UnderVerse · #3

City of Fallen Souls

Jez Cajiao

Jax survived the Smugglers Path, as did most of his party, but he’s suffered losses, found out just how far he’s willing to go for Oracle, and seen his own darker side… as have his followers.

The City of Himnel crawls with depravity, violence and backstabbing, and if Jax wants to keep his people, supply his growing war-machine, and have any kind of a chance at survival, he needs to not only survive there, he needs to rob it blind!

Jax's simple, honest and straightforward methods of dealing with people would usually equate to a snowman vs a flamethrower's chance at survival, except he's got some new tricks, some new allies, and gives even less of a damn than usual about the odds.

Join Jax, Oracle, and the squad as they explore Himnel, fight in the Arena and gather other waifs and strays not to mention making new, and far more powerful enemies than he ever dreamt he would encounter.

Find out what happened to Thomas, why the Legion is hated and reviled, and if Jax ever manages to get his hearts desire… namely a cold beer, people to leave him the hell alone, and Oracle, naked, and some ‘quality’ time uninterrupted!

Please Note: This is book 3 of the UnderVerse Series, as with all my books, this story is a Dark Fantasy, filled with violence, swearing and bad jokes, but no Harems...

Full series details →

Step into the UnderVerse, where the boundary between game and reality is thin, and every choice carries unimaginable consequences. In this dark, immersive series, the stakes aren’t just life and death—they’re identity, survival, and the endless pursuit of power. The UnderVerse is a world crafted not just from pixels and code but from desperation and ambition, a place where the line between hero and villain blurs with every new chapter.

Read full series description

At the heart of the story is Jax, a man thrust into an unforgiving virtual world where the cost of failure isn’t just losing a level—it's losing everything. What begins as a reluctant journey soon becomes an exploration of the human spirit, questioning what it means to fight, to evolve, and to be truly alive. As Jax grapples with monstrous creatures, power-hungry factions, and his own growing darkness, readers are pulled into a web of choices where trust is a luxury, and every ally could become an enemy.

The UnderVerse series is more than a LitRPG—it’s a journey through a landscape where the rules of reality don’t apply, and the consequences of each decision echo throughout the narrative. The world-building is rich, layered with deep lore, dangerous factions, and a constant tension between order and chaos. It's a place where betrayal is common, and the price of ambition can break even the strongest souls.

With each installment, the series takes a darker turn, building on its complex characters and the increasingly perilous world around them. Jax isn’t just fighting monsters—he’s facing the very nature of power itself, and in doing so, he reveals unsettling truths about the UnderVerse and about himself. The atmosphere is tense and gritty, never letting up as the plot weaves through betrayals, revelations, and battles that leave you questioning who the true enemy is.

Perfect for fans of high-stakes adventure, dark fantasy, and complex character arcs, the UnderVerse is a series that doesn’t just challenge its characters—but challenges its readers to think about the cost of everything. As alliances shift and enemies emerge from every corner, one question remains: Can you survive in a world that wants to break you?
