For 12 years, the virtual world of Yggdrasil has served as the playground and battlefield for the skeletal lord Momonga and his guild of fellow monsters, Ainz Ooal Gown. But the guild's glory days are over, and the game is shutting down permanently. When Momonga logs in one last time just to be there when the servers go dark, something happens - and suddenly, fantasy is reality. A rogues' gallery of fanatically devoted NPCs is ready to obey his every order, but the world Momonga now inhabits is not the one he remembers. The game may be over, but the epic tale of Ainz Ooal Gown is only beginning....

A decent start to an epic story of conquest

Of course, I’d be partial to the idea of Overlord as an audio drama; wherein the actors from the show performed the book. However I know scheduling conflicts could definitely wreck such an idea. There were times when it was hard to tell certain character’s voices apart, especially during Ainz’ and Gazef’s conversation due to how similar the voices were.
A very small, albeit nitpicky thing that I found myself bothered by was the pronunciation of the names of the 9 realms from Norse mythology; ‘Nifl-hay-m’ rather than ‘Nifl-high-m’, and so on. It just seemed to catch my ear whenever I heard it.
That being said, I’d love to see more of the light novels become audiobooks in the future. Chris is quite the talented individual, and it’s always fun to have a new medium to enjoy something you like through.

Really great

The story itself is very well written with only a few translation errors, Ex. the name of the character Bukubukuchagama. Bukubuku meaning lose fitting or baggy and chagama meaning tea kettle; so when they translated her name into English they went with the word "Bubbling Tea Pot." Not a major point, just something I made note of.
All in all, its an extremely well written book with a stellar vocal performance by a professional in his field, a must buy and I hope they make the rest of the series soon AND keep Chris Guerrero as the narrator. I WILL be listening to this on repeat for quite a few re-listens just because of that.
Read by the English VA For Ainz himself!
