The Dark Herbalist

Atamanov wrote one of the better LitRPG's with his science fiction Perimeter Defense series, which tells a grand strategy style tale that feels a bit like your are reading a live rendition of a 4X video game. The Dark Herbalist is his fantasy entry to the genre and a bit more traditional in the telling of it, but one that does enough to make it stand out from the rest of the books in the genre right now.
