“The Keeper of the Dungeon” is a fantasy novel by Alex Kosh, the third book of the “Solitary” cycle. Genres: battle fantasy, heroic fantasy, and steampunk. After just getting one of the five swords for a goddess quest, Falk can’t wait to go after the second one—because what’s at stake isn’t only a virtual reward, but also a very real life. By a most unfortunate coincidence, his path leads back to a city of gremlins. Unfortunately, this time he has no money for an expensive teleport, so he will have to travel through the lands of the dwarves. A dwarf, Fram, offers to help him on the journey—but before leaving, he asks Falk to learn the secret to getting rid of the after-death curse of the god Apophis—for himself and his friends: Korn, Amina, Lert, and Ratmir. Which means Falk must urgently find common ground with the most terrifying necromancer serving the Empire—who, incidentally, is also his virtual uncle, Renik Fudre.
