《Ancient Bones: The Changed Ones book 1 (Post-Post Apocalypse LitRPG)》This isn't quite the announce I wanted to do, but here it is
Advertisement
Final book 3 of the trilogy is like getting your wisdom teeth pulled.
(I know, I changed dentists twice already when they told me I needed to do that)
I tried a few things to get the writing flowing, and while I expected a new story to be it... it turns out my very first unfinished LitRPG is it. So, never say never, and while this doesn't help getting book 3 out right now, it means there is never an unfinished story.
While you're waiting for the last installment of the Changed Ones, you can check some old-school LitRPG where you have all kinds of shenanigans... and even first contact.
It's all there (wait, the link is in the author's note because you can't put a link in a main chapter)
The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.
See you on Silvergates, or hopefully here when Book 2 is completed.
Five years ago, the first Silvergate was found. At first, they called it a hoax. But since then, more and more people have entered the alternate dimension called Northworld, received their Interface, and gone on to real adventures. As it gained momentum, they called it a problem. Now, they call it a crime. But for nearly half a million people, it's now their real home.
Yearning. Escape. Duty. The reasons to go are many. Despite the criminalization of Silvergating, people still seek out their ticket to Northworld.
But for new Gaters Jasper Hill, Erika Haglund, and Henry Esteban, Northworld has surprises in store. Not every rumor is false, not every conspiracy theory is stupid. When the veil lifts for them, showing truths about Northworld that no one suspected, they may have difficulty making themselves heard.
And being trusted may mean the difference between life or exile forever.

Follow Grant Legate’s trials and tribulations through: Memories, Made, Realities, Crash, Together. Memories: A man broken by despair and depression, Grant Legate finds himself in a once-in-a-lifetime situation after receiving an Ultimate Edition copy of Continue Online. All he wishes for is a distraction from the thoughts plaguing his waking hours. He dives in headfirst, unknowing of the AIs intentions. They offer him the chance to play as one of their own, a NPC deserving of a proper send off. What he discovers during the journey shakes Grant to his very core. Made: No longer playing as a Local from the world of Continue Online, Grant Legate’s adventure can begin. The Voices offer him a unique title along with a test and reward. To start—he'll have to survive underground horrors, old girlfriends, become a warrior. To win—he must become an imp familiar and kill another player, one with a dozen tricks up his sleeve. Realities: Worried for his sanity after poor in-game choices, Grant Legate’s sister, Liz, blocks access to Continue Online. With no way around the restriction, he ventures into a new world—a VRMMO game based in space—called Advance Online. There he must help his companion AI, Hal Pal, overcome an identity crisis, race to the center of the universe to bring back his true love, and figure out where he stands on the scariest implication of all; AIs are bringing the dead to life. Crash: Grant’s prior adventures tie together and he finds himself back in Continue Online, as Hermes—in jail. He's forced to experience life as a digital convict and earn redemption points to gain his freedom. Each in-game death pushes his goal of helping his friends out of reach. The AIs Grant’s grown to love, trust—and sometimes fear—are facing extinction, he holds the key to their survival. Together: The game is no longer about adventures in a new world or exploring fantasy lands. Grant’s digital wife faces deletion, along with everyone else he cares for. He, and those who know this is more than a game event, search for clues to salvation left behind by the game's creators. Even if he finds them all, the Voices have one last task for their messenger. A sacrifice.
