Banned
Book 1

They shouldn't have pissed off a virtual world top player by erasing his character for a highly questionable "violation of game rules"—and taking away his valuable in-game possessions. After returning to the virtual world under a different nickname, an unknown newb puts everything on the line by selecting the most difficult Hardcore mode: a single life that's so easy to lose in the dangerous game world.

In search of his former character's treasures, the newb breaks old stereotypes to become the sandbox terror, punishing everyone: those who banned him, monsters, rivals, enemy players, and anyone else who happens to get into his sharp-clawed paws!
