The wildly popular Korean novels that inspired the hit webtoon!

Ever dreamt of waking up inside a novel? For Kim Roksu, this dream becomes reality when he finds himself in the shoes of Cale Henituse, the lazy, wine-loving son of a count--and punching bag for the novel's destined hero. Determined to dodge his grim fate, this new Cale Henituse vows to rewrite his story, aiming for a life of leisure far from heroic deeds and inevitable beatdowns.

But the path to a peaceful life is twisted by irony. As Cale plots his escape from destiny, he inadvertently gathers a motley crew of magical allies--including a haughty baby dragon and two mischievous kitten shapeshifters. Every attempt to avoid heroism entangles him further in a whirlwind of unforeseen adventures, proving that sometimes the best heroes are the ones who resist the call.

Loved the story development, tho reading the manga, he seems almost emotionless. Love this tho.

Great story line

Great story, the voice actor just has a little problem with doing women’s voices (which is typical for male voice actors)

Mostly awesome

Really good

the dragon's voice should be cutier. I really enjoyed the story but the slight translation changes made the story lose some charm.

loved the story but the translation lost some culture going to english

The main character keeps saying he doesn’t want to get involved, that he wants to stay out of the plot and that he will live quietly but somehow keeps doing the opposite. It’s amusing how he finds excuses for his actions, justifying them as necessary for his life as a future slacker. To everyone else he seems to be either ambitious or acting kind and noble.
I wish there were a couple more chapters read before it ended. A major event was saved for the next volume so this first book ends on a frustrating cliffhanger! I will definitely purchase the next volume when available.
Listening to the book was worthwhile. I got to hear the names being pronounced properly but I wish they could have added actual cat meows instead of having the reader meow…he does okay but it’s just awkward imagining a grown man meowing.

Interesting Male Lead

I loved the fun twist on the villain/villainess iseki trope I'm a huge fan of the genre but an even bigger fan of this series I really hope they create a large series for me to enjoy as I feel I could never be bored of Cale and his adventures. this is the story of a man bring isekied into a week villain from the first book of a series he had just stared as someone who hate anything complicated he happily uses the fact that he's supposed to be a lout to take what he thinks is the easier route leaving the more difficult stuff to people more willing and ready for such tasks. it's fun and interesting I fell like this world has so much in it that there could easily be hundreds of chapters written about it

this story about a isekied man was fun and unique

I've followed the story since it was only 30 or so chapters long and I've always wanted it be adapted into a audiobook and now it has. So yay for that. Wish they used the translation from the online translator (if you know you know) and not the seven seas one(no hate but it loses some of the je ne said quoi)
And, while the voice actor is quite good(easy to understand and with proper annunciation), I don't think he researched and/or read enough of the source material to properly assign the voice of the characters. Raon, Choi Han, Lark, etc. Raon sounds way too raspy and harah for a child(On and Hong sound convincingly like children though) Choi Han and Lark both sound like 30 year old chain smokers. Choi Han, okay maybe cause he is 17 and some teen boys have rough voices, but Lark is described as a 13/14 tall gangly and weak cause of his pure wolf blood which causes him to be 'immature physically in his human form' and 'Overly large and powerful in his wolf form'. There are other characters that weren't given proper voices but these 3 stood out the most.
Still over all a good performance.

Finally an Audiobook

The narrator did a good job. The book is really good. I cannot wait for the next one to come out!

Loved the book

A fun isekia that is oddly more realistic as the mc focuses on how to make his own life better for retirement, the other characters around him are in awe of his clever plans without having every girl of every moe suddenly appearing and throwing themselves on him.

A strong male protagonist without the annoying flock of girls

This is one of my favorite stories, first reading the fan translation. When it got an official one I was very excited! Then it got an audiobook!! I wasn’t a fan at first on how the narrator voiced the black dragon. I always imagined a cute voice. But the gremlin voice grew on me. It’s funny now.

Favorite Story getting an audiobook!!!
