Can you cast spells at 1st level in Grim Tales?

I borrowed this book from a friend, but don't remember it exactly. Do you have to have the Magical Adept talent to actually cast spells? Since it is an advanced talent, that means you can't cast them until 3rd level.
OR
Can you cast at first level, you just take more burn because you don't get the additional bonuses to resit?
I thought that each time you take the talent, you get 1 spellcaster level, but my memory is hazy, thanx in advance!

I may be misremembering, but I think you can learn and cast a spell at 1st level; you have to be EXTREMELY skilled to make the "learn" spellcraft check, I believe. And, you take a HECK of a lot of direct CON burn from the spell - a 2nd level spell could outright KILL you if you're unlucky and of average frailty.
 

You can cast spell at 1st level but it is extremely difficult. You have to gain access to a spell first and then try to learn it but in order to learn it, you need to make a Spellcraft check. Since you can't make Spellcraft checks untrained, you would have needed to put ranks into Spellcraft upon character creation.

Once you learn the spell, you can cast it but your drain will be Con damage. The Magical Adept talent makes your caster level checks easier and makes the spell drain Str instead of Con damage.
