Viridian Gate Online: Cataclysm: A LitRPG Fantasy Adventure (The Viridian Gate Archives Book 1)

An extinction-level asteroid is blazing toward Earth. Collision, imminent. The world is doomed and only a select few lottery winners will be saved.

Unfortunately, Jack Mitchel—a down on his luck EMT from San Diego—isn’t one of those winners. 

Still, there might be a way for him to survive the impending cataclysm: a slim chance, requiring a radical leap of faith. Through a connection at Osmark Technologies, Jack’s acquired a NexGenVR capsule and with it, a one-way ticket to the brand-new, ultra-immersive, fantasy-based VRMMORPG, Viridian Gate Online. Taking that leap of faith, though, means permanently trapping his mind in the game, killing his body in the process. 

Worse, one in six die during the transition, and even if Jack beats the odds, he’ll have to navigate a fantastical world filled with vicious monsters, domineering AIs, and cutthroat players. And when Jack stumbles upon a secret conspiracy to sell off virtual real estate to the ultrawealthy—transforming V.G.O. into a new feudal dark age—the deadly creatures inhabiting Viridian Gate’s expansive dungeons will be the least of his concerns. 

If Jack can’t game the system, he’s going to be trading in a quick death for a long, brutal one …
