About this listen
One thousand years ago, the Towers on the Isle of Wisdom were beacons of hope. Originally started to train sorcerers, clerics, and warriors to protect the Athanasian Realm, the Towers gave the people a sense of security against the enemies in the Tenebrosity Realm. But when the original Tower members left, that peace was shattered, and now, the Towers have fallen into a state of decline.
Now run by the Merila, the Mahatma, the Towers are not what they used to be. Magic users are practically impotent. The knowledge of the past has been hidden away, keeping everyone complacent and weak. Protecting the Athanasian Realm seems almost impossible now. When the current Luminary, Eliza, is poisoned and loses her powers, Merila appoints Eliza’s Second, Adicia, to the position. Adicia, though, isn’t quite as gullible and naïve as Merila thinks she is.
When things start spiraling out of control around the time of the Springtime Celebration, Adicia and he friends Tavis and Gara discover things aren’t quite what they seem. Orc attacks, ignored cries for help, and youth with magic abilities that haven’t been seen in years force Adicia and her friends on a quest to track down the only man who can help them. There’s only one problem - Garnrin is not only retired, he’s also the only one who can bring Merila down.
Adicia and her friends must fight rogue magic users, goblins, and hell hounds, all while trying to uncover the truth about the Towers, the Realm, and everything in-between. Can they bring the Towers back to their former glory, or will their quest lead to the destruction of the entire Athanasian Realm?

An Excellent Listen
The beginning is a little slow but once the novel gets into its stride the listener is swept along with the quest and intrigue around which the novel revolves. The characters and world in which they inhabit are wonderfully described. The narration in good and maintains a respectable pace. I look forward to the next book in the series.

Engrossing and total
This book involves a group of friends who have spent years becoming the best in their towers and have been elevated to tower leaders. What they are not aware of is that even though they are the best of their peers they are ill prepared for their positions.
The friends are on a quest and as they go forward they begin to get the feeling that all is not as it seems and they must seek out the truth. This story sucks you in and you find that the deeper you get the less you understand about the situation. The first few chapters were slightly confusing but the rest of the book just kept getting better and better. I had mixed feelings about wanting to get to the end but not wanting the story to be over.
The narrator took a couple chapters before I adapted to their voice. But once I obtained the correct listening rhythm it became quite enjoyable.
Overall an outstanding book and mesmerizing story.
