Codename: Freedom · #1
Survive Week One
War is coming.
The government must accelerate their super soldier program. They have pushed beyond what was thought possible and developed a new Virtual Reality system; the perfect tool to weed out and train recruits. There is another problem. Every soldier has already been sorted and those found to possess the “talent” are already in training. There just aren’t enough. That is why Codename: Freedom has been developed. It’s time they looked outside the military. Failure is not an option.
Against all odds, Lucius, a semipro gamer who was raised by his Artificial Intelligence Bot named Destiny, is selected to participate in Codename: Freedom, a VRMMO that promises to push Virtual Reality to the ultimate level.
The Game Developers are kind enough to hide a key feature. 100% pain. There are no pain dampeners. He finds himself among the other participants of Codename: Freedom who are thrown in with hardly any time to get their bearings before the entire player city is under attacked.
With the world watching live, Lucius is faced with the opportunity to gain a following and impressing sponsors. After years of hard work to move up in the gamer ranks, this new game will challenge Lucius to the point of breaking and beyond. Will he quit, go mad, or find the motivation to fight when it becomes painfully clear that this is far from just another game?
The Epic LitRPG from RRL has finally arrived!

Read full series description
At the heart of the story is Lucius, a gamer thrust into Codename: Freedom, a VR game with an ominous secret. What begins as a quest for survival quickly becomes a battle for identity, as Lucius discovers the game is a covert military experiment designed to forge elite soldiers. Every level he clears pulls him deeper into a web of mystery, where the boundaries between virtual achievements and real-world consequences blur in ways he could never have anticipated.
As the series unfolds, the reader is taken on a journey through intricate worlds, each more dangerous and complex than the last. With every victory, Lucius unlocks not only new powers but revelations about the game’s dark purpose. It’s a journey that forces him to confront his own limits and question what truly matters—freedom, power, or survival.
Codename: Freedom stands apart from other LitRPG novels with its focus on character development and moral dilemmas, making it more than just a tale of leveling up. Readers are drawn into a world where the lines between gaming and reality are not only blurred, but manipulated. The series challenges the very notion of freedom itself, forcing its characters—and its readers—to ask: what does it really mean to be free?
With each new installment, Codename: Freedom expands its universe, delivering high-octane action, compelling character arcs, and thought-provoking questions about technology and human nature. Whether you’re drawn to the thrill of the game or the deeper existential stakes, this series offers a ride that’s as intellectually engaging as it is heart-pounding. If you’re looking for a story where the game is real, the stakes are high, and freedom is never guaranteed, then Codename: Freedom is the series you won’t want to miss.
