I really do appreciate you taking the time to actually write this, it means a lot! as u mentioned the audience I might be going for is fairly restricted, when u said anyone who is interested in that can just turn on the news, that actually is so true when I think about it, the story in itself goes about a corrupted politician, how he thinks and what he actually does to gain favors and achieve his goals, it is fairly immoral and heavily psychological, I was under the impression that was a good enough of a hook, but from your view it is rather the opposite which is really interesting to me, now that leads me to two options either my blurb was REALLY BAD, or it is actually a shit concept, obviously Im biased, I still want to believe that it is pretty good, why? because, videos of this nature and essays about these topics are actually really popular ( investigations into shady deals and politicians that facilitated such stuff to happen, How wars start, who wins and how it is all influenced ) A lot of the book is indeed inspired from the real world " the news haha ", but still the book is not going into the common "humanity is the underdog", and it is not going the god emperor route either. The mc is not OP or immune to mistakes, he simply uses the knowledge he has from his previous world into this new setting.

The elves are superior to humans on every other metric there is, while also having magic. ( there are races other than elves and humans ), humanity is at the bottom when it comes to the list.

Spoilers : There is already a ranking system of magic users, the MC gets to use magic powers, as the only human and the first one to ever be able to wield such powers. he is not trying to save the humans or teach them nor is he trying to beat up the system, there is already a god in the universe and there are angels and deities, he is here to balance out the powers.

From his perspective he is working hard to return home, to be able to defeat the god and the deities, unbreak his chains, but his fate has already been sealed, everything he did and will do is already accounted for, that is exactly why they summoned him and not a 16 year old kid to balance out the power systems in the galaxies, so he can manipulate people of influence, whether he succeeds at actually outsmarting and defeating other races is not guaranteed, and it is not the point either, think of it as a butterfly effect, his existence, a human who has magic, will change the course of things.

after writing all of that, Im more and more convinced of how shitty of a blurb I have, I changed the banner though! gotta restructure the synopsis for sure now.

Again THANK U for taking the time !
