Rise of Kers

Suspended above the world in a dungeon made of clouds, Rise of Kers reimagines what LitRPG and dungeon core stories can be. This is not your typical tale of deep, stone-walled caverns and creeping monsters. Here, the dungeon floats in the sky—vulnerable, radiant, and impossibly alive. At its heart is Kers, a newly reborn dungeon core grappling with the absurdity of managing a fortress with no stone, no trees, and no ground beneath his feet.

There’s a strange beauty in watching Kers try to adapt to his vertical, open-air prison. With the help of a sharp-tongued, slightly unhinged fairy companion named Selena, he crafts something unconventional: a dungeon populated by mischievous pink slimes, predatory snow leopards, and sharks that shoot energy beams—yes, really. It’s chaotic, funny, and surprisingly thoughtful. Every creature he summons, every trap he sets, every inch of territory he claims speaks to a larger question about identity and reinvention.

Rise of Kers consists of three 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.
