About this listen

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.

I have to admit, loved the narrator. He gave the characters each a life of their own, even the female characters.
Story-wise good, pacing was good. Honestly it was a little flat at the end, but the rest was engaging and the story had depth.
All in all, a read I'd recommend.

An engaging read

Absolutely bloody brilliant. I haven't enjoyed a book this much since I first listened to Dungeon Crawler Carl. It's just as well written, and also a great mix of action, adventure, worldbuilding and pathos. Very little humor in this book unfortunately, and what there is, is very dry.

Basic summary: Old dude gets a second chance at life in a universe where everyone lives inside a dungeon and are unable to get out. They use the cards that drop from monsters to give themselves magic and skills to help them 'climb the tower.'

he sorry uses a twist on the system genre that can go far. the story is interesting and I can see another 4 to 6 books in the future depending on the pacing. overall I loved the book. only gripe is there could have been a female actor for the female characters (that dosent take away from the great voice that is Jeff hays) tho that is just what I like.

cool concept

Interesting story but droning narrator great for going to sleep. Will try the next book and see if the narrator improves.

The story was more intriguing than I expected - Kerberos did a great job making the world engaging, rather than jarring and alien as many litRPGs can be. The voice acting, especially with the Irish accents, was immersive. Thoroughly enjoyed, and looking forward to any sequels!

Better than expected!

Initially I struggled (I don’t know why, or I would say) with this book, at first I tried reading it, was going to give up, however read many recommendations. So then moved to audio and I have really enjoyed the story, enough that I’ll be listening to more!
