About this ebook

HE'S MORE THAN HE APPEARS...

Anthony Amasius likes to pretend he’s nothing but a simple college student attending the Institution of Magical Sciences on Academy Island. The truth is that he’s far from simple. Anthony is the only incubus in the entire world, though he refuses to bond with any woman. Right now his only goal in life is honoring the woman he loved and lost and bringing his younger brother out of a coma.

But when a War Maiden from Custodes Daemonium comes knocking on his door with orders to kill him, Anthony will find himself being forced to make a choice: Embrace what he’s become or die a dog’s death.

Ratings and reviews

It’s easy to see the influence of the classic tropes in this starter volume introducing to the world, I would say with the clearest connection being Strike the Blood, in a good way (other than No little sister characters! The horror! ;)) What will be interesting to see as the series develops, And seriously comes into its own. There’s a lot of potential to build on here, and seeing some of Brandon’s other series, there’s a good chance it’ll turn into something special.

A magical sci-fi story in the vein of something like Strike the Blood or Magical Index/Scientific Railgun, this first volume is quite interesting, fun and Very sexy. (in fact, if you want the "full experience" of the sex scenes, you should definitely check out the audiobook; the female narrator is incredibly talented in that regard;) The characters are interesting and funny and the story is compelling with just enough twists and turns to want to read more. If I had to offer one minor complaint, occasionally, some of the magic systems and lore are either given too much explanation or repeated explanation. Excellent first volume; can't wait to read more.

Great start, feels like a huge mystery, but it's written so well you just can't stop. I gotta know what happens next!
