WARNING: Welcome to your new favorite genre.

LitRPG/GameLit is genre that incorporates gaming elements from tabletop roleplaying games like Dungeons and Dragons and Pathfinder with epic RPG video games like The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim and MMO’s like World of Warcraft and sets them in a fantasy or science fiction setting. It generally has leveling, stat tables, character sheets and skill progressions. If you’re new to LitRPG or GameLit, then The Realms is the perfect place to start. Prepare to lose sleep. You have been warned.

Scourge of Souls
Gryph would give his life for his sister but saving her could cost him his soul.


Gryph entered the Realms with one mission, to save his sister Brynn. He didn’t want friends. He didn’t want responsibilities. He didn’t want to care. But even the best-laid plans go awry, and after escaping a sentient dungeon and defeating a would-be world conqueror, Gryph is no closer to finding Brynn.

Then, while mourning the tragic death of a friend and grappling with the burdens of leadership, an ally, thought long dead, returns offering the slimmest of hopes. 

This hope takes Gryph and his friends on a journey through strange lands where they must outwit a mystical crime syndicate, evade an infallible bounty hunter and face-off against Brynn herself, now a goddess with no memory of her true self.

Gryph must triumph over them all. If he fails, both he and his sister will not only lose their lives, they will lose their souls.

The Forsaken God

“We could end this war before it begins.”

Gryph thought freeing his sister Brynn from the shackles of the High God would be the end of his mission.

Only to learn it was just the beginning.

Tasked with building an army for the Resistance, Gryph quickly realizes it will never be enough to curb the High God’s despotic quest to control the Realms.

Victory seems hopeless.

But then a long-buried secret resurfaces, and a desperate plan is hatched.

The survival of the Realms is in Gryph’s hands. If he fails, billions of souls will suffer a fate worse than death.  

Can Gryph uncover the mysteries of his past in time to save the Realms, or will his actions hand victory to the High God?

The Forsaken God continues the #1 Bestselling epic LitRPG saga that began in Barrow King. The Realms will never be the same.

Chaos Rising

Even the gods fear the rise of chaos. 

WAR IS COMING TO THE REALMS, and only Gryph and the power of his Godhead can prevent the apocalypse. With his loyal NPC Lex at his side, Gryph races to rescue a spy with information critical to the survival of his people. 

A spy who happens to be Gryph’s younger sister.

But when an unknown foe rips Gryph from the Realms, Lex must lead a rag-tag bunch of companions to find the one man who can get Gryph back.

After reading an editorial claiming Dungeons and Dragons drove kids to worship dark forces in the sewers, C.M. Carney's mother immediately bought it for him. He was ten, and it's probably a good thing he was afraid of sewers. Since then he has been obsessed with reading, writing and playing all things fantasy and science fiction.

After spending nearly two decades working as a creative executive for an animation and SFX studio, C.M. decided to pursue his lifelong dream of writing and publishing novels and short stories.

He writes sci-fi, fantasy and LitRPG that run the gamut from epic to humorous. His first novel Barrow King: Book One of The Realms was published in February 2018 and has become a #1 Bestseller in Norse and Viking Myths and Legends and a #1 Bestseller in Role Playing and Fantasy Games.

He loves hearing from fans, like minded thinkers and anyone else who shares his dislike of sewers.

Power has its own cycles that even gods cannot escape, but each must grow their power

Did not see that coming, or that, that or that.
Lex’s snark hides a lot, or is it a little as he rarely seems to have the right answer. Could you imagine if he was leading the team?
I’m the epic battle between chaos and order, the Order Towers are the Great Wall holding back the princes of chaos. If only one had not disappeared 5000 years ago.

Another epic arc in Gryph and Lex’s story comes to a close leaving even greater challenges. Much good has come of their coming to the realms, but it isn’t all good, especially not for the poor folks of Harlan’s Tower. It just draws trouble for some reason that will become clear.

Quite a few interesting characters join the party at different times and add their own flavor but they all enjoy picking on Lex. If only anyone knew how important Lex truly is… and if anything will become of the snarky hapless NPC.
I really enjoyed this series and am looking forward to the next chapter when Gryph returns as a god reborn?
