Keiran clawed his way from gutter rat to archmage in his first life.

His second was supposed to be easier...

Keiran of the Night Vale has staved off death for two thousand years. His mind and his magic remain as sharp as ever, but his body is old, worn out, and failing. What he needs is to reincarnate into a new, young body, and he bends his prodigious talents towards doing exactly that.

He awakens to find that he’s been reborn in a wasteland where mana has become a scarce resource. Even the internal mana generated by people is stolen away by those who rule them. And without mana, he’s no longer a mage.

It will take more than that to stop Keiran. With each passing week, he regains more of his old strength, but can he keep his secrets safely hidden? Standing in his way is his new home’s cult-like nightly mana tithing, a governor with deadly secrets, and a monster-ridden desert.

It's a deadly scramble to claim the mana he so desperately needs to survive, but Keiran didn’t become an archmage by accident.

He’s willing to use every dirty trick and tactic he knows to get there again.

I enjoyed it well enough. Definitely not for everyone as it isn’t the most exciting or original story but I found it enjoyable.

Pretty Good

That’s the vibe you want this is for you. I’m a little old to really feel like all the “hard decisions” are earned. I was expecting the whole time that the world ended up ending because of MCs attitude somehow but that’s not it I think. Not as bad as some by far. I just am in a different point in my life.

Alone against the world.

I loved the magic and voice actors were so good.
story was bit weird and I have trouble with visualzing a three year old doing it tho.

well done magic system

Powerful mage reborn into a child's body and having to grow up again. Reactions are a bit odd at times, but I think the narrator does a great job

odd, but fun
