About this listen
Being a hero isn't a walk on Mars!
Alexander S. Ryker dreams of becoming a hero, but dreams are hard to achieve when you’ve caused several million credits worth of property damage. Being expelled from the Mars Police Academy isn’t helping his case. Crushed, Alex encounters a girl named Gabrielle Angelise in a meeting that will change his life forever. Gabrielle is an alien! She’s also on the run. Alex wonders if this is the chance that he’s been waiting for, the chance to finally become a hero. Opportunities like this don’t come often, or ever, and so Alex steps up to protect Gabrielle and make his dream a reality. He will become a hero—if the strain from living with an alien bombshell doesn’t kill him first!
Fans of To LOVE-Ru who wanted a better protagonist will enjoy this series.

However, every time he goes to sleep, he's attacked by one of the many non-human races of this world, all of whom despise humankind.

Growing up, she was the girl down the street. Even then, I knew she was different. She was tough, rough, and had the strength to stop a speeding car with her bare hands. We were as thick as thieves, sharing every adventure. Then one day she revealed a secret. She wasn't from Earth. She was from a distant place called the Arcadia Multiverse. Her people lived under the rule of a god-like entity known as the System. That System had its gaze fixed on Earth. And it was only a matter of time before it came for us.

Our retro-tech towns might seem idyllic, yet go beyond the arcades and coffee shops and you'll reach the danger zones roamed by bionic bots. Me? I ran a video store with my cute friend Emiko. She's always been a little different, so I had to look out for her—we usually just watched movies and played games together. One day, a suspicious pink-haired chick burst into the store, warning me not to watch a tape labeled Property of Steelheart—Do Not Watch! So obviously, I did, and a terrifying ghost crawled out of the screen.

When my girlfriend’s dad chased me out of her bedroom that Saturday evening, I never expected to end up transported to a world based on some sort of RPG System. But I guess that’s what happens when you're focused on avoiding the business end of a baseball bat and not paying attention to where you’re running.

With that said I picked it up and decided to give it a listen since I had a credit free and I'm 4/5 glad I did. However since this is a hard enough review to write I'm going to ashew my typical pro/con style and shoot from the hip. First, if you like anime style stories this is a good book, if you like something lighthearted and fun, this is a good book. I want to stress this, the is a good book, just not a great book and honestly this is the problem.
So what is my problem with the book? Well you see, the flaws in the book, are ones that To Love Ru, and Japanese books in general don't have; IE the feel of social slant or it could just be my "SJW run for the hills sense" is binging because the tropes have been taken straight from Japan. This could just be me, but there were a few times with Karin, especially, that I felt there was too much raw raw go girl, women are perfect. This is fine in a manga or light novel, since I'm well aware its typically played for laughs, with the oh so perfect strict boss lady having a few flaws hidden away; like bemoaning her single life or being a slob or being a little too girly in private, something to balance out the perfect bad ass boss lady image. Maybe there is later in the series, but as is she's just a sadist and rude which, well I don't like those characters, especially if they are not given a reason for why they are that way. Again I'm trying not to judge since I know this trope and this is a first volume to a series. The biggest problem being that the MC comes off as preachy and naivety, especially when he monologues towards the end. Which is okay since he's 16 years old. If this was manga his character arch would be losing that naivety and learning what a hero actually is, you know grow up. However, this is not a manga and thus I can't help but feel uneasy. Add to this there was far to much anti-arranged marriage stuff to the point that I wanted to bang my head against the wall, she ain't a normal girl, its called noblesse oblige, bad things happen to everyone when the rulers forget this. However, again, this is not supposed to be a serious novel, which gives a feeling of whiplash which leave me a little off balance.
In the end, this is a decent novel, if you like manga or something lighthearted, give this a shot. I'll be waiting for the next book, to see how this goes and edit this review after that.
