Magic, danger, and epic fantasy collide in this spellbinding first book of the Silent Archmage series, where an archmage seeking peace enrolls in a magic academy, only to be swept into a treacherous magical adventure.

Syl, an archmage who tirelessly fought the monsters spilling from the magical Gates and Towers, yearns for a life free from the chaos of battle. When he is assigned to an Aurian magic academy to guard an undercover princess, he is happy to be no more than an unremarkable class three student with dismal practical scores. Right up until people start trying to kill them both.

As outside forces start to close in and Auria hides its weakness from its people, Syl refuses to allow his peace to be trampled on. Once, he was legendary on the battlefield, a voiceless sovereign who left nothing in his wake. Now, he will once again show the world why they feared the Silent Archmage...

Overall the story is decent, the reader is fantastic as usual, however the overall story appears to be both the Irregular at Magic High School and Solo Leveling mixed together, and changed just enough to make it almost appear to be original, but you can definitely feel the mixing of both mangas in the storyline.

Seems to be 2 popular Manga with small changes

I swear to you this book just the premise of Irregular At Magic High School down to a tee in some areas I think this came second I’m not completely sure either way it’s good hell they both give me the same time filler nice distraction

Is this a remake?

It's the Irregular at Magic High School!!! I absolutely LOVE IT!!!! I'm going to listen to every single book in the series. Plus one of my favorite narrators is telling the story. Good job Ghost Flower!!!

Hooked by chapter 2!!!

Fantasy and magic are so rarely able to carry off multilayered intrigue &/or spycraft w/o finagling their magic system &/or by heavily relying on some fit-in "because they can" character idiosyncrasies. Well done. Highly recommended and a joy. Also, the narrator really fits the characters and writing style.

Here's hoping this author is a swift writer who won't skimp on such detail and complexity as this fine craft. Thank your editor, dear author. It's been ages since I've not been drawn out of a story for at least a few continuity errors slamming me in the face. Keep up the good work. May your careers go far!

This is a blatant retelling of irregular at magic high school. But I had forgotten about the anime. I really enjoyed this book having seen the anime a while ago. Having some idea of the anime made it easier to follow. It also made me want to go watch more of the anime. This story over all was good. Looking forward to more books with hopefully more original ideas.

Use of the”f” word did not enhance the story. Other than that I think the story was pretty good and held my attention.

Story was different from past “Mage” stories I had read.

The silent archmage is a true hidden gem. The unique take on the magic system is incredible. It is clear a significant amount of time and research was put into it. The characters develop well and it has numerous moments of amusement, tense action, and surprises. I've recommended this to all my friends and recommend it to anyone reading this review.

I enjoyed this book although it def didn’t feel like a first book. This felt more like a sequel series or like a book 3 or 4.

Very decent
