Saintess Summons Skeletons: Book 1

A Holy Necromancy LitRPG

By: Mornn

Narrated by: Hannah Schooner

She wanted to be a Necromancer, but awakened as a Saint! Somehow her summoned heroes are all undead?

How will the church react when their Saintess summons a skeleton in place of a mighty hero? Sofia isn’t too keen on finding out.

In this world, Gods choose [Saints], and [Saints] summon [Heroes] from other worlds; everyone knows that. But Sofia had a thing for bones ever since she was a child; there’s only one [Class] she wants: [Necromancer]! When, by the whims of fate, she gets both classes at the same time, the system breaks.

Two classes? That isn’t allowed!

It cannot be! The system’s administrators would not let it go… If only they were still there.

But they were not, and it was too late. Sofia saw an opportunity to abuse a loophole in the system, and she is just the kind of person who would try to stick her whole arm into said loophole if she could if only to see what happens.

So, what has the system, running by itself with its mysterious creator missing, done to mend the error? The two classes fused into one.

Sofia’s skills from the two classes were broken and mashed together. [Holy Light]? [Raise Skeleton]? What she receives is [Holy Skeleton] instead. But can she escape the Church’s grasp with her newfound powers, or is she destined to forever but some God’s pawn?

Follow Sofia as she unknowingly gets tangled in power struggles far beyond what she had bargained for.

With millions of views and thousands of followers, this was one of the most popular female-led web serials of 2023. Be ready for a wild ride as you experience the reworked and improved version of Sofia's Skeletal Shenanigans!

Break a leg, skeleton!

Starts off strong

I really liked the premise and it starts off really strong. This is a really long book which is usually a good thing but I slowly checked out after chapter 59. Up until then I felt like there was an overarching urgency to the story and world building along with characters to explore. But after chapter 59 the rest of the book is pretty much the main character and party (which is really just one person) alone leveling up and not really having any interaction with other characters.

I think the hardest part for me was when they go to one dungeon realize they can’t really do anything there. Go back try to fight something they can’t defeat. Then go back to another dungeon that they already did and was devoid of characters originally and find it again devoid of characters still. It didn’t really feel like it was going anywhere at that point. They were still leveling up and unlocking skills tho. So if you enjoy that it might keep your attention more than it did mine. The first part was good enough for me to still give it a 4/5.

Solid story with a bit of cheek

good story lot of moving parts they hint at but I'm looking to uncover more as the series progresses. lots of ways this story can go, not pigeon holes into anything and points out a lot of things that happen in the little/Isekai genre without being completely melodramatic and depressed for chapters. keep up the good work. Narration is solid only wish you had stat sheet audio chapters to skip although it's a lot easier than most litrpgs

It's a decently written book

The reader gets so quiet at times and the chapter beginnings are so loud that it makes it hard to listen to without turning the volume app-and-down all the time. The book is a decent book. You're able to listen to it, put it down and forget about it, then come back to it. It's not what I'd call a great book. But it's an all right book.

The quality of both the story and the speaker are amazing!

The quality of both the story and the speaker are amazing! The title is all that needs to be said.

To fight Or two story

This is one where it's really good. When it comes to the fight scenes and how. We've seen to the story, but at the same time you just feel like they need to concentrate more on the story in the next one. Because this one was so heavy on the fight scenes that it didn't really get into. Anything of substance. When it came to the story, it gave us some foreshadowing but really, that was it

Lovely story

This was a very fun story. I loved how it started out, It was very unique, as she gets her powers, and then is, pulled/kidnapped to serve the church due to her class. It was also fun to hear how the messed up class was due to the glitch she was experiencing.

One item of note, the glitched pieces, at first, made me think my Bluetooth or the audio book itself was messed up at first.

Hannah does a great job as voice actor for this, and kept me very entertained on this story!

100% worth it

I put this book off for months because I thought it was going to be a dime a dozen comedy but it actually has a solid story and good characters.

Better than I thought

Goes a bit long for pacing but way better than I expected. The main cast is what kept me hooked for 90% of the book. Skip all stat recaps and play at 1.1x obviously.

an incredible and clean story

if you like romance or smut this is not the book for you, but I he story building, character building and world building is fantastic! I felt so drawn in at every chapter!

Great fun!

This book is an absolute delight! Sofia's journey from aspiring Necromancer to an unexpected Saintess, summoning skeletons instead of traditional heroes, is filled with humor, suspense, and creativity. The fusion of her dual classes creates a unique and engaging magic system that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The narration brings Sofia's adventures to life, making you feel every twist and turn in her quest to navigate a world that isn't ready for her unorthodox powers. This story is a must-listen for fans of strong female leads, innovative magic systems, and a plot that keeps you guessing. Highly recommended!
