Advent: Red Mage
Book 1 and 2 of the Redmage series are being published on Amazon Kindle Unlimited. Due to the exclusivity clause, I have been forced to take down the vast majority of the book. You can read book one here. Book two here.Drew Michalik was working in a top-secret facility in Washington, D.C. when the Advent began. As all electronics in the world simply ceased to work, blue screens filled with information appeared before him. Drew gained access to a mana interface and a limited number of reality-altering crystals called Xatherite. Following the instructions on his vision-impairing screens, he ‘slotted’ his Xatherite and changed his fate: he gained the ability to cast spells. Now alone in the dark, he must battle through the government bunker-turned-dungeon in a desperate bid for survival. Escape is only the beginning; the first of his many problems in the changed world. Drew will be tasked to not only survive… but to guide the rest of humanity safely through the anarchy. Light LitRPG elements, no harem. Updates on Monday.

A world irrevocably altered by beings of supernatural inclination. Those people we know as more than human. Metahuman, suits, capes, supers. Heroes and Villains. The bearers of powers beyond the imagination. People capable of great good or great evil but greatness all the same. The capacity for the supernatural. The ability to move mountains with the mind. To travel across the world in a blink. To dance upon the moon. Commune with powers and energies unbeknownst to even those gifted with enhanced intelligence. To break the laws of physics and reality altogether. This is a story of growth. A young man, living near a PAT known for just that, beginning truly at the start. They say the moment a super originates is their true birth. The genesis of an individual shedding the chains of humanity and ascending into something greater. Whether good or bad, it was nearly a given that any super was destined for something extraordinary. That grand story, however, did not always start as miracle. For Ludus Rowth, it began with electrical baptism.
