Ashes of the Empire

Keiran: The Eternal Mage, Book 3

De: D.E. Sherman

Narrado por: John Joseph Rogers, Rylee Kuberra

It’s been four years since Keiran learned the truth of what happened to his world.

Four years of research and marshaling his resources, four years of experimentation in a futile attempt to recover a faint echo of all that has been lost. His refuge has grown in size and population, and he’s begun to spread knowledge of the old ways of magic in an attempt to revive the lost art to humanity.

There are no more answers to be found at home, and it’s time Keiran sees what’s out there with his own eyes. Armed with more mana than ever, he leaves his sanctuary to explore what’s left of the old kingdoms of the world and plumb their depths for lost secrets.

What he finds is a civilization wrapped up in mysteries and lies, ones that could threaten to break the world a second time.

Keiran will have to untangle it all before it’s too late.

Ugh...

His sister is literally the worst... She needs to Exit stage left. Her character brings you out of the story as soon as she starts speaking. A whiny little brat that never grows into any semblance of maturity. Kill her off and give the protagonist something to fight for...

Solid addition with one caveat

A thrilling and engaging read that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The story offers a captivating mix of buildup, exploration, and mystery, with plenty of new and powerful challenges for the main character to overcome. The author has done a fantastic job of setting the stage for future events, leaving readers eager to see how everything unfolds in the next installment.

However, despite my love for the series, there is one downside: the older sister character has become quite tiresome and frustrating. Her presence detracts from the story to the point where I almost considered skimming through her sections. That said, this is a minor flaw in an otherwise fantastic series, and I’m looking forward to the next book.

Good

Good start and midway was good the ending was so so I do like the pace of the book I can wait to see what is next tho

Interesting

Idk why the last 1.5 hours was a different book but that was just disappointing. This series is decent though. The combat and action isn't the best but the mysteries, world and way the story is told have got my attention. The family dynamics and sister bring things down a bit but it's not a constant aspect or the story. The story flows nicely and there are things constantly happening with few distractions from the main story line. Many mysteries and questions I've felt that i wouldn't get an answer for until the end or even next book but the writer delivers and then hangs another apple out there that looks just as delicious. I'll be looking for the next book.

meh book

meh book. . . good narrator. . . probably will not get the next book in the series.
