Youngest Son of the Black-Hearted

A Progression Fantasy Adventure

De: Alvin Atwater

Narrado por: Kyle Snyder

Am I the villain in a different coat of paint or just the bane of a corrupted empire? I wonder...

Around age twenty-seven, they finally caught me off guard. As the youngest son of seven, children of the most powerful duke on the continent and archmage at that, the world expected us to fight over the throne.

I tried to keep my distance. Rescind my role. Go about my merry way as people called me the trash of the Thunder family. After all, my magic wouldn’t work for some unknown reason.

Well, it turned out distance wasn’t an option for me.

As the arrows and spears sent me to my death, I couldn’t help but wish to do it all again.

Someone or something answered my dying thought…

It can turn the clock only once.

I found myself back nearly a decade to where it all happened. Only something was different. I could feel the building blocks of magic or mana, aura, and even the flame of Ki.

I also knew who ordered the assassination.

Very well, Third Brother. You want to play games with me? I’ll make sure to destroy everything you’re building, before crushing your throat.

I’ll go beyond just claiming the throne of our ducal province…

What to expect in this series:

-Progression/Cultivation as well as growing LitRPG elements and character development.

-Progression/Cultivation as well as growing LitRPG elements and character development.

-The MC's followers grow very powerful too.

-No harems.

And more!

Mr good book

very good book I like his other one the alchemy on two I wish you keep on writing it but this one is very good I like I'll get rid of it good voice on it I think if you like actions heroes and antiheroes you like this

Awesome

Really good story and nice pacing on the progression of the MC also I really liked his title but im biased because lighting/ thunder powers are my favorites.

Fun action filled adventure

This promises to be a good series if the first book is any indication. The characters' name similarity can cause a hesitation yet the narrator has a great way of distinguishing the characters apart. Thanks for that!
I'm looking forward to the next book.

Great listen

This book was pretty dang good. The main character learning from his past life and using it to make his new life better and fix mistakes was an adventure definitely worth listening to!

WAS A VERY INTERESTING STORY

IT FLOWED CAME TOGETHER WELL . IT WAS NOT CONTRIVED LIKE SOME TO MAKE IT SEEM LONGER

nice action

the story was cool, I just wish there were a few more chapters in the beginning dedicated to explaining the MC's life before his death. We get an overall generalization, at least that,s what it felt like to me, and the mc just kinda comes off as a cry baby. I get that he was mistreated, but it would be better to know that before versus whenever he sees people.

anyways it's still cool and I got the 2nd book!

Well done!

Wish it would have been longer but I like long stories! Not a lot of fluff just cuts through to give you the story. Looking forward to the next book! Narrator did a good job!

I love the exploitations of the expected tropes and the refusal to fall into them. Eventho I kinda wish they would

The story was fantastic, the mc didn't grow too fast but also fast enough for where the book ended. Im excited to see where this goes!

Fast progress and Time Loop - great start

The MC makes good use of his knowledge of the future, and the book is very fast-paced — no wasted chapters on fillers.
I also finished book 2, and it only gets better with the world expanding.

Amazing

This was entertaining from the beginning to the end , excellent character development. Great action I will definitely get the second book when it comes out.
