Rise of the Living Forge 5
A GameLit & LitRPG Novel by Actus
Book 5 of the Rise of the Living Forge Series
The Menagerie has finally stepped into the limelight. After taking down Twelve, Arwin and his guild have earned themselves an invitation to the Proving Grounds. But they aren't participating alone. They've been joined by new allies, each of which have their own reasons to win the tournament... and not all of them align with the Menagerie.
If they're going to come out ahead in a tournament against some of the most powerful adventurers in the Kingdom and survive against members of the Adventurer's Guild itself, Arwin is going to have to create armor the likes of which the world has never seen before.
Features a healthy mix of crafting and combat, a strong-to-stronger MC, power progression, a detailed magic system, item enchantment, smithing, unforgettable characters, and much more!
