Avery, a graduate student of magic, makes a Very Big Mistake and has to correct it and save a world. Except he‘s just a graduate student and not really cut out to save the world. Throw in tongue in cheek humor and riffing on tropes familiar to those who play role playing games like DnD, and you‘ve got a fast and surprisingly delightful read full of adventure (maybe misadventure would be more appropriate) and nods to fantasy literature.
