Publisher's Summary

Every year, the empire administers the rite of passage into adulthood. That rite serves to identify those blessed by Aether to become magi. The new magi are shipped to the academy to learn the arts of magic.

The academy is a dangerous place; the tournaments held twice each year can cripple or kill the students, and the clans of the empire will go to great lengths to recruit the students they want.

Gregory had one dream: to become a magi like the legends of old. Though he was ridiculed by the residents of the village and his unsupportive father, he never wavered from his dream. Would his age day bring the fruition of his dreams, or would reality come crashing down on him?

(This audiobook contains some adult themes.)

Aether's Blessing

Daniel Schinhofen is one of the most talented and skilled author.
And I got to say I'm hooked on the This book and a can't wait to buy the next book in this series.

And with the voice acting talents and skills of Andrea Parsneau who makes the characters and world come alive with the narration of this book.

Also I bloody love the Bloopers at the end of this book lol.

Was caught off guard by this book I am now a fan

The book its self starts out a bit slow for my taste but once it starts running i just couldn't stop listening the characters are well designed the villain is a little shallow but I expect with more time he will become a more exciting antagonist I can't wait to read the second book

Fun story with amazing narration

First up Andrea is an outstanding voice actor, absolutely nails the characters, and the bloopers at the end are gold.
The story itself is great, and doesn't get stuck grinding for progress allowing for development of multiple characters while still keeping good pace.

Really enjoyed it, well worth the money.

My only issues are.
The MC’s aether/darkness is read like an evil villain. I’m not sure why, but if I was the MC I would be very concerned about the voice in my head.
The MC’s main love interest is sooooo annoying. Can you please just kill her off already.
Apart from that it is well worth the money and I loved it.

Im here to warn you before you start

This series starts off amazing and book 1 deserves all the reviews it gets, Im here to warn you that by book 3 50% of the book spends its time describing sex scenes in very explicit detail, the other 30% is describing the food eaten and the last 20% on random mundane shit. If you're looking for a series with fighting and advancing themselves this series is not for you, if you're looking for a erotic harem series thats pretty much porn then go ahead. Props to the Narrator she's amazing.
