About this listen

From nightmares to knighthood, the true war starts now.

Brin has conquered the nightmares that once plagued him, and now his goal is to master the power of his class—illusion.

With a new skill that lets him split his mind and juggle multiple thoughts, his imagination is the only limit. But time is running out.

War looms as four nations unite against the Queendom of Arcaena. The Witch Queen’s undead army threatens to destroy everything in its path. When Brin is summoned by the leader of an order of knights, he’s plunged into a conflict that will shape the fate of the world.

Brin’s glass and illusion magic are getting stronger, but his greatest advantage is a dangerous secret: the allied kingdoms’ strongest warrior, a Paladin, is actually Arcaena’s spy. Will Brin reveal the secret to everyone, or wait for the perfect moment to strike?

One thing is certain: Brin’s trump card may be a secret, but Arcaena has secrets of her own…

Another fantastic book in the series. Was a long wait and definitely worthwhile. Now just have to wait for the next one.

Love this series!!!

I love this series, and this book just keeps making it better. The new characters are great, and seeing the adult mind in a kids body mix is still a thing and makes it feel real, especially with the MC still trying to navigate it all. The MC isn’t overpowered yet, but honestly, if he did become OP at this point, he’d have earned it. Haha. I love this series—the only bad thing is having to wait for the next book.

one of the best isekai book out there

I rarely give anything full marks (hehe)
But daym this series is good. And I love the narrator, he really gets to stretch his legs in books like this (and Noobtown).
Just a good blend of well written interesting magic theory, thoughtfully written characters, well researched science and deserved rewards. Balanced with friends and shenanigans and found family cuteness.
Good job. Please live forever.

Really good really fun
