Acerca de esta escucha

Every mage wants to be an adventurer . . . if they can afford it.

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.

When a dungeon unexpectedly opens beneath Halfbridge, it's the golden opportunity he's been looking for to get ahead. But when a simple dungeon raid goes wrong, Bernt finds himself on the front lines of a battle against an ancient foe. To survive, he'll need to master everything at his disposal, from his pyromancy to the growing bond with his demonic familiar.

For most, waging a war in the sewers is a nightmare.

For Bernt, it's just another workday.

The story is well fleshed out and the plot really kept my attention. I do want to mention that it doesn't end up in any expected direction and that had me pleasantly surprised. Looking forward to listening to what comes next. Excellent narration as always by Daniel Thomas May.

Great story and premise.

This story has some good pacing to it. Good storyline, it's just the ending you were left. Questioning, is this a series? I want to keep listening to it wasn't insular. As it should have been, it should have given more. I bought the main character to help get us ready for the next story. That really didn't happen. Everyone else we got something to help with the next chapter. Especially the enemy, but we're not rather getting that west. The main characters.
The ending felt more like it was the metal of a story, not the ending

Great pacing problematic ending

Really enjoyed the story. The MC is not OP and most interactions feel natural. I do wish he went into more details of the background of some of the characters but you can assume most of them. The poverty angle is played really well as is the discrimination between groups.

Really good start to this series.

The narrator is ok. he mixes up voices on occasion and his female voices are not good. What bothered me most was his narrator voice. It is the voice you hear most often and get really annoying especially when he enunciates every sound in a word rather than speaking naturally as he does when he is voicing the characters.

Great Story

Our MC is likeable, but not over-powered or apparently special in any way, other than having befriended a young demon. The story is basically an adventure story, not a progression fantasy, and our protagonist only gets slightly more powerful by the end of the book, although there is a foreshadowing of a more radical path he might take in the future.

Some reviews complain about the ending, but it's not really that odd. Yes, the author could have brought this story to a close a little more smoothly, but I don't think I would have noticed any awkwardness if others hadn't remarked on it. I look forward to the next book.

Well-written, well-narrated

This was interesting, the main character is stupid, but the story and side characters carries the story on. interesting world building going on too. Decent story for older young adults I think

Bernts a moron

Despite the main character having a street savvy born of being orphaned at a young age, and having the talent to get scouted by the mage academy, he displays NONE of the intelligence associated with that backstory.

Despite his desire to be an adventurer, he remains willfully ignorant about everything related to the occupation, as well as ignorant to methods for his personal advancement, knowledge of familiar bonds, demons. Even as the book is ending he still acts like he has no idea why people are nervous about his demon, despite all the explanations we’ve been given through the book.

The saving grace of the book is actually the supporting cast of characters. They’re intelligent, noble, gracious, generous, despite the MC lacking any common sense

The worst sin to me is the lack of advancement through this book. For a would be adventurer mage, there’s no excuse for him to have learned not even a single new combat spell

The Main Character is a Dolt
