Overview

When the super average play with superpowers, all of Earth becomes a gameboard, in the first book of this thrilling superhero fantasy adventure. Nate Mercer had every intention of leading a perfectly normal life in a drastically altered world. A decade ago, the sky filled with thousands of blinking lights, causing completely average people to suddenly develop incredible superpowers. Known as Augments, these gifted humans have only brought destruction as they engage in global battles for control. Nate wanted nothing to do with the chaos, but when he's caught in an Augmented fight, he has no choice but to join the ranks--or be left for dead. Because it turns out Nate is a system-picked member of the Tenth Wave of Augments. He's been gifted a personal AI, a choice of more than 47,000 powersets, and a chance to become one of the strongest Augments to play Infinite Ascension, the most exciting game on Earth. As he joins others in gaining abilities, completing missions, and defeating biker gangs, he's left with two big questions: In a time of mind-blowing technological revolution, why is the biggest advancement yet being kept a secret from the world? And just who is really behind all of it in the first place? When Nate accidentally finds himself in the middle of a secret conspiracy brewing behind the game's mechanics, he discovers there's much more to being an Augment than just superpowered brawls. Encouraged to let loose, wreak havoc, and win fabulous prizes, he's about to learn that every battle with a supervillain is a lesson, every mistake is a stepping stone to greatness, and--if he keeps his tights fresh, his mask on, and his true identity secret--he'll eventually find out exactly what he's ascending to. That is, if he can survive long enough . . . The first volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series--with more than a million views on Royal Road--now available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook! Tropes include: wrong place wrong time, secret identity, and reluctant hero.
