The Devouring Crown has awakened.
For the first time in thousands of years, a mortal possesses Authority that does not belong to the Seven Gods.
And all of Veyr knows his name.
The Divine Covenant is failing. Marks are malfunctioning. Dungeons are destabilizing. Monsters are emerging in greater numbers, and the gods who ruled civilization for millennia are turning against one another.
At the center of the collapse stands Dorian Voss.
The world calls him Forsaken.
The gods call him an existential threat.
But the dead god waiting beneath the Covenant knows what Dorian is truly becoming.
His search for answers reveals the secret upon which Veyr was built: the Seven were once mortal. They conquered an ancient progression system, divided its Authority among themselves, and built a civilization where every person's path to power ultimately belonged to them.
Dorian finally has enough power to destroy their monopoly.
Doing so could also destroy the world.
Millions of lives depend upon the very system he has spent years fighting. Beneath it all, the primordial intelligence known as Aruun is awakening, offering Dorian the freedom he once wanted at a price Veyr may not survive.
Destroy the Covenant.
Preserve it.
Or attempt something no god before him was willing to do.
Give the power back.
With old enemies becoming allies, gods marching toward war, and the possibility of returning to Earth finally within reach, Dorian must decide what matters more: reclaiming the life that was stolen from him or protecting the world that has become his home.
Every Fragment brought him closer.
Every battle changed him.
Every Scar remained.
Now those Scars may be the only thing capable of holding together the man Dorian was and the god he is becoming.
A God Made of Scars is the explosive conclusion to The Godless Ascendant Trilogy, a LitRPG progression fantasy saga of system-breaking advancement, divine warfare, monsters, friendship, sacrifice, evolving powers, and one man's fight to ensure that power belongs to those who earn it rather than the gods who control it.
