Description: [edit] [history]

This progression fantasy LitRPG features Shane, a game developer, who finds himself reborn into the world he helped create. As he explores the game, he discovers that the AI Director, which he also made, controls many of the game's systems. Shane must navigate the game's challenges and unravel the mystery behind the AI Director's actions while uncovering the truth about his own identity.

Shane Carther works as a developer for an ambitious new AAA game. The game, Endless Veil is an open-world RPG with contextual quests and endless procedural generation powered by an AI Director of Shane's own making.

The game world is populated by random events, dungeons, NPC outposts, portals, boss fights, wandering merchants, and more. Through machine learning, all of these encounters have context and backstory.

Right before the game's launch, Shane wakes up inside his own game. At first, this looks like a blessing as Shane has a robust custom class that gives him many more opportunities than usual to acquire power—and exciting loot.

Shane quickly learns that life in his game's world is authentic and deadly. Even though he respawns endlessly after dying, there are fates worse than death and rebirth.

Volume 1 is live on Amazon's Kindle Vella platform - The Man Who Taught The Machine - Volume 1 (The first 3 Chapters are FREE to read!)
