Shamrock Samurai [Urban Fantasy | Luck Magic | Celtic Monster Hunting]
Community Rating
Description
How many shotgun blasts are needed to kill a Banshee?
Sean’s a martial arts enthusiast who just discovered his Luck magic.
Will his new powers be enough to combat the slew of celtic monsters that cropped up to terrorize his city?
He’ll unload a whole barrel of Luck on these paranormal pests, cruising in his ‘69 Fastback, slaying shades after dark.
You’ll ride shotgun with Sean as he battles Banshees, clashes with Leprechauns, strives against Vampires, and defends his own against Celtic Demigods.
There’s plenty of magic sword fights, shots fired, car chases, fisticuffs, and portal hopping while adventuring between the Bay Area and the mythical realm of Irish legend, Tir na nOg!

I'm happy to offer thisCOMPLETE SAGA (6 arcs)herePERMAFREE(never in Kindle Unlimited).
Imagine the intense action of JOHN WICK + the swords-n-guns slaying of DEVIL MAY CRY, and that had a baby with CELTIC MYTHOLOGY and some PORTAL HOPPING, add a pinch of INUYASHA's horrific monsters, a smattering ofYUYU HAKUSHO angst, andthat's Shamrock Samurai.*Contains portal hopping as a major element in each arc, but this storyIS NOT Isekai(nothing against it personally. Want to make sure you know what you're getting into).
Enjoy, and good luck ☘️!

- Alpha ZergRoyal Road★★ 2.0Every time you think the MC will make a smart choice, he doesn't. Every time you hope for him to actually man up and be a hero, he gets carried through by new expressions of his power ala shonen protagonist, and if that doesn't happen, he gets bailed out in the nick of time by someone who just happens to be there. He has magic, but gets killed by normals because even though he knows they're dangerous, he doesn't go in prepared or even expecting a fight. Except wait, he doesn't get killed because his powers once again pull through while he's fading to black... through no actual virtue of his own. How many more clichés do you want?
Never mind the fact that he's a terrible brother, doesn't bother to actually practice his magical powers after 50 chapters, and coasts along through sheer dumb luck.
I'm giving this 2 stars because hell, it's actually written quite well, but the main character is so incompetent that I really can't bring myself to consider the story in anything but disgust. If that's what the author was going for when they were writing the character, then they succeeded, but yeah. If you like a character who gets bailed out by their powers all the time, does no research about creatures that they're facing, is a very bad brother and son, gets the solutions to his problems spoonfed to him rather than figure them out himself, and can't string two words together when asked to explain something, this is your story.
Personally, I hate those things. The fact that he succeeds in spite of his own self-sabotage at every corner annoys me even more.
Positives: The world is great, and the story is well written.
Negatives: The plot armour surrounding an incompetent protagonist with a terrible attitude, too much unfounded pride, and somehow a sky-high awkwardness at the same time is unbearable and, for me, unreadable. - Cody37Royal Road★★ 2.0Read to chapter 8 and was ok but seemed to suddenly change or something and not fit properly with what came before... was still an ok read but could of been much better ill try keep with for few more chapters at least and may change review slightly.
The 50 word count is really annoying at times....
