His first task was to survive. Now, Jace must save the only people he’s ever cared for.

Back in his old life, Jace was a loner. He didn’t need friends or community, and judging by his romantic failures, he didn’t need a girlfriend either. Or more accurately, any girlfriends he managed to attract quickly found they didn’t need him. But now, everything has changed.

Yanked from that old life and shoved into a harsh world governed by game rules, Jace has built the first true home he’s ever known. Ironstead, a settlement on an outcrop overlooking a savage coast, is a refuge in a dangerous land. The villagers call him their leader. Mackenzie, the woman of his dreams, calls him whatever she pleases, because there’s no arguing with her spunky smile or quick temper. And Jace is pleased to look around the nightly campfires, and realize he can call these people “friends.”

But like a dark tide seeping up through beach cobbles, evil magic is slowly flooding the region. Barricaded in the region’s stronghold, a fortress called Graymist Hold, a crazed and power-hungry woman summons the darkness. The region is doomed unless Jace and his friends can figure out a way to stop her.

Join the newest adventure.
