THE THRONE OF THE BROKEN GODS: VEYRION'S REBELLION

When a battle-hardened soldier from a dying Earth is pulled through a portal by nine divine beings, he expects death—not a front-row seat to their entertainment. Veyrion awakens in Eclipsera, a celestial realm where gods watch mortal worlds like gladiatorial games. Their offer is simple: become the new Demon Lord of their experimental kingdom, play your role, and when the hero finally kills you, earn a place among them. Veyrion refuses. But gods don't take rejection well. Thrown into a world where humans and demons slaughter each other for divine amusement, Veyrion must survive using nothing but his tactical mind and a mysterious chain-cane that transforms at his will. As he carves a path through enemies who don't know whose side he's on, he catches the attention of the one god the others fear—Selynth, the Ninth, whose power was sealed by betrayal.
