Kara is given a choice: die or become a god.

Summoned to a world ruled by a game-like system, Kara is offered a power that lies beyond it. A power given by a dying dragon. A power that predates the system. A power wielded only by the gods.

To become the last wielder of a dragonsoul.

She accepts, but her path to godhood does not begin easy. Finding herself lost in the monster-infested Xor-In Mountains, she is pursued by a powerful being who seems to know about her origins. To make matters worse, a mysterious calamity is sweeping over the region, wiping out every settlement she finds before she even arrives. She isn't deterred, despite these obstacles in her journey. Instead, she finds herself befriending monsters and adapting to this harsh magical environment.

Kara finds herself thriving.

Until eventually, she finds refuge amongst the strange inhabitants of the Sanctuary City of Alyona. Despite its name, it is not nearly as safe as it appears to be...

However, even though there are still seven stages of ascension for her to undergo, she will complete her apotheosis by any means necessary.

And Kara will become a god.

Fantasy progression books are really fun but there aren't a ton with female MC's! I love me an epic and this was really long so it hit the sweet spot. Kara is a young human woman who finds herself in another world, meets a dragon and inherits his dragon soul. There's no book 2 yet but I'll definitely listen.

Only complaint is about a character in the book (I think this was def written by a man?) who is a sex worker and is referred to regularly as 'the prostitute' and it's a little demeaning. But eventually they assign her more agency and personality.

I know Tess from Millennial Mage and love her could listen all dayyyy

Really good MC, narration 100%

The story is... fine (although the narrative feels a little shallow and disjointed in places). My main gripe is with the general writing style. Lots of redundant and repetitive words in sentences making it redundant and repetitive and also redundant (I am aware of what I did here).

Tess Irondale is the major redeeming factor here. Her narration got me as far as I got.

Redundant writing is redundant

Kara is now in audiobook, and it's amazing!

I have to say, the narration is amazing, and much like in Salvos, Tess Irondale delivers here too. So if you enjoyed the Salvos audiobooks I'm sure you'll enjoy this one! Seriously, it's good!

Now onto the story!

It's uniquely fun and memorable. It has a lot of depth, whether it is trauma, the fabled emotions or good old character development. But do not let this fool you! Much like other stories in the genre, it's full of exciting moments with incredible action. Whether it is OP MC moments with amazing payoff, or Weak to Strong satisfaction, it's all there! And the MC has draconic powers that are incredibly cool!

As for the characters, worldbuilding or even the MC Kara? Well, they're all amazing, I have no complaints. They all feel real and fantastical.

So in short: Kara as a story is awesome, it's unique and it also retains the awesomeness of prog fantasy with badass dragon powers.

I can't recommend it enough, and for anyone that finds the synopsis or this review interesting, I highly suggest to give it a try!

The best story is now in audiobook!

Kara is a pretty boring MC. Not stupid but not compelling in any way. Like if you took had an extremely boring gf with zero personality or interests and isekai'd them. She was supposed to be an archeologist? Literally no impact on the story after her introduction. Don't people usually become archeologists because they're passionate about it? Not our girl Kara.
No romance. No harem.
Power/magic system isn't well explained in this book. Kept waiting for them to get into their unique cultivation systems and it never happened. I think it's just based off feelings? Enough bad- The world building so far is pretty decent and the action is good. I'll gladly pick up book 2 if it ever becomes available.

Worth the Read

The book was awesome and I loved every second of listening to it and I’m excited to hear what happens next

The character development

As with Amelia the level zero hero, this series isn’t as good as the Salvos series for me personally. I still enjoyed it, the pacing was just a bit slow as all of the character personalities were created. And there are a lot of characters.

Good start

Meh, not what I was looking for, fell like the story fell a little flat. The narration was decent though
