Description

On January 20th, 2020, an explosion rocked the International School in Seattle, Washington. That explosion brought magic to the world, spreading across the globe in what would come to be called the Awakening. All around the world, people began to develop magic powers, some of them even turning into creatures of myth like elves and dwarves.

With magic came monsters, and other threats to the world. Some of those who had power took up the call, and became adventurers or heroes, fighing back the monsters. Others let their newfound powers go to their heads, becoming villains. Many turned their powers to crafting, and melding magic and technology. And a few began delving into the secrets of magic for knowledge's sake alone.

But the blast that kickstarted the Awakening did more than just bring magic to the world. Twenty students, all in the same class, disappeared that day. No trace of their remains was ever found, and no one else in the building was so much as injured. People began calling them the Lost Sleepers, twenty souls who would never Awaken like the rest of the world had.

Forty years after the Awakening, one of them returned.

    It is quite early in the story, but so far it has been quite a clihé story of an OP necromancer that still has the mentality of a young human. Although I suppose the fact she didn't hide her powers or nature is moderately surprising.
    Other reviews have touched upon it's ridiculous politics, but that was just two paragraphs in ten chapters and is easily overlooked.  I found I had more trouble looking past the slightly unnatural dialogues and character reactions.
    The world and characters may not be top-tier, but the author has clearly put some thoughts on the magic system, beyond "I use mana to make spells''. what I have read so far was very interesting, although slightly info-dumpy. Magic world-building happens to be my favorite part of fantasy novels, so I will tentatively rate this novel 4 stars and wait for more chapters to get a clearer picture.
