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.

From the moment I began listening to this book I was hooked. The MC is such a bumbling character that I couldn't stop listening to his hijinks. I'm eagerly waiting for the next book in the series.

This book is a masterpiece of hilarity!!

not the best but not bad the main character is a little winy at the beginning and way to trusting throughout the story but I would continue listening if there where more to the story.

a good story

Overall I enjoyed the book and the fast pace of it all. 2 weeks travel was like 20 words long and no real downtime or boring parts. The narrator sounded like Tidus from FFX and I couldn’t get enough (massive fan). I didn’t find to book too long or too short.

Rather unique and constantly moving

I listened to it while falling asleep between books I was actually interested in. It wasn’t good. It wasn’t bad. Not sure I’d pay to keep up with the series

Middling

This MC is way too trusting of nobility for a peasant. The puzzles were elementary and the MC either lacks foresight or lacks real ambition. Yea, I won't be continuing this one.

Too noble minded or naive. Not sure which

the MC is too annoying, but the overall story is pretty nice, but MC is naive and/or stupid.

I mean I know I'm just getting started but like wtf is this MC, dude might as well be an isekai with how ignorant the dude is. like this guy has literally 0 training in anything and he's supposed to be some great person. also more like Pokémon or Yo-Gi-Oh. not what I thought at all when I got it

I just can't
