The Ascendant's Path

How do you move forward when the one person you love is gone?



Caelan thought his life was over—until he woke up in another world, one eerily familiar from his late wife’s favorite game series. But this isn’t a dream or an afterlife. He’s trapped in the body of Leopold, a notorious antagonist, and there’s just one problem: Leopold is still here, and he has no intention of giving up control.



Forced into an uneasy alliance, Caelan and Leopold navigate a world of shifting alliances, deadly secrets, and unseen threats lurking in the shadows. But as Caelan struggles to adapt, he realizes that he might not be as special as he believed.



If he wants to survive, he’ll have to rewrite the story’s ending—before someone else does it for him.
