About this listen

On the anniversary of his father’s passing, Jon leaves home in search of answers. The land is full of mystery and intrigue, and Jon wants to explore it all with the dream of one day becoming a sorcerer. But when Jon receives an invite to the castle for training, he starts to believe there has to be a catch.

A long time ago, Jon’s father was once a guard near the capital city. Now Jon finds himself back where his father used to work, and he’s beginning to learn why his father had wanted to raise him away from here. He will discover that, along with certain threats to the kingdom, there are also many magical arts to learn. Some seem stronger than others, but all have their use. Jon must come to understand the complexities of sorcery as he uncovers the mysteries and threats to the kingdom. But he also must learn to deal with the other sorcerers who have come to train at the castle at the same time as him...some of whom are hard to trust.

I like the author's character centric writing style. This is the second book of his I've read recently and liked both the styles very well, this one being a bit faster paced with the plot and detailing out the magic to a greater degree. There were a few minor plot hiccups that I just didn't understand, but really they were not important. Overall great story, 4.5 stars and will be looking to continue the series.

Interesting story with detailed magic system

This particular epic fantasy has everything, great world building with a subtle magic system. For a quick read it is beautifully written with a relatable hero who has several quote worthy passages. This book is a must read/listen, usually I recommend read but the narrator (Simon Vance) is excellent.

Parents: besides mild language and some gore due to battle this is a fairly clean read
Language: mild to moderate with a handful of crass terms; no Fbombs
Violence: pg-13
Sexual content: G; flirtation and a shirtless guy

The story is a fun take on magic with constant adventure and action. The tale itself is fast paced enough that you won’t believe it when you hear “this has been book one…” You’ll be left pining for the next book if you enjoy unique magical tales. The description is well thought out so I see no need to add to that regard. Just read this one, you won’t regret it!

The narrator has good differentiations, pace, and was fun to listen to.

Fun unique approach to magic

First time listening to this author. I am going to listen to the rest of the books because I really enjoyed this one. The start of a very good story that I think has real possibilities.

Very enjoyable

I enjoyed this story. The protagonist is likeable and virtuous. None of the tortured gray area that so many stories go for nowadays. He is a bit overpowered at times, but his backstory and character make it believable. He is not some unstoppable force.

The magic system is interesting. It is kind of based on music with a mixture of elements and world lore to drive it. I would have loved more detail in this area.

The world exists and affects the story. It is interesting and mysterious. World knowledge is limited by the protagonist being sheltered. More world background would have made the story better. The main character seems like he should know more.

Good story. Interesting magic system.

Really enjoyed this one!

A B.T. Narrow audiobook was my choice for 4 hospital 3 hour minimum mileage drives. With the follow-up surgery in 4 days, I am going back to see if there is another adventure by same author and hopefully the same excellent narrator, Simon Vance. If this is a series with similar settings and some of the same great characters.

Excellent Audio Adventure
