Publisher's Summary
On the world of Marconen, your first Break determines the trajectory of your life. Calvin chose magic.
Without proper schooling or a mentor, the boy is dragged by the cruel whims of fate across the face of the planet, blending together different schools of magic and powerful abilities to create something new.
But there's a deeper secret behind his success. Why was he born an exile from his country? Why is his System so strange, and why does it keep talking to him?
As the march of time continues, something evil grows in power across the ocean.

Becoming a knockoff Dracula in tight leather pants was never part of Vincent’s plans. Neither was being summoned to another world by a cult of vampire wannabes. But both happened.

The world is filled with nightmares, and the looming threat of losing his soul stands between his goal and his reality, so it’s not like it will be too hard or anything. Hell should tremble. A good man is going to war.

Callum had seen things all his life. There are monsters and beasts living among people, but he learned very early not to admit such things, not if he didn’t want people to think him crazy. It turns out that the supernatural is real, but at 30, Callum has no desire to be part of that secret. Not that he has a choice when it turns out he is a mage, albeit one that hasn’t cast any spells in all his life. There are requirements, duties, and education that the powers that be insist he be subject to. To hell with that.

Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body. Arrogant Masters? Heavenly Tribulations? All that violence and bloodshed? Yeah, no thanks. I’m getting out of here. Farm life sounds pretty great. Tilling a field by hand is fun when you’ve got the strength of ten men—though maybe I shouldn’t have fed those Spirit Herbs to my pet rooster.

I never really expected to go from full-time Neet to a God, but you know how life hits, right? Well, it doesn't really matter in the end. What matters is how I got there. You know how I said this ain't that type of guide? Well, maybe it can be. Maybe you'll figure some things out along the way—who knows? Actually I do, and you probably won't, but who cares, right? So take a seat in your mother's basement ,or whatever hole you live in, and listen to the story of how I, a full-time Neet, became a God.

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.

A bit unbalanced but overall solid sci-fi fantasy
I'm coming to this book after reading the author's superhero novel 'Industrial Strength Magic'.
'The Problem With Princesses' is a fantasy novel that is reminiscent of Industrial Strength Magic in some ways. There's camaraderie and mutual lust between teens, a well done LitRPG system with stats that is slowly making the main character super powerful, and a fascinating behind the scenes background that hints at being science fiction. As the book progresses, you begin to realize that those hints are becoming more and more obvious, and that the book is deeper than it seems at first.
But unlike Industrial Strength Magic, the Problem with Princesses is a lot more openly salacious, and the banter, while excellent, is balanced with 21st century dialogue from a mystery programmer character who's funny but out of place in a fantasy world. Which is part of the mystery around the setting, but still feels odd. And like Industrial Strength Magic, the book suffers from no clear plot line - it seems to bounce from one situation to the next without the main character really having a plan.
Meanwhile, the book is expertly narrated by several performers, and it's got accents galore. The characters are likeable and the background is fleshed out. I also enjoy that the main character is growing in power but still not close to being unstoppable.
I'm engaged enough by the book to keep reading the series. I want to know more about Calvin's powers, the background to this world and its magic, and what's happening with The One. I do wish the book was a little more streamlined and - surprisingly - a little less in your face about sex. The one enemy princess, for example, is over the line I'm comfortable with, which makes it hard to recommend this book to anyone I know in real life.

not for me
this one was in my wishlist for a while. i should have left it there for a while longer. it started off okay but floundered pretty quickly. A scatterbrained plot and storyline that could not focus on anything. I really wanted this one to be good, but the more content I read/listen to in the Litrpg genre, very few stand out. I had hopes this one would but it fell very short. I will not waste a credit on book two. maybe it will get better, but unless it's on sale or free.....
