About this listen
A Marine major is one of the orphan ranks, too senior to command a line company, but too junior to command a battalion.
Newly promoted to major, Ryck reports for duty as the assistant naval attaché to the Confederation of Free States, the same government whose troops he’d recently fought in the Telchines. Ryck wasn’t happy about the assignment, but he buckled down for a long and boring tour of duty.
But action seems to follow Ryck, and this is no exception.
From the diplomatic post on New Mumbai to leading one of the newly formed Raider special ops companies, Ryck continues his eventful career as a United Federation Marine.

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!

With no way out of the village on his own, he had always held onto the hope that one day his magic would awaken and give him access to his spheres.

It Keeps Getting Better and Better
The beginning of the series was good and I was hoping that I would get used to the narrator and the story, and not only has it gotten better, it's just an awesome, well-written, beautiful story that you just want to go on and on. I haven't read a series like this
In a long time, it's a little Gem!!!! and I'll be listening to it over and over again like you do any good book series.
I can't recommend it enough.
I'm anxiously awaiting the next book.
