The hilarious sequel to the hit LitRPG dungeon comedy, DEATH HAS JOINED THE PARTY!

Against all odds, Tavin Sorrel survived his first three dungeon floors as a level 1 Necrolord. He didn’t die to the opinionated lich who tried, and failed, to take over his body. He didn’t die to the mimic who ended up becoming his most reliable friend or the dragonborn Paladin who swore to kill him right before joining his party. He didn’t even die on the infamous death floor, a truly shocking feat that’s made him something of a celebrity on Mana Runners—the dungeon-running reality show where the entire
world expected him to die.

But Tavin did not die. He leveled up and beat the boss that no one else could touch… which means now he has to deal with all the stuff he never thought he’d live long enough to worry about. Stuff like corporate sponsorships, screaming fans who keep demanding he turn them into his undead minions, and the actual secrets of the Endless Dungeon that Copper Runners like him aren’t supposed to know.

Turns out, when you survive the unsurvivable, you learn a lot of things you shouldn’t. Tavin still knows almost nothing about the mysterious beings the Endless Dungeon was built to imprison, but they know him. Now that they’ve named him as one of their own, he’s going to have to prove to the people in power that he’s not evil.

A not-evil lich. Good luck with that.

Welcome back to the world of MANA RUNNERS, the TTRPG-based LitRPG series with more mimics per volume than any other modern dungeon adventure! If you love fantasy comedy packed with loot, levels, party antics, and just the right amount of rules-driven combat crunch, this is the series you won’t want to miss. Perfect for fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl, Dungeons & Dragons, Critical Role, and Terry Pratchett.

Featuring a kind underdog protagonist with an OP hidden class shoved into the brutal life of celebrity dungeon crawling, DEATH HAS GONE ROGUE picks right up where DEATH HAS JOINED THE PARTY left off. The stakes are higher, the battles are harder, the spells are bigger, and everyone is still delightfully (or horribly) themselves. It’s everything you loved about the first book +1, just like a sequel should be!

Strangely intrigued but still don’t know what we’re talking about? This is a sequel, silly! Reading book one first is definitely the best meta, so go check out DEATH HAS JOINED THE PARTY by clicking on the Mana Runners series name above and get ready to enjoy some delightfully deranged adventuring.
