Book Description
In virtual reality, nothing is for real. Fake orcs pretend to fight phony elves. Priests go through the motions of casting blessings. Wizards defeat their enemies with digital illusions of combat spells. Still, every game is only a part of something much bigger. Human nature doesn't change. People will always find a way to take advantage or even hurt someone, even if that someone ends up suffering real losses or dying the ultimate death in real life. I'm John Doe, a necromancer and guardian of the dead. Still, this is only my game persona. Just an illusion. In reality, I'm a sleuth forced to follow a trail of clues. And to make it even worse, my employers' interests aren't limited to the game alone...

Book Description
The next book of the series is available for preorder! The Nemesis of the Living (An NPC's Path Book #5): https: //www.amazon.com/dp/B08X2VG3ZP Dying in virtual reality isn't fun, but facing bullets from real-world criminal overlords is really the pits. In such a desperate scenario, their demand to render them a service in VR doesn't sound like such a bad alternative. The problem is, the games played by spook agencies follow much harsher rules. For them, the absence of choice doesn't sound like a good excuse - not if you end up in the grindstones of their undercover schemes. Still, it's not as if I ever had a choice. That's why the price tag for my freedom didn't sound too excessive. All I had to do was log in, become a necromancer, shake the malefic hunters off my tail, pass the elimination test and locate one particular person. Which one? Why? And how was I supposed to do it? Wrong questions. Instead, I had only to ask one: why me? Why John Doe?

Book Description
Putting the Grand Quest behind them, the party rides onward in search of answers. Between one member's unexpected new condition and the mysteries of the Bridge, their only hope appears to be gaining entrance to Lumal, said to hold the greatest collection of knowledge in all the kingdoms. But when a curious path appears in a seemingly uninhabited forest, the party finds themselves in a place set apart from the kingdoms, and the world at large: a hidden hamlet, filled by unusual people, all of whom have long histories of their own. Soon sealed inside the town by unseen forces, the former NPCs will have to uncover what brought them there --and who is keeping them trapped-- while there's still time to fight back. Because something more is brewing, something involving the very gods themselves. With unknown enemies to the front and supposed allies at their rear, the party will need more than their usual tricks if they hope to see the outside world once more.

What's more, the leaders of the other guilds, the Thief Lords, don't respond well to treachery...
