Nothing Left to Lose

Welcome to The Last Integration series and New Earth! The current System is an underpowered copy due to everything connected to the original being erased by the Void; select members of the surviving realities merge into one expanded and unstable planet; everyone (including the System) is starting over; and the past refuses to stay in the past. I wrote this story as an introduction for new readers to the LitRPG genre. Book 1 Fate is aware of you. Nicholas lives through one of the worst weeks of his life and is reborn as Riven Mercer. His existence is now quantified through stats, skills, and abilities. This is an opportunity not just to survive, but to thrive… and he has ten minutes to figure everything out before a deadly monster swarm arrives. If Riven shifts Fate around too much, this new life could become worse than the old one. The best chance for answers lies in surviving long enough to complete an initial quest to rescue a stranger and walk the path of a potential Administrator for the System. Along the way, Riven kills a Queen, participates in a coup, fights for a village’s survival, and faces an overpowered Inhuman that controls the dead. Who will survive this last integration when there is Nothing Left to Lose? WHAT TO EXPECT - Book 1 is written - 25k initial launch - 1,600-2,500 word chapters - Mon/Wed/Fri chapter release schedule (1400hrs / CST) - Bonus chapter releases for hitting follower or review goals - Light to medium crunch - Isekai / System Apocalypse premise - Male lead, over 40 years old - Strong language - If someone dies, they die. No respawns - No Deus ex machina or plot armor (so far) - I am not a scientist. This is a fantasy book. There will be nonsensical things that happen because I don't have the time to research how the science/physics works.
