Todd you did an amazing job at narrating! You can scream in my ear like a military sergeant any time and I would probably listen. The way the world and feelings were described. Just immaculate. There are down times but the scene with Keyes are just my absolute favorite! Thank you.

Naofumi Iwatani, an uncharismatic Otaku who spends his days on games and manga, suddenly finds himself summoned to a parallel universe! He discovers he is one of four heroes equipped with legendary weapons and tasked with saving the world from its prophesied destruction. As the Shield Hero, the weakest of the heroes, all is not as it seems. Naofumi is soon alone, penniless, and betrayed. With no one to turn to, and nowhere to run, he is left with only his shield. Now, Naofumi must rise to become the legendary Shield Hero and save the world!

To be perfectly honest I am writing this in hope that another volume gets written because the amount of detail put into this book feels like the guy is reading from a dnd setting and it is amazing! It absolutely sucks that it’s been 6 months with no follow up at all! Kurt, if you’re reading this, you started out great but it definitely sounded like you did long and drawn out reading sections. When I got to the part where Naofumi was accused the emotion sounds like you just read for 5 hours already! I don’t blame being tired and reading, I get it, but take shorter session, don’t be afraid of multiple takes and all of a chapter. I hope all of our honestly doesn’t drive you away but instead helps you pursue and endure.
