Black Hat

Life’s a GrindLiving in a virtual game world sounds like the ultimate dream. Plenty of action, intrigue, and guess who gets to be the big hero?But what happens when that digital reality gets flipped on its head? Bad guys are after your sweet loot, your fancy title is loaded with unrealistic expectations, and achieving such a high level comes with a big fat target on your back.It isn’t long before Talon and company learn that, in an MMO, the daily grind is a literal fact of life.Something has to give, so when a new crusader faction rolls into town, Talon senses an opportunity. Not just to get out of Dodge, but to navigate unforgiving terrain to the edge of the world where he can make a difference. Have a real impact. Be a real hero.The catch? An awakened dragon, a city of cutthroats, and a mystical executioner with a sharpened axe to grind. Welcome to the first of a few very long days.What listeners are saying:??

Gigantic climax." ???? "Exhilarating from first to last." ???? "I cheered, I booed, I may have even pumped my fist, much to the dismay of the cat beside me. 5 stars!" ????
