The Monster Deck: A Deck-Building LitRPG

Mark Henson is a riverboat gambler at heart.

But as a practiced cheat and card counter, he’s been 86’d from half the casinos on The Strip. In his mind, he’s always one game away from his luck turning around. That is, until The System arrives—and warps Nevada (and the rest of the world) into a digital card-based game.

When Mark awakes in the slums of Lost Vegas, a deck of cards rests on his chest. But these aren’t just ordinary playing cards. They’re Monster cards. And Mark finds himself with his own unique class: Card Cheat, giving him the ability to progress through this fantastical game world, level up, and manipulate the monsters in his deck to win (or at least survive).

But Mark isn’t the only one in Lost Vegas… and in order to find his way out alive, he’ll have to master his Monster Deck, scour dungeons for new cards, and level his class in this exciting new LitRPG deck-building story.

Welcome to the first book in the series, The Monster Deck—a deck-building LitRPG and GameLit Series utilizing a card-based magic system.

Set in a parallel world (Lost Vegas), this story is a blood-pumping combination of steady power progression and survival. Perfect for fans of All the Skills and Towers of Heaven, as well as nostalgic games such as Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Magic: The Gathering. Get ready for funny characters placed in not-so-funny situations, collectable magical cards with secret powers, and tons of cliffhangers that will keep you up at night listening!

Narrated by the award-winning Gary Furlong. Gary has narrated some of the biggest LitRPG series out there: Dungeon Crawler Carl Cinematic Version by Matt Dinniman; They Called me Mad by Jpal; The Hero Slayers by OS Marrow.
