Fayroll

Step into a future, in which advanced technology creates a virtual world, with superior capabilities that allow players to experience real-world sensations. The popularity of the RPG game Fayroll is growing by the day, attracting millions of users to this alternate reality. What is the secret of Fayroll? What makes it so different from other games? Our protagonist, Harriton Nikiforov is an everyman - a binge drinking, tabloid column reporter who has settled for the humdrum of the everyday, with a job that pays the wages, a neurotic girlfriend who gives him migraines and a boss that gives him constant grief. Tasked with a new assignment, Harriton suddenly finds himself ripped away from his normal routine of Moscow society life, to a journalistic quest of sorts that leads him deep into the realm of the Virtual Gaming World of Fayroll. With explicit orders to write a series of fluff pieces on the game and its developers, he grudgingly accepts the assignment, but soon finds himself enthralled by the virtual fantasy world and its amazing quests, unpredictable challenges, and nearly endless possibilities. Harriton is reincarnated as a warrior named Hagen and becomes a full participant in the fantasy world, plunging into the exciting world full of action, quests, humor, legendary weapons and ancient secrets. He meets faithful and courageous comrades and outwits those who are trying to hunt him. In this world, the thirst for success and vanity of high-level players in pursuit of legendary objects spills into the real world, where high-stakes bets are made on the success of the virtual characters. Harriton, as Hagen, unwittingly enters into the Fayroll world where events and decisions that he makes in the virtual space start to deeply affect his own reality. His unpredictable character, perseverance, and excitement, attract the attention of powerful gamers and influential Moscow elite with a vested interest in Fayroll's outcome. It is not long before he realizes that this fantastic world, (created according to the best canons of cult games, Warcraft and Lineage), conceals many dangers. Can he pass all the tests? Fayroll is more than a novel, it's a brilliant synergy of fantasy fiction and online gaming. It gives the reader the best of both worlds. The first novel of the 13 part epic series Fayroll, has captivated Russian readers countrywide and was voted the 2014 new fantasy book of the year. Andrey Vasilyev's masterpiece 'More Than a Game' is now available to the English-speaking World. Join us in this breathtaking narrative that takes both its main character and the reader deep into the heart of the Virtual Gaming Universe and explore the Fantasy Series that has captured the imagination of the Slavic world.

Get ready for more epic battles, legendary artefacts, and incredible quests in the highly anticipated second Fayroll story. As Harriton's Fayroll articles spark interest and his career picks up, he remains Hagen the Warrior, but still, a lucky noob who stumbles across a highly coveted "hidden" quest. He must save the four Dryad sisters. Starting with Ogina in the East, he haphazardly begins his journey on the Long Road East only to realize that the game is beginning to affect his real life. He manages to come out of many dangerous situations unscathed; happily switching between two worlds; making new friends and facing foes along the way. But Harry is also forced to pursue a real-life mission inside the game world that shows the thin line between the two worlds is becoming much thinner. It is only a matter of time before he starts asking himself some hard questions. What if his luck runs out? Or, more importantly, is he playing his own game or is he being manipulated? He is going to find abandoned temples, visit the Cursed Village, fight the Serpent King of the Nagas, and deal with epic monsters, all of which is accompanied by clashes of swords and sorcery and epic clan wars. Action and adventure are hiding around every corner just waiting to be awakened.

Harriton's work has been very well received, and his new bosses are pleased with him. Seemingly everything is going well, as he enjoys visiting Fayroll more and more and spending time with his new girlfriend, Vika. But is everything as it seems? Can things stay so positive with him? After a visit from his ex-girlfriend's brother and a meeting with Raidion's Security, it seems the real world might be much more of a dangerous place for him than ever before. He will begin to question how deep he is in this whole project, but with support from his new girlfriend and his team working on The Fayroll Times, maybe everything will be fine? However, this is just outside of the game. In the game, he joins 'The Hounds' on a quest through the Northern Mountains and through the mines filled with terrifying and deadly creatures to continue his quest to find the Dryad Sisters, but not before making even more in-game enemies, meeting royalty, and saving kidnapped princesses.
