Good Guy Necromancer
Jerry the Necromancer decides to follow the unique approach of befriending his undead.
Ostracized by his fellow villagers, hunted by bandits, and watched by the Royal Guard's least elite squad, Jerry is called to balance creating a lovely home with practicing his craft and unleashing death and destruction on his enemies.
Unfortunately, taking it slow is not an option. Wizard supremacists tour the Kingdom, Archmages enact devious plans, and the world needs Jerry more than his village does. Adventure calls—death is overrated, anyway.
Thrust in the middle of ancient conspiracies, Jerry is not only determined to survive and thrive…but also to enjoy the process.
Experience this hilarious new slice-of-death Progression Fantasy by Valerios, bestselling author of Road to Mastery. Follow Jerry down a path of friendship, and as he grows in power, prove his methods may hold a lot more merit than it seems.

Valerios
Valerios didn’t set out to be an author. Not exactly. His fascination began not with stories, but with patterns—of numbers, of words, of how one idea could quietly ripple into something larger. A quiet observer by nature, he found early joy in puzzles and precision, the kind of joy that eventually spilled into writing, where the rules were subtler and the outcomes more surprising.
His books, especially those in the Road to Mastery series, don’t just build worlds—they explore the tension between structure and chaos, growth and consequence. At their core lies a single question: how far can someone go if they’re willing to begin with nothing? That question, and the countless variations it spawns, drives Valerios’s work across the fantasy and progression genres. His stories tend to unfold with methodical patience, each step earned, each transformation justified. Readers drawn to careful worldbuilding, grounded character arcs, and quiet moments of triumph often find themselves unexpectedly hooked.
