”More like a cat call whistle than a steam one! I look forward to the next book.” - Ray Johnson, LitRPG Audiobook Podcast

Jacob needs a change. Sure, spending his days chained to a VR rig testing full immersion games sounds like a dream job, but it gets old.

So when Jacob sees the odd, goggle-wearing man swinging an invisible sword through the streets of downtown Seattle, he follows him.

Now, Jacob finds himself playing in the real world, turned breathtakingly steampunk by the wonders of augmented reality. Accompanied by his biosyntetic monkey Banjo and a colorful team of characters, Jacob must push the limits of the technology and his body in an effort to recover the items that will award him a prize beyond imagination - the deed to Steam Whistle Alley.

Will he succeed? Or will he succumb to the forces who aren’t playing games, and want to pull the game down around him? Read Joshua Mason’s Steam Whistle Alley today and find out.

”Great imagination and world building can't wait for the next one!”

“There are only a handful of gamelit stories that make me wish I could play too, but this is one of the best I’ve read in a while.”

"I picked this story up on a recommendation from a friend and oh am I glad that I did. This has been a very fun and extremely engaging read. I wasn't able to put the story down until I finished."
