About this listen
Hidden Powers. An Ancient Academy. Forbidden Fruits.
After years of service in the Imperial Expeditionary Force, Jol Rivers has found a tentative home in Littlereach, where he makes a living as a blacksmith.
One day, however, a beautiful mage arrives and tells him that he has a mysterious magical power hidden within the items he forges, one that could defeat the malignant forces threatening the Second Empire. She invites him to the Lyceum, an institute for mages where he can develop this power.
Little does Jol know that he has his own knowledge to impart to the other students, the kind of forbidden talents that binds them to him…

Story
All of the incredibly powerful high mages died out centuries ago. Nobody expected one to return. I was just a simple blacksmith apprentice when a visit by the mages of Essalin confirmed what I’d long suspected—I could touch the aether. Destined to be a mage, I’m plucked from my village alongside a feisty redhead so we could journey to the fabled city of the high mages to learn how to control and wield the aether. The road there isn’t going to be easy though.

Story
I expected aging out of the foster care system to be hard. I wasn't expecting it to include finding out I was a Warlock, destined to be hunted by the most powerful Witch Families so they could bind me to a coven of thirteen witches and spend the rest of my life "harvesting mana". Add to that a set of magical resonants that made me an even bigger target to some of those Witch Families, some of which would rather kill me than let a rival get me.

Deep in the elbow skin of the Fae Wilds, far from the teeming fortress of the Goblin King and the glittering palace of the King and Queen of the Elves, there lies a forgotten hideaway of crumbling single-wides and rusty Airstreams. A lonely clan of beautiful women, clad in tube tops, overall shorts, and tacky Asian-print house-dresses, yearn for a man who can unstop their sewer lines and get the internet working again.

Story
I expected aging out of the foster care system to be hard. I wasn't expecting it to include finding out I was a Warlock, destined to be hunted by the most powerful Witch Families so they could bind me to a coven of thirteen witches and spend the rest of my life "harvesting mana". Add to that a set of magical resonants that made me an even bigger target to some of those Witch Families, some of which would rather kill me than let a rival get me.

A cozy home in a small town, a lake for fishing, and a few friendly neighbors — that's all Sean needs. And that’s exactly what he’s hoping to find in the quiet town of Waycross. But when he discovers a mysterious book in the attic of his new home, strange things start to happen. Strange and magical things.

While the land is tainted with a curse against magic itself, slivers of its might seep through. Alex's Isekai comes with the special gift of Rune Magic. Rune magic is mostly gone, a vestige of its ancient power and if he unlocks some of his secrets, he may just restore balance. Of course, the odds are against him and the mysteries abound. Cerenis is not some cozy fantasy world. It's plagued by the Sudrel who are eager to kill someone like him.

I guess you could call my latest job interview a success. I got hired, and it's way beyond my wildest dreams. The pay isn't great. And the hours are pretty much 24/7. But there's magic. And a portal to a fantasy world. Those kind of outweigh the negatives. At first, I thought I was just testing the latest VR survival RPG, but I'm starting to think this might not be a game after all. The monsters are definitely life-like and capable of carving me apart on their worst days. But on their best days, I make them mine.

Change is the only constant, and not all change is good. The change most recent for Tristan Walker was all the free time he now had after finding his girlfriend in a compromising position with a few other people. He went back to his normal routine of life and had mostly forgotten the indiscretion when he found himself waking on his couch after a bright flash of light, with two suns hanging in the sky.

All of the incredibly powerful high mages died out centuries ago. Nobody expected one to return. I was just a simple blacksmith apprentice when a visit by the mages of Essalin confirmed what I’d long suspected—I could touch the aether. Destined to be a mage, I’m plucked from my village alongside a feisty redhead so we could journey to the fabled city of the high mages to learn how to control and wield the aether. The road there isn’t going to be easy though.

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!

Surprisingly good
I never write reviews for this genre, but this book was surprisingly good and had an actual story that was interesting. It's a 5 star book for the genre - it's not a 5 star book compared to "real" books. I hope I dont offend anyone by making that comparison. It's a bit weird because I had sworn to myself that I'd never buy another Dante King book again because the last I read was trash, but this book is really good and I'm looking forward to the 2nd book.

2/5 characters 4/5 plot
Character’s are flat but the plot is good for the genre. I Listen while I work and It was decent for that. Wouldn’t recommend to good company if you know what I mean but it’s a decent read.

Moronic MC
The main character is a moron that occasionally gives you a glimmer of hope that he has just a little bit of a brain. The female characters are unimpressive with cookie cutter character traits. The World is inconsistent at best switching from medieval to post apocalyptic to steam punk without steam. the wordplay is just terrible, either written by an AI or someone who barely speaks English. overall a terrible book that I barely finished.

Not even a little good
it reads like a fanfic written by a teenager going through puberty one that has failed every english class of their life. the main character is a complete idiot and acts like a child even though he is supposed to be a nearly 30 year old veteran and the female characters are just sex dolls with characters as deep as a puddle. it is not even decent on the lesser scale I judge books of this genre in don't waste your time.
