We escaped from New York City, but the mages are still hot on our heels. We’re heading west, to see a man about a gun.
Actually, a lot of guns.
Any gun I touch I can summon back, so I need to grow my arsenal to have a chance to fend off our pursuers and make it to the west coast. Unfortunately, we’ll have to traverse miles mutant-infested wilderness to get to our contact, and even if we make it through the mutant lands, the mages could easily be waiting for us on the other side.
In a post disaster New world, a new type of Mage has been released into a world of mages. This mage will rather save or destroy the world. This mage can do something different than the normal elemental, but he can use Guns that he can create after he touched a new one. His knowledge is hard to come by because this world is no longer modern, but swords and bows are the weapons other than magic. This is fun and exciting to read and I read as much as I could. Can't wait for where we are going next. Read in 2 days.
More fun magic fun. On the run as usual. The MC must learn about his magic and how to handle guns in general. Safety first... Unless your a red mage then terminate. This book also shows hints of a bigger world and more problems than just the red mages and the magisterium.. Looking forward to the next one.
The second book was a good, fast read and enjoyable as the main character and supporting cast are well written and with good dialogue. The world building is good, bit off sometimes and the main character's strategy is sometimes frustrating... But a good fun simple read.
This storyline has such an interesting twist on magic and apocalyptic event. You can't help getting sucked into the story!! More more more... I can hardly wait to see where this story leads
Fun and lighthearted, I am interested in how this story plays out. It is simple so far, with my own personal interest in guns, getting more guns, how to use guns, and how awesome guns would be with magic behind them.
I so love this series so damn much I so love the idea of a gun mage ,the characters are very relatable and the plot is really good .I can't wait for the next in the series
Is currently my favorite series from this author right now. Well fleshed characters and a very interesting world that they introduced with this series. I highly recommended this book to others.
Heading west to safety the two mages fled to their pursuers. Heading through the countryside. A good read. they are barely ahead of the mages hunting them and are forced to detour through the mutant reservation. A good read.
Fun read while staying home during COVID. I like the story and the world building. My main complaint is that the MC kills too many people without any second thought. Many of them are just doing their job and he kills them with no remorse.
This was a great tale! Our hero's finally made it out of New York city and after several perilous encounters on the way the made it to Motown and met Charles Darwin. More action ensues as they escape from town and head west. Looking forward to book 3!
This book continues where the last one left off. I am really starting to like the way the author describes things in a post meteor world. I also liked that to more people have been added to the party.
Enjoyable story with good character building. I like that the young mans magic is to conjure guns. The story is set in a time when magic rules and guns are forbidden.
Enjoyed the story, definitely better than the first book. It would be interesting to see where the adventures take them with the new additions to the group.
I thoroughly enjoyed this second volume of LJ's take on a dystopian future with magic. Some of the references are lost on a non US resident, truly enjoyed it.
What an entertaining read this book was. I thoroughly enjoy the world's this author continues to create and lead us through. Excitedly awaiting the next book!
