A Progression Fantasy Epic

De: C.B. Titus

An action-packed new progression fantasy from the bestselling author of Armor and Deadman Walking.

Locked away. Left to die. He'll master his powers to survive, then thrive.

Betrayed by his former gang and thrown into the Rendhold Underprison, Dantes has spent the last five years scraping by. A bastard of human, orcish, and elvish blood, he's lived on the periphery of the periphery, lying, cheating, and stealing to survive.

After a run of bad luck, he's made a powerful enemy who seeks his head.

But that's where his rise to power begins. Thanks to an unexpected alliance with a fanged friend, the druidic powers locked within him come to life. He has all the tools he needs to turn things around, he just need to master them.

Because you can never underestimate a Street Rat...

About the Series: A slow-burn progression fantasy focused on an Anti-hero MC with a code rising through the criminal underworld of a city-state using newfound powers and quick wits. MC's powers will develop slowly, but he will use them in creative ways to get ahead, and in the meantime he'll do whatever it takes.

Amazing

Great story and world. Pretty cool that for once its a story of a druid without you staple druid animals like bears owls and wolves bht instead using common animals found in cities.

Betrayed. Imprisoned. Out for Revenge—Bring it on!

What can I say other than—I loved it.
It’s a fantastic story with a few reminiscent moments and themes that reminded me of The Count of Monte Cristo.
If you’ve read the book or seen any of its many film adaptations, you’ll get what I mean.

I highly recommend this book.
And if you’re a fan of He Who Fights With Monsters, you’ll be happy to know the voice actor, Heath Miller, absolutely knocked it out of the park.

Full stars all around!

Can't Wait for More!!

I am a HUGE fan of The Count of Monte Cristo Voice acting is great, Heath Miller is one of my favorites since HWFWM. If you know, you know.

Unexpected origin story

An unusual beginning for a very interesting Druid. It’s different for a Druid to come from an urban area. I enjoyed seeing him learn about his powers and figure out how to best use them to his advantage. Heath Miller does an outstanding job with the narration giving every character a unique voice. I recommend picking this up.

I need more!!

Everything this guy makes is awesome.
Some people might not like how dark and gritty It is but I love it

So feel some old story vibes

So loved the book solidly written, with a feel of count of montacristo the hint of mischief makes me chuckle.

very cool take on a classic story!

Won’t give anything away spend the credit ! an amazing story well written. Excellently narrated . Can’t wait for book 2.

Absolutely Banger

Loved the story, The world made me want to see more and Heath Miller's narration was a Fantastic as always. I hope this series continues because I can't wait to see where the story goes next!

An Author to Follow

Titus does not follow or copy, but carves his own path... I have listened to all 5 Audio books, Armor, 3 Dead man, and Druid... Titus has unique prose, a different slant, that I enjoy... His main characters have faults, not angels .. Thank you for your work

Ohhhh! Man! Great! I loved this litRPG adventure!

Ohhhh! Man! Great! Getting this book was an absolute no brainer! With two of my favorites at it again! CB Titus is always spinning out spellbinding tales, and I've loved 'im ever since I read Armor. As for Heath Miller, how can you not love his dreamy voice performance! Soooooooo see, a no brainer! This book follows Dantes as he navigates the Pitts, a jail and dungeon world. But really the only monsters found are the other inmates and guards... and to survive Dantes keeps to himself and trying to choose his allies carefully! And wow for some reason the rat 🐀 he's befriended starts talking to him. Did anyone say that monster companions had to be big and powerful. That a lowly rat 🐀 couldn't possibly fill the bill! Well let me abuse you of that notion. Just read the book... 'cause that's what this unlikely team did!
Grab the audiobook and experience the power gains as Dantes and Jocapo look for a way outta the Pitts!
