Description

Faust wants nothing more than to make it big as an author without following all the latest trends. When he finally takes a step toward that goal, he ends up hitting his head. Next thing he knows he’s in his own novel! Or at least a version of it. Part of the Royal Road Writeathon! Please pardon grammar mistakes around the 15th. I didn’t have time to clean them up before the time for the half way mark announcement.

    Faust is sent to his own story as a character that is supposed to die.
    The main character knows about the world and doesn't spend time explaining anything.
    One of the first things we learn is that his new body has a connection to some sort of being, that speaks telepathically, named Endurance. The story gives context clues, but doesn't explain if Endurance is something like an embodied skill, or if it is a parasite, or if it is someone else.
    For the level of detail this story does include, such as pointing out the signatures of architects that are hidden in building patterns, it is surprisingly to see this lack of explanation.
    This is a sink or swim type of book. If you like a lot of unknown factors and speculating about what/who is the other people/factors, then maybe this story is for you?
