Magic Eater #3
Settle
Tad has learned more about his past, but he still doesn't know if one side or the other would imprison or kill him simply for existing. Those who know more refuse to tell him more, but share his concerns.
Now though, it's time to move forward. He may not know what it means to be a fey but his goal remains the same, namely to open a shop and sell magical items.
To get there though, he has a dungeon to master, errant nobles to defy, and the Lawgiver's gaze to avoid.
Chaos is in his blood, and he's certain to bring it wherever he goes.

Great magic, Subpar Critical thinking
The only reason I can’t give the book a 5 is because the MC is kind of dim. What makes it worst is the author is obsessed with adding more followers but none of his now 10s of advisors give any useful advice.
No one points out it’s not good to negotiate with terrorist. Why keep a trait that’s bound to the whims of someone deplorable. If he decided too keep the trait and stay prey to the voice okay,the fact that no one brings up the issue is annoying.
Everyone and their baby moms is looking for a enchanter and the first thing you do is go to a major town not far from the last place everyone is tracking you and sign up for a continent spanning organization using your real name. Then proceed to set up an enchanting shop selling things you can’t find anywhere else. Like the bad guys know and are looking at a minimum for an enchanter. No one preaches caution or that it’s a bad decision.
I love the OP aspect of the MC but if his life isn’t uprooted within the first two chapters of the next book it will have. Fallen prey to the failure of incompetent adversaries. Like you have a contingent of elves and tree people. They are not inconspicuous on any level. A halfway intelligent opponent would find him and his people in a heart beat.
I love the shop route but it’s not feasible and one of the few good prices of advice he has received. There will be no quiet life for him.

Tad gets in even more trouble...
I am very much enjoying the adventures of Tad and company. He is surrounded by competent women of various species, and yet views them as sisters and friends. Not too surprising, given his age. As a fey, he has a lifetime in the thousands, so 20 is barely grown.
There is a lot of adventure, some violence, lots of cool crafting, tons more personal growth, and travel to exotic locales.
No typos, excellent world-building, fun characters, and good writing. I recommend for anyone aged 13 and up, mostly for violence. Solid 9 unicorns rating.

Book relies too much on AI writing.
Unfortunately, this book was either partially written by AI or else the author(s) have soaked up too much AI writing themselves, because many passages are structured in that floral, nonsensical way that comes specifically from a few LLMs. I ran some of the text through AI detectors and it came back strongly positive.
I don't begrudge an author using the tools available to them well, but this wasn't used well. Unfortunately it reads cheap and lazy, which is disappointing, because I was quite enjoying this series. This book is a let down.

I have really enjoyed adventuring with Tad. There is enough development and expansion of the story that has kept me interested. The world build is just enough to give me the picture without getting tedious long. I also appreciate that I don't have to read multiple pages giving me his thoughts before he acts on them. His struggles with not knowing everything about his family history and what that entails keeps me intrigued. I could go one but... January can't get here fast enough.

Disappointed
Not anywhere as good as the first two. This one seemed to be even more plot device driven and the MC looses even more agency. Lastly there are two things that for me that make it hard for me to want to to continue. First is the becoming a dungeon. I'm not really interested in reading about a human having to kill his fellow humans to level up. Second is the continued push to say that evil is not evil, it is just a different way of doing things.

Yeah it just gets worse
Yeah I couldn't finish the book, I was kipping so much it just wasn't worth it. The books read more like a dry tech manual and glosery than an actual story. There is no real dialogue and if there is its minimal, the characters lack any depth as you really don't see much of anyone other than an attempt give the reader the feel that this about people not just things happening as a main focus and people happen to be part of it.

Fantastic series continues
This is one amazing and fast paced addition to the Magic Eater. The premise for the story are unique and different from the standard trope (at least for).
Following Tad and is growing group is a lot of fun as he grows into his heritage.
Looking forward to the next one already.

Sean's done it again.
As always an action packed deep interesting story and world that wonderfully scales to keep it tense and interesting. Can't wait to continue the story in the future.

December 9, 2025DNF. Perhaps I'll come back to it someday but for now I cannot stand slogging through more chapters of the MC doubting everything he does that isn't enchanting items and choosing to ignore all the steps he'll have to take to achieve his goal of owning a shop.

Very good read
I enjoyed reading this book and I recommend this book to anyone who likes LitRPG and progression types of books with lots of action.

Great book
Really like the way this story is developing. Tad is not OP, though he does have some OP powers. I cannot wait to read the next book.
