersion Virtual Reality RPG called Reign of Blood. He flees from the reiver slavers who are abducting the village's NPCs, only to have an agonizing encounter with the wrong end of a ranger's arrow. After trying and failing to log out of this painfully realistic game, Mark decides to take up his sword, embrace his new Warlock character class, and help the ranger rescue her people.
The warlock and his hard-nosed ranger companion are soon joined by a macabre healer, an earth-shaking druid and a talking fortress. But as Mark takes the fight to the reivers, he uncovers an even deadlier threat. Dark magic is spreading into Garland from a long dead city, and the reiver leader has found a way to harness some of that corrupted power for himself.
Level by level, spell by spell, Mark must become the warlock that Garland needs before it falls to the corrupted ambitions of a rising tyrant.
Includes a bonus short story! Bloody Minded
Follow our sharp-tongued ranger, Dayna of Elmtree, as she and a party of fellow rangers search the Barrens for their missing comrade. You'll learn how Dayna came by Wayfarer's diary and why she was the only ranger to make it back to Garland alive.
