I was lucky enough to be gifted this for a review

I like to always give indie books a try and this had a strong premise. However the execution was poor. The writing brushed over a lot of deeper moments between characters, the world felt a bit shallow (nothing they usually bothers me too much) but it was the short scenes that got me. Where there were moments to delve deep into the characters and friendships and motivations they were brushed across. I was told the MC could do this instead of going through the trials with him. It left me wanting. It made it hard for me to suspend my disbelief.

The story idea is strong and I have no doubt that this book has its readers. But for me I like more depth to my books therefore I had to call it quits in this.

If you love the idea of someone going to seek to become a wizard then this is for you

this was a fun read!

engaging characters, incredible world I want to know more off and the gods– i was laughing on occasions.

the characters all leapt off the page, and I love the disability rep in this. even the characters I didn't particularly like I ended up liking by the end.

the more I think about this book, the more I like it.

it was a straightforward story, one I had fun reading.
