Storm's Breath
Someone who didn’t know Pavel might mistake his heroic bravery for a death wish, and there’s no better place for either than the world’s first fully immersive game. Sure enough, the competitors are intimidating, and the monsters terrifying — though neither more so than blossoming friendships with two determined swordswomen.
Spurred by pure-hearted altruism alone, Pavel joins their quest to find the Storm’s Breath: an artifact that bestows magic powers — and real-world riches — upon the first player to find it. And with a ruthless mage on their heels, he’ll find plenty of opportunities for bravery.

Praise for Storm's Breath
With its pacey, punchy plot and wittily sharp narrative, Storm’s Breath plunges the reader straight into the mind of a teen boy fighting for his freedom – and with his hormones. A virtual-reality adventure that is both otherworldly and human, J.R. Ford’s novel brings a fresh approach to the genre through characters that are as three-dimensional as the game which they’re playing.

Pavel has not only survived in this brutal immersive role-playing game, he’s thrived — from clueless newbie to expert duelist, Level 1 Nullifier, and somewhat trustworthy partymate to the best friends he’s ever had. If only he hadn’t been maimed along the way.
Now his friends seek the power to heal him, but with two hostile guilds and aggressive new monsters breathing down their necks, all he can do is try to keep up.
His friends trust him.
He hopes it doesn’t get them killed.

Pavel Cernik is a controversial figure in the besieged city of Bluehearth: an infamously proficient player-killer thanks to his unique class and unparalleled bladework; hunted by mages, militia, and a max-level prick; and barely hindered by insomnia and self-doubt. A hero, plausibly.
And with the fate of the city resting on his shoulders, he’ll need every shred of skill, cunning, and courage he can convince himself to muster. It’s that or be crushed under the weight of all his lies. And in a virtual reality MMO where players only get one life, game over means irreparable separation from his in-game girlfriend.
Good thing he’s a hero now.
