About this listen

On the anniversary of his father’s passing, Jon leaves home in search of answers. The land is full of mystery and intrigue, and Jon wants to explore it all with the dream of one day becoming a sorcerer. But when Jon receives an invite to the castle for training, he starts to believe there has to be a catch.

A long time ago, Jon’s father was once a guard near the capital city. Now Jon finds himself back where his father used to work, and he’s beginning to learn why his father had wanted to raise him away from here. He will discover that, along with certain threats to the kingdom, there are also many magical arts to learn. Some seem stronger than others, but all have their use. Jon must come to understand the complexities of sorcery as he uncovers the mysteries and threats to the kingdom. But he also must learn to deal with the other sorcerers who have come to train at the castle at the same time as him...some of whom are hard to trust.

The story line is fun, and the characters are engaging. It’s a nice break from romance driven plots.

Great characters and fascinating magic system

As always, Simon Vance smashed it. Quite a good story - a little weak in patches - the short length of theoretical time between starting service and undying loyalty to the king being one of them - but overall enjoyed the 'read'.

A bit slow, but in the end it got there.
Not sure the reader needed quite so much info on the note cords of magic spells.
Once that was covered the real story started, the following books should be good.

Glad I stuck with it.
