About this listen

Keiran clawed his way from gutter rat to archmage in his first life.

His second was supposed to be easier...

Keiran of the Night Vale has staved off death for two thousand years. His mind and his magic remain as sharp as ever, but his body is old, worn out, and failing. What he needs is to reincarnate into a new, young body, and he bends his prodigious talents towards doing exactly that.

He awakens to find that he’s been reborn in a wasteland where mana has become a scarce resource. Even the internal mana generated by people is stolen away by those who rule them. And without mana, he’s no longer a mage.

It will take more than that to stop Keiran. With each passing week, he regains more of his old strength, but can he keep his secrets safely hidden? Standing in his way is his new home’s cult-like nightly mana tithing, a governor with deadly secrets, and a monster-ridden desert.

It's a deadly scramble to claim the mana he so desperately needs to survive, but Keiran didn’t become an archmage by accident.

He’s willing to use every dirty trick and tactic he knows to get there again.

Interesting book, if you like these stories it will be enjoyable.

The Archmage Keiren "Sheldon Cooper," with his Asperger's, reincarnates to find that things did not go as planned. He must now pretend to be a normal baby. However, with his inability not to correct everyone around him, his cover is soon blown. Follow him as he continues to struggle with the fact that no one treats a three-year-old with the proper respect that an Asperger's archmage is due, as he continues to alienate himself from his community with the power of autism and always getting his way.

Great story telling

Great care and thought put into characters you actually care about, the MC is a highly pragmatic yet not overly cold person, written with well thought out motives and reasoning. I avidly await all future installments of this amazing series.

Kieran shall become a God.

description is fairly accurate. Be warned, he can sometimes not exactly act like a toddler. also don't assume he's the good guy superman type. More of a badass anti-hero, maybe a bit too pragmatic, but you don't get to 2000 years old without ruthlessly eliminating some threats.. xD 10/10 would read again.
