The hit LitRPG fantasy series, AWAKEN ONLINE, is now in hardcover for the very first time and widely distributed with, CATHARSIS (Awaken Online, Book 1)! Loner. Outcast. Villain. Jason logs into Awaken Online fed-up with reality. He's in desperate need of an escape, and this game is his ticket to finally feeling the type of power and freedom that are so sorely lacking in his real life. Awaken Online is a brand new virtual reality game that just hit the market, promising an unprecedented level of immersion. Yet Jason quickly finds himself pushed down a path he didn't expect. In this game, he isn't the hero. There are no damsels to save. There are no bad guys to vanquish. In fact, he might just be the villain. The first book in the hit LitRPG Fantasy series with hundreds of thousands of copies sold and now spanning 14 novels. Grab your copy of Awaken Online now and get ready to sink into some good old fashioned undead mayhem.
