Scorio will rise from the ashes to conquer the 10 layers of hell.

Reborn without memories, Scorio learns that he is a Great Soul, a legendary defender of the ancient city of Bastion. That within the hallowed halls of the Academy and under the stern eyes of the underworld’s greatest instructors he will enjoy enormous privilege, rediscover unique and wondrous powers, and one day return to the millennium-old battle against their infernal foes.

Until he is betrayed. Singled out and sentenced to die for crimes he can't remember, Scorio is hurled to his doom - and forgotten.

But from even the dimmest spark an inferno may one day rage.

Clawing his way back from oblivion, Scorio vows to return to the Academy at any cost. To emerge from the ruins and within those golden walls defeat his elite classmates in a quest to ascend the ranks and change the course of history. For only then will he learn about his forgotten past and why his enemies have rightly feared him since the day he was reborn.

In short, it's a good book. If you like epic fantasy, your gonna like this one.
However, it is a slow burn kind of story and it takes a while for it to get rolling. My big epic problem with the book is its lackluster main character.
He is well written and I am interested in the character, it's just that for the entire book he is absolutely useless and just wins all the struggles through luck and plot-armour. The last 2 hours of the book he finally wins through his own skill and effort but before that he just struggle to struggle.

I hope this will improve in the next book and we are over the out drawn struggle and underdog act of the series and actually get to se him do something cool and explore the world in the next one.

Interesting but slow.

Good book am looking forward to book two out next month. It’s set in a kind of hell with respawning hero’s who have a cultivation like progressive magic power system. The story is a bit like cradle, but set in a fantasy version of hell. The story is part western Wuxia part xianxia part western magic. The narration is great. The story is long but paced with a good cast of characters and with good dialogue.

Good book like cradle western xianxia
