About this listen
Keiran clawed his way from gutter rat to archmage in his first life.
His second was supposed to be easier...
Keiran of the Night Vale has staved off death for two thousand years. His mind and his magic remain as sharp as ever, but his body is old, worn out, and failing. What he needs is to reincarnate into a new, young body, and he bends his prodigious talents towards doing exactly that.
He awakens to find that he’s been reborn in a wasteland where mana has become a scarce resource. Even the internal mana generated by people is stolen away by those who rule them. And without mana, he’s no longer a mage.
It will take more than that to stop Keiran. With each passing week, he regains more of his old strength, but can he keep his secrets safely hidden? Standing in his way is his new home’s cult-like nightly mana tithing, a governor with deadly secrets, and a monster-ridden desert.
It's a deadly scramble to claim the mana he so desperately needs to survive, but Keiran didn’t become an archmage by accident.
He’s willing to use every dirty trick and tactic he knows to get there again.

interesting
The story isn't unique, it follows similar plots where the MC is reborn in a fantasy world and has some slow but catchy progression. The narration isn't bad, but it's impossible to distinguish between the exposition(in some places), internal thoughts of the character and dialog between characters.
I'm just finishing book 3 but I'm gonna stop here for now. The action got a bit repetitive and I can already see from the cover of book 4 how the story will progress.

My Manaaa
I'm leaving this review while I'm starting chapter 30. I've been enjoying it, it's a fun listen. The VAs are very good. My only problem is that the there's too much emphasis on mana cost for everything it's gotten so old and it's kinda annoying.
The MC being 3 years old physically and doing all this wonderous stuff is really jarring. As I haven't finished it yet, I'm hoping for a time skip.

Good Protagonist
Great plot, great VA, pragmatic lead. Maim character makes sensible decisions and isn't to emotional which makes sense since he's eons old.

Solid although slow to start
A solid book with an interesting take on magic. The mc is interesting and the world building is good. However, it did take a while to start, it’s almost like this entire book could have been considered down to a couple hours. Nevertheless, I did still very much enjoy this book. I hope the next one can pick up the momentum.

Mc overanalysing
Man in a toddler’s body and the, people’s stubbornness are a bit roughly thought out, but otherwise it’s a story. I would listen the next book for sure.

Great story
I really enjoyed this and I'm looking forward to next book, worth trying if your into the all powerful protagonist getting constantly underestimated.

Sounds
Only dislike the different background sounds when we switch between male and female and the volume between them
