  • I only remember the authors of recurring series that I liked enough to keep reading. I only recognize authors of series with 2-3 volumes if they have another long-running series from which I know the name. Or if the name stands out somehow. For example, I’m currently reading Min-Maxing My TRPG Build and I know the author’s name not only because it’s a long-running series that I like but also because he uses a German word as his handle. Stuff like that. On the flip side, I have problems remembering the names of authors that have a generic Japanese-sounding name. That’s how I almost walked into the trap of reading Dimension Wave even though it’s from the Shield Hero writer.






  • Wim Strauss isn’t a flashy fighter—he’s a granting caster, a support mage who boosts his allies’ strength in battle. His magic keeps the party alive. But when his quiet power starts to overshadow the wrong person, the team’s prideful leader has him unceremoniously kicked out.

    Enter his slightly clingy childhood friend Heidemarie, now a member of Nachtlibelle, a renowned A-rank guild counted among the strongest in the land. She offers Wim a chance to join her team—a fresh start among allies who actually value his skills. His magic may not dazzle, but with the right party behind him, he just might prove that the back line was never where he truly belonged.

    This is the synopsis of “Book: Magical Buffs: The Support Caster is Stronger Than He Realized!” and I’m already so tired of it after reading just this. Why are publishers always picking up the same stuff they have already 20 times?
