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.

Another sterling effort, brought to life in the performance. It's great to see how the Roth family have grown. Just painful to know there's only 2 books to go.

Another cracking well paced story, breathed to life by the amazing VA.

Great all-round story to get into - likeable characters and imaginative plot. would recommend 👌 - this did feel like it wasn't rounded off well

Great listen as always

i genuinely think it would of been a better ending for the book to have finished after the king stuff, even if it would of been alot shorter as that was a whole cimplete story. it feels like the last third of the book is it entering a new arc with only the prologue being finished so it ended with a the beginning of a new story which feels weird

the ending of the books feels like a end of the chapter and mistimed
