The Sovereign's Toll [A LitRPG/Isekai Adventure]

His family was his world. Now he’s in a new one.

When a fatal accident rips Caleb Foster from his wife and kids, the forty-year-old gets a second chance in a realm of dungeons and monsters. A cosmic system offers him a choice of legendary powers, but Caleb refuses the flashy magic. He chooses the abilities to learn faster, remember perfectly, and master any physical skill.

A father's instinct to protect doesn't die with his family. To survive and shield the new lives that depend on him, he must use a lifetime of quiet competence to navigate a dangerous frontier town, hunt deadly beasts, and outwit men who mistake his lack of flash for weakness.

In a place where might makes right, Caleb is about to show that the most lethal weapon is a mind that misses nothing, and a will that never quits.
