Publisher's summary

Is he dead....

...Is he just missing?

What are they hiding....

For fifteen-year-old Harrison Grady, the thought of knowing what happened to his father dominates his every thought. His father and his elite task force, The Silver Falcons, vanished one night thirteen years ago while on a top-secret mission. Under the decree of the Destine Elder, they may never be spoken of - even by Harrison’s family. An eerie silence…

...No one dares break it

The absence of his father and the silence about his disappearance morphs into anger, depression, and anxiety in Harrison’s life. This manifests distrust with the Destine nation and their leaders because Harrison knows that they must be hiding something. Now with the chance to follow in his father’s elusive footsteps, Harrison is accepted into the Destine Academy where he will study and train to be an elite Destine warrior. Without any warning, the mysterious Destine Elder has become the Headmaster of the Academy. With his newfound skills and band of friends, Harrison devises a plan to investigate the disappearance of his father.

Make those who have vowed silence talk.

But…just as Harrison begins his mission, unexpected truths take him on a journey where everything he’s ever known changes right before his eyes.

mediocre at best

this was a real struggle to finish and is poorly written, the author needs an editor badly or a better one. constantly switching perspectives mid paragraph, repeating the same information over and over again, sometimes in the same paragraph and facepalm worth bouts of convenient exposition dumps.

maybe the story could be decent if it was better written.

Great introduction into Ya Fantasy!

I do normally cut my teeth on some books that are a bit larger more complex and complicated, so I’m not picking up many Ya books these days! That being said I think that this story was interesting I loved the Dragon Ball inspiration expressing itself in the magic system! I do think I could have seen a couple slight plot holes getting the story going, and some of the characters still have yet to really express their individuality! But I think especially for a younger audience or even if you have love for some younger oriented stories like the original Dragon Ball, I think you will find this a fun and enjoyable read!

First audiobook I've listened to.

The beginning was a bit slow for me, but I couldn't stop listening when they got to school. One of the better books I've had lately. I'm very excited for the next one. Thank you TikTok for getting me to this book!

Good Listen

It was a little more middle school humor than I was expecting. I also would like more information on energy attacks and their effects and limitations.
