From the author of Falling with Folded Wings comes a furious new fantasy series, in which a teenage, hard-case Earthling tries to earn some class . . . Victor can't wait to get the hell out of high school, go to the local community college on a sports scholarship, and start his own life. But that's all put on hold when he enters his abuela's house and somehow ends up stepping into a world unlike anything he's ever known, filled with fantastical meta-humans; walking, talking devils; and other creatures one usually needs some serious pharmaceuticals to see. Fanwath is no dream, though. In fact, it's a nightmare. Sold into slavery as a pit fighter, Victor quickly learns his new home is controlled by the ?System? and the only way to get ahead is to fight, kill, and collect the precious ?Energy? that means the difference between a long life and an early grave. And according to his stats, Victor's starting out at a solid zero. Lucky for him, no one in this world has ever met his kind before?which means they have no idea what he's really capable of. But they're about to find out . . .

Unlikely hero Victor discovers the realm of Fanwath is even deadlier beneath the surface in the rollicking sequel to action-adventure fantasy Pit Fighter. Suddenly transported to the land of Fanwath, Victor had a hard time adapting to a reality controlled by an omniscient ?System? that rewarded strength, skill, and savagery with increased ?Energy,? which was necessary if one wished to continue breathing. Then, after some truly surprising success as a gladiator-slave, the teenager ended up doomed to a life in the brutal mines along with a menagerie of fantastical beings possessing even worse luck than him. But everything changes when Victor finds a way out?or rather, down. With the aid of a magical portal, he soon finds himself in a fabled subterranean dungeon-labyrinth, where his wits and combat prowess are the only things keeping him alive. OK, so he's found a companion in the strangely alluring and witty Shadeni warrior-woman Thayla as well as an amulet housing a guiding spirit named Gorz. But even they won't be able to help him now. Because there are things lurking in the depths more deadly than Victor can possibly imagine. And if he ever does manage to escape the darkness, some very powerful?and vengeful?nobles will do anything to send him back underground. About six feet underground, to be precise . . .

In return, he'll receive his own land and a place among the elite.But first, Victor must become even more powerful than he already is. To that end, he ventures into the wilderness, battling foes of every conceivable stripe in both the mortal and the spiritual realms in a never-ending storm of blood, and eventually uncovers a shocking truth. It turns out, he didn't simply stumble into the world of Fanwath. He was deliberately brought there by a cabal of magic users with their own sinister plans.Now, Victor must find the cabal, learn why they stole his former life away from him?and make them seriously regret it . . .

A young man from Earth struggles to survive in a fantastical realm of blood, battles, and berserkers as the action-packed LitRPG series continues. When young Victor Sandoval was snatched from his abuela's home and thrust into a brutal existence as a pit fighter in the land of Fanwath, it took a long time?and a heck of a lot of acquired skills and levels?to survive and become a formidable warrior with anger issues to spare. And now he seems to be right back at the bottom of the barrel. Heaved through a portal while defeating a particularly obnoxious pyromancer, Victor and his companion, Valla, find themselves on a new planet populated by serpentines, insectoids, and giants so far beyond the pair in might and experience as to be nigh invulnerable. If the warriors are to withstand this dangerous realm, they'll have to endure countless tribulations to build up their own strength. Once again, Victor must hack and hew his way to victory in the arena for a devious warlord, while Valla must honor an unwanted duel against a seemingly unbeatable opponent. And both will have to score more kills, collect more treasure, and face more horrors beyond their wildest imagination if they ever hope to return to Fanwath . . .
