Book series about a boy who has a scroll in a graveyard and accidentally summons a sort of dragon thing

Question

I remember reading a series years ago that was really quite good.

A boy has a scroll in a graveyard and accidentally summons a sort of dragon thing, after a bit he goes to a school to learn to control his familiar. Other kids are learning to summon as well, mainly a small bug, they end up in a war with I think orcs or some such. He ends up coming home and inherited his family home and farm then another war or battle happens.It was a series I believe, in English, years being atleast a decade, was something about multiple races like elves and orcs and men, I do remember that I think he named his little dragon ignius or something similar, in the second book it went into a volcano and grew, then third it's big enough to ride, they summon the familiars from a kind of other plane of existence

Answer 1

It looks to be a series called Summoner, the first book is titled The Novice, and is written by Taran Matharu.

As the pieces on the board maneuver for supremacy, Fletcher must decide where his loyalties lie. The fate of an empire is in his hands. The Novice is the first in a trilogy about Fletcher, his demon Ignatius, and the war against the Orcs.
