About this listen

A secret has been revealed, and others will follow.

After a terrible revelation, Alex Roth must unlearn everything he knows of Thameland and the cycle of the Ravener, all the while hunting for the hidden priests of Uldar’s Rise.

As the First Apostle prepares to destroy the Fool, the villain receives an unexpected ally. Meanwhile, Alex himself has received new information about his Mark…information that could utterly change his life-path.

But he cannot keep his identity hidden forever. Not anymore.

Who will have the last laugh? Alex Roth? Or the grinning face of the Fool?

Book eight of the best-selling series. Continue your fantastical journey into a coming-of-age magic academy fantasy with a weak-to-strong progression into power, deepening mystery, a setting inspired by D&D, detailed world building and magical science, action, comedy, slice-of-life, and GameLit elements.

Fantastic series

love this series so much. it's not like any of the other books in the genre. I spent the entire time on a journey in my mind. it's a slow lead up in this book. but I love that. I love when you get to know and care about the characters.. rather than just action scene after action scene. keep up the good work.

great writing as always! can't wait for the next book

Just like all of the rest, I binged this way too quickly. The narrator and author just weave a tale far too gripping. I will be eagerly waiting for the next one!

Amazing as always

Great story as always but felt rushed at the end skipping over details, then the story finished in a part which felt like the end of a chapter. No cliffhanger or any suspense.

I'm looking forward to the next book just to finish the story from this book.

Only half the story

I love this series but Book 8 feels like the first half of a longer book. All the build up, then none of the action.

Incomplete
