Resumen del Editor

Don't miss the Wizard's Tower Books 1-3 Box Set, a LitRPG adventure about a cranky wizard who seeks solitude in orer to uncover all of the mysteries of magic.

The humans call me Nemon Fargus. They call me wizard, and [Elementalist] and [Enchanter]. They call me teacher. They call me adventurer.

But I don't care. Not anymore.

For more than 150 years I've served the Kingdom of Sena. Through four Kings and a Queen. Two wars and a rebellion. I've founded and taught at a magic school. I've fought against beast waves and dungeon breaks.

But now? Now, the one close friend I had left has passed. So, I'm done with their politics and their economics. The short and busy lives of humans are more burden than benefit on the weary soul of this half-elf.

Now, I'm looking for a refuge, a place that can well and truly be my own. Away from the growing cities and the bustling markets, away from the pointless wars, away from the eager students and the arrogant adventurers.

I'm seeking the peaceful life of a wizard in his tower, studying magic to advance my spellcraft...We'll see if that happens.

Experience this LitRPG Series Bundle from Gregory Allanther, the bestselling author of An Old Man's Journey.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The characters are interesting, the worldbuilding engaging, the magic enchanting, and the mystery deep."—Seth Ring

Relatable lead character kept me entertained.

Overall I really liked the books. The lead character was relatable, and the storyline was filled with just enough surprises to keep it from being predictable. Each book could have easily been twice as long to add character development and backstory, so I'm really hoping there will be some prequels and spin-offs someday. while there are references to tears of magic, and something called a sold scroll, there's nothing else that really ties it to a game based system, so I would say it almost doesn't even qualify as part of the recent rash of games turned into book form. There are a few that have gotten it right, but most get too distracting with that level of detail to interrupt a story. this seres idoes not have that problem, and I recommend it to anybody who likes wizard focused fantasy.

Funny, engaging and just very entertaining

Lovely gem! Good writing as far as I'm concerned and amazing performance by the narrators. Wizards, spelcraft the End of the Age and… couches and wars , carrots and gods, pants and hydras. ;)

Jeff Hayes makes everything great!

I really enjoy the nonchalant no nonsense bearing the mc has! Sure it's a little slow with the action but not every book has to be in your face nonstop violence. This book reads well and is definitely worth a listen.

this is a great series

loved it and hope it gets 3 more books as this part really feels like the beginning of a saga .

A Very Good Listen

It was serious, it was funny, it was very good.

I was given this audiobook for free and have voluntarily left this review

interesting story

it was a little slow at first, a lot of world building needed to take place, then carried on to an interesting story

Fantastic Performance and Interesting Story

Taking an already accomplished character and having him work his way through a fleshed out world instead is nice to see in the world of farmboys to heros and isekai. While the MC is undeniably an arrogant dude, he also earned it and I love the way his flaws are brought to the forefront, right before doing some ridiculous wizarding.

As always with a crew like this, the audio performance is exceptional. I doubt I have to tell anyone that the line up of narrators is almost unfair. While I'm not 100% this is a SoundBooth Theater production, i know jeff and justin do a lot of work over there and encourage anyone to check it out. The work their doing is bringing something special to audio books.

A grand story of world changing events and unnecessary discrimination of Carrots

good story the MC is what makes this story, although he fails in matters due to his Hubris and petty behavior. He looks out for those around himself and thinks of things cautiously for the most part. my only bickering about the story is how slow it can get at points, with the MC so self absorbed in his projects and the goings of life that the author makes the story drag for a bit, and or events happen that were avoidable... really rough seeing the MC just bottles everything after rightfully blaming himself for his errors. multiple times

Satisfying high fantasy, with a LITRPG sprinkle

Overall a very entertaining tale. I like the main character and most of the side characters. I'll pretend Lily doesn't exist.

A very well thought out world. The magic and plot were well planned. There were a few side plots that didn't seem like they ever went anywhere but as a whole, the story reads like a slice of life fantasy.

Main audiobook narrator is amazing. I personally find the female narrator grating, but her voice is clear if annoying.

While levels a la LITRPG exists, it's done in a low key manner and is very digestible.

good story terrible narration

I'm riding this with you with voice to text so apologies for them in spelling errors. the story itself is good. Jeff Hayes was good. Andrea Parks new was good. the main narrator though was just terrible. I ended up listening to the thing at 1 and 1/2 speed. just get through it quicker to feel like I didn't waste the credit. his voice was slow and monotonous and by speeding it up it only reached normally human speech levels for the most part, this book wrapped up really well, but I feel it's possible for there to be a fourth book in this series. there's enough plot hooks left on finished. if I had it to do over again I would have read these and never have listened to them. hope this helps
