About this listen
Every kingdom Rezkin touches has shattered, and the turbulence in his homeland is spreading across the Souelian.
From the shards of kingdoms past, he begins to forge a new empire. But there is a price to pay for power, and the balance has come due.
When Rezkin is confronted by something mysterious and ancient, he is stolen from his intended path and driven toward shocking revelations about his identity. With every whisper of knowledge comes new dangers and one certainty.
Rezkin’s past has finally caught up with him, and the mad king Caydean is playing a darker game than anyone realized.

Felix's life on Earth had become a series of dead-end jobs, ruined relationships, and rotating apartments smaller than most postage stamps. By all accounts, even his own, he was a coward. Too afraid to move forward, to take risks. Yet when given the chance to choose between risking his life or walking away from a deadly encounter, he didn't hesitate. Moments before his untimely demise, Felix was snatched from earth and thrust into a magical world known only as "The Continent". Empowered by the "System", he learns that he can strengthen himself through combat and dedication.

Story
After the old gods warred and drove themselves to extinction, the cataclysm of their fall shattered the land of Vigrio. Now, power-hungry jarls carve out petty kingdoms, and monsters stalk the shadow-haunted woods and mountains. A world where the bones of the dead gods still hold great power, promising fame, and fortune for those brave - or desperate - enough to seek them out. As whispers of war echo over the plains and across the fjords, fate follows the footsteps of three people. All three will shape the fate of the world, as it once more teeters on the edge of chaos.

Story
The ancient magic of wizards was anything but dark. It was the enlightenment that lifted humanity from the squalor of superstition, and the worship of fell spirits and capricious gods, but those days are gone. The shining glory of the sorcerers burned away the subtlety of wisdom, replacing it with easy power, held only in the hands of the elite - a new age built upon the elemental supremacy of aristocrats and the ignorance of the masses.

Positive Experience
The epilogue answered all the things I was starting to notice as impeding the development of Rezkin as a character! And I like how the author did this.
Overall a lot of mini questions are answered, some interesting new characters introduced and we start to see Rezkin learn more about who he is and not what he was made into.
I liked it alot.

As the title says, the first two setted the bar too high. The story is good, really good, but not amazing. Performance is still amazing though, no question about that.

I like the ending but it makes me feel like many of the growing done in this book was for nothing. Also the red and blue thing seems rather out of left field and pointless.

Worth a listen
While this newest installment I felt wasn't as full as the previous books were it's still a generally good read, there was a lot left to hang about with loose ends and certain plot lines unfollowed.
I admit to feeling a satisfaction at Frisha's plight, her character had been making me chaffe for a while now so it was good to see she had a sort of comeuppance.
There is so much good story here and it's enjoyable, but the lack of attention to certain details added made the reading a little lackluster
