Mystic Knight: Rising

The Mystic Knight, Book 2

By: Ryan Jackson

Narrated by: Robin Shay, Allen Ryder

Just when Aldric thinks things might die down a little for him, he's thrown back into the fire.

After crushing the dwarf, Torg Frosthammer, and bonding with Jordan, Aldric just wants to relax and enjoy the summer break before classes start again. But that is not his lot in life. An urgent summons comes from the Headmaster, and once there, Aldric learns that the Imperial Grand Magus is on his way to determine whether Aldric was justified in his actions with Torg.

Under normal circumstances, that was bad. For Aldric, it might be catastrophic. The Imperial Grand Magus is a legend, a mage bonded five times, stronger than any mage in the Empire. He has the ear of the Emperor himself. And he has a penchant for destroying those he views as a threat.

The meeting takes an unexpected turn, setting Aldric and his bonds on a course they're not sure they want to be on.

the story

I love this entire book except little parts messing up voice lines but it's a lot better in this one than it was in the first one but I will say because of the first book every time I saw a Jordan interlude it gave me anxiety I'm so glad they did her better she deserves better oh and I don't appreciate the cliffhanger I hate those lol can't wait for book three

Another good book in the series.

I’m on book two in this series and I’m looking forward to book three. I still enjoyed the banter of this one, even better than the first one. Twist at the end was really good.

I've given this book 13 chapters

i absolutely HATE mc's who have to be dragged kicking and screaming into the arms of a beautiful woman by all his many girlfriends
