The Six Guns
After an incident called the Naris Catastrophe, the world was brought down to it's knees. With humanity on the verge of extinction, a hero rose up and stopped the beast named Naris in it's tracks. Though the hero was successful in stopping the beast, the whole world suffered extreme damage. Shortly after the beast fell, the hero whom defeated the beast vanished. However, a new found source of energy called Endoindustria seeped into the world during the catastrophe. With this energy, humans began to wield magic and use this energy to replace modern guns and explosives. It took over a century to rebuild the world and become stable again, but with the help of the newfound "Endo"; as it's popularly known; humanity rebuilt society and progressed science.
Now, the year is 2190. A group of outlaws called The Six Guns stand between the world and a tyrannical reign of the Mages Guild. A group known to be the strongest magic users in the world whom lead the government of a newly developed country called Omnia. With a man named Siran at the head, and all of the history lost between the Naris Catastrophe and the rebuilding process; who is really the bad guy?
I like this kind of fresh novel that takes a different twist on things. Another approach that isn't a system novel or another world novel! Though there are some jumps here or there between perspectives (that's mainly a personal gripe of mine) There aren't any major flaws in the story. I would give it a try definitely and with a bit of polishing, it could grow into the next big thing!
Is this the second greatest book, next to Wear? I dunno. But what i do know is that its stupid to raise billions of dollars to build a wall.
As some of the others had said, there is some need for make-up here and there. But it doesn't mean this is a bad story. The story is great, I followed it up to the end from the time it was around the beginning. I must say that I anxiously awaited the updates while it was ongoing. Leo, keep the good stuff rolling. But next time don't be to nice with the end. Kill some people of it's not that bad. 😉😉 I'm waiting for your next work, so I could indulge in it like a good reader should.
The premise itself is fairly intriguing. A world where magic sprang into being roughly around the new millennium. A mysterious being known as Naris who everyone fears. A government that rules through terror and fear. And a group of people who will oppose them at all costs. The pacing however, feels off. The narrator jumps between past and present tense. And none of the characters are truly introduced beyond their introduction chapters. With a little editing this story can definitely be great though.
