À propos de cette écoute
Five years ago Corin Cadence's brother entered the Serpent Spire - a colossal tower with ever-shifting rooms, traps, and monsters. Those who survive the spire's trials return home with an attunement: a mark granting the bearer magical powers. According to legend, those few who reach the top of the tower will be granted a boon by the spire's goddess.
He never returned.
Now it's Corin's turn. He's headed to the top floor, on a mission to meet the goddess.
If he can survive the trials, Corin will earn an attunement, but that won't be sufficient to survive the dangers on the upper levels. For that he's going to need training, allies, and a lot of ingenuity.
The journey won't be easy, but Corin won't stop until he gets his brother back.

excellent if a little frustrating at times
Narration:
Very good overall, does well to give all characters their own voice.
Main character:
Well executed, the book is written in the first person so we get all his inner monologue and the reasoning he uses to solve the problems he encounters, it is well executed and gives the reader the clues to come to their own conclusions. The protagonist is likeable and the author manages to make him feel like an actual person with doubts hangups, insecurities and weaknesses rather than an unstoppable force. He soes get a little frustrating at times though.
Side characters:
Maybe my favorite thing about this book is that it feels like it is written in Corrin's perspective and not around him, he is still at the core of the plot but the other characters have their own consistent personnalities and most of all agency. In terms of power level they are all at least rougly on his level which helps.
Worldbuilding/Magic system:
Well detailed and engaging, has a lot of depth. The author also foreshadows a lot of insteresting future developments. The delivery though leaves to be desired. We learn nearly everything about the world the protagonist has been living in for his whole life at the same time he does especially when it comes to the way the magic works. He has been working almost his whole life to get an attunement and yet he seems to barely know half of them and practically nothing about how they work.
Progression:
Excellent, you can really see the protagonist slowly learn to do new things with his attunement and it feels rewarding each time. He doesn't blitz his way through the ranks but rather he works hard to develop new capabilities at a pace that feels realistic.

I didn't go very far
It started abruptly and read part like a tabletop RPG and part like a Shonen, which sparked my curiosity because it felt simultaneously cliché and novel. However, when things started to make some sense and have some weight to them, it suddenly became Harry Potter. And apparently the bulk of the book is going to be like that.
