Code Bound - (The Rankbreaker) by Kendra Moreno (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Enter the Harrow. Survive the game. Lose your soul.

Humanity's last refuge is a lie. They call it The Cradle, massive planetary rings built to preserve the remains of humanity, but salvation has a price. At the very bottom lies Dross: the smallest, most overcrowded ring, rotting from neglect. Air tastes like smoke and ash, walls crumble around you, and life is a slow, grinding misery.

Vesper is done rotting there.

Once a month, the Harrow Gates open and the desperate pour in. Survive the Harrow, level up, and you might reach Luxe, the shining ring where Tier Fives live like gods while Dross starves.

But the Harrow isn't about life or death. It's about what you're willing to lose.

Every fight is watched. Every death serves a purpose. The Ascendants of Luxe monitor from above, keeping the Harrow in balance as players claw, bleed, and fracture themselves for survival. Nothing here is random, and nothing is wasted.

To climb the tiers, Vesper must choose her Glitch, grind for strength, and sacrifice pieces of herself along the way. Because in the Harrow, power doesn't just change you. It corrupts you. The higher you climb, the sharper the teeth watching you.

In a world where loyalty is weakness and power devours everything, Vesper will have to decide what she's willing to become to win.

Because the only way out of the Harrow. . .

Is through everyone else.

Code Bound is a dark WhyChoose LitRPG that's perfect for fans of Dungeon Crawler Carl and Ready Player One. If you're a book baddie gamer or just someone who loves adventures with some spice thrown in, then you're gonna love this new gamelit dystopian world from Kendra Moreno.
