A dangerous gang. A murdered elf. A city coming apart at the seams and a vast army preparing to invade. The quests don't get any easier for Ted Steel. But his greatest challenge is this: can he save the world while keeping a deep, dark secret?
Nerves of Steel is a well-written, tightly plotted, page-turning LitRPG thriller set in a hectic online game world where the outcome of every action is determined by the supposedly impartial 'Engine'. The BetterVerse boasts monsters and magic, elves and dwarves, a leveling system tailored for every player, and AI NPCs so realistic they don't even know they are side characters in a MMORPG.
What is Ted Steel's secret? Why is the Engine acting so strangely? Who is Torquemada and how can they possibly be stopped?
LitRPG/Gamelit is a genre that combines sci-fi and/or fantasy worlds with RPG mechanics. The result can be extremely satisfying - characters get stronger, faster, even more intelligent as they solve problems or fight monsters. Nerves of Steel doesn't overwhelm with numbers or tables, and while the game mechanics are important there is more focus on character and plot, making it ideal for newcomers or people who don't play RPG games.
