Shadow Slave, Book 3 - by Guiltythree (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

The rise of the Shadow Slave continues in Prince of Nothing, the third volume of the global sensation, Shadow Slave.

Growing up in poverty, Sunny never expected anything good from life. However, even he did not anticipate being chosen by the Nightmare Spell and becoming one of the Awakened -- an elite group of people gifted with supernatural powers.

Transported into a ruined magical world, he finds himself facing off against terrible monsters and other Awakened in a deadly battle of survival.

What's worse, the shadow powers he received happen to possess a small and potentially fatal side effect.

But that won't stop him. Born a slave. Destined for the grave. He chooses to survive.

No matter the cost...

At some point, he felt that there was too much excitement in his life and brought his deep practical knowledge of game design and writing to the progression fantasy genre.
