I love stories along the lines of those written by FantasyLover, SW_MO_Hermit, KaHmnd, Ernest Bywater and others were the main character makes, or remakes,their life into more than they or others thought possible.
Looking for recommendations on stories or authors I may have overlooked. Thank you.
Deja Vu Ascendancy is along those lines.It'll take quite awhile to read though.
