Essence to gather. Cards to level. A summoner's deck to build.

After the collapse of the known world, Rowan Wilder opened his eyes and found himself on the first floor of the Tower. With a flawless memory and a mere eight cards to his name, he must venture out and prepare himself for the coming calamity.

In this place of blood and fantasy, Rowan has to not only survive, but thrive as he powers his way to the top of the tower. The Demonic Plague that has twisted the creatures on the upper floors is the least of his worries after he reveals the coveted origin of the summoner.

Cane in hand and Summons by his side, he'll have to tear his way through beasts and humans alike as monsters, criminals, and zealots try to hinder his ascent. Of course, he can maintain a sense of decorum while he faces these trials, yeah?

Don't miss the first book in the series A Summoner Awakens, a deck-building LitRPG series utilizing a card-based magic system with loads of customization and steady power progression. Perfect for fans of All the Skills and Towers of Heaven, as well as games such as Slay the Spire, Hearthstone, and Gwent.

Great book, even better audiobook.

Read this book in a day then the following day I decided to give the audiobook a go seeing as its narrated by Jeff Hays and it did not disappoint.

From start to finish the story is great, the characters are interesting and fun, the magic system is interesting and refreshing.

The voices performed by Jeff are exceptional as usual.

Highly recommend

Book 1 was the audio version and I am part way through book 2, currently only available in written form. It’s a meticulously well crafted story, and this gamble has paid off splendidly for me.

The protagonist is compelling, continually drawing me back to his perspective, yet, it's refreshing to also delve into the viewpoints of other characters. The pacing is good, and while I've never been particularly drawn to card-based magic systems, I found the execution here to be extremely well-done.

I was also impressed in book 2 by the author's inclusion of notes and guidance for readers, offering the option to skip over stat readouts—an often tedious aspect of the genre for audiobook listeners. While book 1 didn't necessitate such guidance, it's a thoughtful addition in book 2 that enhances the overall reading experience.

Jeff Hayes's narration skills are undeniable, adding another layer of excellence to this to this unfolding story.

With its potential for significant impact, I foresee this series ascending to the ranks of this genres big stars.

Top tier hidden gem - Needs to be talked about
