Orcs don’t belong in space, but for Deckherd, it was his only path to freedom. His first day off-world went as badly as you'd expect: he met a sapient starship, failed his very first quest, and got lasered through the face. --- Aug. 3 2026 update: Escape from Reality, Book 1 of The Space Time Continuum, is now complete on my Patreon (for a very low introductory price). Book 2 will begin dropping chapters there soon. Thank you! --- If you love books like Cyber Dreams and Dominion of Blades, or the techno-magical adventures of playing Shadowrun with your appalling friends, then Escape from Reality is for you! Follow and favourite so you don’t miss a moment of the insanity. Books 1 and 2 fully written, working on the third. What to expect: -Multiple main characters, male and female POV -Progression LitRPG light, sci-fi fantasy, comedic satire with magitech, cybernetic upgrades and more -A system called The Space Time Continuum, created by the Cosmics to give mortals the opportunity to gain levels, abilities and power -A bad squid! A good dog! Magic! --- The tags are legit. There's a lot of swearing, a little light blasphemy, and a pretty decent amount of inuendo. The sexual content isn't graphic, nor is the violence. No AI in writing or art.
