Evan never thought he was going to be special. As the adopted son of a tailor, he had always expected to manage the shop after his father passed. But when his Aura awakens, he finds himself entering Yesgol Academy of Magic, a place filled with the children of elite mages and nobles, all of whom have had magical education from the time they could walk. Among such prestigious company, Evan will have to learn fast or be left in the dust and in debt.

At Yesgol, he studies the arts of enchanting and divination, but all is not as it seems. As Evan pushes forward his skills as a mage to catch up with his peers, he finds himself entangled with a secret society for the reformation of magic, deals with the occasional extraplanar horror appearing in the shadows of the school, and catches the eye of a charming young noble who's been excommunicated from his family.

The story does have a slow beginning but once the action and schooling begins the story becomes irresistible. I had it playing non stop through work, cooking, exercising, etc

Great Book

Usually I don't care about the gender of the narrator matching the protagonist's gender, but it's jarring when told in first person. It's also jarring when she sometimes used a deeper voice for the character's lines than his first person narration.

Beyond that note, all I have is praise. I enjoyed the story immensely and immediately purchased the next book in the series.

Awesome to see a gay MC and for that to not be the focus of the novel. Sexuality is just one trait among a multitude and we so little representation of gays that it's rare to see this just being a trait.

I Immediately Bought the Next Book

I really enjoyed it beginning to end. I related perhaps a bit too hard to the gay, socially-anxious, agoraphobic main character. The romance is cute and the story is mostly cohesive.
There were some minor stylistic things I didn't gel with (but that's a me issue and one I can get over) and a minor plot inconsistency, but overall, I'm excited to see where the series goes. I wait on the sequel with bated breath.

Cute, gay, and magical

I enjoyed this a lot, and I can't wait to read more. The narration was excellent as well!

Great story and narration!

I was deep into this book. it had fantasy, magic flights, and cute romance. but kind of wish this had a young adult male to voice this book since the main protagonist is a boy. excited for the next book!

An enchanting story

this book was amazing. I love that the hero is relatable to introverts. Heroes in most books are clever and funny, confident to the point of arrogance. I also love the "newish" idea of magic in this universe. it's unlike any other fantasy/lit rpg I've read so far. it blends multiple ways magic is described in others to make its own flare. however, if you're reading this Tobias, I strongly advise against using this narrator again. she made an enthralling story very hard to get through. she just sounded bored through the whole book. she managed to use SOME minor inflections during exciting or action parts, but GEEZ. All in all a good book though.

Story Great

Overall was a good book and well worth listening to. Emily did a great job narrating but frankly, a book about a man who dates men, should be narrated by a man. It’s just less confusing that way.

Good story but female narrator was a weird choice

Loved it! It flowed well and was entertaining. when will the next book be released?

Engaging

Loved the story and universe the author hady created. Detailed, fun, and had perfect pacing.

The performance was great, but I wished the narrator softened the use of the "S" in their words. Some sentences were barely tolerable because of it.

Looking forward to the next novella's.

Wonderful story!
