Summary

Upon returning to Valia after his journey to Caelford and the Unclaimed Lands, Corin Cadence is confronted with a familiar foe—his own father.

While his strength has vastly increased since his last encounter with Magnus Cadence, Corin knows that he’ll need every trick at his disposal—and maybe a few new ones—if he wants to survive a duel with his father intact.

While Corin struggles with his family, his friends must face a second year at Lorian Heights with new classes, familiar but new chancellor, and deadly new enemies both on and off the campus. But school itself is the least of their worries. As the year progresses, the nation of Valia faces new travails at the emergence of a mysterious faction targeting attuned commoners and foreigners.

Casualties mount as Corin’s allies seek to unmask the leadership of this deadly order—and discover a threat that they cannot hope to face and emerge unscathed.

The Silence of Unworthy Gods is the fourth book in the Arcane Ascension series, a progression fantasy epic that mixes dungeon crawling and magical school content. This book also references events from the Weapons & Wielders series up to Book three, a connected series that takes place several years earlier with some overlapping cast members.

OK story that has gone far from what it started as

I really enjoyed this series. But the last 3 books have been plodding and listless.

The main character hasn't advanced in his main goal for 3 books.

the side characters are often forgotten. To the point where a character who was maimed in the last book doesn't have her injuries even commented on.

the author is falling into a pattern with all 3 of the series I've read of him. treading water with the plot and a directionless main character.

performance is very good, probably wouldn't have finished the book otherwise.

Amazing work, but 😑

Love the series and this book too, although it feels a bit! Like a filler. And the last 2 hours are, in my opinion, a joke. And if you take every character in consideration and how they act it is even worse… It feels forced … But I am still excited for the next book and maybe it will explain why all this happened the way it did…

lack of plot

wait for book 5

this is a middle book, and mainly a training montage. Really wish I'd waited.

I few things happen in this book, but Andrew went a little far with the monologues and prep. and not far enough with scenes involving characters interacting.

Think you need to come straight from books 1-3 and into 4-5 for this book to feel good.

Amazing finish can’t wait for book 5

Overall fantastic book. MC is always challenged and progresses well. Frustrated sometimes at some preachy chapters that feel like ethical lectures. Sera could take more of a back seat also. I understand she’s the little sister character but she often is just an annoying hypocrite.

Please less of the morality lessons and more action. Your listeners/readers can judge morality for themselves.

But overall loving Corrin’s growth, he’s becoming a true badass. Love him and will return for him. Please make the gang all his retainers, he doesn’t want to lead but he should, best character by a mile.

Excellent

Developed several plot lines which was great. I enjoyed the sociopolitical aspects as well. Looking forward to the next one.

Giving up

While this series started well it has stalled. The original plot, a boy setting out on a plan to rebuild his broken family using knowledge and creativity as his weapons was a good one, getting mixed up in larger world affairs and then ... well there have been 1 book that sounded like a training montage and this one where none of their earlier story arcs progress at all. What happened to the brother? what about the impending war? the missing visage? the raging dragon? ::minor spoiler::It was good to see the main character get some pay back on his abusive father but that seems to be the only progress this story sees.

this is the last book I will be getting from this series. if you are more invested then I will say the series may come back with something good but I think the author has gotten lost in world building syndrome as his other series seem to show.

amazing world building

loved the story and believe it has great world building with potential to be opened up even more, with this book building more on the idea that the country and it's dedicated to the divine may not be as in people's best interest as it seems. can't wait to see how it expands into other areas such as Edrea and the wider world which the series is clearly angling towards going to at some point.
