Take the potion, die, and awaken in a different version of you – here, in another time, or in another universe entirely.
In books I-V of the ([O]) series, follow Virgil in his quest through lives to reunite with his lost wife, finding instead a new family and a mysterious cabal using his invention to rule the multiverse from a Dyson Sphere populated by clones in the distant future.
Enjoy re-reads as the unique use of "choose your own adventure" storytelling gives you the option to stay in the action, delve into the literary fiction slice of life of a version of VIrgil overwritten by the scientist's jump, or read the novel from start to finish and ignore the rules, reading from the perspective of a timeless being. Whichever way you choose to read Chill Hell Immortal, you'll enjoy the ride.
