Publisher's summary

On Earth, Peter is a financial wizard, the accountant that could make your monetary missteps disappear in a sea of numbers, but he's trapped in a thankless job . . . until the day he's shot dead in his apartment . . .

Only to wake up in a body that isn't his and a world he doesn't know. Part of the hated Gold clan, Peter is now a servant in a land of cultivating martial artists, strange fantastical races, and warring clans. And while he might start at the bottom, the Gold clan gains their power through the accumulation of wealth . . . and making money is what Peter does best.

All he has to do is manipulate the clan he serves to gain fiscal power, uncover the truth behind the stigma against his new family, cultivate the power to fight those who want him dead, and do it all without revealing his true goals to the rest of the world, every step taking him down the Gilded Path.

A fun story but the narrator is a bit shaky

My first big negative is that the narrator did not get much direction and definitely didn't do 2nd takes, he only messes up maybe 4 times total so it's not a big deal, the problem comes from the fact that he is doing characters with only the slightest of adjustments, he seems to not have a wide vocal range and it hurts the audio. there is a mc with a harem and he has no female range period, the girl voices are barely passable but don't expect much from him.

The storyline is a trip, I honestly wish we were more involved with the mc thoughts rather than him just explaining like he is the 2nd coming of Sherlock Holmes. for real he sets a plan and only gives you the reader just enough info to get invested.

Not erotica

The story is actually pretty damn good, and I will be interested in the rest of the series. BUT, I was also expecting this to be pretty steamy as this is listed in the Erotica category. There is 2 instances where there's a quick hint that some hanky panky happened, but there was no build up nor is it ever mentioned or referenced again. You could take those 2 sentences out of the book and it would not affect the story or flow at all. So I do feel pretty misled as this was not what I had signed up for, but I felt like the story was well done and interesting enough for me to get passed that.

Not Erotica ....Misled ..PG Harem

Nice story but nothing sexual and basically skipped over ....was totally misled...the narrator has a good MC voice ...but Lady voices are terrible and sound manly ....good read if you just want an harem PG Adventure
