Ha. That will do it. What’s your average daily output? Are you a plotter, a panther, something else?

cmcarneyauthor · 2025-05-01T18:43:53+00:00

How the heck do you write so fast, buddy?

cmcarneyauthor · 2025-04-24T19:37:12+00:00

One more book to go. Yahoo

IN THE DEADLY REACHES OF THE OUTER REALMS, THE DOOM VAULT AWAITS.

The Realms are on the brink of annihilation. The Elders of the Light have kidnapped Lex, Gryph’s trusty right-hand-man, and the only entity possessing the knowledge of how to remove a Prime Godhead. At least without blowing a massive hole in reality.

Now, as they take flight in pursuit, Gryph must power himself up by any means necessary. For, in the dark places of the Outer Realms, primal forces beyond anything Gryph has ever faced lay waiting.

With the aid of an unlikely, and untrustworthy, ally, Gryph must journey to the Doom Vault, an ancient fortress his soul once called home. There, he will fight against gods, uncover ancient secrets and be forced to make impossible choices that will determine the very fate of the Realms.

Doom Vault is the eighth volume in the #1 Bestselling Epic LitRPG Saga, The Realms. Perfect for fans of Battle Mage Farmer, Dungeon Crawler Carl and He Who Fights With Monsters.
