Enter the Cosmic Spiral: A LitRPG Space Opera

Mitchell Prince is a software engineer, a chronic gamer, and a spectacular self-saboteur. He’s in the middle of ruining his relationships, his career, and his liver when an interdimensional portal drags him out of his favorite bar and into the worst situation imaginable: a galaxy-spanning RPG competition with the fate of humanity as the prize. The rules are simple. Fight your way through the gates to the galactic core. Earn the respect of the ancient civilizations who live there. Win humanity's place among the stars or watch the Great Game's clock hit zero and take eight billion lives with it. Mitch has godlike abilities he barely understands, a group of disillusioned friends at his side, and a giant axolotl who eats everything and anything. What he doesn't have is the ability to get out of his own way. He's always been his own worst enemy. Now the universe is counting on him anyway.
