Born a poor man in the slums, Zenos never had opportunities in life, so he decides to forge his own opportunities by teaching himself the curative arts after a chance encounter with a healer.

Despite Zenos's diligent efforts to hone his skills to nothing short of perfection, the party deems him useless and kicks him out. Bereft of money and options, Zenos starts an illegal clinic and becomes a shadow healer. Word of his healing genius spreads quickly throughout the city’s underbelly, and as his reputation grows among the dregs of society, knowledge of Zenos's esteem reaches the wrong ears...

Read the full take

Born a poor man in the slums, Zenos never had opportunities in life, so he decides to forge his own by teaching himself the curative arts after a chance encounter with a healer. The premise is an underdog fantasy about a boy with nothing who builds a future through hard work and quiet determination.The strength is the progression. Zenos's steady growth is satisfying to follow, and the healing magic gives the story a clear and useful identity. The tone is hopeful and encouraging.The weaknesses are about the formula. The humble-beginnings structure is familiar, and some of the comedy feels forced. Readers wanting originality may find it standard.Recommended for fans of underdog stories with a steady, rewarding arc. Expect a hopeful, familiar read that delivers its pleasures.
