Kazuo Ishiguro New Critical Visions Of The

If a child is born with a godlike command of magic, they are no longer human. Caspian Dawson has the innate ability to see the metaphysical forces behind magic and understands the craft like no one else, which is both a blessing and a curse. A blessing, because Caspian is the most powerful magician on Earth. A curse, because his power has isolated him from humanity since he was a child. In a world where magic is an arcane science, the remnant of the Kingdom of Britannia struggles to maintain its place on the global stage. And if that wasn't enough, the squabbling noble houses with high magical capacity threaten to tear the nation apart from within. Now, with the kingdom embroiled in a global cold war, graduate student Caspian Dawson is finally ready to flex his wings and show the world what he can do. Slow-burn, character-focused magic realism.

Ascension is a path walked by few. It is a journey that involves surpassing human limitations to achieve otherworldly power. This power stems from three core aspects: the Vessel, the Soul, and the Conscious Mind. Those who walk the path of Ascension come from all walks of life. Sandro, an orphaned artist who resided in a remote village; Alexander, an elite raised in High Society; and Curie, a genius with an ordinary upbringing—all embark on the path for their own reasons. Like others before them, their motivations vary: to hone one's craft, to seek freedom, or to transcend their own limitations. The previous era has come and gone. New factions rise with their own ideas of how the path should be walked, and in this modern age. The new Ascended will walk the path and face whatever it may hold.

Only when the voice of...something... breaks him out of the monotonous life of the white room, he realises the problems he will have to face just to survive. Note - First few chapters are slow, monotonous and downright terrible, I mean, just going back and looking at chapter three has me cringing. My writing gets better as the story goes on, but it still has a few info dumps. The first few chapter are the shortest by far, like chapter 30 is the same length as 1, 2 and part of ch 3 combined. Honestly, you can just skim the first five and then maybe read it a little more in depth. Thanks, and please, go easy on the first chapters, I already hate them. Schedule is new chapter every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday.
