All the Skills by Honour Rae
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ah, a breath of fresh LitRPG air. I've been reading a lot of average stuff lately, so when I got into this, I didn't have all that much hope. I mean, sure, it has some friendly dragons and relatively horrible people, so I was wondering. Plus, I knew from the start it was going to be a skill-deck kind of fantasy, so I kinda had some high hopes for it.

Fortunately, it reads well. YA in feel, it's more a "kid gets a legendary card that allows him to level up (with practice) any kind of skill he sets his heart on" than a "let's ride dragons and kill the dark lord" kind of thing.

This, it turns out, is everything I wanted to read. Let's learn and get good at better learning and maybe sometimes be a great thief while we're at it.

Yummy.

I can't wait to get on with the next. :)




Personal note:
If anyone reading my reviews might be interested in reading my own SF, I'm going to be open to DM requests. I think it's about time I get some eyes on them.
