Forbidden Zone: A Space Opera, Post-Apocalyptic LitRPG

The truth is out. Now John has to survive it.

John thought exposing the Galactic Council’s deception would change everything.

He was right.

Now he and his allies are fugitives, hunted across the galaxy by the very powers that once claimed to protect civilization. Escaping Irvina is only the beginning — with old alliances breaking, friends divided, and enemies closing in, every step brings them closer to disaster.

But the System Quest remains unfinished.

And the only path forward leads into the Forbidden Zone.
