Publisher Description
"Don't be afraid to look into the eclipse!"
-Jee
Rune Hartsmund is on the verge of pitching the game of his life and making baseball history when there is an attempt on his life from somewhere behind the stadium lights. Miraculously, he is saved by a young boy who runs onto the field just before the bullet strikes home. He soon finds out that his savior, Jee, is a 600-year-old Japanese deity, reincarnated in the body of a 13-year-old Asian boy.
Reluctantly, he is drawn into a magical world where guns are called wands, bullets are curses and Magí use the lifeforce of humans to fuel their magic. Pulled between the loyalty of the only world he has ever known and the Other World that now lays claim to him, he struggles with the ethics of his newfound magical abilities.
Together with a rag-tag group of Paladín-Magí and The Alliance, Against, Dark, Arts & Arcane, Magics (A.A.D.A.A.M), he struggles to defend both worlds against the Necromancer, Nubilous. Rune uncovers that nothing was ever what it seemed and learns the malignant mysteries of the Bleudark.

A fresh take on the action/sci-if genre
I consider myself an action guy, but I want my action to have deep lore also and take you to new world. While there are many movies, books, and comics that have tired and some have succeeded few stick the landing. This story hit all the beats of a great action story with deep lore. From the modern take on the hero to the new world he is going to encountered it was hard to but this book down. Action scenes are vivid with sequences and moments that will stay with you long after you are done reading it. Same with the lore of the world, many fresh ideas are introduced on how the magic world works and operates. Highly recommend for any fan of the genre.
Urban fantasy at its best!
So, I am a sucker for good urban fantasy, and this knocked it out of the park for me. I loved the action and the world this author created. It drew me in and never let go. It is filled with all the great things I love in a great story, action, drama, sex violence, betrayal and best of all, magic! Can’t wait for the next installment. Great read!
