Warlock

Warlock, Book 1

De: Daniel Kensington

Narrado por: Lewis Alexander, Rozelyn Rader

On my eighteenth birthday, I got kicked out of my home, mugged in an alley, and killed a guy with my mind ... then things got weird.

I expected aging out of the foster care system to be hard. I wasn't expecting it to include finding out I was a Warlock, destined to be hunted by the most powerful Witch Families so they could bind me to a coven of thirteen witches and spend the rest of my life "harvesting mana". Add to that a set of magical resonants that made me an even bigger target to some of those Witch Families, some of which would rather kill me than let a rival get me.

How's a warlock supposed to stay alive and free? Simple - just go to Witch College, find thirteen witches willing to be bound to you forever in your own coven, and learn enough magic to fend off the most powerful Witch Families in the world.

a kid from foster care

alot of the reviews I read are about how dumb the MC is. I am glad I didn't listen and purchased this book. As someone who has been in foster care and in the system this touched home for me. The MC has no life experience, no parents, no supports. He even states he has never been in the woods before. I get it 100 percent. It is actually what sold me on this book. He should be appear dumb and indecisive and make questionable decisions. He doesn't have all the answers because he starts off with little to no life experience and zero guidance coming from a foster home filled with 8 kids.

Great start looking forward to the next book

Over all the book is great. Narration is solid, slow burn build up no real action but the book was not boring at all in my opinion. Only con I can say is that so parts the MC is to unsure and reflects too heavily it becomes a little whiney but it’s not unbearable. I think it will become less common as the story progresses. Can’t wait for the next release

Great

Great story! I love that it is taking it’s time. The narrators are excellent as well. Can’t wait for book two.

Wonderful world and relationship building

The characters came alive and have taken up residence in my head. Can’t wait for the next book to come out early next year. The audio performance was also quite good and did not have and voices that grated on me even if they didn’t initially match the mental voice I had for a character.

It was really enjoyable to listen to

I was expecting more then the chapter would end. Sometimes it would pick up where the chapter ended and sometimes it wouldn’t

better than expected

I saw many reviews complaining that the MC is dumb....He is an 18 year old boy who grew up in a socially abnormal situation. I think people are setting expectations a bit high for him.
I chose this book before realizing it included the harem theme. Normally I hate these books and never end up finishing but this one has an interesting concept to explain the harem. I would have liked to see more struggle for the MC that wasn't self inflicted and less detail on his sex life with a "lesbian" roommate.

Thoroughly enjoyed this story.

Excellent characters, unique magic system, & a story that's enjoyable to listen to; this is one of my favorites.

great series

well written and strong characters along a great story line that keeps you engaged

More parallel than anti-Potter

I don’t listen to much fantasy but this was a nice change of pace. It’s hard not to view all stories about witches in a vs Harry Potter light but it is different enough to stand on its own.

Genre highnote

character development is top notch. thoroughly enjoyed it. immediately digested book 2. the voice actors are great and have great chemistry. would reccoment to friends who don't read h-lit
