About this listen
The key to finding the one responsible for the attack on Terndahl involves crossing the waste, but is Tolan willing to risk the tenuous peace they've achieved for revenge?
Now a master shaper, Tolan must serve the Academy, but he understands the risk his mother poses. While others want to study the power out on the waste, Tolan sees the need to look beyond Terndahl. His mother remains at large, and they still don’t know her ultimate goal.
When a chance encounter while traveling with the Draasin Lord reveals something unexpected, Tolan realizes he must expedite the plan to explore beyond the waste. What he finds there changes everything he knows about the elements - and the elementals.
The final book in Elemental Academy series.

Story
The power of the elements can be complicated to master. Most reach it through the element bonds, ways of connecting to and shaping power that allowed the nation of Terndahl to thrive for centuries. Few can reach power of their own, an ancient way of holding magic the elemental warriors of old possessed.

Trained to kill from a young age, Gavin Lorren finally escaped that life. No more killing innocents. No more working alone. Holed up in a quiet city that has outlawed magic, Gavin finds himself drawn into dangers unlike any he’s ever faced before. Each job tests him more than the last, and each tied to the kind of magic he’d hoped to avoid.

Executioners don’t solve crimes; they punish those who commit them. Or, so Finn thought before apprenticed to one. Poverty-stricken Finn Jagger would give anything to heal his ailing mother. With his father imprisoned, Finn has joined a thieving crew to earn the money he needs to save her. When the latest heist turns to disaster and lands him on death row, Finn’s future seems to be tied up with a noose. Until the king’s executioner claims him as an apprentice. Finn soon learns an executioner has far more power and greater responsibility than he’d ever realized.

All while the notorious Dragon Thief chases the same prize. The Dragon Thief has a reputation for a reason, but Ty begins to think there’s more to the job than he ever expected.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

Felix's life on Earth had become a series of dead-end jobs, ruined relationships, and rotating apartments smaller than most postage stamps. By all accounts, even his own, he was a coward. Too afraid to move forward, to take risks. Yet when given the chance to choose between risking his life or walking away from a deadly encounter, he didn't hesitate. Moments before his untimely demise, Felix was snatched from earth and thrust into a magical world known only as "The Continent". Empowered by the "System", he learns that he can strengthen himself through combat and dedication.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

Elves were supposed to be gone, defeated in the great war. Magic is practiced behind closed doors, and only by the elites. All I was trying to do was survive, maybe with a bit more curiosity about my master's magic than I should've allowed. He caught me snooping, and sent me on a quest to steal a magic scroll. A quest that would change my life.

great series
perhaps I was distracted but the ending seemed very abrupt. I'll listen to it again but a bit anticlimactic

It’s a great story but authors repeating mantras grate!!
One you get past the going in circles and repeating mantras the story is great. I must confess I had a hard staying with it at times but in the end it’s worth it.

Good listen..
Loved the book. The ending left me wanting more. The main characters doubts his abilities all the time, almost frustratingly. But even then he does come through. Ala in all good book! I would definitely recommend it.

Still really like the story, but very restorative
This author always has a really good story with interesting themes and pretty good characters if not constantly unsure of themselves, makes them a bit annoying, but usually they turn out fine. I've listened to a couple different series and read reviews from others he's done. It seems like this is his schtick. His other thing that is classic fit his writing is that it's super repetitive to the point of almost making it difficult to listen to. Overall, while I think he could have made the story here a bit deeper and then made another book for the resolution, I like the ending in general.

An Amazing Series
Honestly one of the best fantasy series I've ever read/listened to. I highly recommend it for those who love to delve into a new universe and observe how a writer brings it and the characters to life. I look forward to seeing if D.K. Holmberg decides to create a new story set in this universe. For now, I'll be moving on to another one of his series. Thank you to John Pirhalla as well. His narration made this even more fun to listen to as he masterfully aided in bringing the characters to life.
10/10 would read/listen to this series again and highly recommend it.

Never Changes
If you want to read an entire series full of a main character Whoes only real skill is self doubt nsd personal loathing, then this is the book for you. The protagonist of this books only continues to live because the writer makes it so. This character is mediocrity at its finest, the only thing special about the character is that for some unexplained reason he gets continually lucky and just magically stumbles upon realizations just in the nick of time.....

Honest Review, Rant, Don't read inless you finished the book.
This book is a great Skeleton. In the beginning, the book gets you really interested in the world builds its self really well. The it kinda falls off. It's like the other doesn't want the MC to investigate stuff, get stronger, build relationships. How many dates did MC go on with Farah? MC forgets about both his best friends. The MC doesnt follow the academy rules at all but wont tell his best friend how to pass and Droan gets his family or teacher to tell him everything and what's going on with the Soldiers. Theirs Obviously another power system at play but the book never goes into it. The there's the ending with the mother and grandmother. There's a ton of plot holes here. MC learn to search for Bondars but can Sense it on the Main Bad guy. The book never brings up anything sexual at all then the mom dies because she's Horny. Shes supposed to be this badass, with her planing and Spirits magic and the grandmother and MC. scanned her mind multiple times but never found the memories? The lastly the MC is very good at finding alternate ways to Shape but is allergic to making himself stronger. The MC made a bond with 1 elemental and a second at the end but for a guy who goes around saying he needs to be stronger and never bonding with the other elementals also what happened to Chaos? I apologize to anyone who reads this I'm typing it on my phone.
