About this audiobook
Marak has sworn to rule the world.
Marak is a sixteen-year-old farmer's son, innocent and ignorant—he spends his days working in the fields, dreaming of ruling the world.
When Sir Renatir, a wandering knight, agrees to take Marak on as his squire, Marak is thrust into a world of shadow and violence. He soon finds himself in an unfamiliar city, where a mysterious figure known as the exarch is gathering power . . .
If Marak is to survive this new world and fulfill his own dreams of power, he'll need to first become a knight, gather allies, and master the arcane arts.
The realm of Telemir is a lethal place, full of enemies, warring kings, monsters, and dangerous opponents . . .
But Marak is more dangerous, and he'll do anything to win.
Contains mature themes.

It’s pretty good. The protagonist doesn’t make much sense though. He seems to struggle with the arts and philosophy because he’s more logical minded yet when he argues ethics he says he views things from an emotional perspective? It just doesn’t make any sense, either you’re one, the other, or a combination of the two. I was expecting some magic in this but so far I haven’t seen a lick of it. Hopefully there will be more in the future.
