Path of the Deathless: Book 2

By: OstensibleMammal, Dath Well

Narrated by: Garrett Michael Brown

Shiv grows with every death. It was supposed to be an advantage. The System calls it 'working as intended'.

Once an Omenborn street rat, Shiv clawed his way into becoming a feared Pathbearer, one who gains power every time he dies. But when he’s hauled off to Gate Theborn, a brutal fortress where lives are bought and sold across worlds, even resurrection may not be enough to keep him alive.

Separated from his friends and hunted as a fugitive, Shiv is trapped in a realm ruled by the soldiers of a heartless Demon God. As he tears the truth from those in his way, he uncovers a divine conspiracy threatening to dismantle the Yellowstone Republic. Surrounded by demons, soulless bureaucrats, and mind-devouring horrors, survival will take more than brute force… because he isn’t the only one who comes back.

His brutal encounter with an endlessly-resurrecting orc has bound them together; forming a bond that calls out across realms and guides his new-found eternal rival back with a promise of a fight that can never truly end.

But if death is the battlefield, Shiv is certain he'll be the last one standing.
