Story
In a former life, Jack was gifted, meaning he possessed peculiar abilities. If rich folks found themselves in a jam, Jack could use his talents to get them out of it. Where others were sure to fail, Jack's aristocratic clientele could always count on him to finish jobs cleanly, efficiently, and leave no trace, for which his services commanded a hefty fee. But one day, Jack picked a fight with the wrong man and his old life came to an end. But, as it turned out, his story was far from over.

Born to a Magical Fantasy Princess and a nine-to-five Supervillain in the most superhero riddled city in the world, Perry's never felt...adequate. He's got no talent for magic, and not a scrap of superpowers to his name. When The System boots and unlocks his powers, it forces him to follow in his father's footsteps, but he'd rather take after his mother... Maybe there's a way he can do both...

Even if it means taking out a few loans. Unfortunately, his new teacher sees him more as a tool than a student. He has set Malachi near-impossible goals before he becomes worthy of Orykson's full attention, and Malachi's innate power is only somewhat above average. Worse, it turns out that Orykson has enemies more powerful than Malachi had ever imagined—and now their attention has landed solidly on him.

This is no ordinary farming saga. My Demonic Farm merges the grit of survival, the thrill of kingdom-building, and the depth of power struggles with a dash of dark humor. In Theo's world, every crop could be your last, and the line between ally and adversary is as thin as a blade's edge.

Some dream of prosperity, of living a calm and peaceful life. But not me. Having reached the pinnacles of success, I can't stop thinking about the past, about a time when any misstep could spell disaster, when I had to pay, work, and risk everything for even the slightest gain and each day was like walking a knife's edge. That's all in the past now. This peaceful, predictable, and privileged life isn't so bad. But it's boring!

Intriguing post-apocalyptic world
First, the narrator is amazing. How was he able to do all those voices and keep them straight? This is a long but fast paced novel that you won’t be able to put down. I just listened to something special.

Incredible voices, even better story
Absolutely phenomenal book. The cultures are unique, their feuds believable, the characters both lovable and hatable as appropriate. Can't wait for the sequel!
The voice acting was stellar as well. The only criticism I could give is I didn't love the babysitter's voice at the very beginning, but every other character's voice had a charm and inflection that made them truly unique and helps immerse you in the author's story.

Pretty good interpretation of fantasy.
I enjoyed how consistent the setup and payoff was throughout the story. They were very good at writing characters to be just the worst people, and making the reader hate them. The magic system is interesting and I'd like to see it expanded upon.

The balance between simple yet visual prose, world building, and plot structure reminds me of Brandon Sanderson. Refreshing. And the audio proformance is on point.

classic and modern
loved the classic fantasy feel mixed with the modern apocalypse setting. Great for fans of Tolkien and Sanderson who love the world building and thorough nature of high fantasy but still want something easily accessible in terms of reading level.

Gripping and unique story with multi-layered characters, great lore, and stellar voice acting
The world of Paragon Exordium is interesting and unique. The mix of traditional fantasy themes with departures from the norm make this world truly its own. Melwasul expertly transitions between world building, action, and character development as the reader makes their way through the fascinating setting leaving the reader with a desire for more! The author uses tonal shifts and moral quandaries not only to further the story but also to world build and develop characters and the blend makes for a heart-wrenching and heart-pounding experience!
All the while, Cormac's narration and use of different voices for each character (seriously, there's so many different voices) adds depth and passion to the performance in a truly evoking way. Multiple scenes were improved drastically by his performance and I can't give enough props here.
I anxiously await the sequel!

Fantasy but in the USA
What could I say about the book other than that it was epic. With the utilization of magic and modern weaponry it created a unique world that you don’t see often. Maybe in urban fantasy but this doesn’t feel like that. This truly feels like the world of fantasy was just dropped on the modern world. But seriously, the world having a cracked sky is cool.
The characters were so well rounded. So many times I can feel what the characters were feeling. I can’t really say I hated the characters other than the characters that are meant to be hated.
And the action, my lord the action! With the mix of both guns and swords fighting in an epic battle field was nothing less than epic. Seriously, the battles were EPIC!
But, the only thing I don’t like is more my taste. I don’t like when they have to travel and talk. I know it’s a fantasy troupe to walk and talk until the next destination but I always find those annoying, and drags the story. So nothing against the author I just never liked these, and it’s mostly because I don’t read fantasy often.
But this is book is for those who loves fantasy, swords, magic, and guns! And overall and epic story.
Truly remarkable.

An amazing performance of an extremely engaging and readable urban fantasy story
My real rating of the story is 4.5 stars. This book was a ton of fun and keeps you thoroughly interested and engaged the whole way through. The author masterfully wove in the fantasy details in a way where you learn things along the way with the characters and are never overwhelmed (despite the many different fantasy creatures and large cast of characters). I absolutely loved the ensemble cast and each character felt well-rounded and layered. I also loved how it truly felt like a fantasy world was dropped right into our own, and I'm definitely interested in reading the sequel.
The voice actor is incredible! This book has so many different characters of varying accents and even species, and everything was embodied SO well. I felt like I was watching a movie and even got scared by the voices at parts.
My main piece of criticism is the last 1/3 of the book or so seemed to lack the quality of editing of the first 2/3. There was a lot of repetition of words and names in consecutive sentences (instead of using similes or other terms to make the language flow) that distracted me. It's a shame, because these things feel like they could've been easily fixed. Otherwise, I think this book is something special and extremely readable!
