In a world on the brink, survival isn’t just a game—it’s the only game. But when only one soul holds all the cards, they get to play however they want.

Argrave, the royal bastard of House Vasquer, went into his magic apprenticeship cruel and awkward, yet left it with a neat dignity and an acerbic wit. But beneath the veneer of self-assurance, the body’s new soul is wrestling with the dread of existence in a reality that once existed only in the pages of fantasy.

In the blink of an eye, a wiki editor’s deep and somewhat unhealthy understanding of a game becomes useful, usable knowledge when he inexplicably replaces the once-cruel royal bastard. Before he can start to push his frail body to use his deep understanding of the lore to handle the imminent apocalypse, or go off to stop an invasion, there’s a more personal task he needs to handle first. His cousin has a knife in her hand, and death in her eyes.

Luke’s voice is very poor on this one. The story is very good overall despite the acting.

Great story - Bad acting

The main character in this was a breath of fresh air for this genre. The story was fun and characters well fleshed out. I can't wait for book 2 😁

Galamon, I choose you! Use Bite. It was super effective! Hargrove used charm. Galamon is confused...

The character sounds like the joker a lot of the time. It is interesting but it’d be a second or third pick if I had nothing else. Looks like it has a lot of potential so who knows.

Ok. Good enough listen.

It threw me off a bit at first with how it opened up and the way the author writes. After the first 30 min however I was hooked and couldn’t stop listening. I can’t wait to see how this is going to go.

Unexpectedly Delightful

Fun story even with dialogue simplistic in places. I’ve never left a review before but had to say the narrator was maddening. His ’acting’ was beyond lame, goofy, and painful.

PAINFUL ACTING by narrator

I really like how the author brings the main character into the story. The way that the main character is given an advantage over others in the book is a unique approach. I would have liked to see more background details regarding the protagonist and their traits. Why they are so obsessed about washing their hands and is that something that comes from their world or the one they find themselves in?

Good book with a unique story

Solid start to what looks to be a wide open world and series. The MC thinks he is stuck in a game world that he is very intimate with, but stuck as one of the lesser characters that often gets overlooked. Now as this background character he must stop numerous battles, civil wars, and insurrections. He does so with gusto all while causing everyone to look right while he absconds left.

Witty banter, and a fun world make this a story worth trying.

Hilarious Start

I like how Argrave's arrival has been handled. It's almost an avoidance but it stops the story from getting bogged down with tales and stories of his past. I honestly don't know if I have seen it handled that way before.

A different way to address Isekai
