Destiny has approached. A painful past is explored. School is in session.

Zack and Zara have survived their first brush with nobles at the Academy. An experience that has left them trapped, lost inside a portal they were forced to enter. If they can make it back, it will be their turn to make the rules and create some havoc.

Together they have grown stronger, pushing back against their past. Now they have something new: a friend. The portals, which gave them a way to fight back and to claim the life they always wanted, have done more than that. They brought them into the spotlight and made Zara a princess.

Everything is changing. Now they just have to survive what comes next.

Wow

Love this story been listening in the order that was suggested and now on to Game of Gods 5

not as good as the first

I loved the first book. This book doesn't seem to hold up nearly as well. the author seems to want the Main Characters to be in every major event no matter the cost or plot consistency. The author also seemed to start picking favorites in the characters. Zara get the ability to use magic to near limitless amounts not to mention it seems to be designed as a soulbound item and zack gets a short range high cost line of sight spell he only uses once in the whole book. in some other areas the naration tells us the situation then the person that was referenced says what they are thinking followed by another person agreeing and then stating the same thing back. best example. Girl kills someone for the first time. zack notes it. narrator notes it then she states that her training just took over and it just happened followed by her mom agreeing and stating yes that is why i trained you that way. was very jarring and seemed to pop up here and there. another thing is the focus on nerfing already nerfed characters. zack has the potential to be very broken and the author knows this. A mage able to make any spell he wills into existence with no other need or imput other than intent and mana. with only needing to put points into constitution because it doubles as his mana pool while every even level auto assigned stats into his class focusus. it has potential. but it isnt used. 90% of the book is them in a low mana world dealing with politics and kidnappings. he very rarely uses his spells and when he does he has at most 5 uses and then he doesnt do anything anymore. and when he is in a portal he doesnt use the obvious precious time to kill a few monsters. very little actual magic is done. also zack was planning on dueling spencer and the other nobles. spencer a few chapters later asked for a dual. zack refuses. zack still plans on challenging them tho. few more chapters pass. Spencer and all the nobles involved in the first place are then promptly expelled and forgotten about. the duel never happens. probably never will
