The Polymorphed Series

King
Aldrich

Where Dungeons Meet the Stars

Three books. One universe. Infinite worlds to fall into. A veteran's imagination forged into LitRPG adventures that refuse to stay in one genre — or one galaxy.

Three Worlds. One Saga.

From asteroid mines to enchanted kingdoms, each book expands a universe where the rules of magic and the rules of physics agree on only one thing: anything is possible.

Life of the Polymorphed

The Polymorphed series refuses to pick a lane — and that's precisely the point. Science fiction meets high fantasy meets game mechanics in a universe where asteroid miners can become dungeon delvers, and ancient kingdoms run on experience points and skill trees.

If you've ever wanted a world that rewards curiosity, punishes complacency, and treats every genre rule as a suggestion — welcome home.

Craylon — The Living World

Craylon is not merely a setting. It breathes. Its dungeons are  ripples of creation, and in rare cases, sentient entities with their own ambitions, its magic obeys rules as rigid as physics — and its politics are as treacherous as any knife in the back. Two men from Earth fell into it by accident. They may never want to leave.

Craylon is a world where class systems are literal, monsters bring advancment, and the Elder Dungeon Infineetus sleeps beneath it all — dreaming of the day it wakes so it may one day fulfill its desire.

How the System Works

The Polymorphed series features a fully realized stat and skill progression system — think character sheets made flesh. Characters gain experience, unlock abilities, and discover their unique class affinities as the story demands it.

Unlike many LitRPGs, the system in Polymorphed isn't a cheat code — it's a mirror. It reflects what each character truly is and what they're capable of becoming. Leveling up has never felt more earned.

Who You'll Meet

Danny Anderson — The inventor of the O-ring tech that brought humanity to the stars with an uncanny knack for surviving things that should kill him. Patient, resourceful, and growing into something neither world has seen before.

Ross Reynolds — Danny's best friend and the chaos agent of the duo. Impulsive, loyal to a fault, and somehow always first through the dungeon door.

Morten Grey — The villain who makes you understand why he chose this path. A wizzard with ambitions larger than planets and a patience that spans dimensions.

Perfect If You Love…

The Polymorphed series was written for readers who live in multiple fandoms at once. If you've ever wished your favorite sci-fi had more dungeons, or your favorite fantasy had FTL travel, this series was made for you.

Fans of The Land, Everybody Loves Large Chests, classic portal fantasy, and anime-adjacent isekai adventures will feel right at home — while discovering something that doesn't quite exist anywhere else.

King Aldrich

<p>King Aldrich is an Air Force veteran who has always been drawn to the art of storytelling. Long before the first word of the Polymorphed series hit the page, he was the one behind the screen &mdash; crafting tabletop RPG adventures for friends, building the worlds that would eventually become Craylon.</p>

<p>That passion for collaborative adventure and world-building found its natural evolution in fiction. Writing, he discovered, was the ultimate tabletop campaign &mdash; one that could reach players he'd never met, in places he'd never been.</p>

"I hope these stories are both enjoyed and hated by many — but most of all, I hope they inspire readers to cast fear aside and dive into new and undiscovered worlds. Maybe even create some of their own."

Frequently Asked

Yes — the Polymorphed series tells a continuous story with a definitive beginning, middle, and end. Starting with An Astrominer's Tale (Book 1) will give you the full context and make the payoffs in Books 2 and 3 hit much harder. Each book ends on a note designed to send you straight to the next.

The honest answer: several at once. The series is primarily classified as LitRPG and GameLit — fiction that incorporates game-like systems of stats, levels, and skills as real elements of the story world. But it also draws heavily from science fiction (asteroid mining, space travel), portal fantasy (two ordinary guys dropped into an extraordinary world), and epic adventure. If you enjoy any of those genres, you'll find something to love here.

The books are currently available as Kindle eBooks on Amazon. Paperback editions are unavailable at this time. — Check the individual book listing on Amazon for current format availability. Physical editions may temporarily become available if I decide to expand on the series at a later date.

Book 3, A Tale of Two Worlds, completes the Polymorphed trilogy. Whether King Aldrich returns to the world of Craylon, spins off into new universes, or builds something entirely different is based on future success of the series.
