Metagamer Chronicles

If Gary had known he'd get trapped in an RPG with his real-life stats, he'd have tried harder in gym class. Gary Burns just wanted to create the greatest RPG campaign of his gaming career. But a freak magical accident sucks him into the very world he created-as himself. Surrounded by heroes who look and sound like his friends, Gary is forced to play out the story he wrote.

Games were made to be broken. Gary Burns has been kidnapped, thrown in a dungeon, and tortured for information. Worst of all, he's been separated from his friends, so no one even knows where to look for him. Cut off from his support network, Gary uses the only tools at his disposal: a silver tongue and an insider's knowledge of the game world that's second to none. With a makeshift party of former foes, Gary must not only escape his captor but plan for payback. Because nothing passes the time in a dank, lightless prison cell like plotting revenge. And when your adversary is a centuries-old lich with the might of an army at his disposal, death is a starting point, not a victory.

The difference between a hero and a tyrant is charisma. Fresh off their defeat of the lich's army, Gary and his friends find themselves preparing for an even larger threat. While unlocking elder magic gave them the juice they needed to turn aside one foe, it unstoppered the bottle holding back an ancient evil. Gary knows what's coming because he wrote it. Now, with political responsibilities crushing him from one side and a demonic army looming on the other, Gary must balance the necessity of victory with the means to achieve it. After all, what good is saving a kingdom only to become the villain? Hero Time puts the RPG into LitRPG, taking the ever-growing GameLit genre back to its tabletop roots.
