Part two to the new series by the author of Nocturne—a retired master sergeant with a heavy case of PTSD attempting to find within, the soldier he left behind. All he's ever known was how to kill until that one day when death was all he gave, when mercy was forgotten.

Similar in scope to Primal Hunter and Defiance of the Fall.

Post Apocalyptic Progression Fantasy

Jeb has been chosen as a Contestant for the Crucible of War and he refuses to leave his two-year old Cane Corso, Bose, behind. Whatever they face, they will face together.

They were supposed to go to a Tutorial where everything would be challenging but fair. Like everything else in his life, it went to shit and he got sucked into the Endless Dungeon with beasts far far stronger than what he was supposed to face but through the grit gained as a retired Master Sergeant and the courage of his pooch, Bose, they survived. Even through the crippling effects of his PTSD, he pushed through for himself, for Bose, for the man he used to be.

They make it out of the Endless Dungeon and into the City of Blood, one of the eight cities that make up the Crucible of War though far earlier than the rest of humanity. Within the first steps into the city they are confronted by a posse of Greenskins, members of the infamous Skull and Bones, one of the four violent races and gangs that ran the City. They wanted to take everything from Jeb and Bose, including their lives.

They would learn the hard way what a Master Sergeant of the United States Army could do, retired or not. Jeb had spent his entire life dancing with Death and even with his PTSD sending spikes of memory to shatter his sanity, he would teach them what it meant to face someone birthed in War, and their very own close up look at his Benelli m-4, Vladimere. Good ole' Vlad, Jeb's bane and boon. His road was strewn with corpses, what was a few more.
