In this world, becoming a hero is the punishment—not the reward.
In a world where heroism is not a privilege but a punishment, the worst criminals are condemned to serve as Heroes on the front lines against monstrous threats. For those sentenced, glory is meaningless—survival is the real challenge. Forced into a deadly role they never wanted, a condemned warrior must navigate brutal battles, political manipulation, and uneasy alliances while questioning what it truly means to be a hero. Dark, action-packed, and filled with moral complexity, Sentenced to Be a Hero offers a fresh twist on the fantasy genre.
