Zorian Kazinski is woken up by his sister, argues with his mother and takes the train to school for his third year. The first month is perfectly normal until the summer solstice approaches and he dies. Only to wake up on the first morning before the train. Again. And again. And again.

The Quatach-Ichl's soul attack has left the boys damaged and disrupted the start of current the time loop. Zorian is stuck without his magic and Zach is in a coma and has been stashed away by his guardian, Tesen. Zorian's going to need all his brains to find a plan that solves their current problems and fixes all their future ones.

This was an epic conclusion to the series. Zorian plots and plans and schemes to find the best outcome possible for them all and I adored it. His expansion into creating simulacrum's was hilarious - I loved their petty and bitter personalities - all looking to mess with the original. It got a bit insane with Zach's deal with the angels though. I'm a bit over angels to be honest. But it was bearable. The break of the time loop was intense. It was a bit sad and a lot crazy. I liked that they got out. I would've liked for them to be able to bring everyone with them though. On the other hand I didn't love the existential crisis this series has given me.

The world building is incredibly imaginative and insanely detailed. The characters are entertaining and vivid and the plot is breathtaking in its scope. Overall this series was an absolute pleasure to consume and is well deserved of its place as a prized gem of the progression fantasy genre. 5 stars.… (plus d'informations)

Zorian Kazinski is woken up by his sister, argues with his mother and takes the train to school for his third year. The first month is perfectly normal until the summer solstice approaches and he dies. Only to wake up on the first morning before the train. Again. And again. And again.

With limited time remaining, Zorian, Zach and their allies push to learn all they can while trying to find a way to stop the ancient primordial being from destroying the world. But they need to learn more about their souls and there's only one person they know who specialises in souls - the Quatach-Ichl.

After finding that Red Robe has left the time loop. The boys are disheartened and unsure if either of them will be able to leave. Like I love the storyline but I also hate the whole existential crisis it's kind of given me. Zach being tested by Xvim was hilarious and I loved how Zorian makes plans to pool all their resources and have everybody build upon their research over the time loops - even if they can't remember it. Plus Zorian once again finding a cruel and relentless teacher (Quatach-Ichl) for his new topic of study was hysterical.

Like the first two books this was fast paced and action packed. There's so much going on my brain was spinning and I was loving it. Zorian's come far as a person as well, learning to be nicer and relate better to others. Zach still annoyed me at times though.

Zorian Kazinski is woken up by his sister, argues with his mother and takes the train to school for his third year. The first month is perfectly normal until the summer solstice approaches and he dies. Only to wake up on the first morning before the train. Again. And again. And again.

Zorian had largely gotten the hang on the time loop but the discovery of a third time traveller and the disappearance of his allies has left him floundering. Unsure if he's been discovered, Zorian tries to keep a low profile and learn as much as he can while trying to form new plans to save the world.

Like the first book this is action packed. Zorian has plans and projects and is constantly busy trying to improve his knowledge and I loved it. I was disappointed that Novelty is gone and the aranea don't seem to be coming back. but I loved the new characters that were brought onboard and the new discoveries Zorian made. Xvim and Alanic were awesome and it was hilarious how Zorian manages to pick hardass teachers without fail. I didn't love Zach to begin with but he grew on me as the book progressed.

Like the first book, this one ends on a cliffhanger. I'd be annoyed if the books weren't already published but it's a logical break that's wrapped up all the current mysteries before pushing on with the next. That said, I liked time travel better. The idea of a copy of the world just fucks with my mind.

Zorian Kazinski is woken up by his sister, argues with his mother and takes the train to school for his third year. The first month is perfectly normal until the summer solstice approaches and he dies. Only to wake up on the first morning before the train. Again. And again. And again.

I adored this. Zorian Kazinski is the fkn bomb. Plans upon plans. Devious, stubborn, determined, it's perfection. I love a good fanfiction with a time loop so it's not really much of a surprise I loved this. That said, I've only recently learned these progression stories exist outside of the realm of fanfiction. But they do and I'm finding them immensely satisfying. Something about reading about a character getting things done and winning at life just works for me. Granted, this is only my second series and apparently this is the pinnacle of the genre - so it's probably all downhill from here.

But Mother of Learning was an epic read. Zorian was a boss at accumulating knowledge and skills and although he was somewhat reserved at the start, I love how he comes out of his shell and begins to cultivate relationships with other people. I loved Zorian's sister, Kirielle and I loved Novelty (the large talking telepathic spider who helps to train him ). The meeting between them was hilarious. I loved how the aranea work with Zorian to disrupt plans and create a trap for the third time traveller. I really hope they're not permanently dead. They were my fav.

This ends on a major cliffhanger, but it's built up so well that I can't help but feeling like it ended exactly where it should. I think I'd be feeling less appreciative though if there weren't already three more volumes to read. Overall this was freaking incredible and has me hooked. I can't wait to read more. 5 stars.… (plus d'informations)
