Book 3 of Wild Era.

Kelin Wildfire's new life is blazing with potential and he has a lofty goal: to become the Sovereign of Souls and the Lord of Reincarnation.

The path is long and deadly, but for an Archmage to be reborn, his sight should be set higher than it was before, which means establishing a foundation that will allow him to surpass the level of his previous life and seize true power.

It means conquering challenges he never considered, but he has the potential to remake himself until he is capable of burning through them all, even if it takes him centuries.

Now that he has dealt with the first problems, he is beginning to enjoy his new life, but a return to power is never without flaws.

He needs to explore the rest of Celadon, traveling far and wide to gather the experience he needs for his continued rise, as well as to face the enemies who want to stop him on the way.

Soon he will need to fulfill a quest that leads him to the Empire of Sarathia, a desert kingdom of ancient and wild power that has been tainted by the undead.

Dark rituals and followers seem to flow endlessly from the sands.

Nice OP protagonist getting more OP

I’m a fan of time reversal or reincarnation novels so this one was right up the alley. The protagonist was one of the most powerful and skilled magic users before he died, and that knowledge forms the basis of his power in his new life. This third installment in the series continues his growth as he is leaving his former friends and companions behind. I’m giving it four stars because there are occasional goofs (like rating a magic item as different grades from one page to another) and some of the combat wins have a deus ex machina feel to them.

A much better book than the second in this series. All that filler with the annoying party is left behind—no more hand-holding a bunch of side characters who really won’t go far in the story. In the last book, Kelin had to literally spoon-feed the party because they couldn’t kill a single mob in a dungeon, and that took way too long. But it seems the author noticed the problem and even addressed it in this book, with characters pointing out that what Kelin was doing was wrong: the party didn’t earn their power, so they would end up dying because of it, and this was just delaying his progression.

With this problem out of the way, the story flows much better—although there’s still a bit too much time spent in dungeons. The plot hasn’t advanced much, if at all. The only difference between the second book and this one, in terms of story, is that he gained a way to earn more stats than his level allows—like Sam did in the last series—and he now knows a bit more about the villains on that planet. Outside of that, nothing happened.

We’re on the right path, but I hope David focuses more on the plot in the next book. There’s a whole empire to explore, a cult with a lot of third-evolution-plus individuals, and an entire galactic war. Too many good ideas to waste in a dungeon killing mobs for XP. Don’t get me wrong—fights are not the problem—but there’s a difference between reading about the MC fighting a war for many chapters, trying to survive, win, or end the conflict, and reading about the MC killing a bunch of mobs that will just respawn in a few days. He doesn’t even close the gates; they’re just eternally there, waiting for the next bloke.

😁 Enjoyed

Can I say I'm a big fan of his work. Spoiler Alert: I really curious how he'll get space, time and death laws to go with the reborn law to create reincarnation. And if the MC race will change because his stats are miniscule compared to Sam how's he going to become a Sovereign.

Okay enough questions for the author, here's my review for the readers. This book didn't go very far but where he did go was all entertaining and engaging. If there is one criticism it's that each book should cover more, currently, it's looking like more than 14 books just to get him close to the seventh evolution. It hard to be creative and engaging or carry anyone's interests that long.

Anyways, yes I would recommend the series to other. It's unique in a genre where it's hard to be unique. It's adult, when most of the genre is written by man children. There is no romance so the story want turn melodramatic. So overall a good read.

Rating 4.0 stars

It started off just okay. OP MC goes on a lot of solo mission and gets stronger. There wasn't much suspense in the first 1/3 of the book. Granted, I like OP MCs but what I like the most is when other people are around and comment on how amazing that person is. I really love those "Holy Sh*t!" moments when the MC doesn't something he feels is normal but everyone is amazed. It is hard to have those moments when the MC is alone. At close to the halfway point, the story picked up. Kellen started fighting more powerful beings and there were some actual stakes involved. He was still fighting alone, but that added element made all the difference. Overall, this is a pretty good series, there are some things that I think would make it better but those are my personal preferences.

Ok

Well, I re-read this and lowered my first rating. Up to this book, it was a pretty standard regression plot where the stats didn't matter when the MC was fighting. Like all of the books in this genre, the MCs growth is both stunted and accelerated as compared to other characters and his level is always unbelievably lower than the things/people he fights. For every other character, the level difference would be insurmountable. For the MC, the author always uses dues ex to allow the MC to prevail. I lowered my rating because of the fights at the end in the dungeon. By the last fight I was rooting for the bad guy because I was tired of the dues ex. When my wish looked like it can through, the author did something that made me walk away from the book for almost a week. I don't know why I rated it so high the first time.

Not as good as Guardian of Aster Fall

I find it disturbing that so many author nowadays think overly detailed descriptions of endless fighting equates a storyline. While this series isn’t as bad as some, it’s irritating that you listen to all the details of the fights only for the ending to be so lackluster. This is a personal opinion and I knew what was going to happen before it happened. I just hoped I was going to be wrong. Nope.
I liked Guardian of Aster Fall series. It had a good mix up of storyline/fighting. It felt like there was some depth to the story. Wild Era - Hints at things but it’s not quite delivering the storyline.

Good but missing something

Big fan so I am reading on. The series has fallen into the trap of having an MC with too much OP. It means I don’t feel any real suspense or jeopardy in the plot and it feels more like a recounting of a story. I also don’t feel there has been much is any character progression in any one other than the MC. Everyone else is just an accessory.
Great crafting though and very detailed system and thought out plot. I want more depth though to the other characters and that the MC is really challenged and in peril. Need this juice.

Great balance of progression and solidifying foundations

I liked that Kelin worked on shoring up his foundations in this book, while still being able to progress. Interesting that the Sovereign warned him against gaining too much attention from Undeath, and yet, Kelin’s Path puts him in direct antipathy to Undeath and his minions. I especially love how Kelin continually uses the Laws of Undeath’s lieutenants to strengthen himself.

Beautiful

Another wondrous book.. One of my fav authors and this looks to be setting up mc as op power progression.... Mix of crafting and power leveling within shared world of his other series but with large advancement of time.
Highly recommend

Holy Crap! Wonderful! Beautifully executed Mr. North!

I keep David North on my shortlist of authors to read, and will immediately drop another book when anything of his is released. This addition to the series proves why this is the correct decision.
Deep character development, intense action, and detailed skill development and insight. What’s not to love?!

Close enough. Welcome back, Azarinth Healer

Interesting take on the magic system and the last half of the book fills the need nicely on additional progression that will set Kelin apart similarly to how Sam fought beyond his level in the last series. Loving what I’m reading and can’t wait to Book 4! (As of this review, Patreon has up to Chapter 4)

Another good one. Probably the weakest one plot-wise but some really cool advancement happens. I wish more of the story of this current arc was told in this book. It felt like the book ended abruptly. Maybe I’m just mad because I have to wait for the next book though. I am thoroughly enjoying this series.

Nice addition to the Path

As the second Epic era continues, this book provides a satisfying evolutionary volume. In its matrix, an internal reorganization and strengthening.
Good read, recommended.

Great book.

Enjoyed this book and the continuation of the story. I liked the additional information about the path and the universe. I love the idea of a path/system that is not evil and tries to help a person.

Wow keeps getting better

Love this series and author. This is more of the same progression. However the writing is on the wall for the MC. He will be alone. No one can keep up. This is the price of power.

Fantastic

I have enjoyed this enough to join David North’s Patreon, so I clearly have really liked it. Love the system, but also our MC who pursues personal power but strives for the betterment of those around him. Can’t wait for more.

Another excellent book!

The author has grown throughout this series. Less unimportant fights and a bit more summarizing dungeons. I can not wait for the next.
