Publisher's Summary

Experience the first official adventure in Magic: The Gathering’s multiverse in nearly a decade as the ultimate battle begins on Ravnica.

Teyo Verada wants nothing more than to be a shieldmage, wielding arcane energies to protect his people from his world’s vicious diamondstorms. When he’s buried alive in the aftermath of his first real tempest, the young mage’s life is about to end before it can truly begin - until it doesn’t. In a flash, a power he didn’t know he had whisks him away from his home, to a world of stone, glass, and wonder: Ravnica. Teyo is a Planeswalker, one of many to be called to the world-spanning city - all lured by Nicol Bolas, the Elder Dragon. Bolas lays siege to the city of Ravnica, hungry for the ultimate prize: godhood itself. His unparalleled magic and unstoppable army appear poised to bring the city to utter ruin.

Among those who stand in the way of Bolas’s terrifying machinations are the Gatewatch, Planeswalkers sworn to defeat evil, no matter where it’s found. But as they work to unite the other mages and mount a defense of the city and its people, the terrifying truth of Bolas’s plan becomes clear. The Elder Dragon has prepared a trap to ensnare the most powerful mages from across the Multiverse - and it’s too late to escape.

As forces great and small converge on the city and the battle rages, the stakes could not be higher. If the Gatewatch falters and the Planeswalkers fail, the curtain will fall on the age of heroes - and rise on the infinite reign of Nicol Bolas.

Good if you love MTG, but a bad place to start.

This is Avengers End Game, but with Planeswalkers.

If you already know most the big characters in Magic from Dominaria to Guilds of Ravnica and want to see them in an Endgame style cross over event, this is well executed.

The voice work is good and we get to see all the big names doing there thing in well imagined set peice battles.

However, if you don't already know these characters it is likely to come off as a cheesy Saturday Morning Cartoon.

Personally, I would have liked a smaller scope with a more manageable roster of characters and more time spent exploring Ravnica.

Ravnica is Magic's Magnum Opus of world building, but we don't really get to spend any time with the city as we are rushed from planeswalker to planeswalker.

narration is monotone and bored

what I hoped would be an interesting dive into characters I enjoy is a bland fantasy novel that choked down a thesaurus, which would not be a problem if it was read by someone remotely interested in being entertaining.
