About The Book:

Every great story starts with someone who didn’t think they were the hero.

You’ve spent years watching, reading, and playing as the heroes of your favorite universes and franchises overcome impossible odds, build their found family of allies & supporters, and rise to meet their destinies and change their worlds.

But what if the story you’ve always been longing to start is your own?

What if the greatest game you’ll ever play is the one you’re already living?

Welcome to Real Life is an RPG, a fresh, empowering perspective on life that will forever change the way you see yourself, your struggles, your goals, and your potential.

Part adventure, part recovery story, and part field guide for the modern geek, this book is for anyone who’s ever found truth in a fantasy world and wondered how to bring it home to Real Life.

Drawing on decades of personal transformation, from battling depression and addiction to embracing health, freedom, and purpose, Kenny Palurintano weaves together the best of geek culture, spirituality, psychology, and practical wisdom.

From dozens of lessons built into games across the RPG genre to that time Kenny went to an actual school for wizards, from Goku’s indomitable will to succeed to what we can learn about dealing with our inner demons from characters like Elric of Melnibone and Marvel’s Blade, this book is a one-of-a-kind manual for the world we live in.

You’re the Main Character of this story.

It’s time to start your quest.

So, are you ready to level up?
