A Blood of Kings
Ryn has fallen. Ester could be dying. Bonner is too far away to help. No matter how Declan Idrys looks at his situation, he comes to the same conclusion every time:
He is about to die at the hands of the first dark elf seen in seven hundred years.
Fate, fortunately, is not so cruel though, and after barely surviving this initial encounter with the er’endehn of Eserysh, Declan and his friends find themselves in a tentative truce with the war-loving elves. They share a common enemy, after all, and their mutual hate for the Endless Queen and her growing legions is enough for the two groups to set aside their mistrust for one another, if only for now. Sehranya, however, is not one to rest easy while her enemies join forces, and Declan and his companions soon find themselves assaulted by new horrors as they set out to make at last for the legendary city of Ysenden in truth.
But the Queen has made a mistake. Within Declan the slumbering might of his line is at last stirring, prodded into life by the guiding hands of Bonner yr’Essel. Fire. Power. Strength.
Sehranya will rue the day she did not throw everything she had into slaying the one of King’s blood…

Luke Chmilenko
When Luke Chmilenko first sat down to write Ascend Online, he wasn’t trying to start a movement—he just wanted to tell the kind of story he’d always wanted to read. A story where the game wasn’t just background noise, but the world itself. Where the stakes were more than loot drops, and choices had lasting consequences. That book, published in 2016, quickly became a defining entry in the LitRPG genre—one that helped shape the virtual battlegrounds readers now devour with fervor.
The Shattered Reigns
In a land where kings are made by the sword and unmade by ancient forces best left forgotten, The Shattered Reigns unfolds with the slow, inevitable pull of a gathering storm. This epic fantasy series doesn’t rush its revelations—it builds them, brick by bloodstained brick, into something as immersive as it is unforgiving.
The Shattered Reigns consists of two books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
