Summary
Not a legend. Not a protector. Not even a sorcerer. Tarak was just fine with that until, in a single day, his whole world was taken from him.
Tarak is thrown into a strange city with just a few coppers in his pocket and the tainted shadow of his family following him. At least the ale is better, but famine and poverty make it a little hard to enjoy that. With no one to call his friend and almost no knowledge of sorcery, Tarak will have to compete with the best sorcerers if he wishes to remain free.
Tarak has done a pretty good job of avoiding what his single-minded father called his "destiny" for seventeen years, but now his identity is revealed, and it's drawing more attention than a tear through the rump of his pants.
It's looking like an uphill road, but there are some major bonuses. It turns out sorcery is not as complicated as his father made it seem, and not every sorcerer has to be as virtuous as the old dog.

Took the chance and don't regret it
I won't try to pretend this was the best fantasy book i have heard, but it was a fun and at times laugh at loud book that ticked alot of my boxes, the one thing i did enjoy alot was the magic system and can't wait to see it expanded on.
Overall this was a great, easy to follow book that would be suitable for people not looking for a billion page high fantasy that has 500 characters and so many intertwining paths that it may as well be a maze.
tldr: I ended up enjoying it alot and cant wait for the next.
