It's pretty good. Wonderfully written. Quite classic plot, characters are the main interest here. Great magic system.

Some classic shit like dragons have a more grounded feel in here (them being really rare giant grass eating lizards)

What people don't seem to get is that it isn't an "epic fantasy" series.

Just the story of a guy who had an exceptionnal life, going from his childhood to the present day where he is a broken man. And it's the main reason i don't get the criticism of him being a perfect Gary Stu.

First of all, the story is a first person narrative so yeah, the guy thinks of himself as a flawless god but he does fuck up pretty often and has to study and work much harder than any other character of the book.
