About this listen
From exiled prince to knight to hero of the realm.
Nox’s time at Woodson University didn’t just come with progress in academia, artisanry, and magic. He’s swiftly grown into one of the richest people in the city and holds political influence. The rapid developments haven’t gone unnoticed, and not all attention is positive.
Business is booming. Nox is in a healthy relationship. His academic accolades are adding up. And familial tears are in the mending process. But he can feel something big is coming to ruin everything. Nox’s friends and family call it paranoia, but he disagrees and his preparations don't feel swift enough.
They’re wrong. He’s right.
The Cabal knows of Knight Nox Ratra. They won’t rest until they have him.
Continue on Nox's journey from Novice to Archmage in Book 3 of this Arcane Academy LitRPG series from J Pal, bestselling author of The Houndsman and They Called Me Mad.
It features a unique magic system which involves cultivating a solar system in one's core, Detailed spell crafting and alchemy, Dungeon diving, arcane archery, a magic university setting and so much more.

Fortunately, for him Woodson University and their scouts are always seeking individuals with his work ethic.

Story
Mark’s new life begins in the worst possible place—a burned-out village haunted by undead. Each morning these ravenous creatures disappear, only to return at night, driven by a relentless hunger. He'll need to stay low and think quick, because trapped and alone in the body of a child, he can’t level up in this new world. At least not yet. Soon Mark will learn that even among the living, safety isn’t guaranteed. When the small town that he ends up in turns out to be at the center of a conspiracy that threatens the world, he'll need to uncover the truth before it's too late.

I had lain down in my crypt to rest for a few decades, but when I awoke, centuries had passed. My castle is in ruins, my clan is gone, and necromancers are considered just a fairy tale for children. They take me for a healer. That's because the world is sick. And it's time for strong medicine.

Story
I used to be the greatest Earth Mage in my world. The head of the entire Order of Architects. But the older you get, the more you come to realize that at some point, you need to retire, so that you can have the chance to enjoy a peaceful life and to cede your place to the young, some of whom have already turned two thousand years old . . .So that's what I did. But I failed to account for one thing: during the course of my long life, I'd accumulated too many enemies, and they had decided to spoil my retirement. So they died along with me. And I hope their deaths were final. But mine was not!

Bernt might have graduated from the Mage Academy, but not everyone has the money or connections to launch a prestigious career as a mage. Bernt finds himself working in the city sewers as an Underkeeper among the other rejects of Halfbridge's magery. He may spend more time unclogging pipes than fighting monsters, but hey, it's a stable job, and that's what counts. With the help of his unregistered soul-devouring demonic familiar, he'll save enough to launch his career as an adventurer—just as soon as he can afford some proper gear.

For the powerless, desire is a curse. Since he was a child, Helbram had only one wish: adventure. It was this dream that pushed him from the comforts of his village, determined to leave his mark in story and song. Reality, however, is cruel. Years of failure have smothered the flames of ambition, leaving embers wrapped in a shell of rusted plate and weathered mail. Some call him knight, but he knows it to be a false title. One he knew would never be true. Yet still, Helbram walked, his feet carrying him into a land removed from those blessed by the gods, those guided by fate to greatness.

Humans have been pushed to the brink of extinction by an ever-evolving demonic threat.

Quest Academy stands defiantly against them as a place to train the next generation of Heroes. The Guild Association is holding the line but is in dire need of new blood and the powerful abilities they could bring to the battlefront. To be the saviors that humanity needs, they need to surpass the limits of those that came before them.

“Yes, I admit, I should have told him earlier,” lamented Wizard Apprentice Talash as Sentinel Ruben stared at him. “I just don’t know what to do now that the Portcullis has been opened.” What to do. Yes, that was the million-dollar question. Warning the citizens about the hordes of criminals, crazies and creatures flooding into Mokiem from the Land of Outcasts would be the first action; repairing and sealing the Portcullis would be the second; and rescuing Wizard Szczurik from whatever hellish place the changeling had teleported him would be the third.

Great story, but poorly depicted human relations
The story and progression of the MC are well done, but I'm a bit turned off by the way characters interact with each other. There's little humor or happiness depicted and characters tend to react with unnecessary belligerence towards friends. There are also conversations that real people would never have, such as the one between the MC and Joey about how they really weren't friends. That was painful to listen to. In general the author needs to learn how real people talk; we don't use words like "perish", for instance.

Interesting world, good plot, terrible characters
This is a weird one for me, I really like the world, magic system and the plot progression - but I think I'm done after this book... The authors choice to remove all the most interesting characters we got to know over the 2 books is absolutely baffling.
Lillan and Nox's relationship was the only real interaction outaide his family conflicts that had any real weight. Can't understand the thought process that led to not including her in this book.
Aria is about as 1 dimensional as it gets and their "love" is fully a plot device. The relationship with Annabelle wasn't great but it at least felt a bit earned with all they went through. Painful to listen to something this shallow
Michelle and Earnest were interesting characters with a compelling backstory that mirrored Nox and Lillan. What do we get? Kill Earnest off screen and Michelle just leaves...
Then after his mentor dies (another solid character), her old friend shows up and offers to recruit him in the most blatant 'this character is evil' set-up you can imagine.
Overall IMO, this was a huge step down in writing for the 3rd installment, such a shame, but I've lost most of my interest in the story's future.
