Unexpectedly a child again in a new world, unlike the one he left, Kirk must make new friends, fit in, and learn to eke out a new existence. Disabled by the accident that led to the death of the child whose body he accidentally inhabits, Kirk must get clever if he’s going to find a way to survive.

Death had only ever been a small misunderstanding for the high mage. After his seventh reincarnation, he'd begun thinking of it differently, viewing it as nothing more than a slight hiccup in his plans. But he'd forgotten one thing: When those plans get in the way of those higher up the ladder, punishment is soon to follow. And one more death brought faint consolation.

Well-written but generic
I get the feeling the author doesn't like the genre they're writing in. it's well-written but cookie-cutter feel is accentuated by the lack of a passionate, human reader.

Creative Isekai
I really enjoy this story so far. With the exception of a few small virtual voice errors, it flows very well. Inflections could be improved upon to engage the listener more, but what was written is very strong.

Great twist on the "LitRPG" type, more Isekai
New twist of an adult from Earth ending up as a kid in a D&D sort of realm with magic and low technology. Some bits started a bit rough, almost like it was an AI written story in spots but overall the concept is good and the later books really shine. I think the author had a bit of trouble trying to figure out the path to get from the beginning to where the idea really kicks off in later parts of book 2 through 4 (awaiting book 5 right now).
There's the usual computer narration glitches of "bow" being boʊ (like tying a bow) or baʊ (bending over for respect) as well as "Yeah" being "Yay" vs "Ya". Once you get past continual glitches ("Yeah" is used a lot in the book), the enunciation is clear and easy to understand for somebody with less than good hearing.
The books in this series are also longer than the usual 8-9 hour parts of stories stretched out to be as many books as possible for more sales, a practice which makes me abandon that type of marketing. This series does break between chapters but not simply stop in the middle of a paragraph once the 9 hour mark is met. Each story arc is moved forward to a low spot and some teaser for the next story arc is in place at the need of the book, they don't simply stop in the middle of a story arc which is another thing I like about these.
I would say new author but with ideas like this one I hope to see more from this author.

AI Voice is above average
If you're familiar with the Isekai genre then this review is for you. I'm a fan of Isekai and I appreciate the depth of the protagonist. Some of the world overlap is common place but for the most part the depth of interactions are new. The AI voice is better than other I've heard. It's a little more smoother but there's a few hiccups. Yeah is pronounced yā instead of yeŭ. Kinda distracting.but as I said better than most.

Good Slice-of-life progression story.
Really like the storyline, no OP litrpg MC (as of yet) wish is refreshing. Well written and engaging, listened to it in almost one session. :)
The virtual narrator was a little flat at times, and I’m sure a professional narrator would make the story come even more to life.

A great slice of life story. Poor economics
A great slice of life isekai. If you are looking for an easy listen, look no further.
The Good:
I enjoyed it so much that I listed to the second story directly after finishing the first (even though I had an unused credit.
The bad:
The economics are very poorly done.
The neat:
The story is read by an A.I. which makes some of the pronunciation and pacing interesting.
The story and was included with my subscription at the time of my listed, along with the following tales in the series.
