World of Combat: A Dystopia Gamelit Series Sci-fi Martial Arts Slice of Life
In her world, single combat decides everything.
It's her sixteenth birthday and Kiriai has a big decision to make. Will she fight for her dream to battle in the arena? Or buckle under her grandfather’s pressure to become a healer?
Her best friend Eigo is an outcast from his scrounger family. On a recent expedition into the wastelands, he found a peculiar birthday gift for Kiriai—an AI trainer from a centuries-old, martial arts game. Could it give her the advantage she needs? Will Kiriai win the fight that decides her future?
An impossible deadline, a persuasive mentor, and her own family all stand in Kiriai’s way. If she loses, she’ll be consigned to a mundane life, but more importantly, banned from the arena forever. Kiriai can't let that happen.
Combat Origin is the first book in the World of Combat, young adult, dystopia series. If you like strong heroines, gamelit/litrpg and a good brawl, keep reading.
Author note: I just discovered the Royal Road community and decided to jump in and participate.
I posted Combat Origin, Book 1 during Nov and Dec of 2019 (before moving it to Amazon), followed by the short story prequel that gave backstory on two of the main characters. (non-Gamelit - because the gaming AI hasn't been found yet)
Now, Book 5 has been finished and posted on Amazon, which allows me to leave a 10% sample here. The books are all free to read, If you have Kindle Unlimited.
Please comment, ask questions, offer suggestions or just say hi. I'm hoping to connect with readers and improve my storytelling.

A Savage's Journey
Jason Walker, a psych major, has been transported to another world. Quite frankly he isn't prepared. No experience in fighting, no idea how to control mana, and no proper clothes. Only his wits, which are in short supply, and his luck may see him through the day. This is my first novel ever. First ever time writing so I'll definitely be listening to any constructive criticism you guys have to offer. I'll even pay attention to straight up criticism if I can see some merit in it. I hope you all enjoy.
8 223A Wish
This is a story where there are no heroes and no villains. This is a tale about revenge, despair, and hope. This is a story where the truth is constantly hidden deep beneath the surface, and nothing is ever as it initially appears. The world is a stage. Every character has their part to play before their exit. They are actors, dancing on a stage set for them while searching for the truth behind the façade. Only time will tell whether they will be able to escape their predestined fate, to search for their happy end, or whether the promised end is nothing more than, a wish. Author's Note: Update will be very unpredictable as I travel quite a bit for my work.
8 162Delvers
Meet the Delvers, a small community of humans that have been selected for entry in the dungeons that lay beneath the surface of our world. By clearing objectives they can gain money and power, but should they fail all will be revoked. This story follows these Delvers as it switches between various POVs and their adventures both inside and outside the dungeons. So grab some food and gear and enter, there's plenty to gain. Provided for your viewing pleasure by Delvers Inc. Disclaimer: I am writing this series as a hobby. It is something that has been inside my head for a while and have wanted to do this for a while. I hope you enjoy, commentary is always welcome. I hope to be updating this series semi-regularly as I continue.
8 92The Citadel of Stairs, The Armory Book One
A band of five mercenaries serve a dead god across scattered lands of powers and principalities, answering to no allegiance or authority but their own, and the needs of their dead god's afterlife. To power their heaven's dying mechanisms they must kill and send those stolen souls above so that their god's refugee faithful have a place to go when they die, even if all that's left to them is an eternity of waiting. There is no peace for this five. No rest. There is only the next job. Cover Art Credit: Dan Mandell
