Champion's Trial

A Summoner Fantasy LitRPG (Bonded Summoner, Book 1)

De: JJ Bookerson

Narrado por: Anne Marie Lebeaur, Jack Smith

Delving dungeons by day, relaxing with cute monster girls at night.

When a God of War barged into his apartment, Jake had no idea what to expect... but it wasn't being forced into a never-ending war against evil invaders, or that the battle would strangely resemble the MMORPG games he loved.

Working hard and building himself up from almost nothing, Jake would need every bit of knowledge and preparation to master his new class of Summoner. Joined by a sly Demoness with an ancient past and a shy Valkyrie hoping to prove herself in battle, they'll find excitement and enjoyment as they level and grow in power.

Will Jake be strong enough to face the challenges of an evil labyrinth, or will he die and be separated from his new family forever, waiting to respawn in the void?

Bonded Summoner Book 1 has already been enjoyed on RoyalRoad and Scribblehub, with over 350,000 views between the two platforms. What are you waiting for?

Contains: LitRPG system, crafting, cultivation, dungeon crawling, dating, and an infinite universe.

Great LITRPG

Liked the book alot. I would recommend giving it a try. Good dungeon style growth.

Awesome!

Wow! I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! I already downloaded and started listening to the next one

I like this story it's a little rough around the edges.

I like this story it's a little rough around the edges but I'm addicted. The male voice actor is cringe worthy so just push through those parts.

Check This One Out

Right up front before you read any further just know that I recommend this book to anybody thinking about giving it a shot. A little context for my review. I tend to take it easy on the first and last book of any series as not every series makes it to “The End” and the first of anything can be a shaky endeavor. For this story everybody is new to me. I have never come across the author or the narration team before. The author appears to be relatively new. He's only got this story up on Amazon and audible. If you get to the ending of this one and are looking for more than book two is available in eBook form and book three says that it's got an August 1st release date for this year. These are answers to the questions that I usually have at the ending of a good book. The author is also on (Redacted for Amazon) if you want to check out chapters of the story early. Similar to the author, the narration team has a handful of performances available on audible. Actually, there wasn't anything that interested me, but I did enjoy their performance for this story and would look forward to more from them in this genre. I do not want to risk spoiling anything for anyone so I will simply say that I was entertained and am interested in what comes next. Lastly, I'll just say well done to everybody who had a hand in bringing this story to us, the Audible listeners.

Monster Girl heaven

Great start to the series. As an avid fan of isekai and monster girls I give this the highest quality of my recommendations. From the voice work to the world building I was never let down

5 stars

Great book by J J Bookerson. You will not be disappointed. Also the dual narration really brings the story to life. I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

Brace yourself for spicy scenes, exhilarating dungeon crawls, and an infinite universe waiting to be explored—Champion's Trial: Bonded Summoner Book 1 is a must-read for fans seeking a heart-pounding adventure!

a pretty great first book

this a very good first book.
it has decent world building, which I hope gets added on in the future.
Was pleasantly surprised by Anne as a primary narrator. she did wonderful.

narrators lacking

the male narrator is very monotone and adds no life to the story. the female narrator almost sounds like Ai voice generated at times with how she mispronounces some words like nascent and carapace.

A good story with poor narration

overall it's a good story but it's hard to tell with the poor almost AI sounding narration. what stinks is every book in the series is like this. I will continue the series on kindle
