I can confirm that 'Solo Leveling' has 8 English volumes out right now. The original Korean run is longer, but the translations are coming at a steady pace. What I love about this series is how it takes the classic 'weak to strong' trope and executes it flawlessly. Sung Jin-Woo's progression feels earned, and the side characters add so much depth to the story.
The manhwa adaptation is phenomenal, but the novels offer extra details that make the world feel even more alive. If you're a fan of action-packed stories with a touch of fantasy, this is a must-read. The artwork in the novels is minimal, but the writing more than makes up for it. I’ve reread the series twice already, and I’m still picking up new details each time.
I can totally understand why you're curious about how many books there are. As of my latest deep dive into the series, there are officially 8 volumes of the light novel released in English. The Korean version has a few more, but the English translation is catching up fast. The story follows Sung Jin-Woo's insane journey from the weakest hunter to an absolute powerhouse, and each volume is packed with intense action and jaw-dropping moments. The manhwa adaptation is also a must-read if you haven't checked it out yet—it's just as thrilling, if not more so, with its stunning artwork. I can't wait for the next volume to drop!
For fans of 'Solo Leveling,' the light novel series is a treasure trove of epic battles and character growth. Currently, there are 8 volumes available in English, translated from the original Korean version, which has 14 volumes. The English release is steadily progressing, so it won't be long before we get the rest.
What makes this series stand out is how it blends RPG elements with a gripping narrative. Sung Jin-Woo's transformation from an underdog to a near-godlike figure is nothing short of mesmerizing. The world-building is top-notch, and the pacing keeps you hooked from start to finish. If you're into the manhwa, you'll love the novels even more—they provide deeper insights into Jin-Woo's thoughts and the lore behind the dungeons and monsters.
I highly recommend grabbing the physical copies if you can; the covers alone are worth it. And if you're new to the series, start from Volume 1—you won't regret it.

When the apocalypse came, she lost everything. Starving, hunted, and desperate, she trusted the one man she loved… only for him to betray her in the cruelest way possible. He stole her last supplies to please another woman and left her to die in a sea of the undead.
But death wasn’t the end.
She woke up days before the world collapsed.
After cutting ties with her ungrateful ex and his parasitic family, a mysterious voice awakens in her mind, LUS, a Level-Up System designed to help her survive the coming end.
With knowledge of the future and a system guiding her every move, she begins to prepare. She stockpiles resources, builds a base, and learns how to fight back against the horrors that once destroyed her.
And when the apocalypse arrives again… she’s ready. But survival isn’t the only thing waiting for her in this new life.

The system is supposed to be my mother's "in sample" antidote to cure the virus. She was a mad scientist of the base where uninfected humans habitats to survive from the outer world.
While she is burying herself with works, I decided to be the useless child and the only one she has. Isn't it amusing! Being treated as the daughter of a crazy woman who is obsessed with antidotes. Even after failing hundreds and thousands of times.
She should know my well-being but she didn't. No matter how much of a genius I am, it's worthless! I am still garbage in her eyes...! I tried so hard to make her proud but all she cares about is the antidotes and saving humanity!
She even left me under my aunt's care. Not looking back even
once...!
Well, that is what I thought before the zombies conquer the base and being forced to drink a certain red liquid which is the antidote! Alast, being thrown
into a foreign system.

Bima is just an introverted, scrawny kid used to living behind a gaming screen and being a constant target for body shaming. But his life takes a drastic turn when he wakes up in a ruined city crawling with zombies. In the midst of the chaos, something even stranger than the apocalypse emerges: the "Single Survival System," which hits him with absurd missions likes maintaining an ideal BMI, getting revenge on his bullies, and landing his first kiss. Every mission isn't just a ridiculous challenge; it’s a matter of life and death.
Forced out of his comfort zone, Bima must face his dark past. He crosses paths with Donny, his former bully who is now a zombie, and Kevin, an ex-gym influencer who has transformed into a fanatical cult leader obsessed with the perfect physique and extreme protein intake. Amidst the chaos, Bima meets Lia, a tough convenience store clerk who harbors a deep-seated trauma toward food. Together, they survive nonsensical threats, ranging from zombie food vloggers obsessed with livestreaming death to grotesque mutants lurking underground.
But the madness is only the beginning. Bima’s reckless actions catch the attention of a far more dangerous entity: the Master AI Fitness Freak, an artificial intelligence that views humans as inefficient unless they meet extreme nutritional standards. With the help of Riska, an AI with cold, business-like logic that shares a secret connection to Bima’s past, the battle shifts into a clash of ideologies: perfection versus happiness.
In a world that worships muscles, protein, and ruthless efficiency, Bima fights back in an unexpected way, using Indomie as a symbol of balance, hope, and humanity.
Left for dead by the man she loved. Reborn with a system built for absolute domination.
When the zombie apocalypse hit, Eva’s pathetic boyfriend stole her last scraps of food and fuel to please his mistress, leaving her to be ripped apart by a ravenous horde.
But instead of dying, Eva wakes up thirty days before the outbreak, and this time, she’s not playing the victim.
With her memories of the future and "LUS" a ruthless Level-Up System echoing in her head—Eva ditches her toxic ex, hoards a fortress of supplies, and builds an unstoppable wasteland empire.
Now, her sniveling ex is back on his knees, weeping and begging for forgiveness. But Eva doesn’t have time for a coward. She has a base to expand, a system to max out, and a line of dangerously powerful, fiercely protective alpha "partners" begging for her attention—starting with Justin, the lethal wasteland warlord who refuses to let her go.
The world ended once. This time, it belongs to her.
The whole world knew Lionel Potter was crazy about his wife.
He wrote songs just for her, baked desserts for her, and couldn't go three sentences without saying "my wife".
But Iris Potter discovered that the same Lionel who loved her as if his life depended on it had cheated.
She summoned the system and applied to leave the world.
[Understood. The self-exit channel has been activated. In 15 days, you will leave this world. The exit method will be a staged death. The location will be the seaside where you once saved the male lead. Cause of death: suicide by drowning.
[Please prepare accordingly for your death.]
On the 15th day, Iris arranged everything and staged her departure to look like she had gone into the sea, leaving Lionel behind.
Only then did Lionel wake up. He unraveled, nearly losing his mind, consumed by the need to find her.
I recently finished reading 'Solo Leveling', and the chapter count is something I had to double-check because the story was so gripping I lost track. The main series has 179 chapters, which might sound like a lot, but trust me, once you start, you'll binge through them in no time. The pacing is fantastic, with each chapter packed with action, character development, and those jaw-dropping moments that make manhwa so addictive. There's also a side story with extra chapters that adds more depth to the world. If you're just starting, prepare for a wild ride—it's one of those stories where you'll blink and suddenly realize you've read 50 chapters in one sitting.
As a hardcore fan of 'Solo Leveling', I've followed the series from its web novel days to the manhwa adaptation. The original web novel, written by Chugong, consists of 14 volumes, which cover the entire story arc of Sung Jin-Woo's rise from the weakest hunter to the ultimate monarch. The manhwa adaptation, illustrated by Jang Sung-Rak (aka Dubu), has 14 volumes as well, beautifully bringing the novel's intense action and emotional moments to life with stunning artwork.
What makes 'Solo Leveling' stand out is its meticulous world-building and character development. Each volume peels back layers of the story, revealing deeper mysteries and higher stakes. The manhwa's pacing is impeccable, blending jaw-dropping fight scenes with quieter, character-driven moments. Whether you're a newcomer or a longtime fan, the 14 volumes offer a complete and satisfying journey from start to finish.
