Maybe I gave up early and I didn't reach the good parts but the story was exceptionally dry to me and I don't have the patience currently to wade through world building that doesn't do anything for me.

 I'm gonna be totally honest here. I thought this was going to be beyond ridiculous and just a fun little read that I laugh about later. Instead I am now all hot and bothered and invested in these characters.

Now, okay, so, it is a little bit ridiculous. But, in a way that doesn't detract from the story and all the sexiness. And ooooh boy was there a lot of sexiness. I cannot articulate how I feel about the sex scenes in this book. If you like a kinky (and magical) good time with a surprising amount of emotion then I suggest picking this up right now!

Dominai is a forest guide that has been injured and seeks magical training after a recommendation from a woman he helped through the woods. A VERY kinky training in several kinds of magic and he finds clues about the whereabouts of kidnapped wizards. They're held captive and adapted to cast magic against their will by mages ousted by the Crux. Dom and friends save them, he gains his first mastery and is well rewarded with a gangbang.
