Synopsis

Earth has ascended . . .

Magic tears through an unsuspecting planet of humans, bringing mythology and monsters to life—and providing humanity a chance to prove their mettle.

Old grudges die hard . . .

All Calum Green wants is to reach what remains of his family. Ninety miles of the Scottish Highlands stand between Calum and his family home in coastal Oban. He does not want to make that trek with his cheating ex-girlfriend's bestie at his side.

Eilidh MacIntosh has always disliked Calum, and now she's armed with a bloody claymore on top of her haughty disdain. But the ascension directive is clear: humans cannot survive this new world alone—and this pair makes an annoyingly good team.

With Calum's magic and their combined bad luck, the unlikely duo accidentally trigger a rare ascension quest: to find the perpetrator of a dangerous, corrupt magic that could make all of humanity into an endangered species.

book one I am very glad to see yet another country joining in on the litrpg. I’ve read ones from Russia, America, China, and other Asian countries have even seen a couple from Australia.

Goodreads review by Tom on January 31, 2023

Good. Well written for the most part. Light on the emotional beats but there are some. I’d like it if the author included footnotes with translations of the Gaelic rather than putting the onus on the reader to google stuff as it rather breaks the flow of reading. The passion the author has for his cul......more
