He's Not Just Breaking the Rules Anymore. He's Teaching a Masterclass in It.

A reincarnated evil lord knows the value of a good tool. At the Arcane Academy, Daren Morin has found a toolkit of broken misfits, and he's ready to start building his arsenal.

His goal isn't just to survive his second life; it's to dominate it. He offers them secrets and forbidden power, demanding a price they don't yet understand. Then, the game changes.

A routine competition becomes a deadly dungeon crawl—an unexpected trial by fire.

For everyone else, it's a fight for survival. For Daren, it's the first battle in the war only he knows is coming, and a chance to see if his investments will pay off.

As they grow stronger under his cold guidance, they begin to see him as a savior. A dangerous mistake. Because when the time comes, Daren Morin will cash in his investment, and the entire academy will pay the price.

Join Daren in his journey to power once again. For fans of Progression Fantasy, Magic Academy, and cunning Antiheroes who play to win.

The evil has a good side and he doesn’t even know it. Worth the listen looking forward to next installment

Ohhhh! Man! Freakintastic! I've actually given up trying to categorize Daren... he a complex 18 year old with a two hundred year history. Get the series, you'll figure it out! I don't believe he's as evil as he makes out. He's just a student and beginning to trust some of the other kids that have asked for help due to his own unique abilities! And yeah Daren is a bit of a jack to those that have been bullies. He won't take guff from anyone including teachers. And wow do I love auctions! There's just something about the high stakes and high energy that happens at an auction. Then yeah there's the tournament... and this year they've included students from a rival academy... boy talk about gearing up the pulse-pounding edge-of-your-seat action. Get the book better yet grab the audiobook because it's all there for y'all. And you'll definitely need to dive into book three!

Just Freakintastic! I love Daren as he powers-up in this tale!

Magic system is extremely interesting, the characters that do have any flushing out are pretty interesting but I’ve found that most of the characters fall flat and feel pretty one dimensional. Plot has a lot of potential. Dialogue feels a bit awkward most of the time and could use some polishing. Overall decently satisfying read

Good enough

this entire book was edgelord cringe, and it's only made worse by being voiced by Matt Hicks. Every time Matt does anything other than his normal voice and cadence it's pure cringe. Erin Bateman was fine but her accents get old very fast.

matt hicks was the perfect choice for this book. (in the worst way)
