Wagga
Wagga by Alex Kozlowski follows Adrian, a construction operations manager caught in a remote wilderness job site when a mysterious energy event reshapes Earth, its ecosystems, and even its physical laws. In this post-apocalyptic landscape, every surviving creature gains access to an interface drawn from prior cosmic catastrophes, turning reality into something closer to a lethal role playing game. Stranded far from his family, Adrian must quickly understand this LitRPG-style system, adapt his own abilities, and confront newly evolved monsters and environmental threats. The novel blends science fiction and progression fantasy as it tracks his methodical efforts to survive, grow stronger, and cross a transformed world at war with itself.
