Just days after an astonishing ascent to Grandmaster Alchemist, Ruwen finds himself embroiled in a contest of mythical proportions. Invited by the enigmatic Nine Muses, Ruwen and a cohort of alchemists from the Black Pyramid journey to a mysterious location where the boundaries between the Shadow Realm and the Material Realm dangerously blur.

As the competition unfolds, Ruwen suspects that the Muses' quests harbor darker undertones. With each task designed to delve deeper into the forbidden, Ruwen fears the Muses have unearthed a secret in the Shadow Realm—one that threatens to unravel the very fabric of the universe.Guiding his friends and fellow alchemists, Ruwen must navigate through this treacherous contest while honing skills long neglected. As the true nature of the Muses' pact with the shadows emerges, Ruwen faces a race against time to unravel the mysteries of the Shadow Realm and prevent a cataclysm that could annihilate all he holds dear.

In "The Tenth Muse," secret alliances are revealed, ancient secrets are unearthed, and the barrier between realms blurs. In the flickering shadows of otherworldly pacts Ruwen must outwit the Muses and save the universe, or risk becoming the final note in their perilous symphony.

another great one!

really enjoyed the pacing and the way this book brought the cast together in a new way. excited for the next one already!

Wow… that was a lot

Honestly one of my favorite books in this series. I found the slice of life and leveling balance to be very enjoyable. But now… I just honestly cannot wait to read the next one. Great job!

Loved it

This has always been one of my favorite series but the massive twist at the end has me frothing to see where this new direction leads.

Too short!

Nooooooooooo! It’s over way too soon and just when everything is so exciting. Great story and such an awesome new twist. Can’t wait for more. Thank you

Amazing performance carrying a confusing story

I've really enjoyed the series, but don't really recognize it anymore. Most of the story's origins feels abandoned and unfinished. I get that the author is taking us into a new arc, but it feels premature and forced. Exploring the new universe is appealing but I wish things in the existing universe were wrapped up before diving into another journey. It would also be amazing if the MC wasn't constantly hobbled every time he gains new powers. His progress is starting to feel pointless, because it's assumed his new powers will either be nullified by the environment or someone will injure his new ability and take it off the table. Why bother giving him new powers just to take it away a moment later ?

Hopefully the next book brings things to a conclusion. I've enjoyed the journey but it feels played out

Again come on

Why does he loose his powers almost every book. It was ok the first couple times but now it’s getting ridiculous. It seems like the series is turning into the same book over and over again, but him and another realm. This is sad because it’s such a great character, and I know with other hooks that the author can do better.

One Arm Tied Behind Their Back Hero Trope

Love the series overall, but getting very unsatisfied with the classic hero could beat up the bad guy but his powers aren’t all working trope. Please switch it up!

Sift Made Me Weep wtf

I have been binging this series and have loved every one so far. I rarely leave a review but Sift's discourse on pie hit me hard. Bravo

This is a game-changer.

You know, I followed the entire book on Patreon and already knew what to expect, but it was thoroughly enjoyable listening to it all at once with Travis Baldree's performance. The Tenth Muse is now among my top favorites in the series. Although they are all very enjoyable, if I had to pick my absolute favorites, it would be a hard choice between The Sixth Rune, The Tenth Muse, and The Seventh Step. The Sixth Rune and the Seventh Step because that's when I really think Ruwen came into his own; demonstrating his growth in mind-buggling ways. Then the Tenth Muse because it just flip-over the game board. Just great story-telling. Thank you so much for writing this series.

All Gas no breaks

Constantly progressing and calling back previous situations. A.F. Kay is really using all his world building. Excited to see where this goes
