Canon Notes

Series cap audit (2026-10-18): 12 published Kindle volumes. The Amazon series page for B09ZKFTLSF reads '12 book series' and Goodreads lists 12 primary works for the series, with Book 12 (Ruin) published June 24, 2026. The queue's 'Books 1-10' was a hint only.
Kindle ASIN B0BV4G3XJW is from this volume's own Amazon listing (canonical /dp/ URL, title 'Abyss: A LitRPG Adventure (Unbound Book 7)') and matches the same title and blurb on the Goodreads series page, a second source.
Release date: Amazon's Publication date field. Goodreads and MyKindleWatchlist confirm the year only; the exact day has no second source. No conflict found.
Source limits: the lore cache (books.json empty; chapters.txt holds only an early arc list; progression.txt holds character bios and chapter-labelled stat blocks for the whole series, not by book) has no per-book summaries. Plot content is therefore taken from the Amazon blurb. Lines marked 'bridge' use the next volume's blurb opening only to state where this book ends; nothing further from later books is used.
Felix's surname is 'Nevarre' in the Amazon Fury blurb and the wiki; characters/felix-nezar.md spells it 'Nezar'. The character file is out of scope here and was not edited.
