Summary

The world as we knew it is gone. Food and water are poison. Learn the new rules or die trying.

Eli "Nacho" Naches is a fearsome assassin who has lost everything in a post-apocalyptic world full of monstrous creatures. He knows where he fits in this horror show, and he’s only been hanging around to see what’s going to be thrown at him next. When he’s finally put in chains and sent to the chopping block, he goes readily...only to be unexpectedly sent back in time to his younger body with his memories intact and the chance to make a difference.

But Nacho isn’t interested in saving the world. He just needs to save the people who matter to him and give them a chance to survive in a world where everything but the air itself is poison. Knowing that all their lives are on the line, Nacho the battle-scarred killer needs to get his college-age friends to listen to him, plan their builds, and secure a safe location to bunker down. Obviously, each of those goals is an epic quest all on its own.

Welcome to the Juxtaposition. May your future be delicious.

Krout’s best book yet, brilliantly performed and recorded!

I am no newcomer to Dakota Krout’s books, with the Completionist Chronicles being my absolute favourite series… until now!

This first instalment in the Cooking with Disaster series is absolutely superb - a brilliant new take on the post-apocalyptic, ‘back in time’ LitRPG genre. With well-crafted, relatable characters, a hugely compelling plot, and the System that we have all come to know and love, I found myself unable to stop listening and finished the book in two days, despite having a very busy work schedule.

The narrator’s performance is also excellent, giving life and personality to each and every character. It is read at a good pace, giving you time to take information in whilst still having a sense of jeopardy.

As we should expect of Audible Studios and its engineers, the audio was capture, mixed and mastered expertly, leading to a very good listening experience.

I cannot recommend this audiobook enough, and am extremely excited for the next instalment (which I have already pre-ordered).

Bravo!

Another Winner From Dakota Krout

A unique storyline with a pace like his previous book the Ritualist. Lots of comedy moments and food related puns. I didn’t laugh like I did on previous books but I also didn’t put it down until it was finished!

From Assassin to Common Cook

Really enjoyed the first book in Dakota's new series. The character development and relationships with his friends are believable. Plenty of puns and banter alongside the delicious delicacy development of the cooking system.

I am looking forward to where the series leads.

Great story.

This was a very funny litRPG post apocalyptic time-travel story. At this point I know what I’m getting into when I pick up a Dakota Krout book and I’m always here for it. The side characters and the friendship of the main trio felt genuine. My only gripe was the MC’s reluctance to use his cooking skills for a vast majority of the book. Really only at the very end does he actually start cooking regularly and improving on the food choices. Overall a solid book, and there’s still so much more we don’t know about other apocalyptic threats, the system as well as the cross humans. Can’t wait for the next one. 4.4/5

This book would make a great isekai anime

It was really a good book. Throughout reading it, I was picturing an anime protagonist. I recommended to any lover of the isekai genre
