Rise of the Weakest Summoner, Volume IX

By: J. R. Saileri

Narrated by: Jonathan Waters, Ellory Lane

Though the request they had received from the Elf Queen was certainly surprising and not easy to fulfill, Ast's group still managed to save Civienne's precious friend, at the same time, saving the Elf Nation from the threat of an evil cult lurking right beneath the capital grounds. Meanwhile, Asterios started learning a lot more about himself and his kind from his soon-to-be mentor, getting closer to discovering his true self, which is certainly an important aspect to study considering who it might be that had led the nefarious organization from afar.

Now that their job is done and Althea is no longer sick, she has a decision to make. Is she going to keep her promise and come back with them as Ast's teacher or is the queen going to try and stop her? Are they even going to have enough time to focus on his proper education amidst all the other affairs back home?

Considering the rather important upcoming date related to a certain joyous occasion, it might be a tad difficult.

More story, still dirty

This one was very engaging story wise. Not lacking it’s usual luster that’s makes it good. Just not every so many chapters. It was nice to listen at work without worrying about random moaning starting up out so quickly.

Good story so far.

The story is still pretty good but the only difference is that the voices of the characters do not follow from previous volumes. Aside from that, it’s still very interesting to read (or listen to in this case).

Another great volume.

Excellent volume as usual. Great work to the writer and the performers. I love this story.

So so cool!

This book is so so cool! I loved every bit of it and can’t wait for the other books to come!

Great addition!

Finally adds someone to his harem that's been in the series for a few books now. Yeah!
Dragon city is growing and so is our dragon's power and influence.
Looking forward to the next book.
I'm giving this book 7.5 out of 5 stars.

better and better

this has it's long winded moments... but who cares with a series this good with suck characters. glad we see more of ladies branching out, but still remain close.

Relaxing story

ever since I discovered this series last year it's my go to for chill listen. the story just keeps getting better as time goes on.

Great storyline

After getting this far with the series, I think that the storyline has been fun and captivating. It might be due to the type of genre, but I did have a hard time with the "harem" aspect of it. This was entertaining and fun to follow, except for the panther girl. I found myself fast forwarding dialogue with her outbursts. I think that if she was meant to be a childish companion, then I wouldn't mind as much, but she was created as a lover... which started becoming annoyingly creepy. I kept trying to justify it as a cat-like personality, but I still just found her character really difficult to enjoy. I hope that moving forward, she becomes more mature and less like a child.
Also, while the genre may have demanded it, I also started skipping the sex chapters, as well. There were simply too many full sex chapters.
One other thing was that it felt like there was an overuse of adjectives and adverbs, almost like they were thrown in to create volume and increase word count. Especially since there was a constant repetition of the same descriptors.
I think that there is a lot of potential for the author to create great works. If the use of excessive adjectives, adverbs, and the panther-girl were omitted, I think the story would be among the top reads I have enjoyed.

The captivating story behind asterios

The story cuts off right when it gets good for every book but it is a good book

Great story. Except

This story would be perfect and just overall better if Miria wasn’t in it. Hate to say it but the character is just annoying and keeps getting more and more annoying as the story goes on. It wouldn’t be so bad if the character just didn’t just get more and more annoying. I’m actually impressed if this is intentional. It’s working.
