Just when Montana thought he had life in Vuldranni figured out, the rug is pulled out from under him. He’s alone once again, but now he's in the crosshairs of the man who would be emperor, and a whole host of people are counting on Montana to provide a safe haven for them.
Montana has one hope of actually completing his quest of forming a dukedom: he needs to bust Nikolai out of prison.
A prison that no one has ever escaped from alive.
A prison whose only exit is little more than rumor and probably doesn't even exist — through a sentient dungeon, hell-bent on causing torture, inflicting pain, and extracting the ultimate price: life.
Montana and his hirðmen are down to their last chance. So they get themselves arrested and enter Osterstadt prison. Can the Good Guys do good by going bad?
Dungeon Mauling is LItRPG adventure cruising at breakneck speed. There are epic hobgoblin battles, hordes of monsters, insane leveling, otter hammer throws, relentless mimics, the most revolting water slide you’ll ever hear of, and one cocktail you can only hope to forget.
The series
In a world where the line between hero and villain is often blurred, The Good Guys dares to explore what happens when the so-called "heroes" aren’t as perfect as the legends suggest. Eric Ugland takes readers on a wild ride through gritty battles, unexpected alliances, and moments of profound self-discovery. This series isn’t just about saving the world—it’s about finding the courage to face the darkness within.
Read full series description
At its core, The Good Guys is a journey of transformation. The protagonists aren’t flawless warriors or picture-perfect leaders; they’re individuals with faults, baggage, and the scars of past decisions. This raw, human element brings a refreshing depth to the genre, making every triumph feel earned and every setback, devastating. The world they navigate is as complex as the characters themselves—full of shifting allegiances, morally gray choices, and moments where the right thing to do isn’t always obvious.
Through intricate world-building, Ugland crafts a universe that feels both familiar and unique, where magic, power, and ambition collide. Yet, it’s the characters that truly steal the show. Readers will find themselves torn between cheering for these so-called “good guys” and questioning whether they truly deserve the title. Each character’s arc is layered with personal conflict, growth, and moments of vulnerability that resonate long after the last page is turned.
Whether you're drawn to the adrenaline of fast-paced action or the slower, more thoughtful exploration of what it means to be "good," The Good Guys offers a captivating mix of both. It’s a series that asks tough questions—about identity, morality, and the choices that define us—while providing the thrill of adventure and the comfort of knowing that, even in a chaotic world, redemption is always possible.
Step into this world where nothing is quite as it seems, and the heroes might just surprise you.
