Manifest Fantasy, Book One

A Military Isekai Adventure

De: S. C. Lee (A.K.A. DrDoritosMD)

Narrado por: Johnathan McClain

In a world of swords and magic, no one expects an AH-64 Apache Attack Helicopter.

Transferred to Area 51 to babysit a dusty relic, Captain Henry Donnager made peace with a career of raking sand and motor pool Mondays. But when a team of scientists unlocks a portal to the fantastical world of Gaerra, Henry is thrust into command of Alpha Team, an elite military unit tasked with exploration and diplomacy.

To gain local trust, they join the renowned Adventurers Guild. It turns out modern firepower handles fantasy monsters just fine–and the Guild doesn’t care how they kill the monster, only that it’s dead. Quest by quest, Alpha Team rises through ranks meant for wizards, all without a drop of magic to their name. Every victory pulls them closer to the secret at the heart of Gaerra: who built the gateway, and why?

But the more they succeed, the more eyes turn their way–and not all of them friendly. In a land where dragons loom and emperors scheme, Henry’s team discovers that modern warfare–Hellfire missiles included–holds its own brand of magic.

Experience the adrenaline of this new, action-filled Military Isekai, set in a progression-based fantasy world, where magic is grounded in realism, and modern technology shows its true might! Perfect for fans of GATE and Stargate SG-1.

Modern military vs Fantasy world

Sending a bunch of US military guys into a fantasy world is exactly what you would think. Crazy, fantastical, technical, and typical service member humor with that nice isekia pinch of flavor. I highly recommend it.
