The third book in the The Way of the Shaman series, one of the highest rated LitRPGs of our time
Is the Shaman a mere pawn in the game of the powerful? Mahan has an emphatic answer to that!
Barliona. A virtual world packed to bursting with monsters, battles and of course players. The star of Mahan, the hacker sentenced to serve his time in Barlion, is rising fast among them. After the upheaval in the game system, the Barlion clans are competing to see who can grab a bigger chunk of power and who will side with the new empire. Mahan is suddenly the centre of attention, even more so, when the Corporation, that runs the game, will be firmly connected to the whole new large-scale scenario, which all the top players on the server are grinding their teeth to conquer.
It takes a strong team to go to the Dark Forest, but first Mahan has to earn the respect and the right to lead. Otherwise, there is a risk that no one will trust his instincts as a shaman - and that instead of uncovering secrets, Malabar's greatest heroes will end up as vampire dinners...
