“Once this crazy ride starts, you’ll never want to get off.” –Matt Dinniman, New York Times bestselling author of Dungeon Crawler Carl
Fortune favors the strong. Two veterans are about to show a magical world what modern military discipline can do in this action-fantasy adventure from international bestselling author Michael Chatfield.
Erik West served as a combat medic alongside his marine buddy Jimmy ‘Rugrat’ Rodriguez.
After being marked with the two week curse, they have just 14 days until they’re teleported from their lives. No one else that has been ‘cursed’ has ever returned. All of them have started seeing stat screens and being able to do things that should only be possible in games.
When the curse teleports them to the first realm they’re going to have to learn and quickly. Strength is security here and they’ll have to use all of their newfound skills and abilities combined with all their training and knowledge to forge their own path.
THE TWO WEEK CURSE is the first book in the addictive million-copy bestselling TEN REALMS series, where tactical military science fiction combat meets high-stakes LitRPG progression fantasy.
About the Series: Follow the journey of Erik and Rugrat, two combat-hardened soldiers who are transported from Earth to the mystical Ten Realms after contracting the “two-week curse.” The story details their rapid adaptation to this new reality, where they utilize their military discipline and modern medical knowledge to master magic, alchemy, and smithing.
For fans of: Dungeon Crawler Carl, Cradle, Defiance of a Fall, The Primal Hunter, Solo Leveling, Hell’s Gate, Stargate, Forgotten Realms, The Light Brigade, and The Murderbot Diaries.
About the Book (Age of Stone)
Dark fantasy meets Dungeon Core LitRPG in the bestselling Age of Stone (Rise of Mankind, Book 1)!
An Epic Dungeon Adventure. A post-apocalyptic event. Can Matt thrive in this new reality or will he fall to the odds stacked against him?
In all the games Matt has played, Dungeons are places to raid, places you dream of conquering, but when the world is stripped of electricity, and the first mana-twisted beasts start to prowl, the games all come to an end…
Matt’s just an ordinary guy, but when he’s beaten, robbed, and left for dead, bleeding out at the bottom of a gully, it all has to change as he grasps frantically at his only chance for survival, coming as it does in the form of a glowing, dangerously pulsing light.
With his reality forever altered, Matt must quickly find a suitable place to deploy the Dungeon Core, fighting his way through the hundreds of people between him and safety, because if he doesn’t do it soon, a Core Detonation will solve all of his problems for him… permanently.
Welcome to the New World.
Experience a dark apocalyptic LitRPG Dungeon Core tale, Matt is a normal guy, pushed into terrible situations, and without anyone to hold his hand and explain the system. This is a weak-to-strong tale about doing what’s right, not what’s easy, in a nightmarish world. Fans of Dungeon Core stories, progression fantasy and strategy real time expansion games are sure to love it.

About the Author (Age of Stone)
Jez Cajiao ditched school at 11 to join the family catering circus–because who needs algebra when you’ve got appetizers, right?
After feeding people for years, he escaped to Greece to sling drinks and live his best bartender life. (The stories from that era are locked in a vault marked “What Happens in Greece…”)
Next came welding–sparks flying, metal melting, living the dream! Until his lungs said “nope” and gave him welder’s lung as a not-so-fun parting gift.
Then 2020 happened. Pandemic + dodgy lungs = mandatory couch time. But instead of binge-watching Netflix like a normal person, Jez decided to write. Every. Damn. Day.
Plot twist: readers actually liked his stuff! Now he’s living his best author life in South Shields, surrounded by his wife, two kids, two dogs, three cats, two geckos, one hamster, 20 chickens (don’t ask) and the legendary Sanddancers (local dance troupe or mythical creatures–you decide).
Stalk him on Facebook, Discord, Instagram, and TikTok where he’s basically the friendliest author on the internet!
