Double-Blind 2Gilded Tower
Corruption. Power struggle. Malevolent deities.
All this is topped off by a mysterious golden tower that appeared overnight, drawing adventurers from far and wide.
Still recovering from the events of Transposition and struggling with his nature, Matt sets out to rescue his best friend from the clutches of the mysterious organization that kidnapped him.
He’ll need every trick in the Rogue’s playbook to stay ahead of the game, using infiltration, cunning, and his unique Ordinator ability to outthink and outmaneuver stronger and better-connected foes.
With both new players and the remaining fragments of government in pursuit, playing both sides comes with the territory, and leaning into his alternate identity’s villainous image will be key.
Of course, there’s the obvious question: How long can you play the villain before you become one?

J. McCoy
J. McCoy, who also writes under the name Eligos, crafts stories where logic, emotion, and consequence intertwine. Known for the RE: Monarch and Double-Blind series, McCoy’s fiction lives at the intersection of speculative fantasy and LitRPG, creating worlds that feel alive because their rules matter and every decision changes the outcome.
McCoy’s path to writing began much like their stories, through curiosity, systems, and a fascination with “what if.” Long before publishing A Prince Out of Time, the first book in the RE: Monarch series, McCoy built imaginary worlds inside online games and text-based adventures, experimenting with how structure shapes storytelling. That early love of player-driven narratives grew into full novels where strategy meets emotion and power always carries a cost.
Double-Blind
Double-Blind consists of three books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
