Lightning Disciple (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781838079604)

Humanity struggles to survive in the ruins that their ancestors made of the Earth. War, famine, pollution and apathy have poisoned the soil and the sea and the spirits of those left behind.

Alan scrapes together a living farming dead soil with his father, barely making it through each winter. Crops fail, fish disappear from the rivers and bandits race through the countryside, turning every day into a battle for survival.

But when an Old World plague called Heirloom Online settles on his village, making puppets of the villagers, survival is no longer enough. A falling star hints at a possible cure - if Alan and his friends can capture it.

In order to live long enough to try, Alan will have to unravel the mysteries of Heirloom Online and the Lightning Disciple class. The world is full of monsters; large and small, old and new, unfamiliar and all-too-human.

Lightning Disciple is a fast-paced LitRPG novel, blending fantasy and post-apocalyptic settings. It is the first book in the Heirloom Earth series.
