About this listen

When Malachi Baker stumbles into an offer of apprenticeship from the esteemed and powerful Occultist Orykson, he's left in shock and jumps at the chance to learn... Even if it means taking out a few loans.

Unfortunately, his new teacher sees him more as a tool than a student. He has set Malachi near-impossible goals before he becomes worthy of Orykson's full attention, and Malachi's innate power is only somewhat above average.

Worse, it turns out that Orykson has enemies more powerful than Malachi had ever imagined—and now their attention has landed solidly on him.

Torn between the mage who can offer him everything, and a strange old woman who offers him the chance to guide his own path, Malachi is left scrambling to find his purpose as a new mage.

You can expect slow-burn to power, slice-of-life, and queer content.

extremely meh.

auther seems to be leaning into gender fluidity, I think?

mc is presented to us as a male character, but comes off at times as being written as a female character in both their own thoughts and actions and how others interact with them. there is little consistency.

keeps going on about either putting on or removing their sports bra every time there is a costume change. feels real shoe horned in.

it reads as the writer not being able to decide what gender the mc should be so they did both at different times. either that or they changed their mind part way through and had crap editing.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
