Narrado por: Sierra Kline

Card Mage: Omnibus is books 1 through 3 of the Card Mage series. We follow the adventures of Dax, a mage in training, as he and his friends endure the rigorous trials of an academy dedicated to creating champions. An epic fantasy tale of friendship, trials, new magic, and averting a second apocalypse.

Card Mage: Academy Rebels

Dax has dreamed of becoming a mage and joining the Kinarth Academy of Champions. When he is accepted, he believes he has what it takes to be one of the best among a new wave of heroic champions.

The one thing he didn't know about himself was his slow spell casting ability.

Ridiculed by his fellow champions, the new mage sees that he may not have what it takes to become a true champion. With the threat of losing his chance to further learn at the academy, Dax will discover a new kind of magic, one that will change the academy forever.

Card Mage: Phantom Campaign

Dax enters his second year of the famed Kinarth Academy. The mage soon begins to realize it takes more than magical abilities to be a true champion.

Dark secrets from his past begin to haunt him and his friends as he tries to wrestle with his studies and his new mystical card technique. The demands only escalate as many of the academy's faculty hint at an exam that is far more dangerous than anything the mage and his friends have experienced before, passing or failing depending on their very survival.

Monsters, undead and shadowy enemies are just the beginning as something sinister pushes Dax and the Academy to the brink of collapse.

Card Mage: Silent Society

After the harrowing events of their previous year, Dax and his fellow students spend their summer trying to relax before returning for their third and final year at the Kinarth Academy of Champions. But, all is not as it seems. A creeping dread follows the mage and his friends as they try to return to a normal life. Dax finds himself trying to reconcile his card magic technique with the changing face and future of his world, while an unknown hunger tugs on his very sanity.

Returning to the Academy, Dax and his friends must endure their final exam. A champion trial where students must pass in order to graduate. It is whispered among many students, the champion trial is a life or death exam and not everyone returns from it, mentally or physically.

Card Mage: Academy Rebels is for mature listeners, 18 and up.

Good story, awesome narrator.

The story is well done with the a mage at a school coming up with a new way to cast spells. Makes for a fun story with seeing the way the students handle the school challenges. I'm not usually a fan of the school style stories but it is well done without slowing down the story. I am a fan of the author and got this audio as a code from them. Pirate Elves for life haha

loved it!

losing skullcut broke me, but the books were phenominal! I've read a few books by eden redd and they are all damn good stories!

Great Story

Loved it. A great story, characters well written. Good mix of sexy time and plot. Would recommend to everyone.

wonderfully done

This is one of the best series in the genre for me I've read and listened multiple times through and still can't get enough.

Loved it

first off I love the magic system and the story, I find the relationships to be pretty good and their interactions to be relatable its too bad the series ended here I would love more ❤️ ♥️

Grows on You

There were things I liked about this trilogy and things I didn’t.

I liked that the hero doesn’t get every female even if he does get more than his fair share. I like the way that the races and cultures changed after a catastrophic war. And the pace of the story didn’t get bogged down in details of the school year.

What I didn’t like was that the hero goes from being a weak-willed submissive to an iron-willed champion in about four pages. I also find that the magical academy setting has been overdone. The book would read like a teen drama if it weren’t for the explicit scenes - and there are a lot of them. But by the end of book 3, the story had come together well enough to be really good once you forget the rocky start in book 1.

The narrator does an incredible job with all the characters except one. From the pixie barbarian to the dragon, and all the races in between, she makes each one feel unique and emotive. You can hear the emotion in voices even through the distraction of unique accents. And I didn’t notice any of the voices getting mixed up. Unfortunately, the one voice that she could not do was the main character. The main character comes across as horribly non-emotional. It is like he is high for the entire series. Not quite a monotone, but very close. Combined with his rocky character development in book 1 and I almost stopped reading before the story got started.

Overall, if you like the genre, it is not a bad read. I understand that this is one of the author’s early novels, and I have read some of her short stories, so I will be trying a few more of her series. I expect her to become quite good at her craft.

Good but…

It’s good but when women write mail characters they tend to make them overly emotional instead of rational. The main character is too emotional. How do you go from tough survivor to overly emotional idealist just because of sex. Men don’t think that way.
