About this listen
After a tragic accident ends Samson's life, he's given a second chance by Aki, the grim reaper in a tracksuit.
Aki, a fellow fan of Samson's favorite light novel series, My Royal Academia, offers to help him, but only if he agrees to one condition: save the story from its hiatus.
Reincarnated into the very real world in the first chapter of the novel, Samson discovers he's been granted the unique ability of Jack of All Trades. Now able to learn any skill, talent, or weapon, Samson must navigate the everyday life of the prestigious Royal Academy, armed with the invaluable knowledge of the novel's most crucial secrets. But the stakes are higher than he could have ever imagined, as the fate of the story and his own life are inextricably linked.
Joined by the kind-hearted and determined Princess Victoria Somerset, her charismatic and confident brother Prince Nathaniel Somerset, and the wise and steadfast Mr. Stephen Ebenezer, Samson must rewrite the fate of My Royal Academia while embracing the challenges and joys of academy life.
It's a race against the clock to prevent the looming hiatus.

Story
In a blink, I found myself in an unknown land, greeted by the textbox of an unfriendly system. It wanted me to become a great hero, save the world, win the love of the people and all that crap. But this new world already had a hero. Why should I bust my ass, deal with dragons and the unknown, for people I didn't know? Let him deal with that. It's his job! So instead of being tempted by the system's nonsense, I chose a simple class. Potion maker. I wasn't interested in cultivating mana and defying the heavens, courting death, none of that crap.

Story
A world on the precipice of the apocalypse. A secret forged in the flames of war. A chance to start over. For John Sutton, only one of those three things matters. Retired from a decade of brutal war, he wants nothing more than a quiet pastoral life while he does his best to stem the steady increase of his Doom Points before they hit 100, signaling the start of the end. He’s been given a small farm on the outskirts of the empire as thanks for his service, but no matter how far he travels, it's impossible to escape the war's devastating effects on the world.

Off premise but still pretty good
The premise of this novel is that our main character dies and is given a second chance - by becoming a character in a web novel in order to save it from being cancelled by its rather hopeless author - one so bad that he named the main character 'Hero Goodlooking'. Ouch! It's an original premise, and it doesn't take itself too seriously; the novel made me laugh several times in the first hour!
But the premise of the novel is shaky. Death herself reminds our hero that he cannot become the main character in the novel, and tells him that he has to make My Royal Academia interesting to readers so it doesn't get cancelled. The implication is that he's there to make the plot more interesting and the main character more likeable. But although our hero gets quests to stop Hero Goodlooking from embarrassing himself, this novel isn't about Hero Goodlooking - in fact, he doesn't show up in most chapters. Instead, it's the story of the main character, who gets around the 'no becoming the main character' rule by declaring himself the villain and then ignoring the rule in the first place. He uses his knowledge of the web novel to get advantages and become strong, and soon finds himself embroiled in a quest to turn his backwater kingdom into a major player at the end of the year tournaments.
It's all fun, and I find myself liking the characters. But it's not what the novel claimed to be, which leaves me feeling a bit conflicted. As long as you don't pay attention to the rules, this is a fun, silly fantasy romp.
