About this listen

When I was summoned to the family estate, I had no idea that my life was about to take a drastic turn. One moment I was good old Arthur, a young man with no real aim in life, the next I was in possession of my first four magical cards, on my way to become a Convoker!

But if my grandfather had entrusted this huge responsibility to me, I had to prove worthy. I had to take on the life of an Adventurer and complete our lineage quest—a perilous search and rescue mission in the most treacherous parts of our lands. But first things first, as a new Convoker, I had to start by learning the ropes and discover how to tame the Espers within the cards so they would at least listen to me. That's the only way I would gain any type of power.

And the gods know I will need power. It's a huge world out there, full of wonders and strange creatures, but also rife with monsters and mortal dangers. To stay alive, I will need to build my Convoker's deck, with the right mix of spells, minions, and equipment cards.

Wish me luck as my journey leads me to duel other Convokers and also infiltrate the lair of some cruel Spider Goddess. But I guess such is the life of a Convoker—live by the cards, die by the cards.

I've been a fan of progression fantasy and litrpgs for a while now and this isn't 100% in line with alot of books focusing the genre although this isn't necessarily bad overall all different from what I'm usually listening too but I loved it

I really like the card aspect

Its the Story of the progression from a Mage using and developing Cards. The Narration is good to very good, the Plot was straightforward. The world consists of unthankful People who step on or betray the MC because they can. And he, being the Hero, is the "bigger man" (doing the right things is reward enough) and shrugs it off. While this is a nice change, because there are enough Murderhobo MC around, I like MCs who are more in the "grey" area than the shining beacon.

So, I personally felt it entertaining with (in my opinion) a bit too forseeable Story, but if you like progression Fantasy you can not go wrong.

Liked the Narration, story was ok

Great concept, but storyline is lacking but feel this book is great overall.
Main character needs to be nerf a bit though
Hundred percent gonna get booked too

Great concepts looking forward to book 2
