The Novice Summoner Book One The Summoner Trilogy 1 eBook Taran Matharu

This book started out with the usual orphan who happens to be gifted with powers. Fletcher is a bit of a pariah in his home town of Pelt. A simple, yet plausible series of events leads him to discover his powers, and puts him on the run from the law. I like that this book has no prophecy. There's no destined hero, or looming apocalypse. The world is at war with the orcs, but the hero, Fletcher, is just a boy finding his way in the midst of it all.

When he gets to the city of Coricillum, where Vocans, the summoned academy he is to train at is, he finds a city rife with corruption, racism, and the excesses of privilege that the noble class abuses.

In the midst of this all, Fletcher finds himself making friends of misfits, fighting in scenes that are not overblown to unrealistic proportions, and fine tuning his craft, so he can excel.

The good guys are well developed, while the villains are portrayed as arrogant, greedy, and treacherous.

As a whole, the book does a good job not getting ahead of itself, and developing at a pace that is enjoyable and relevant.

The magic system is simple yet serviceable, and skillfully I corporates the familiar, or "demons" as the book calls them.

This book would fit in the teen fantasy fiction genre, as it has no graphic rape or torture scenes, but this well seasoned fantasy lover of 35 years still enjoyed it thoroughly.

The Novice Summoner Book One The Summoner Trilogy 1 eBook Taran Matharu Reviews

Thoughts This book is fantastic. I love, love, love this book. I love how Taran Matharu weaved such a complex, interesting, and creative world in the Dragon Rider Chronicles. I also liked all the diffrent demons and spells used by the summoners which includes, a Mite, a Salamander, a Golem, a Hydra, a force field, fire ball, kenetic ball, lightning, and telekenisis. Another thing that I apreciated about Novice is the relationship between the nobles and commoners. I enjoyed how people who are so similar to each other and who live right next to each other can hate each other so much. Overall, I love, love, love this fun, exciting, creative, complex, fantastic book.
First book in a long time where I could not put it down. In less than 24 hours of receiving I am a little over half way through the book, And to put it lightly this book is - easy. I mean this as in the writing is so fluid and following it and understanding the story, the emotions, and the details is easy.

I love the character, Fletcher is a true delight to know. He sees the world as i would in the movies and stories I see. Fletcher is patient, understanding, unbiased, confident and modest. One could say he is Gary Stu (perfect) with him catching on to his powers quickly and just happening on a powerful creature. However I like the way Matharu handles this, I see it more as a reward for being kind, open and friendly to others and trying to be helpful.
I feel this read is a very good balance between the Percy jackson series and The Inheritance cycle (the eragon books) Its not too playful like Percy Jackson and its not too over bearing and complicated like Eragon.

I very much look forward to finishing the book and will be picking up the next two.
Happy Reading!
Awesome magic. And it's got my favorite abandoned orphan trope. Like, how much better can we get?

I wasn't sure what to expect from this series. After all, I've read other hyper-publicized books that left me wondering which planet all the other reviewers were from. And also, demons aren't my thing, and the summary made it clear they'd be showing up. A lot.

They do show up, but in a more magical talking pet kind of way. Not that they spoke, but it's a similar idea.

I'd compare this book to Harry Potter in terms of it being a book with awesome magic and good friends. Other than that, they are very different books. It's just that they're both really great reads.

I finished the entire series in about 24 hours. (What would we do without weekends?) It was that good.

One thing that bothers me, is that it felt very juvenile in some ways. I wish it would've been more complex. It was great the way it was, but I feel it could've been better written in some areas. But that's not a reason to stay away. I highly recommend this series.
This is a story that I will end up reading multiple times should be rest of the series live up to this first book. In a way this is a bit like Codex Alera meets Harry Potter. The world feels real and rich with its own history and unique perspective when concerning elves, dwarves, orcs, and humans and oh yeah the ability to summon creatures from another world. The story mainly focuses on equality and the lack thereof between the races and classes, the prospect of War on a distant front, and learning to overcome through effort and discipline. There is not much to complain about In this interesting story.

Still I will say that the pacing was great for the most part but the story did contain several time jumps in which the characters have trained and learned off screen. It does so remind me of Harry Potter but with less class time as these future battlemages train for war.

Also this is not a stand-alone story given how the story ends. While many of the plot elements were wrapped up the story does feel like part one of a two-part book. It was rather infuriating to come up to the 88% Mark and realize the story continues in book 2. The infuriating factor is that the story is so good that I have to buy the next one despite the author's dirty trick.

Now this story is appropriate for young teens and above. There is no foul language that I can remember and though it does have violence and death it is not graphic. If I do have a complaint is that the hero of a story has to defend his life by taking another's life yeah he does not dwell upon it too much. It does feel as if this part is glossed over.
