This is a really enjoyable fantasy/magic series. If I'm being honest, I was slightly concerned that it would be some form of Harry Potter Lite, but it could not be further from that. In truth, the author does a great job incorporating a magical world into the real world, rather than as a separate entity with little overlap. "Wizards with cell phones" works as a concept in a way that I did not fully expect! One of my favorite things about this series is that the pacing is well done. Each book moves at a different pace, and doesn't follow the standard tropes of a lot of YA fiction writing. As I was listening to the audio book, I often found myself surprised at when climactic battles took place, or when action continued past what I thought was the logical ending of that part of the story. This was always done in a very logical and well-written way, which led to the series surprising me repeatedly. The narration was wonderful, the characters endearing, and the world building happened at a great pace. I highly recommend this series!

Bryant and his friends go on a epic journey after finding out he is a wizard. This series was a fun and hilarious read, I listened to the audiobook version and the narrator did a great job bringing the story to life. Even though the audiobook is over 29 hours long, the story is so fast paced it seemed to fly by, they very little down time. The characters are snarky and totally relatable. They are having to deal with typical teenage problems while also they trying to navigate the world of magic, or yeah and they have to save the magically world while they are at it. I would recommend this series!
