Shattered Light

When he’s sent at the king’s command to the demon-razed frontier, Rowan is no longer just a spare hero-and it’ll take all that he knows and more to survive.What does it take to become a true hero? Rowan and his companions learned that all too quickly when they were thrown into a system-controlled world and proclaimed saviors of the realm. But then their choice of mighty weaponry was literally decided by the cards, and Rowan ended up with a simple, stupid spear to fight off an invading demon army. Hooray?However, with a bit of training, some hard work, and heaps of luck, Rowan’s shown himself to be no basic fighter, earning new skills, formidable cards, and even the heart of a fair combat alchemist. And now he has the chance to prove himself further by taking charge of a remote village right on the war’s frontlines.To survive the coming siege, he’ll need to transform a motley collection of mercenaries, brigands, mages, and regular folk into battle-ready soldiers as well as harness his own mystical powers. Because someone wants Rowan out of the fight-permanently. And they may be even more deadly and determined than the hellish monsters already knocking on his door . . .The second volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series―with more than 750,000 views on Royal Road―now available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook!Tropes include: underdog hero, loveable loser, and unstoppable foe.
