This is a unique take of the system/gamer genre where instead of a video game it uses an alien device to create the system/gamer interface. I really enjoy the mix of sci-fi and fantasy. The author spends a lot of time and detail explaining how magic works since this story is about a magical engineer the detail makes the story more enjoyable because you feel more connected to the events in the novel. The world building and the wide variety of characters give the novels world a lived in feeling. The main character is interesting I wish that the author would spend as much time fleshing out the MC relationship to his family and friends as the author does on magic theory and world building. I will give the author bonus points for injecting the novel with humor and making the novel a good light read when the novel could have been dense and dry. I recommend this novel to anyone who like fantasy with a sci-fi twist.
