About this listen

In a former life, Jack was gifted, meaning he possessed peculiar abilities. If rich folks found themselves in a jam, Jack could use his talents to get them out of it. Where others were sure to fail, Jack's aristocratic clientele could always count on him to finish jobs cleanly, efficiently, and leave no trace, for which his services commanded a hefty fee.

But one day, Jack picked a fight with the wrong man and his old life came to an end. But, as it turned out, his story was far from over.

A mysterious supernatural being whisked Jack's consciousness away and into the body of a young nobleman living in a different world in the multiverse—a magical one.

In it, he must play the part of Max Renard, illegitimate son of a traitor who was recently executed on orders from the king, which caused Max to lose his home and be forced to dwell in a small town on the western outskirts of the kingdom.

And now this new life-his last life—is the one he must lead . . .

This reminded me of the Legend of the arch magus, the MC is transport Roman new world, taking over the body of a mirror self and all their bodies ‘problems’.
The narration of good, and while the use of Monsieur did frustrate a few times, the narrator was clear and clear ash to understand with a good variation of accents.
The story flowed well and kept my interest that I looked forward to being able to listen to my next instalment. Looking forward to next instalment.

An excellent start, looking. Forward to seeing the story develop

The narrator did a great work.

enjoyed this

When it comes to magic, it has as much as Game of thrones (barely any). But it is interesting. MC relies on chance that writer gave freely. New life without memory is the same as death, not sure why last life matters!

This kind of character advancement I like, no useless numbers but “my reserve feels bigger”!

The only downside, there is no second book(yet), feels unfinished the same as GoT!

I recommend it possibly with the 2. Book!

A good story
