Mark of the Fool 5

By: J.M. Clarke

Narrated by: Travis Baldree

The Fool has been hunted. But he must become the hunter.

Accompanying an expedition of wizards, Alex has proved himself against the dangers of Greymoor, calling upon summoned servants to defeat the Ravener’s hunters. But with the death of his pursuers, no answers are apparent, only more questions.

And now Alex, the Heroes, his cabal, and the mighty Baelin seek answers in the ancient Crymlyn swamp, which the Sage of Thameland calls home.

But other eyes also watch the Crymlyn. Evil eyes. Demonic eyes.

And the Ravener is far from done with Alex.

For it has yet to call upon its more powerful servants....

Book five of the best-selling series. Continue your fantastical journey into a coming of age magic academy fantasy with a weak-to-strong progression into power, deepening mystery, a setting inspired by D&D, detailed world building and magical science, action, comedy, slice-of-life, and GameLit elements.

excellent

excellence in all aspects. the story, the character arcs and the mysteries are all beginning to make something truly excellent.

My word

Like always the author takes us on a thrilling adventure of discovery in a world that keeps getting better! I can’t wait for the next book in the series!!!

Suggestion

Alex should totally break the news of Claygon's awakening in book 6 by having him introduce himself like it was a joke and then Claygon actually goes "Hello Uncle Thundar" etc. leaving them all shocked to their cores like Alex was. Would be totally in character and super funny 🤣

Great Progression

I’m loving the incremental growth of all characters, not just the MC. I feel that the pacing of the plot and growth is spot on! Loving this series!

Still Good - But hoping to wrap up within a few books…

The series is still entertaining. But i’m hoping this doesn’t turn into another 9, 10, 11, 12 or so long series that begins to drag on while accomplishing nothing.
