A review by iam_griff
Mage of No Renown by Kel Kade

3.0

I enjoyed this book as I found Wesson to be an interesting character while reading Kade’s series “King’s Dark Tidings”. I do like origin stories as well, but I couldn’t give this book a higher rating just because the amount of whining & pleading that went on in this story. I understand that Wesson was traumatised when his powers manifested, but the extent that every adult wanted him to go “this way” & Wesson wanted to go “that way” became a bit tedious after a time. How Wesson compensated for his powers was brilliant & even while attending the battle academy his technique for standing up for himself was perfect. This book had some good points & if there’s a sequel that comes out later I will read it as I do enjoy Kade’s writing style.
