If you need some convincing, please check out the following reviews:
Canthany Rising showcases a pithy story with an ensemble narrative and features battle scenes that are thrilling and reminiscent of an all-consuming role-playing game. – The Book Review Directory
I found myself deeply invested in the sheer psychological shock T’alla experiences as she inherits a bipedal body along with an entirely new emotional spectrum filled with anxiety and grief. Bliss does a remarkable job of illustrating that internal change in T’alla; she isn’t just learning to swing a staff, she is actively fighting the urge to drop to all fours and sprint away from her problems. – David Jaggart, Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews
Canthany Rising is a refreshing, genre-bending addition to speculative fiction. It caters not only to fans of the rapidly growing LitRPG genre but also to readers seeking character-driven fantasy with profound spiritual stakes. Bliss has managed to create a world that is both entertaining to “play” through mentally and enriching to reflect upon spiritually. – WorldAuthors.org
“Canthany Rising is an imaginative and action-packed fantasy adventure that brilliantly combines LitRPG mechanics, spiritual warfare, and themes of faith and redemption, drawing readers into an epic world where unlikely heroes must level up, unite, and fight for the soul of an entire realm.” – NewInBooks
“Bliss has built something genuinely unusual: a fantasy novelette where the RPG mechanics are not decorative but theological. The protagonist, a cat transformed into a humanoid Psionicist after the Fall of Eden, is an unlikely but effective anchor for a story about sacrificial leadership and spiritual warfare. Readers looking for faith-based fantasy that takes both the faith and the fantasy seriously will find it here.” – Rich Man Magazine
“An innovative adventure for fans of Christian fantasy and RPGs, Canthany Rising is an entertaining, inspirational, and immensely creative read. Layered with biblical themes of sacrifice, service, fellowship, and the perils of spiritual warfare, this anthropomorphic allegory is a compelling journey through a fantastical realm that can appeal to a wide swath of readers. Stressing the power of faith, as well as the power required to defend it, this original novel has the potential to reach a new generation of believers.” Self-Publishing Review, ★★★★½
I hope you’ll come join my LitRPG world, where Christian values, psionics and the supernatural meet!
Thanks and may God bless you!

I am a Mathematics and Computer Science degree holder from the University of Michigan-Flint...which has nothing to do with writing. I am also a retired insurance professional of thirty-three years...which barely has anything to do with writing.
