Sacrifice Mage

By: Dawson George

Narrated by: Charlie West

Summoned. Sacrificed. But sent back to life with a star for a mana core.

Ross Moreland dearly wishes to spice up his dull life as a PA with something actually exciting. Like magic. His wish comes true when he gets summoned to another world. Then he gets ritually sacrificed.

Luckily, the banished sun god rejects it, sending him back to life with a starlike core, one that gathers a ton of mana to explode into being. Ross can't use up the mana fast enough to prevent a fatal detonation with regular spells. What he can do is Sacrifice it all away, in return for incredible rewards. First, he just needs to join the very cult that tried to kill him.

Convincing them that a declining cult needs a cultist with a star core is the easy part. If Ross wants to get a handle on his mana core, he'll have to navigate through evil nobles, fanatical vampires, and a sunless city that despises the weak. Good thing that it's Ross's turn to play with Sacrifice.

Interesting magic system

Interesting story, I would have like the magic system better explain (could be plot points). Narrator is a bit nasal but not bad. Pacing is a bit rushed will try the next book.

seems ok but I just can't get past the speech filter

MC can't understand natives but they used some weird voice thing so you can't make out anything but it very grating very quick

A great magic system, unique setting and great story telling

After the set up, the story and progression system really helps you dig into the world. I can honestly say I can't wait for the next book. The magic system itself is really open ended and invites you to think about it yourself and wonder what else is possible. again can't wait for more.
