What is LitRPG?
LitRPG is a genre of fiction that combines the elements of a fantasy or science fiction story with the mechanics of a role-playing game. The protagonist's progress is often explicitly tracked through stats, levels, and character sheets, which are presented as part of the narrative. The world they inhabit may be a virtual reality, a parallel dimension, or a game-like reality, and their actions are directly tied to gaining skills, experience points, and loot. This unique blend of traditional storytelling and game mechanics appeals to readers who enjoy both fantasy adventures and video games.
This genre is my home turf, where I publish under my real name.
Dawn of the Eclipse
What if your midlife crisis came with stats, spells, and a dragon?
For whom is this series?
Dawn of the Eclipse is a darkly witty, emotionally rich LitRPG series that blends progression fantasy, system apocalypse, and philosophical depth. Perfect for fans of Cradle, He Who Fights with Monsters, and Defiance of the Fall, this is a story about power, identity, and the cost of rewriting your fate.
Alaric Nachtmoor is a forty-something data engineer with a sharp mind, a sharper tongue, and absolutely no business being a hero. But when the world ends in a flash of blue light and the System takes over, he’s thrown into a multiverse where survival means leveling up—or dying trying.
While the rest of humanity trains in safety, Alaric’s integration is broken. Alone, unarmed, and already targeted by shadowy forces, he must navigate a world of dungeons, dragons, and eldritch horrors with nothing but his wits, a growing arsenal of spells, and a tiny dragon companion who might be smarter than he is.
As Alaric grows in power, so do the questions. What is the System really? Who—or what—is the Adversary? And why does the line between man and monster keep getting harder to see?
So far, this series contains 3 books, but the plan is to conclude the series in 5, possibly 6 books.
