About this listen

One day, Jyosh will climb the heavens and slay a dragon god.

Though nothing could seem less likely for a slave, especially one whose body is too broken to cycle sunshine into destructive magical energy. Until he meets a woman who can secretly teach him the lightblade, an energy sword transmuted from sunlight, capable of changing size, shape, and performing incredible magical feats according to the wielder’s skill level.

Except she only exists in his dreams. Each hour of sleep equals a day in these shared lucid dreams, wherein he must master new lightblade abilities, bond with his teacher and other allies, and gain the fortitude to overcome his weakness and crush his enemies.

When Jyosh awakens to learn that a mysterious lightblade master—who also commands an armada of sky ships—is spreading destruction across the land, he’ll face a trial by fire against forces far more frightening than he could ever dream.

And forged from that fire, a Light Ascendent will rise.

Lightblade is book one of the Lightblade Saga, a progression sci-fantasy featuring light-based magic, dream training, and dragon gods.

Another great adventure from Zamil Akhtar

Really enjoyed this book and adventure, it's not as dark as his Gunmetal Gods series / world, but there's a lot of similar stuff going on. The world-building and sheer imagination at play is so bombastic, I love it.

Zamil delivers again!

Great story. Although, the world building could have been better, can be hard to visualize the environment and settings at times throughout the story.

Exploring the world and mind

Perfect read to satisfy my need for exploration of unknown worlds in the year of Elden ring and just after finishing Tunic!

No Exposition

Story begins with no world building and the only perspective offered is from someone that has their mind comprised. Mystery around the basic world elements never makes for a good adventure story

The author 's other series is great,but not this .

Good world building. However, the main character is very hard to root for. He is wishy, washy, whiney foolish, and did not grow or progress.. The magic system is great in concept but very unexciting in execution and combat. Stopped at 80 percent..
