Prodigy Reborn: Wizard for Hire Origins • Book 1

By M.C. Lewis

Forty-year-old Alex Grant dies in a mundane car accident and awakens as Elias Voss, newborn in the magic-rich world of Mythralis. Retaining all his memories, he quickly realizes he possesses a legendary universal affinity-the rare ability to wield every school of magic without limit. As a child prodigy in a quiet village, Elias secretly masters the Weave, inventing a new art he calls Omnimancy. At twelve, his astonished parents send him to the legendary Arcane Academy of Aetherhold.

There, the once-ordinary man must navigate deadly rivalries, political intrigue, and the sinister Shadow Veil cult that seeks to harvest universal mages like him to tear open reality itself. With loyal friends Mira and Brom at his side, Elias survives ambushes, forbidden discoveries, and an all-out assault on the Academy itself. But the greatest challenge awaits at graduation: when every guild, noble house, and kingdom offers him power and glory, Elias makes a radical choice.

He walks away from fame to forge his own path... as a Wizard for Hire.

A heartfelt coming-of-age isekai, Prodigy Reborn blends wonder, friendship, and high-stakes magical progression into the origin story of a reluctant hero who refuses to be anyone's weapon.
