About this listen

Perry Z has a Magical Destiny.

Born to a Magical Fantasy Princess and a nine-to-five Supervillain in the most superhero riddled city in the world, Perry's never felt...adequate. He's got no talent for magic, and not a scrap of superpowers to his name.

When The System boots and unlocks his powers, it forces him to follow in his father's footsteps, but he'd rather take after his mother...

Maybe there's a way he can do both...

Crammed full of goodness

What a great audiobook! The story and characters are really strong. It felt like you had three or four books in one, as characters and plots continued to develop and evolve. The teenage perspective works well and the gives a great angle for learning all of the workings for this world. It's definitely great value and keeps your attention.

The performances were strong as well, I really enjoy SBT (the group who recorded this) as you although you get a main peformer, you get a number of other voices that help keep the story clear and more natural.

Can't wait for book 2.

Instantly loved

This series was one I sank into right away, I like the action and the setting. I already can’t wait for the next one.

Also it goes without saying Soundbooth Theater and all involved were great!

An amazing author

I love this author. His books seldom disappoint, and the voice cast is excellent. I only wish the book was longer

overall a good read

overall this book is a good read, it's funny and engaging, the only issues i have with it are small things like how the author insists on reciting the recipe for every spell cast for the first time, even in the middle of what is supposed to be an action packed fight scene, this slows it down, especially in chapter 75 where the heroes opponents cast like 10 unique spells, and is unnessessary as either we don't see them cast again or the mc does learn them at which point the author can just write the bloody recipe in at that point.

tl:dr good book, minor gripes

Fun characters and world building.

It's a classic caped superhero setting but very well thoughtout. protagonist is likeable and smart in a believable way. resourceful but can be reckless.

Technological magic begins

This is a great story! Perry's struggles at the start with his inability to use magic as he has wished since childhood.

The author has done a great job in fleshing out the world of supers, adding politics and differences in polices between different cities.

The narrators at SBT does a great job, the voices for each character fits their personality and makes then easy to differentiate! Can't wait for more!!

A Fun intro to the world of Litrpg

It’s my first time reading/listening a litrpg book and my only regret is that I didn’t start earlier. Perry and the rest of the characters were such a fun bunch. Their interactions really brought the book to life, especially the banter between Heather and Perry. The world of industrial strength magic is the type of chaotic fantasy world I’d wanna live in if I had the right set of abilities.
Enjoyed the performances, sound track and sfx which all book that much more of a joy to listen to.

Can’t wait for the sequel and more crazy adventures.

Light hearted and surprisingly fun

Lots of giggles from this one, nice and light. Superheroes theme is clear - kinda like if the boys was a litrpg. SBT full cast makes this one into something incredibly special.

A garage full of laughs

Not my normal genre being in the superhero theme but i found this surprisingly fun and was laughing my head off at times. its a blend action and witty humour from the start to the end that any comic book fan would love.

Genuinely Hilarious

I had this going in my ear at work and frequently got side eye for smiling and laughing

Story and humour pulled me in quickly and the quality of the performance made for easy long listening sessions

Get this if you’re interested in a creative magic system with both goofy and serious applications
