Last Save Dave

A LitRPG Adventure

By: Michael James Ploof

Narrated by: Garrett Michael Brown

The game has begun, and Dave is all out of extra lives.

Dave Deranger, a middle-aged plumber, was the 1990 Nintendo Champion and an Olympic silver medalist in boxing. Since then, his greatest challenge has been trying to quit smoking and plunging toilets.

That all changes when an immature deity named Tyme abducts him to be her champion in a "intergalactic scavenger hunt." The prize? His world is spared. The penalty for losing? Earth gets vaporized by a massive laser pointer from space.

Transported to the Tree of One Thousand Worlds, Dave is armed with nothing but his cherished 44-pound, heavy-duty cast-iron pipe wrench, Vevor, and a set of god-given time-manipulation abilities. In this cosmic game, death isn't the end—it's a mechanic.

With the power to Save Progress and Return to Last Save, Dave can undo his most gruesome mistakes, provided he has the magical talismans to pay the cost. But he isn’t the only champion on the branches.

Join the start of this LitRPG adventure featuring a grizzled underdog MC with a wrench, unique time mechanics, steady power progression, crunchy stats, high-stakes party dynamics, and loads of legendary loot.

Perfect for fans of Discount Dan, Dungeon Crawler Carl, and An Unexpected Hero!
