Resumen del Editor

Summoners are born, not made.

For Bran of Ealdor, this is the one thing stopping him from becoming a member of the legendary warriors known as summoners. They are gods among men who can call monsters into battle to fight alongside them.

Mages, Rangers, Beastmasters, Protectors, Hunters, and Lancers. These are the six classes of summoners.

None of which Bran can become.

Until one day, when a griffin crash lands into the stable, a summoner riding on top of the beast.

That day, everything changes for Bran. He is thrust into a world of magical creatures and their masters, and he soon discovers just how unique he is among them. But being special puts a target on his back. Some of the most powerful summoners in the world would do anything to discover just what makes him so special.

Summoner’s Shadow is a LitRPG series that occurs in a medieval fantasy world. Bonding with monsters grants a summoner special abilities, dictated by the monster type and their class. Monsters can be leveled up, augmented, and evolved.

Really Good

I really love the almost adult rated pokemon theme. Monsters battling Monsters. Not much more to say

sad the book was over because I wanted more.

I really enjoyed this one! it was a really fun world, kinda like pokemon meets dungeons and dragons. main character has some cool powers and I look forward to seeing what happens next!

Summoner Shadow

Once again DB King has done it again and completely shattered my expectations of this book (and probably the next one to come). The book itself was extremely intriguing to listen to due to the fact that all the ideas that he used in creating this book came full circle. The idea's that DB King used in this book worked really well and I'm glad he went for writing this series despite being so pessimistic & hesitant about it. But yeah, I think it was well worth trying it out. The introductions to the characters were done in a nice and timely manner. So thumbs up for that. I also felt like the story and action of the book was set to a steady pace for the audience to follow along by and not get lost trying to figure out what's going on. Both, the narrator and narrator did a fantastic job on this audiobook and I look forward to the next Summoner's Shadow.

5/5 stars.

The only thing that I really had a problem with is that the audiobook is a bit short, but hopefully the next one is a tad longer.

it's good a unique take on magic

I usually don't right reviews but I've seen two form a Joe and Joseph and honestly I don't get the hate. yes he is a veteran but that was with the spear why in the world would it mean he should be a magic god I think he learned how to use it fairly well. then there is the other review the author stated multiple times that he had some archery training (not to mention I'm sure magic plays a role with his development) tldr it's good ignore the haters

Freaking Awesome

This is an awesome book. You follow the journey of Bran, late bloomer Summoner. He get his long wish of becoming a Summoner. The story is very well written with enjoyable characters. The system is great. Great twist in how humans don't have powers, the monsters do. Get to tame monsters and feels a lot like an adult Pokémon (got me hooked off that alone). Can't wait for second book!

Pretty cool story and good narrator

First time I heard this narrator before and i thought he did a great job. Characters had different voices. The female voices sounded fine and didn't pull me out of the story.

Story was pretty cool. Chosen one type story where the MC is special. The power system is really cool and listening to all the evolution of the creatures was interesting. Can't wait to listen to more summons the MC will get and how he will evolve along with his special abilities. The story had a steady if not fast pace and it felt like the MC was always progressing.

Very enjoyable listen - anxious for more

I took a chance on this one since it’s from DB King and I’ve liked some of the other series. I was really happy I did, it was a great listen and I’m very excited for more to come.

I suspect I’ll probably be too impatient and read the next one that was just released to Kindle. Still anxious to listen as I think this series will have some replay value.

Great start for a new series! You will enjoy it!

A war veteran finds danger dropping down on him in a barn! His peaceful retirement ends and adventure begins!

Great start

Great monster taming book 1 and really looking forward to the next book in the series

Pleasantly good listen!

Story
The story is an interesting take on summoners, its been a pleasent and enjoyable listen. I've read the review from Joseph with his 2 star rating and i will disagree about his comments of the main character. I've enjoyed the references about him being a soldier and it helped drive the decisions he makes durring battle, which seemed like smart moves to me. The plot has a good deal of mystery which I will be looking forward to finding out about in the future volumes.

Audible performance
Mr. Rising  did a fairly good job with being the narrator for the story. He did a great job in coming up with the different voices for the characters. Though my few negatives on his narration was saying "times" while listing out the inventory items for each item and I felt there was a slight offness to his performance. Might have been due to seeming a bit slow. Reccomend maybe to speed up to 1.1 or 1.2 on the narration speed setting. But seriously though it was an enjoyable time listening to the story.

Thabk you Mr. King for another great story
