The Summoner series follows a single protagonist across 22 installments, using the LitRPG format where progression, skill trees, and game-like mechanics drive the plot alongside more conventional fantasy elements. The books were published between 2018 and 2021.
The numbered titling, Summoner 1 through Summoner 22, keeps the reading order unambiguous. The series rewards patience: with 22 books to work through, readers who commit to it get far more time with the world and the character’s development than most series offer.
The pace of publication was fast during the series run, which meant readers at the time rarely had to wait long for the next installment. The full series is now complete and available to read straight through.
