Demonstorm

With war between the Valestra Kingdom and the Geshwine Empire imminent, Callum Stross enters a tournament pitting the Great College against the Crimson Sigil—a faction infamous for their use of Demoncores. From the brutal Culling Trials to the unforgiving Duelist Rounds, every clash brings Callum face-to-face with rivals trained to fight with ruthless precision. To survive, he must seek the Demonslayer’s lost legacy and forge a bond with a second aetherbeast. But as the tournament surges toward its climax, a darker tide gathers beyond the arena walls. Victory may grant Callum glory, but the Valestra Kingdom itself faces a reckoning no one expected . . .

Demonstorm is the second installment of Aetherforged, the epic LitRPG progression fantasy collab from critically acclaimed gamelit authors Luke Chmilenko and Harmon Cooper.
