Empyrean Chronicles by Michael Dalton is a LitRPG fantasy series published between 2022 and 2023. The four books follow a character’s ascent through the ranks of a fantasy world called Empyrea, from hired sword to the most powerful ruler in the realm.
The series progresses through Mercenary of Empyrea, Adventurer of Empyrea, Warlord of Empyrea, and God-King of Empyrea. The titles trace the protagonist’s rise, and the LitRPG elements give the story a game-like progression system where the character grows stronger with each challenge overcome.
