The Trial of Primacy: An Apocalypse Litrpg

By Nicholas Searcy

Elijah Hart faces his toughest challenge yet in the epic fifth installment of this apocalypse adventure series from the author of Death: Genesis.

The Trial of Primacy has finally arrived, pitting Earth's mightiest champions against one another in a hostile environment filled with deadly surprises. Elijah is primed to compete, but he won't face the Trial alone . . .

Fighting by his side are Sadie Song, a mighty Crusader whose faith-driven power exacts a heavy toll; Dat Bao, a lethal Witch Hunter driven by loyalty; Kurik, a dwarven Sapper whose ingenuity can turn the tide of any battle; and Ron, a Healer struggling to preserve compassion in a world determined to devour the weak. Together, they'll confront the nine challenges, each representing a different realm attached to the World Tree.

But evil lurks in the shadows of their quest, taking the form of the silver-masked Immortals who seek to turn the Trial to their advantage, setting them on a collision course with Elijah and his companions. And on the excised world of Ka'arath, every victory is paid for in blood, while every failure echoes far beyond the Trial itself.

Now, as the Immortals move to seize control, Elijah must rise--or watch as the Trial of Primacy is forged into a weapon casting humanity's future into darkness.
