Mark Nicholson isn't your typical African American otaku from Alabama, but one stormy night, everything changes. Connected to the Nerve Core Virtual Reality gaming system, Mark and his childhood friends, Bonner and Q, are transported through a tunnel of light and dark into another world that mirrors a video game they once tried during a mysterious update. He was yearning for change and thirsting for adventure. Mark sheds his mediocrity to embrace a new identity alongside his friends, driven by an ambitious goal: World Domination. Though this world, entrenched in its own ideals, will surely resist, can Mark and his friends acquire the power needed to conquer their new realm?! The cover art is by Kucing Pawpaw on Fiverr.
