Join Dirk and his genius Goose companion in their relentless pursuit of the perfect run.

Dirk was America’s golden boy. Olympic golds, Wheaties box—the works.

That was ten years ago. Turns out going to prison is terrible for sponsorships. Now, he’s alone, a felony on his record, and bitter at the world.

Enter the Tower of Conflict.

Just what a man needs to get out of a rut—the end of the world and a Tower to Climb. Aided by his talking goose animal companion, magical cape, and the Goddess of Fate herself, Dirk is primed to take this Tower by storm.

He was always more of a lone wolf, but when the competing alien races start smacking humanity around the Tower, he’ll be forced to lean on his teammates, unlock new magic, and broker reluctant alliances.

Because if he doesn’t, humanity is doomed....

Welcome to the Tower, Climbers. Try not to die on the first day!

Don't miss this hilarious new LitRPG Apocalypse featuring a sometimes loveable and oftern muderhobo-ey MC, a know-it-all goose companion, honking good humor, a detailed System, time-loop magic, and more. It's perfect for fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl, Towers of Heaven, and Tower Climber.

Fast paced adventure that keeps you wondering how the hero will get out of his next battle! Great start for a new series!

Lots of intrigue and plot twists! Overpowered hero changes his fate by dieing!

Giving it 5 stars bc it has great potential. Very Good story and mechanic building. Interesting and different concepts. Funny in parts. The number of point of view Changes and time redo story telling is overwhelming. Also the constant ADHD interruptions add nothing to the story and detract from an otherwise well written book. This could be great but hopefully in the second book we get a relief from the duplicative details and the far too many view points.

Hopeful it gets better

While Dunning is new to me, Thron certainly isn’t. And I was here for Thron, stayed for Dunning. Both do a wonderful job with Darling of Fate. And I’m a sucker for a good animal sidekick. Go goose!

Nice change of pace

Gotta love a Ahole main character that cares and learns from mistakes. He has goal and he does what he can to achieve it and makes adjustments as necessary

I like main character
