Mage Mangler

OH BROTHER . . .

Adam Henshaw joined the army to bury his past and put his talent for violence to better use. He wanted a fresh start; he got a massacre. When monstrous warriors tear through a portal and drag the survivors into a realm of powerful magic and brutal politics, Adam is forced to adapt or die. To find a path home, he must master that magic and turn it against his captors.

TRAIN. GROW. ASCEND.

Through fast fists, raw determination, and a little luck, he earns a place at a Warrior Mage academy. But while Adam learns the rules of the Union, his past refuses to stay buried.

A VIOLENT CRIMINAL. A WILD CARD. A PSYCHOPATH.

Earl Henshaw is disposable. He's also Adam's brother, which makes him the perfect choice to send through the portal in pursuit. But for Earl, there is no magical academy waiting for him on the other side. There is only blood and dust in the roaring arenas of the Union. The cosmos is vast, but it isn't big enough to hold both of them.

meh

earl is a true psychopath and well written as such. but he's exhaustingly 1 dimensional. if he was a side character, it would be fine but having to deal with multiple chapters in a row from his POV is too much.
