Story
In a former life, Jack was gifted, meaning he possessed peculiar abilities. If rich folks found themselves in a jam, Jack could use his talents to get them out of it. Where others were sure to fail, Jack's aristocratic clientele could always count on him to finish jobs cleanly, efficiently, and leave no trace, for which his services commanded a hefty fee. But one day, Jack picked a fight with the wrong man and his old life came to an end. But, as it turned out, his story was far from over.

Story
Mark’s new life begins in the worst possible place—a burned-out village haunted by undead. Each morning these ravenous creatures disappear, only to return at night, driven by a relentless hunger. He'll need to stay low and think quick, because trapped and alone in the body of a child, he can’t level up in this new world. At least not yet. Soon Mark will learn that even among the living, safety isn’t guaranteed. When the small town that he ends up in turns out to be at the center of a conspiracy that threatens the world, he'll need to uncover the truth before it's too late.

I used to be the greatest Earth Mage in my world. The head of the entire Order of Architects. But the older you get, the more you come to realize that at some point, you need to retire, so that you can have the chance to enjoy a peaceful life and to cede your place to the young, some of whom have already turned two thousand years old . . .So that's what I did. But I failed to account for one thing: during the course of my long life, I'd accumulated too many enemies, and they had decided to spoil my retirement. So they died along with me. And I hope their deaths were final. But mine was not!

Miles “Shrug” Lindstrom received a quest years ago. He was the only person who could see the window, and in addition to the quest, he could also see a countdown to the end of the world. Part of him was hoping that he was just insane and had been hallucinating when he first started seeing the window. Then again, if the quest was just his imagination, he was going to be massively in debt with a rental full of useless junk. But when the countdown finally stops, what happens is nothing like he could have imagined.

Story
Mark’s new life begins in the worst possible place—a burned-out village haunted by undead. Each morning these ravenous creatures disappear, only to return at night, driven by a relentless hunger. He'll need to stay low and think quick, because trapped and alone in the body of a child, he can’t level up in this new world. At least not yet. Soon Mark will learn that even among the living, safety isn’t guaranteed. When the small town that he ends up in turns out to be at the center of a conspiracy that threatens the world, he'll need to uncover the truth before it's too late.

great story
awesome story with a ton of action. it's sad how many people end up dying but it's more realistic. it had a very gritty premise and the characters are very realistic and easy to emphasize with. one of my favorite main characters in a while. he is quick on his feet and a capable warrior with understandable vices. not a ton of clichéd idiotic traits.

Great world building
I enjoyed the excellent character development in the book. The pacing was well done, and I appreciate the "gritty" aspect mentioned in the reviews. The only issues I had with the story were necessary for its progression (i.e., “Why does the MC keep pushing this if he is terrified of consequences?”). The primary and side characters are likable and well-developed, but I am worried about their safety. The world-building is impressive. I'm particularly interested in learning more about the central empire in which our main character is based and the "enemy" empire.

This was highly entertaining!💜
I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed this book. It has many aspects that I enjoyed, such as paranormal/fantasy, action, adventure as well as drama and intrigue.
I loved the characters and the way there roles come together.
I almost wished I hadn’t started this series until it was completed. I don’t like waiting for the next book, instead I prefer to binge my series if possible. Especially when the stories are not standalone.
That said, I can’t wait for the next book in this series.
The narration was absolutely amazing. Jonathan Waters has the perfect voice for this genre and this series in particular. I hope the author continues to use him to tell his stories.
This is book 1 and continues to the next story.
I highly recommend this book.
