The world ended in a flash of light and ninety percent of humanity vanished.

Those who survived were left with shattered memories, strange new powers, a LitRPG system stitched into reality — and towering alien monoliths called Godwalkers stalking the ruins.

Sterling Monedero fought the invaders once and failed.

Now, he lives quietly on the edge of the Southwest in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, surviving the system apocalypse until a bandit attack and a Godwalker strike shatter his refuge, dragging him back into the fight.

To destroy the monoliths, Sterling must cross a landscape twisted by alien logic: barren white planes, cult-dominated ruins, broken cities, and vortexes of forbidden energy. Reuniting with old allies and forging new ones, he hunts for answers buried beneath centuries of myth, technology, and blood.

The Godwalkers ended the world. Sterling intends to return the favor.
