*Note* Unlike most releases from English publishers, Solo Leveling is not originally a Japanese Light Novel. Instead, the book originates in Korea where it has found success as a novel, manhwa, and webtoon. The series is being released digitally in English by Webnovel under the title “Only I Level Up.” As of now, the Yen On release is print only.

**Note** There was a recent double boxset release of the series in Korea. They compiled the series into 8 books for that release. Since the English cover is the same as those box sets, I believe we will be getting the series as 8 books in English

Synopsis: The weakest of the weak, E-class hunter Jinwoo Sung has no money, no talent, and no prospects to speak of. And when he enters a hidden dungeon that fateful day, he ends up being left to die in the aftermath of a horrendous tragedy. At death’s door, Jinwoo is suddenly invited to be a “player” by a mysterious voice. Desperate to live, Jinwoo jumps at the chance…but what is this strange new leveling system that only he can see?
