Summary
Reidon Ward will become a god.
He doesn't know it yet, of course. Reidon was born weak, sickly, and small. Afflicted with a painful disease and abandoned by his parents because of it, he has had to fight tooth and nail for every minor advantage life has allowed him.
However, his perseverance has not gone unnoticed, and when the most powerful artificial intelligence in human history takes an interest in him, things began to change quickly. Granted a CAD - a Combat Assistance Device - with awful specs but an infinite potential for growth, Reidon finds himself at the bottom of his class at the Galens Institute, one of the top military academies in the Collective. Along with his best friend, Viviana Arada, Reidon will have to start his long climb through the school rankings and on to the combat tournament circuits that have become humanity's greatest source of excitement and entertainment.
So begins the rise of a god. So begins the ascent of the Stormweaver.

Can’t wait for the next book
I bought the book on a whim, expecting it to be the same as all the other power levelling fantasys out there. Where the main character/s grow so exponentially and quickly that they become overpowered within the first 20 chapters, however the slow progression in levels aptly conveys the hard work that the characters put in coupled with the suspension before anticipated reveals each battle and moment feels weighty. Inspite of the world building and and balanced power system, the authors have obviously put in a lot of effort into each character. With even the background characters having substance and depth, making you genuinely care about the characters and their relations.

So much fun
Ok I’ll start the 1st 2 minutes I was pretty concerned I had wasted a credit, thought I’d give it a punt though,
After the prologue it was great 30 hours of great listening, I enjoyed the characters and there interaction, there’s some bits that I didn’t like there’s a bit to much repetition of certain phrases, but not enough to spoil it, overall a 👍🏻

Very very good
If you follow Anime, you may have read/watch An irregular at magic high school. Technology and Story is very close in this book. I'd be surprised if the writer hadn't come across the series.
It is a very good book, great characters and lots of action. Highly recommended

Two words: To Short.
Considering that this is a 33 hour long book, I stand by what I said in the title of this review. It's to short!!!

A great first entry
Other reviewers have already said it, but this is pretty great book for the genre, with plenty of action but not excessively so. The writing quality is decent and you get value for your credit, I'd also so say there's minimal filler.
The characters a well rounded, the skill progression reasonable and consistent. Established rules and expectations are followed. There are unexpected twists and turns but this don't rely on the characters being irrational or rule braking. If rules are broken, the reasoning is well established and act as an evolution, in stead of braking your emersion.
some of the characters are exceptionally hard headed, but then again you often get that with exceptional people. A very minor critique, a touch more romance between the main characters might have been nice, as it's minimal at best, but it does seem natural and well written. Choosing between minimal or excessive though, I'd take the minimalist approach every time.
Oh and the narrations pretty great too, as it seems well suited to this type of story and character's.
So far so good, I look forward to the next one!

A new "Favorite book"
Beautiful performance by Luke Daniels, I was gripped from the start.
Loved the book, a new favorite and thoroughly itching for the next in the series. Fantastic work by all involved.

can't recommended this enough.
the opening info dump was heavy but once that was over the book very quickly became one of my favourites and I'm not usually a listener of the sci-fi titles. looking forward to the next in the series.

Best book I've heard all year!!
I could not recommend this more if I tried. My only gripe is that I read it when it came out and now I have to wait until winter for book 2.

I love the book, but it's too long
The world building, "magic system" and character development are all really well done. Cannot be denied.
The first time I read this book, I could not put it down. I was completely enthralled. I was hoping I would enjoy it just as much 2nd time around in audio form, but I found myself not having patience to sit through it all.
What comes across in the 2nd read, or listen in this case ...is that there are a lot of sections that you can skip through without really missing anything important storywise.
So I guess, my only complaint is that the book can be long-winded at times ...and even that isn't as big an issue on the 1st read/listen. On 2nd listen tho, and I recognize that this is nitpicking because I wanted the book to be a timeless classic that I could go back and enjoy over and over again, I feel like it's too long. Details are over-explained, and honestly there's a lot of fluff in there.
I honestly believe that the book would be better if it were pared down.
That said, I would still highly recommend this book to anyone into progression fantasy. It's a super creative interpretation of the genre, and I am very much looking forward to book 2.

Fantastic story, killer narration
I read this in paper copy. Stayed up all night to finish it, it was that good. 6 months later, I listened to the audiobook. Even though I knew what was going to happen, I still couldn't stop listening.

All hype & fluff
Bought audio book based on review... my mistake. No substance... repetative...
Set in the far future, on a military school campus that feels like an entitled highschool campus. The students learn to use alien tech mech suits to fight MMA style... very repetitive

A GREAT book with unique take on sci-fi fantasy.
Between O'Connor, Chmilienko, and Daniels. This book has the best making I've read in a while. 3 great artists. One very great book that is a little outside the norm.
The gamelit aspects are a different spectrum from the normal leveling.
The fantasy tech suits are a nice highlight for the story.
And lastly the story itself has a good bit of uniqueness that doesn't deprive the story of any action drama or mystery.
I highly recommend this to anyone who likes sci-fi fantasy, but don't expect much magic in the normal sense though. I feel that the magic like portions of the story will ramp up more in the second book.

Not very interesting.
Imagine "Super Powereds" with no depth and no interesting characters. Just listen to Super Powereds instead.

Speechless
This is what I wake up to hear. This book is awesome and makes me feel it deserved full price over a credit. Definitely one of the best credits ever spent. Can't wait for book 2.
