Mitchell Prince is a software engineer, a chronic gamer, and a spectacular self-saboteur. He's in the middle of ruining his relationships, his career, and his liver when an interdimensional portal drags him out of his favorite bar and into the worst situation imaginable: a galaxy-spanning RPG competition with the fate of humanity as the prize.
The rules are simple. Fight your way through the gates to the galactic core. Earn the respect of the ancient civilizations who live there. Win humanity's place among the stars or watch the Great Game's clock hit zero and take eight billion lives with it.
Mitch has godlike abilities he barely understands, a group of disillusioned friends at his side, and a giant axolotl who eats everything and anything. What he doesn't have is the ability to get out of his own way.
He's always been his own worst enemy. Now the universe is counting on him anyway.
Additional information: This edition comes shipped and signed by the author and includes some fun swag and goodies related to the book that may or may not include axolotls.
“Enter the Cosmic Spiral by J. Fitzpatrick Mauldin is an absolute blast from start to finish. The story hooks you immediately and never lets up, charging forward with energy, humor, and nonstop momentum. It feels like stepping into a perfectly balanced mix of character-driven comedy and high-stakes sci-fi, imagine the camaraderie of Friends fused with the intensity of Starship Troopers and the sweeping scope of Battlestar Galactica.” - AR 5/5
“It’s funny, strange, ambitious, packed with potential, and leaves you wanting to see just how far this spiral goes. If you like LitRPG, progression fantasy, aliens, space battles, found-family crews, and galaxy-sized stakes, buckle up—we’re going to space.” - Readers Beware 4.5/5
