About this listen
Every mage wants to be an adventurer . . . if they can afford it.
Bernt might have graduated from the Mage Academy, but not everyone has the money or connections to launch a prestigious career as a mage.
Bernt finds himself working in the city sewers as an Underkeeper among the other rejects of Halfbridge's magery. He may spend more time unclogging pipes than fighting monsters, but hey, it's a stable job, and that's what counts. With the help of his unregistered soul-devouring demonic familiar, he'll save enough to launch his career as an adventurer—just as soon as he can afford some proper gear.
When a dungeon unexpectedly opens beneath Halfbridge, it's the golden opportunity he's been looking for to get ahead. But when a simple dungeon raid goes wrong, Bernt finds himself on the front lines of a battle against an ancient foe. To survive, he'll need to master everything at his disposal, from his pyromancy to the growing bond with his demonic familiar.
For most, waging a war in the sewers is a nightmare.
For Bernt, it's just another workday.

Story
I used to be the greatest Earth Mage in my world. The head of the entire Order of Architects. But the older you get, the more you come to realize that at some point, you need to retire, so that you can have the chance to enjoy a peaceful life and to cede your place to the young, some of whom have already turned two thousand years old . . .So that's what I did. But I failed to account for one thing: during the course of my long life, I'd accumulated too many enemies, and they had decided to spoil my retirement. So they died along with me. And I hope their deaths were final. But mine was not!

Story
In a world where runes hold unimaginable power, mere mortal and gifted artisan Nate must harness arcane magic to navigate treacherous paths, reveal the hidden truths of his own past, and discover the workings of the illusive ‘System’. No big deal. Emboldened by only his penknife and a weirdly profound understanding of runic sorcery, Nate must uncover if the path he has been thrust upon may spare his earthly existence. After all, why only leave your mark on one world… when you might leave it on two?

Jordan isn’t anyone special before the Merging, but the new start equalizes the playing field. He must exploit his versatile class to overcome powerful monsters and opportunistic strangers who kill people as a quick path to power.

To save his world and fulfill his master's last wish, he puts himself through a forbidden ritual, risking his soul being ripped into pieces to make his way into the past, to a golden era with abundant mana. But things go wrong. He overshoots and finds himself in an ancient time thousands of years earlier, within the body of a young lord named Arzan.

The System is here! Most of the population of the planet were suddenly turned into zombies, while the rest acquired new abilities. Abilities that let them run from the zombies, save themselves, hide, and try to survive. But it only takes one bite that almost always means death. Our hero was standing in line when the apocalypse came. He was lucky at first to be caught in a crowd when the zombies tried to bite him on the leg. Really lucky, because those trials unlocked new abilities for him.

Story
Abandoned. Desperate. And a source of infinite power in the palm of her hands. The gods, ascended masters of mana, rule over the universe with an iron fist. Vayra, growing up as a mortal street rat, only knew a few things: they loved power, hierarchies, and respect. She was at the bottom of the food chain. She was never supposed to amount to much. But she refuses to accept her fate. She’ll do anything to rise above her circumstances, including forming a pact with a rebellious goddess to kickstart her path to the top. Or, maybe just mastering a starlight-based Path—something very illegal.

Great story and premise.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
He is also a run of the mill mage with nothing special about him , his imp is low level and common giving him no advantage and any low level warlock could summon one. His mage is common fire mage and that's it.
He doesn't learn some special spell or anything, he even ignores the one unique scroll he finds , cold fire.
So really it's a book about a story and not the MC growth.
Which personally I found disappointing as I hoped to see the MC become unique and powerful. Not a bottom barrel basic level mage who gets worn out after 2 big spells and is useless after.
Good story , bad MC

Great pacing problematic ending

Really good start to this series.
The narrator is ok. he mixes up voices on occasion and his female voices are not good. What bothered me most was his narrator voice. It is the voice you hear most often and get really annoying especially when he enunciates every sound in a word rather than speaking naturally as he does when he is voicing the characters.
Great Story

His job is that of a "Muck Mage" tasked to clean out the sewer drains from backing up from alchemists illegally dumping their failed concoctions down the drain. To assist with that task, he made an illegal pact with a young demon imp who scouted the sewers and protected the MC. That sets the stage for all of the drama and violence that would follow.
The pacing was a bit too slow for my liking and the MC, while likable, had a personality that screamed "bad luck magnet".
Daniel Thomas May's performance was very good.
I'm uncertain if I'll continue the series.
I enjoyed book's unique character choices

Some reviews complain about the ending, but it's not really that odd. Yes, the author could have brought this story to a close a little more smoothly, but I don't think I would have noticed any awkwardness if others hadn't remarked on it. I look forward to the next book.
Well-written, well-narrated
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Despite his desire to be an adventurer, he remains willfully ignorant about everything related to the occupation, as well as ignorant to methods for his personal advancement, knowledge of familiar bonds, demons. Even as the book is ending he still acts like he has no idea why people are nervous about his demon, despite all the explanations we’ve been given through the book.
The saving grace of the book is actually the supporting cast of characters. They’re intelligent, noble, gracious, generous, despite the MC lacking any common sense
The worst sin to me is the lack of advancement through this book. For a would be adventurer mage, there’s no excuse for him to have learned not even a single new combat spell
The Main Character is a Dolt
