Summary

Reidon Ward will become a god.

He doesn't know it yet, of course. Reidon was born weak, sickly, and small. Afflicted with a painful disease and abandoned by his parents because of it, he has had to fight tooth and nail for every minor advantage life has allowed him.

However, his perseverance has not gone unnoticed, and when the most powerful artificial intelligence in human history takes an interest in him, things began to change quickly. Granted a CAD—a Combat Assistance Device—with awful specs but an infinite potential for growth, Reidon finds himself at the bottom of his class at the Galens Institute, one of the top military academies in the Collective. Along with his best friend, Viviana Arada, Reidon will have to start his long climb through the school rankings and on to the combat tournament circuits that have become humanity's greatest source of excitement and entertainment.

So begins the rise of a god. So begins the ascent of the Stormweaver.

The series falls into alot of subplotsand troupes like its marking off a checklist, mc with the highest potential, underestimated mc, Mc has a special capacity to go though pain because of backstory, The Mc is supposedly the smartest because he scored well yet dives head first into forced conflict. the billing situation would have been resolved if the MC said that the other student falsified a senior officers orders to attack him.

that would result in immediate punishment and no repercussions for him as well. but they had to redeem the main antagonist so they did the boring subplot thing that entirely slowed down the pace of the novel. there is the slow pace then time skip repeat. I think this would have been a much more enjoyable book if the MC wasn't stacked with the s grade growth rate thing as the mc is playing by a different set of rules that takes away the enjoyment of progression and makes it a chore.

The title of the book was tacked on at the end as well not what I expect from a book this long to make it work within the story.

bad pacing.

Reidan Ward has the biggest case of main character syndrome I've ever seen, but damn I'm interested in where he's gonna end up. The bio mentions that this is a military story, so I was worried about the usual propaganda, but the books are not an issue in that regard. The characters are a little generic overall, but with enough personality to be interesting and likable, and I find myself very eagerly awaiting the 3rd book to see where they all end up, and the main plot point, the CADs, are a very interesting prospect and well described.

MC is a little generic but I'm super interested in his story anyway

I do agree with some of the comments that the many of the story's logics are not making sense.

Also the narrator's voice for some of the girl/women characters is odd to say at least, so deep and croaky, making me too afraid to imagine how the girl with that kind of voice look like.

BUT, overall I enjoy listenling to this book immensely I barely want to pause the listening.

Enjoy the book
