Publisher's summary

After sealing the otherworldly portal, Eric becomes a Magister of the order of monster hunters. From now on, as head of the once mighty organization, he gains power over all its riches.

But Eric is aware that he won't be able do it on his own. And reviving what is popularly referred to as "the dead order" won't be enough. He also has to assert its right to exist because its ancient enemy is on the lookout!

Very soon the Steel King will realize that his plan to get back the Crown, a most powerful artifact and symbol of the royal dynasty's authority, has failed. Need it be said who will suffer all his wrath?

Eric realizes a great battle is coming, one like those described in the ancient chronicles. He also realizes that in the upcoming showdown he will need loyal and powerful helpers at his side. And thus, after defying Darkness, Eric's path takes him to the Undermountain Kingdom of the Gnomes. According to ancient legends and tales, that is where he will find Gramner the Fourarmed and convince the great blacksmith to perform the hatching ritual in the Forge of the True Flame.

I got to give the author his due.

Everyone does a lot of hiccuping, and the main character really makes a point to give everyone their due. good read.

short but still good

sir that was incredibly short, but still entertaining none the less. i was craving more and was shocked when it ended lol.

the overly formulated speech patterns are starting to get rough tho. if u read this author. plz think about shaking up the speech patterns a little. less over use of particular phrases and more individual ways of speaking between characters.

still a really awesome addition tho. keep it up champ. cant wait for the next one

Awesome!

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite series. If I had one wish to make of the author it's that he made them longer. I could very much enjoy these books being twice as long.

I like how some loose ends were tied off. it looks like another set of books being launched for the coming war?????? short book but still worth a credit... your choice

Good story,

setting, characters, etc, but, most likely because of the translation, the dialog is so awkward and cringey sometimes. A better translator is needed.

Great Story, audio portion needs work

Sounds like there were only two distinct female voices. They need to hire a dedicated voice actress for the female characters so they don't almost all sound the same.
