Portal Fantasy:

An epic fantasy series seen through the lens of a modern college student from Earth plunged into an adventure on a high-magic fantasy world. Forced to adapt and survive, he will need to dodge the mages and soldiers of a nation dedicated to the service of evil gods while trying to uncover the mystery of how and why he was kidnapped to this world.

What makes it Unique: The Setting

Strong, detailed worldbuilding: Set in a unique world of swords and magic. Greymantle goes beyond the concept of 'high-magic' fantasy world. Fantasy in flavor but more advanced than modern Earth in some respects. Greymantle is a world in which technology and science never existed, yet cities are cleaner, banking is done with the magical bank tokens, floating carts are used to haul freight, and magic is a science in its own right.
