About this listen
When the rich hog all the magical cards? Time to use that five-finger discount!
Life on the Waves isn't easy. Especially if you're a pickpocket with no education, no prospects, and no future.
For Chase and his crew of low-lives, there is one real option. If they want a path out of poverty, they will have to unlock access to the magical card system that will change their lives for the better.
Of course, nothing's free in life. And nobody higher up the chain is going to give them a hand up. But what they might lack in education, riches, and, let's face it, hygiene, they have in determination.
Sure, they're facing established powers, churches, and age-old prejudices. That just means it's time to get to work. If the Lightborn won't share and play nice?
Sometimes the only way to get dealt a better hand is to steal the whole damn deck!
D&D meets Magic: The Gathering in this epic fantasy deckbuilding LitRPG.

Story
It’s Drop Night, the one night every decade when the gods hand out cards to a lucky few. If you get a deck, you’re a deckbearer capable of wondrous feats within the Great Game system. You can control powerful monsters and summon mantles that let you fight alongside your beasts. Ethan Wolfe, top enforcer for the Grimm family mob, has already been overlooked on two previous Drop Nights. People of his ilk seldom receive cards, as the gods tend to favor people who follow their divine mandates, but that doesn’t mean Wolfe can’t hope.

Misleading title
I think the title is misleading. The publisher calls this a deckbuilding LitRPG, but the book doesn’t read like one.
The story is solid, and all the secondary characters are interesting and have their own personality quirks. It was fine if you wanted it for the story, not counting the LitRPG.
I don’t like the author’s concept of Deckbuilding, and I won’t continue with this series or the author. Characters are born with a “card”—nothing new there. It doesn’t appear that the cards can be traded. There is one mention in the book of cards being taken out, but we never see it. The book reads more like I have 1 to x spells that I can cast.
Past the spell that everyone is born with, we don’t see anything resembling a card deck until 10 hours 35 minutes into the story. Then it is another seven before we see more “card” stuff.
IMHO, the author jumped on the Deckbuilding Bandwagon but failed to deliver.

A LitRPG Disappointment: Missed Potential
If you're going to dive into this audiobook, prepare for a long, arduous journey before anything remotely rewarding happens. The main character (MC) and story barely find their footing after a staggering 11 to 13 hours of lackluster storytelling. Even then, the LitRPG elements—which should be a highlight—are sparse, underwhelming, and poorly developed.
I was eager to enjoy this due to its darker tone and the promise of a card-based LitRPG system, but it fails to deliver on nearly every level. The MC is a frustrating archetype: the kind of reckless, inept leader who constantly drags others into trouble. Worse still, the supporting cast lacks depth, with each character reduced to a single, overly emphasized trait for easy recognition.
As for the card system? It feels tacked on, like an afterthought rather than an integral part of the narrative. What could have been a compelling mechanism ends up being woefully underexplored, leaving the story hollow and unengaging.
Ultimately, unless you're a die-hard fan of slow-burn stories with minimal payoff, this one is a hard pass.
