About this ebook

Book One in the Mages of Martir series

Thirty-five-year-old Darek Takren always did his best to keep up with the demands of the prestigious North Academy, a magical school where only those with the drive to succeed are allowed to learn. Having lived in the school for his whole life, Darek Takren sees North Academy as his home, a sanctuary safe from the troubles that plague the outside world.

But when his best friend is injured in an unexpected attack on the school, Darek Takren's struggle to uncover the attacker's identity leads him into a much deeper scheme that, if successful, will spell the end not only for the school, but for the whole world and the gods themselves.

And he may not have what it takes to stop it.

I thought the story flowed well without being overly wordy. A little slow in spots. Would appeal to fans of Harry Potter. I found myself frequently staying up later than I wanted to in order to finish the next chapter. Overall a good book and worth reading

The overall story of the book must be semi decent due to all of the positive reviews but I couldn't bring myself to finish it because of how poorly it is written. The world is imaginative but badly shown, mainly through big info dumps. These info dumps are usually pointless as well, with nothing to offer to the overall story. The grammar was basic with simple errors here and there and the writing seemed to switch between first person and third person. The book is short and a very simple read, but I wouldn't recommend reading it if you are over the age of thirteen. The book strikes me as the author's first, there are good ideas but their writing skills wasn't at the level required to show them off.

Good ideas but really badly written with awkward dialogue that bounces between modern slang and archaic.
