Get ready for more epic battles, legendary artifacts, and incredible quests… As Harriton’s Fayroll articles spark interest and his real world career seems to pick up, he remains a low-level noob in the challenging virtual world of Fayroll. Although he is an incredibly lucky noob. Without breaking a sweat, Harry – a.k.a. Hagen the Warrior – stumbles across one of the most coveted “hidden” quests. He is to save the four Dryad sisters starting with Ogina in the East. As he haphazardly sets out on The Long Road East… He manages to come out unscathed of many perils; happily swimming between two worlds; making new friends when necessary and facing foes along the way. It is at this stage, when Harry is forced to pursue a real-life mission within the world of the game, that the thin line between the two worlds appears to be much thinner. It is only a matter of time before he is bound to start asking himself the hard questions. Like what if his admirable luck runs out? Or, more importantly; is he playing his own game or just being manipulated right off the hop? After Andrey Vasiliev’s More Than a Game became an instant success with readers in Russia and worldwide alike, the author could not but continue developing the Fayroll theme. By many readers’ admission, The Road East, Vasiliev’s second LitRPG fantasy novel, is every bit as gripping as his first, if not more so. Yet again, Harriton is out to strike a balance between the real world and that of sword and sorcery, where Kif the journo turns into none other than Hagen the Warrior always prepared to win a fight or have the circumstances do it for him. This time, Hagen’s gaming path is leading eastward, unfolding the complexity of the Orient before him. He’s going to find the abandoned temple, visit the cursed village, fight the serpent king of the nagas and deal with epic monsters, all of which is accompanied by clashes of blades on shields and clashes between clans. Action and adventure seem to be hiding around every corner, just waiting to be awakened. The Road East not only expands greatly on the virtual reality of Fayroll but also develops the real world of the story to a much fuller extent than the first novel does. It’s not just about a new assignment or new employers or a new girlfriend. The depiction of the offline reality of the second novel is now on a par with that of the gaming world – a rare find for a LitRPG book. Vasiliev is certainly growing as a writer. His characters are becoming more and more round, dynamic and versatile – and even psychologically convincing. The author also manages to maintain his attention to detail and sharpness of focus with a nearly cinematic clarity. The Road East is a concentration of dialogue and action, coupled with a characteristic sense of humor comprised of self-irony and mild mockery, never going too far but adding color and flavor to the story. The book is a fine example of the LitRPG genre and, as is the case with More Than A Game, is a life-affirming experience, well worth reading by gamers and fantasy lovers alike. Andrey Vasiliev started writing in his late thirties, because, by his own admission, “he ran out of things to read”. However, after his first two books gained nearly instant critical acclaim, he had to give serious thought to giving up his banking career and went on to become one of the top authors in the relatively new, yet insanely popular, LitRPG genre that brings together cyberpunk, classic sci-fi, and fantasy. less

The weakened but undefeated clan is ready to fight for its survival until the very last drop of blood. The new clan leader, the brave warrior Hagen, raises the banner and prepares for a brutal war in the Borderlands. - Why should it always be me?

Hagen raises the Clan Blade above his head as a symbol of power and takes up the duties of a clan leader.

This is going to be a long night, for I have an epic tale to tell you. Let me tell you the story about how I— Oh, I already told you about that? Well, fine. I guess I should continue from where we left off then. So, let me see. Where to even begin? Wars have broken the world of Fayroll. The Gelts fight for their new king. Dark creatures from our worst nightmares stick their teeth and claws into the flesh and bone of Light Orders. Guilds prepare armor and weapons for the great battle. All the while, one little clan is clamped between Scylla and Charybdis. It isn’t a large or strong clan, and, compared to all of the other local communities, it’s more like a small camp. Still, it’s my clan, and I don’t want anything to happen to it... "The Right to Choose" is the 10th installment in the epic LitRPG Fayroll series. The road has been tame so far in comparison to what lays ahead for Harriton and his in-game life as Hagen. There are still a mountain of quests to find and complete, battles to wage and win, and friends to invite. Be careful, fellow adventurer, Fayroll is more than a game, more than a LitRPG and really more than Gamelit!

And yet, still… What we consider difficult times often opens what was hidden to us before. New enemies, evil motives, and mystery appear right between our character. He can fight back with his physical strength and mighty weapons in Fayroll, but while offline he has no sword in his hand or spells at his fingertips. The only thing he can count on? His instinct to survive, his intelligence, the few friends left and... Raidion? Or can he really trust someone whose secrets are guarded so much? less
