About this listen
Jason Drake's life ended when a drunk driver killed his family and ruined his dream of playing pro football.
Ten years later, death finally claimed him.
When a goddess offered him a second chance, he took it without hesitation, finding himself restored to his prime in a fantasy world. As her Champion, trading an easier start for an Achievement system that promises greater growth seemed the obvious choice.
But Falerith is a brutal world filled with danger and magic. Savage Gnolls pillage the land, and sinister monsters rise from the depths, hinting at even darker threats.
Fortunately, the goddess twisted the threads of fate, so that powerful allies are drawn to him. Now, if only he can survive long enough to meet them.
Spawning alone in the desert without a scrap of equipment, can he learn quickly enough to not only survive but build an empire?

Keeping his head up and moving forward was what Koda Burke was best at. After having to emancipate himself as a teen and find his own way at a young age, it became part of who he was. The most important part, or so he thought. Until that the faithful day that chance aligned with fate, and his true worth lay revealed when he met with a dying goddess, someone who had lost hope and all but given up until she felt the call from across the void between dimensions.

Arden was left in the village by a dying mage, who never returned. With no way out of the village on his own, he had always held onto the hope that one day his magic would awaken and give him access to his spheres. But he’s about to turn eighteen and it’s never come. Instead, he’s settled into his lot as a sarcastic and quick-witted innkeeper. That all changes one night when his old flame, who escaped the village to become a mage’s anchor, returns. Ard’s life is about to go through some dramatic changes, and he’s not ready for them.

Sometimes in life, you feel like the world is out to get you. Nothing ever seems to work out the way you want it to, and everything just goes wrong all at the same time. But you have to bear up under the weight of life and just keep swinging. It can't stay bad forever, right? That is what Casey Sullivan believed when he spent his entire young life in an orphanage, fighting for scraps and doing his best to not get shanked by the youth gangs there. When he had the opportunity to make a difference, he seized it with both hands and did everything in his power to pass the police academy.

The Krysfelt Academy for Girls is the most prestigious academy in the Magocracy, and it’s about to get its first male student… Like most guys, I never expected to see the inside of that fabled place. But when I’m assigned the Enchanter class—previously reserved for girls—an invitation to Krysfelt is part of the deal. To earn my place, I’ll have to win over the fiery headmistress and the monster girl students—catgirls, orcs, wolfgirls, dryads, goblins—you name it… And that’s not even mentioning the pretty (but slightly insane) tiefling girl who believes she and I are destined to bond…

The day his life changed started out exactly like he had come to expect. His car died on a rarely traveled road, and he broke his toe shortly after dodging the one other car on the road. When it stopped and backed up to him, the license plate read “LADYLUK”, adding insult to injury.

Have you ever come across those stories with heroes who knew just how to get things done? The ones who were masters in five different martial arts, and knew ten ways to skin a bear after killing it with their bare hands? Yeah, that wasn’t me. Hell, I had trouble asking a girl out on a date. But someone in clerical must have made an error. Because I got ripped from an airplane on my way home after my last day in the Coast Guard. I mean, come on, I wasn’t even in one of the hardcore branches of the military or anything!

Destined to be a mage, I’m plucked from my village alongside a feisty redhead so we could journey to the fabled city of the high mages to learn how to control and wield the aether. The road there isn’t going to be easy though.

The change most recent for Tristan Walker was all the free time he now had after finding his girlfriend in a compromising position with a few other people. He went back to his normal routine of life and had mostly forgotten the indiscretion when he found himself waking on his couch after a bright flash of light, with two suns hanging in the sky.

Alex was a gamer. Gaming wasn't just a lifestyle. The essence of his favorite hobby was woven into his DNA. At least, that is what his parents liked to say after he pulled an all-night slaughterfest. The hordes of Morlock never saw him coming. What his parents didn't understand was playing games was Alex's chance to be the hero. The release of Revenant Online was going to change everything.

Most mortals would kill for the chance to live a life at court. To wade into the intrigue of noble life, uphold honor and defend your lineage and kingdom. Nero wasn't a mortal, though, and he'd endured millennia striving to fend of rivals in the vast emptiness of the Abyssal Plain. For the Ninth Prince of Eternis, such was his destiny. That all changed when he stepped through the veil and took on a mortal body.

Jason wakes in the most unpleasant of circumstances, in a body not his own and in a world most certainly unfamiliar. The finery and splendor of the Grand Imperial Prince Magnus Torvon Thull Heir Apparent to the Thull empire is a world of gold and silver beset upon fine black and white marble. The women of this Grand Prince’s empire clamor for his attention amongst the parties, drugs, and (not-so-great minstrel music). Jason will have to fix the decrepit state Magnus’s body has sunken into from a life of decadent pleasures. While figuring out what the heck is going on.

Have you ever come across those stories with heroes who knew just how to get things done? The ones who were masters in five different martial arts, and knew ten ways to skin a bear after killing it with their bare hands? Yeah, that wasn’t me. Hell, I had trouble asking a girl out on a date. But someone in clerical must have made an error. Because I got ripped from an airplane on my way home after my last day in the Coast Guard. I mean, come on, I wasn’t even in one of the hardcore branches of the military or anything!

Wonderful Performance, fantastic story!
I listened to Bastian Knight's other series, finding it a fun ride so I gave this one a go. The instant the book started, I became hooked and found myself getting to the end too quickly, which is hard to do on a 20 hour audiobook. The characters were great, the story compelling, and I eagerly await book 2.

If you can get past the first 15 chapters, this book is very good
I really love this book from chapter 16 through the last chapter 60 something. The first 15 chapters are a slog to get through. I blame the editor for this. They should’ve told the author to condense the first 15 chapters into three chapters. So much of it is just repetitive and the MC thinking to himself.
However, once you get through those first 15 chapters of this book it is EXCELLENT! I have added it to my favorites list, but I will never listen to the first 15 chapters again.
The female narrator was superb while the male narrator was not as good. I will definitely buy the next book in the series.

Wonderfully performed and a good story
First, let me see that raya Kane was an amazing choice for the solo female narrator. She has a great range of voices, can do a good male voice, and really lends the erotic oomph to those sexy scenes and characters.
I enjoyed the setting and the different characters. if I have to lay a criticism I only have two really.
One, Jason being a former athlete and relating everything back to sports is something I cannot relate to and probably most of your readership are the same. The idea that the Jock got an Isekai afterlife really grinds my gears.
The second is Syndi, I enjoy her character and dynamic greatly as I love the domme drow archetype and enjoy the way she calls Jason "Male". The downside for me was their first scene where we find out...
(Spoilers ahead)
..that she is used to high priced giggalos and to be able to even keep up with her he has to get a magic boon from a goddess. Like. really? was that necessary? It's one thing to realize in the back of your mind that being as old as she is, she probably has a sexual past, but to throw it in the readers face and make the Mc need magic to keep up to her standards paints Syndi in a bad light and I think will ruin her for a lot of readers beyond her personality.
Again, I enjoy a dark elf Domme mommy and can see the hints of care beyond the front she puts on, but I'm already a fan and enjoy the Tsundere archetype as well (looking at you little lioness) so I'm not the one you ha e to win over.
but yes, I am picking up what your putting down, I enjoyed this book immensely and can't wait for a follow up.

Main Character's tenacity.
The graphic sexual encounters were minimal, and not a wash, rinse, repeat thing.
Narration was good though there was some dialect influence on a few words strange to me in their pronunciation. For instance Brazier pronounced as Brassiere.
Yes indeed it a keep to me. I found it overall to be a good listen

Weak Dialogue and characters
First of all, this book wasn’t completely awful but the dialogue, weak MC and some female characters were as usual damaged and underwhelming which ruined the story for me. Moreover this book was long and boring at times and not very impactful.

Week main character
The performance is very good. I enjoyed some of the world building and the supporting characters. The main Character is a boring gamer that is constantly reminiscing about his days playing football. He stumbles through battles and somehow builds a harem.

Decent, has some problems that’s gave me the ick,
First the VA did good most of the time. Fell flat on a few lines that jarred me out of the immersion. However, the overall was good.
The MC is a dumba$$ at the worst times. Forgetting about newly learned skills, trying the same thing even tho it failed miserably the first few times.
Many times I was surprised by the missed opportunities.
He does make mostly good choices. However in a fight he’s pretty hot or cold. Either he’s op or a stumbling drunk swinging a stick.
Not to mention really hot under my skin how he lets the women treat him. It was going well to start but once the drow showed up… just no. Straight himbo energy all the way. Treated like meat and he just lets it slide. Yup if this was done the other way round. Ohh snap what a problem would it have caused.
I also get not every person will be a virgin or pure. Whatever you call it. I get that not my problem. But the same character that been treating MC like an object. But it’s ok because she’s been through a lot. Is “ a hundreds year old woman who indulges in the best male pornstar/prostitutes that could have been thought up for centuries.” Thus the MC must use magic from the future seeing character that’s basically leading the whole book. This magic will make him preform better in bed because he’s clearly not adequate in that department to even meet her lowest standard. Which is coming from the only one to have slept with him. Wow what a confidence booster.
This is the same woman who leads the whole book with her foresight and claims she loves him. As she starts Laughing at his face when he expressed concern over this and other relationship issues.
Idk how to feel anymore about this book gave me whiplash.
In short the story is ok if you don’t take it too seriously. The MC is a borderline doormat for the woman in his life. Not to mention weaker than everything and the fact stated often. Though he’s growing fast,.. also stated often, Lastly.. really centuries old hoē bag that is sexist and narcissistic.
Nvm. Ok that’s all I got,
