Reading Journal Details
Book: Weaponized Magic by M.D. Massey & D. William Landsborough
Format Read: Audiobook (~3 hours, 30 minutes long)
My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3 of 5 stars)
Quick Take Review (TL;DR)
Weaponized Magic presents an intriguing origin story with a fresh take on the discovery of new powers, though its short length leaves the narrative feeling a little rushed. Tony Mendoza, the main character, frequently comes off as one-dimensional—a brute-like character lacking depth—which detracts from the overall impact of the story.
Full Review
Weaponized Magic offers an interesting origin story that draws you in from the ground level as the main character, Tony Mendoza, discovers his new role and powers in real-time. The concept of watching him figure things out on the fly was engaging, but the book's brevity made it feel rushed. While the narrative had a promising start, Mendoza's character comes off as little more than brawn—a "jar head" with little depth—which leaves me hoping for more nuanced development in future installments.
