Initialization (Dragon Dale Beta #1)

Dante Battle is a gamer. A true lover of video games. They were his retreat and refuge when his school and personal life became a bit to hectic to handle and as of late, things had been feeling slightly more hectic than usual. That's why when he receives an email inviting him to play the beta version of the newest installment in the Dragon Dale series, his favorite video game of all time, it almost seems too good to be true.

Excitedly he jumps at the offer and enters a VR game world beyond his wildest dream. However, once inside the Dragon Dale game Dante realizes things are not as simple as he expected. Logging out of the game is no longer an option and it turns out that dying in game means death in real life. Dante must now use all of his video game knowledge and the help of the other players trapped inside to not only navigate the dangerous world of Dragon Dale but to also the deal with the sinister employees of the Dytorus Corporation, the ominous company that has left them stranded in such perilous situation, and who also currently have the only means of getting them out.

Now Dante Battle and his adventuring companions must navigate their way through the life like world of Deos, the setting of the newest Dragon Dale RPG. He and his party must find a path back home, all the while avoiding the dangerous monsters, powerful magic and dark forces that populate the game world. There will be no resets, respawns or save points as Dante uses all aspects of his video game knowledge to try and survive Dragon Dale Beta.
