About this listen

Arden was left in the village by a dying mage, who never returned. With no way out of the village on his own, he had always held onto the hope that one day his magic would awaken and give him access to his spheres.

But he’s about to turn eighteen and it’s never come. Instead, he’s settled into his lot as a sarcastic and quick-witted innkeeper.

That all changes one night when his old flame, who escaped the village to become a mage’s anchor, returns.

Ard’s life is about to go through some dramatic changes, and he’s not ready for them.

Too bad, with magic comes responsibility and Ard needs to adapt quickly because he’s making more enemies than friends with his glib tongue. Thankfully, he’s got some help along the way.

Because he’ll need it. As the most powerful mage in the nation, he’s about to be thrown headfirst into the elite of the kingdom and a few jokes won’t stop a sword.

The author went way overboard on the whole "witty banter" character trait. The setting was great, the magic system was great, the women were awesome and had their own character. Even the MC's backstory was solid, he just couldn't keep his damn mouth shut and most of his "wit" was asinine.

Could have been a really great story of the main character wasn't such an unbearable prick.

I read the first 2 novels and I love Bruce Sentar but after listening to the amazing voice actors do their best...... And still comes off as a whinny snot that just isn't tough enough to question bandits

I wish Ard wasn't such a whinny wuss

I enjoyed this book quite a lot, I really like when we get multiple prospective from multiple different character without giving too much of what's gunna happen away. I wish the next book was on audible aready.

this is a good book to listen, good twist of the main character talking more then he should. and the strongest lady's that handle the trouble that he will bring because he can not stop his tongue

I can tell how much fun Bruce is having writing Ard. You can feel it in the silly banter he’s always blurting out.

The most unique and funny MC from all of his works

The book is enjoyable. However, the MC Ard cries too much for my taste. He comes across as a over emotional metro sexual man.

Dude Stop Crying!!!

super interesting world and I'm liking the story so far. but the audio is killing me. one of the men is described as a quiet listener and every time he talks it's just a whisper. I understand that in theory, but you don't need to actually whisper voice lines. I keep having to juggle my volume knob every time he talks, and then the next person that talks blows my ears out.

overall good except for volume issues.
