Publisher's summary

Magic has been dead for centuries...until a teenage boy stumbles upon the secret to unlock new powers.

After being attacked, chased and poisoned, 16-year-old Terren is left for dead lying at the bottom of a steep cliff. As he lies on the brink of death, staring up at a blue and peaceful sky, something strange begins to happen to him...somehow he has completed the forbidden Ritual which affords him access to magic that has been lost for hundreds of years.

These powers are old and unknown, and the boy takes it upon himself to learn about these new abilities. His quest will take him through dangerous locations that haven’t been touched in centuries. His enemies follow close behind, unwilling to let the new Mage go free.

He won’t have to go it alone though, since now he knows the Ritual, and can bestow magic upon those he deems worthy. With his new companions, a goofy teen who always has a joke ready, a spy from a magicless Mage cult, and a mountain of a man who goes pale at the sight of anything magical, they turn to take on the kingdom who has imprisoned their lands for hundreds of years.

As Terren gets closer and closer to his goals, there are evil forces at work...those who lurk in the shadows who have striven to keep the secrets of the past buried...and they aren’t too keen with some snot nosed kid returning magic back into the world.

Surprisingly good

I've never read anything written by Bradley Allen, and lately, I haven't been a fan of teen and young adult books, but this one surprised me. The story was very engaging and captivating. I found myself looking for any opportunity to finish listening...walking, working, bathing, cleaning, cooking, anything, anytime, anywhere because I had to know what would happen next. The narration is well done without the annoying over acting or trying to mimic the female voice. I am really excited for the next book in the series.

Great Story

The story is great. It took a little to really get into it. At the beginning the narrator sounded super excited and it was hard to get past not knowing what was background information and what was dialog (internal or external). It was also hard to discern different characters dialog in the beginning, but it got better as the story progressed. Overall a good listen!
