About this listen

The Wilds relentlessly reclaim all things. Humanity shelters within their ever-dying cities. Mages create the only path forward.

Tala had to fight tooth and nail in the Magic Academy to forge a path to power that was her own. She knows it’s her duty to use that power to serve humanity, defending them against the creatures of the untamable wilds. However, she skipped a few steps in her education, like apprenticing to someone who actually knows what they’re doing.

Now, Tala has to balance learning as fast as she can with paying off the veritable mountain of debt the Magic Academy dropped on her shoulders for the opportunity; not to mention staying alive.

Even though she should only be a Mageling, the world considers her a Mage. Bless the stars she directed most of her magic toward survival.

Takes a while to get into the rhythm of the story telling but it is worth the wait. Now I can't wait for the next one!

great series

I thought it would be slow and it is but after reading it I now realize it is part of its charm
it is a slice of life progression fantasy, low stacks, woman walking around talking to people, see interesting creatures, defending herself if she must and slowly becoming a powerful mage

it is a calm walk as far as progression fantasy goes
a good reason for the negative reviews is that it doesn't state it is slice of life on audible so if you come expecting non stop action you could be disappointed

slice of life progression fantasy story

Interesting main character. If you ever played Skyrim, but ignored the main quest and just explored and tried to accumulate wealth, you'll probably like this book.

Do recommend

narration was ok, the story had no plot that was meaningful.
Just comes accross as an entitled young female magician who gives attitude to everyone she meets.
most of the story is felt like a drawn out diary of a 2 week journey about every small detail. any 'breakthrough' felt underwhelming and made you think it wasn't even a progression to begin with.
would not recommend this book to anyone.
has the makings of something worth reading/listening to but its not there yet.

extremely slow going and unfulfilling plot
