About this listen

My name is James, but my mom’s the only person that can call me that. To everyone else, I’m JD — a struggling artist, working my fingers to the bone for my shot with one of the big comic book companies.

Oh, and I work nights, managing a dive called Judson’s Bar and Grill. I know: the dream life. Things were boring, disappointing, even. Until one fateful night when everything changed.

What happened first? An odd woman showed up in a booth while I was trying to close up for the night – rude, but on its own, not so weird. She was dressed in a kimono and had a sword in her lap; that part was a little strange.

What happened next? It turns out she’s a mistress at a magical academy, and she has been looking for me...(please pick up on my sarcasm here). Except then she proved it, and with just a few violent swings of her very real sword, she ensured that I didn’t have a job anymore. So, I more or less had to follow her into a scary, glowing portal.

Where did it take me? A surreal place called Zenith Academy, and a life I’d only ever dreamt of; a place I’ll learn how to cultivate mana and wield magic-like powers. And that is just the beginning. The tower imbues cultivators with visual prompts and game-like stats, making my new life feel like something straight out of a choose your own adventure novel. But it’s not all for nothing.

Evidently, they’ve been fighting a war for thousands of years, and I’ve just been drafted.

Nice

Decent Combo of gamelit and the other thing.
Has major growth potential, some tropes with the thirst of the MC.

Voice performances were above par.

Unique story

I like it, at first I thought it was going to be another harem based story but it surprisingly had a lot of depth.

riveting

a great start to a fascinating series. the way the cultivation, story, and mc grows sets it apart from others of the genre. the weapon and magic selecting process as well as unprodictable patron benefactors make it a great story that just flew by. it will have you laughing at the interactions of other characters with the confusion of earth based pop culture references and nonchalant interest in royalty. book 2 can't get here fast enough!

Great book. Editing needs work

Still giving it 5 stars. I loved this book. The only complaint is the dialog doesn't have a natural pause at times. Whoever edited the sound files didn't leave a gap. So the dialog is unnatural at times. It's very distracting. But the story, the system, and the characters are all great. Some reviews said the MC's disbelief was annoying, but I disagree. New situations take time to become real. Things that violate everything you know to be true don't just immediately make sense. Details are well done. You can imagine buildings, clothes, combat, etc without issue. I haven't listened to many books with sex, but I think this makes a good balance of detail without getting unnecessarily graphic.

Not bad but not great

I wan't to say that overall this book is a solid 4 but there are some issues that I want to share my opinion on. First is the characters major flaws. I mean I understand that authors want to make characters stand out but this author is exaggerating characters to a ridiculous degree. Second this is an academy and there was only an introduction seminar and one class. Why make this a magic academy book when it is clearly a tower climbing book. If you took the academy away the book would be the same.
