Reinitializing the Apocalypse
(2026)(The first book in the System Reset series)
A novel by Timothy McGowen
An action-packed Apocalyptic LitRPG perfect for fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl andThe Primal Hunter!
During the first Apocalypse, the System Lords forgot one tiny detail—they left William Ward out. While everyone else got classes and powers, he kept doing what he does best: working in the shadows as a legendary hitman.
When he finally retires, living quietly with his disabled dog Max, the System Lords decide to meddle again. After turning Earth into a complete hellhole, they hit reset on the Apocalypse, only this time, William is added to the System.
As some half-baked apology, he’s given a fancy AI assistant, a pile of System credits, and a new class: Arcane Gunslinger. Oh, and they threw in a robotic arm and leg, plus healed Max’s back legs.
Perks that almost make William forgive them.
That is, until they open a freaking portal and unload countless souped-up goblins in System-upgraded gear onto his front lawn.
Time to grab his bat, load up his Ruger .357 Magnum, and go goblin hunting. The System Lords are about to regret ever remembering the name William Ward.
