About this listen

 The first book in an action-packed, witty LitRPG series about a regular giu given a farm to cultivate when the world told him he would never be a hero. But when he proves more resourceful than anyone expected, he draws the attention of some very dangerous monsters to his farm…

Nick was just your average overworked accountant…until he got isekai’d and then immediately rejected for “lacking hero potential.” Instead of a prophecy or a sword, he’s given a rundown farm in a cursed wasteland where seventeen previous owners died horribly. Lucky him.

But Nick isn’t as helpless as he looks. With mysterious strength, an eye for optimization, and a knack for flipping curses into perks, he starts rebuilding Blackthorn Farm from the ground up. What was once a death trap becomes a booming operation complete with monster livestock, magical crops, and an eclectic crew that includes a former elven slave turned manager, killer birds for security, and a shape-shifting dragon named Petunia.

As his power grows and the land begins to thrive, Nick draws attention from nobles, mages, and forces that might not be entirely mortal. Blackthorn Farm has secrets tied to a forgotten disaster, and Nick might be the only one who can uncover them…assuming he can survive the attention.

Great details, and great potential, but no challenges larger than exciting a normal building, there might be obstacles in the way but those are easily overcome and intended to pose no challenge. A cursed farm with curses and artifacts everywhere? brilliant setting, but all problems are solved immediately with whatever he picked up last and the only tension in the story came from me expecting there to be a bigger plot or challenges. -- spoilers ahead-- it might count as cozy (so the image on the front cover is a really bad example of the content), but almost everyone he has around is a slave that he owns - the story does touch on how ethical it is to own a slave that you treat like a person, when others treat their slaves more harshly but that's about all I can say on it.
