About the author

Michael Chatfield is a Canadian Army veteran and international bestselling author who writes the kind of books he always wanted to read—character-driven, gritty, tactical, and grounded in reality.

He doesn’t write one-dimensional killers wrapped in plot armor, charging toward an objective without thought. His stories are built for readers who want earned progression, tight, understandable logic, and realistic strategy. Every stat system has structure. Every decision is deliberate (except when there is Jaeger involved).

And the pacing? It's locked at two hundred percent. From alleyway brawls to starship armadas clashing over galactic sovereignty, from tactical dungeon assaults to city-states warring over a continent’s fate—Chatfield commits to every battle like it’s his last.

With millions of books and audiobooks sold, and tens of thousands of reviews his work spans LitRPG, military sci-fi, fantasy, and post-apocalyptic survival. He writes for readers who value systems that make sense, loyalty that lasts, and power that’s earned, not handed out.

Whether you're listening on a long drive, grinding through a shift, or up past midnight planning the next in-game raid—this is where you’ll find sagas to binge. Where strength is earned, logic rules, and camaraderie is forged in fire.

A master strock, seriously. People bitched about the author nerfing Dave, but everything change in this book! Politics, actions, camaraderie we get all this as usual. And the humor stay the same, the author even diss himself.

[Rodger Nelson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Man this book shows what happens when you piss Dave off big time. Threaten his family not only is he going to kill you he is going to utterly destroy you. Kneel! and you have to obey. I feel sorry for the lord of Darkness. He thought he was going to be able to throw his weight around but low and behold he walked straight and kicked a mithril board.. Steel is just too weak.. That board is made out of one hundred percent mithril. And the idiot had to go and tick it off. Poor, poor stupid bastard... -_-. Then the Jukal.. All the signs where there but were they paying attention... NO..... They were having too much fun. Then well Dave simply says open Pandora's Box and lets loose with all his nice and fun toys. Want to kill us by wiping us out with our own nanites. Heheh no... Want to blow us up.... Hahaaha... Missiles away... Had to also laugh of all the people who were attacked the ones that the Angels truly stopped screwing with after one shot were the Dwarven mountains. They wiped out all the Angels that came after them. Cant wait to see the next book. Wonder what is going to happen. Is it going to be massive space battles or what?

“Annnd... Action!”

The first shots of the War for Freeing Emerilia are finally taken. Battles rage, power is released, and gods are reborn. Yeah, if you’ve been following the series so far this book is what you’ve been waiting for. Recommended.

It's a good continuation of a great series. The Pantheon War happens as forecast by the last couple of novels. The beginning and middle of it is great, and delivered the action/drama that the author is known for. However, the ending falls a bit flat which leaves you in a weird position. You are anxious for the next book, but mourning what could have been.

I have a basic rule for a book series. All good villains desires a death scene. The author changes Bob, and puts him near the Lady of Air's residence. Any chance meeting between the two could show the pointlessness of this war and what is about to come. It could show also the strength of Bob's new body. Alas, she is discarded quicker than one of Steve's one-liners.

I also wondered, "Deia\Dave, why not ask Bob instead of Fire?". That quest just seemed that it was pulled out of thin air. It's important, but...

Last issue: Dave defeats Dark one time. Dave defeats Dark for good by reading a book?


It's a good read, but I wish he spent more time concentrating on the Pantheon War, instead of prepping/hurrying to get the next one started. It's good, but the other books were great.

Well what was missing in the others books got recuperated in this one with spades, it regained the energy that was dissipating in the series. Even so the demerit of the others are still as present in this one, what it’s really bothering is that reality for some is still treated as a game even by those who know better for example when they star waking up the players form the earth simulation they star acting like gamers in a new game, even after having the truth revealed to them, even worse Dave even decides to establish a quest system so they would be more motivated to improve and gain exp. Considering the whole situation as if it was one big game where they need to do quest to get better characters it creates a dissonance when character should be well aware of how real everything is but the book is still treating things as if it was a game. Even so this book revitalizes the series as a whole for me.

I found myself skipping the fight scenes starting a couple of books back. To me, after the first seven or so books where the fights pretty much develop the same way I lost interest.

I still find the advances and planning interesting and I'm absorbed in the underdog empire fight.

I'm disappointed the awakened humans can use magic but can't be revived on the altars of rebirth. Wasn't the method of awakening the humans their alternate to the altars? Maybe the ability will be added in the future. Also, more Josh and Cassie.

Just a fantastic saga -5 stars all the way

Patheon war of the gods, battles with new species and then the grand finale. Just a fantastic and exciting story. Really laughed at the politico's antics as it mirrors our reality and our elected officals' desires to create personal power, no matter the cost.

Sad that there's only one more book left, but excited to read it. Michael Chatfield is an awesome author. If you havent done so, check out his 10 Realms series, starting with "the 2 week curse".

Better than the last one

Compared to book 9, this one was actually readable. I still like the concept and the characters, but I lost faith in the author after the last book. In fact, I almost stopped reading the series altogether. But this book lacked most of the horrible writing and nonexistent editing of the last book. I'll be reading the next one, and hopefully it won't let me down.

[Christopher Ruotolo · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow, talk about an amazing book

With the prior book loading up the final fight for Emerilia, this book takes that progress, pairs it with a well thought out storyline, amazing characters, and feeling, and moves us with some enthusiasm into the last book of this awesome series.

This will be one of those ultra rare series where we are so happy to devour the story, and so sad that it has to come to an end...

[Emma · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the best so far

Great progression of the story in this book. Possibly becomes a bit OTT switching between the different story threads at times. As usual the main characters are given lots of extra powers at every turn, but it kind of works as the enemies are so extreme. Loving this series and can't wait for the next instalment.

[Travis · Rating 3 out of 5]

A whole lot of planning comes to a head in this installment, and while it wasn't always consistent, it sure was fun. Typos were at acceptable levels in this one, although still more numerous than I would expect from a professionally edited story. Not a bad story though, so if you like these kinds of stories, you will likely enjoy this one.

[Riyaz · Rating 4 out of 5]

Finally, back to how books 1-5 were.

Much better pacing and not so much useless bits that I had to skip through like in the other books (5 -9). Especially with that battles and random jumps in story. Would love to see stats about the other characters though like there was early on with the series. Wonder how spacefaring will affect stats and powers in the sequels.

[Mark Smiles · Rating 5 out of 5]

Seriously good story

I've been an avid reader this series and it just keeps getting better and better! I would say that Emerilia is one of the best grand fiction works around if all time.

[Bolajide Adeyoye · Rating 5 out of 5]

Glorious

The author has spent quite some time building up to this moment and its exactly aseptic as we've been promised. The stakes stayed as high as they've ever been as the characters achieved as much as they ever have...it's a great addition to the series.

[Steven Oliver_Author · Rating 5 out of 5]

I can hardly wait for Book 11! Exciting and highly entertaining Science Fiction wrapped around a Fantasy game story. All 10 have been good, fun reads. Readers should know there is some strong language. Good character development, and they change in reaction to events.

[Seth · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent

This author is fantastic. Picked this series up a couple weeks ago after having read another arc from this author that only has a few books in it (so far?). That series (The Two week curse) is simply outstanding, and so I tried this. Now to next book...

[David Fletcher · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good with silly mistakes.

There story is good, the characters are funny, and the editors overlooked all of the random stat and level decreases Dave seems to get from one page to the next.

[Danny Moody · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the better books in the series. It is more focused with less perspective jumping around. The best part is that a ton of stuff happens. We get some major plot movement! There is only really one big plot point left to wrap up in the last book.

[Erica Hernandez · Rating 5 out of 5]

So good so long ;)

Thia series has been great there was a rough spot for me a few books back but I've loved all of it. This book in particular, as the newest book published at the current moment has really left me NEEDING more emerelia. Cant wait for the next book.

[Davidl Campbell'Sr · Rating 5 out of 5]

Spendid!!!!

Now this was a Super story of conquest and freedom. The author did a great of conquering the gods and then shocking the oppressors, Now onto the Universal fighting I'm sure we'll Win!!!?

[Roberto Flores · Rating 2 out of 5]

All the build up since book one, and this is what we got.

The entire pantheon concept seems pointless. The ending is expected given the time spent building it up. The whole climax is very unsatisfying.

[Zachary · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow, now that's a climactic battle!

But it's definitely not the end, so don't worry. This was a fun climax to what I think I would consider the first big arc of Chatfield's epic. I can't wait to see where things go next!

[Kriegen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fantastic

This book brings us one more huge step towards the defeat of the jukal. Interesting twist to Face and Malsours progession

Worthy addition to the series

A great continuation of the series. Do yourself a favor and read this you will not be disappointed.

Keep up the good work Michael!

[Kevin · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent book, about time author let Dave off his leash and showed what he can do. Now on to the space battles and kicking some Jukal tail.

[Innes Hill · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just keeps getting better.

If you're a gamer or just love a cracking fantasy story this is for you. Get started ,get hooked, thank me later.

[Amouen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Finally

The 8th and 9th book bored me with occasional interesting parts. Now, there was barely any part that bored me. That was a refreshing change for the series.
