What if the only way to survive the world's most elite magic academy was to have no magic at all? Killian Thorne, a slum-bred brawler with zero aptitude, bluffs his way past wards and wizards using sheer brute force—until a vengeful noble uncovers his secret and turns it into a weapon. With archmages closing in and a tournament that demands sorcery he can't wield, one wrong move means spectral prison or worse: exposure as the fraud who could shatter the magical world.
