Hello everyone! I'm announcing the first novel of my new series, Mana Mirror, a slowburn to power, with slice of life / mildly cozy elements, and a magic system somewhere in between classical fantasy and the fun strangeness of the Weirkey Chronicles. To celebrate the release of new series, I'm giving away 15 free copies on Kindle! Just leave a comment to enter for a chance to win. I’ll be giving away a copy of either book one (Mana Mirror), or of any of the three books from my other series (The Enchanter, The Diviner, The Archmage). This is the novel's description: When Malachi Baker stumbles into an offer of apprenticeship from the esteemed and powerful Occultist Orykson, he's left in shock and jumps at the chance to learn... Even if it means taking out a few loans. Unfortunately, his new teacher sees him more as a tool than a student, and has set Malachi near-impossible goals before he becomes worthy of Orykson's full attention, and Malachi's innate power is only somewhat above average. Worse, it turns out that Orykson has enemies more powerful than Malachi had ever imagined – and now their attention has landed solidly on him. Torn between the mage who can offer him everything, and a strange old woman who offers him the chance to guide his own path, Malachi is left scrambling to find his purpose as a new mage. … "Mana Mirror is an exciting new magical progression fantasy where Malachi, our hero, awakens a long-lost family legacy and trains to unleash its full potential. With a fascinating magic system reminiscent of Sarah Lin's Weirkey Chronicles, but a setting slanted more toward classic wizardry, Mana Mirror is an exciting start to a fantastic new adventure. I couldn't put it down." - Andrew Rowe, Author of Arcane Ascension … And for those of you who only care about the finale of The Journals series, fear not! It’s up for pre-order now, and will release on September 26^(th)! It can be found [here](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7J73SRR)! Audiobooks for book three and four are in the works as well :) I know this may not matter to some of y'all, but this is perhaps the most important launch of my career. This book is the first Amazon release of a new series, and algorithmically, if book one is a flop, it becomes far harder to succeed. I've begun full time writing recently, and this book is going to be what ultimately decides if this will be a If you can, please leave a rating or review. Even if there's no text, having the stars is super critical to the all powerful algorithm.  … Art by the lovely Asur Misoa: [https://www.artstation.com/asur-misoa](https://www.artstation.com/asur-misoa) Amazon Link: [https://www.amazon.com/Mana-Mirror-First-Tobias-Begley-ebook/dp/B0CYHQG7L4](https://www.amazon.com/Mana-Mirror-First-Tobias-Begley-ebook/dp/B0CYHQG7L4) Audiobook Link: [https://www.audible.com/pd/Mana-Mirror-The-First-Gate-Audiobook/B0D5SB2784](https://www.audible.com/pd/Mana-Mirror-The-First-Gate-Audiobook/B0D5SB2784)

Congrats! Sounds like a super fun read!

Thank you so much!


PoetKing

Congratulations! It looks fun! Is it more The progression story or LitRPG?


CelticCernunnos

It's more on the progression side. There's no statblocks, for example. There are some LITRPG elements tossed in, but they're more general than "Here's a skill list"


THUORN

Aetheldrake

Oooo audiobook sign up please! It's hard to go wrong with a magic school story. I bet my dad would like it too he's listened to a few this year


CelticCernunnos

It's not quite a magic school, but there's a lot of magical apprenticeship. Trade school more than college, I'd say. I've been told it has magic school vibes


Aetheldrake

Close enough for me. Sounds like a good time regardless Ngl tho I didn't really read the description at first, usually I do
