About this listen

Life at the academy just got...messy.

I've always dreamed of getting into a top college, but after a stint in juvie, my school prospects went sideways fast. Now I work at a magic academy...as a janitor. Ironic, right?

Okay, so maybe I get a kick out of secretly solving the arcane equations the professors leave on the board for the rich, entitled student wizards. I'm broke, not stupid.

Except then I get caught by the hottest mage on campus...who ropes me into helping him and his three equally gorgeous friends win a decidedly screwed-up magic competition.

Easy enough, I think - until I start setting things on fire and getting chased by smoke-faced monsters and fighting side by side with four of the sexiest, most powerful wizards ever...and find myself - just maybe - falling in love....

With all of them.

Whoops.

Light, pnr with some angst, a little steam, and a lot of magic. I was disappointed that only the prologue was narrated by Alexander Cendese as Connor. The rest of the book was from the fmc pov, and the 2ish spicy scenes fell flat in her narration. This was an entertaining break from reality, and I'm curious enough about what happens to check out the next book.

interesting

Liked: It's a good premise with interesting and likeable characters. It seems to be building to a good story arc.
Disliked: The Mage Trials have a LitRPG feel. I'm not a fan. The explicit sex adds zero to the book. Like in the movies, it's hard to get that right and it keep it from being a bore. The narrator reads perfectly. I just find the smokers voice out of place.

Engaging with a few negatives

Sorry I wasn't a big fan. I had trouble connecting with the characters and I felt no connection between the characters. Sure the two had sex but there wasn't much of the since of feeling like they were more than sex buddies.

Not a fan

The story and plot was pretty good. Very easy to get into and the FMC and MMCs are not irritatingly exhausting. They are easy to like.

Narration: the female voice was okay. It took a while for it to grow on me for the female leads voice. I didn’t like how the female voice portrayed some of the main male characters. It gave off grandpa and gravelly (and not in the sexy way gravelly voices do). It sounded like old men and not the handsome young men they are portrayed to be. It just wasn’t for me BUT I was able to just look pass it.

Good story

nice quick read.

The narration was kind of weird. Everyone sounds like preteens with this voice actor and it was so annoying. DNF for the voice acting alone.

I prefer the book.

4 stars given because it’s only one voice even though the details states a male and female narrator

Great Story
