Summary

Once feared as the Dark Lord, I now seek a fresh start as a humble farmer.

Isekaied into a level 86 Necromancer-King's body, I leave his life of war behind in favor of peace in the idyllic Borderlands. Upon meeting the elven maiden Narya Summerdew and a razor-toothed half-elven child, the three of us form an unlikely improvised family in the hopes of remaining anonymous.

As we embrace the eccentric community of Gelderham, we find happiness in simplicity…But my past casts shadows on our growing bonds. How will Narya react when she learns her new husband was once the evil king set on destroying her people?

In this heartwarming tale of farms, villages, side quests, and level progression, unexpected bonds help a trio of charming characters learn the importance of love and family as secrets are unveiled and hearts are healed.

Dark Lord of the Farmstead is a cozy slice-of-life LitRPG. Enjoy a wholesome story fit for people who enjoy slow life fantasies with lower-than-average stakes and fun but flawed characters that you can’t help but fall in love with.

The Definition of Slice of Life

Absolutely fantastic. The story is engaging and interesting. The characters are flawed but that just makes seeing them grow and evolve that much more rewarding. The story had stats but they were used more as a light guidance/addition to the world rather than being super heavy and confusing.

The narration was spot on. Jonathan was very good but Jessica was the star of the show with the two main female characters. Can not wait until the next one comes out!

Strong entry to a new series

Good: Its exacly what it says on the tin, a coasy fantasy slice of life book with a hevy emphasis on slice of life. The adults also felt like adults witch is a big +. I also enjoy the idea of bbeg quiting to be a farmer.

Bad: I felt that the pasing was a bit of.

Overall: If you like the idea of a slice of life that isn't focused on teenagers, or if you want a book that you can just experience, then you'll probably like this book. and I'm excited for the sequel.

Fantastic

A quite cute story overall, hoping for more in the future but this one is good as a standalone story also. Won’t spoil much beyond that, this is a good one.

Very good slice of lite romance

Its just a really good slice of life romance between the two main characters taking place on a farm, with a bit of dark lord sprinkled in.
