About this listen

After concluding their first year at Lorian Heights, Corin and his friends catch a train from their native Valia to the distant country of Caelford.

For most, this would be a simple vacation. Corin has other plans:

  • Meet Anabelle Farren, the eccentric owner of Farren Labs, and learn about artificial attunements.
  • Seek out Warren Constantine, a previous Arbiter, for training and a potential alliance.
  • Find the visage Ferras herself to seek a cure for Sera's condition.

Of course, Corin is Corin, and there's absolutely no chance he's going to be able to stick to a list. Even if he miraculously developed a sense of focus, he isn't the only one with plans....

The Blackstone Bandit. Everyone's favorite mysterious book entity. The aforementioned Farren. A vacationing professor. The mirror of a figure from Keras' past. When their plots intersect, Corin and his friends are, predictably, stuck at the center.

It's going to be a long vacation.

I cannot wait to experience the next book in this utterly enchanting series. The character growth is unparalleled. The narration is so smooth and entertaining - I’ve chewed through three of these books in the last 2 weeks! Please tell me there’s more! Lol. Thankyou.

This is 1 of 3 series i absolutly enjoy, as having difficulty with my focus reading.

An exelent sientific and magical story of socialy akward young person.
Personaly i feel connected due to the similaritys of real life the main character is going trougth minus the magic, sadly.

The story continues stifts and turns we still have a lot to uncover.
I wish the series Eternal life if not some fan spinoffs as well.

Cure for analytical souls
