Story
Just yesterday, Ben was a petty criminal getting by on fleecing New York’s one-percenters. Today, he's got a new face, a new name, and a new world to navigate. And Ben’s thinking maybe this time around, he’ll use his skills at disarming and deceiving to help out people other than himself. Maybe. Watching a medieval City Guard fight off a 20-foot-tall ooze that crawled up from the sewers will make you think twice about life decisions.

Humans have been pushed to the brink of extinction by an ever-evolving demonic threat. Portals are opening faster than ever, Towers are bursting into the skies, and Dungeons are being mined below the last safe havens of society. The demons are winning. Quest Academy stands defiantly against them as a place to train the next generation of Heroes. The Guild Association is holding the line but is in dire need of new blood and the powerful abilities they could bring to the battlefront. To be the saviors that humanity needs, they need to surpass the limits of those that came before them.

Greg and Julian need to make a choice—die in the tornado that’s sucked them up in their van, or agree to hunt monsters in a world full of magic and levels and, oh yeah…monsters. The two frat bros may be master ghost hunters to their podcast listeners, but they never expected their antics to be taken seriously by a goddess in another dimension. And since when are ghosts the same as monsters? Awkward. But when the other option is certain death, it seems like it’s worth giving it the old college try.

Gabe Skelter has a temper, which he likes to imagine has the effect of causing people to fear and respect him. On the contrary, his pudgy, underdeveloped body and negative personality make him more your standard outcast teenager. Worse still, he kinda knows what a jerkweed he actually is. Then, in the middle of a class trip, Gabe finds himself spirited away to Regaia: a world of magic, mayhem, and nerd-tastic adventure. Naturally, he’s completely ill-prepared. But in this realm, he’s a monstrous, muscular man of action.

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.

There is the promise of great rewards and power, he says, if Morgan manages to complete the Tower of Power.

Publisher's Summary
"Has your life here been so difficult? You seem to fail upward at every opportunity."
So says Careena, the hag teaching Clyde Hatchett how to use magic. It certainly doesn't feel like that to Clyde, who's still got a day job scraping mud (at least he hopes it's mud) out of monster pits, and whose "thieves' guild" is more concerned with baking cookies than with protecting him against a rival gang. He keeps accumulating roommates - like a freed sex slave and a retired paladin - who make him nervous, but for very different reasons. And let's not get started on the mimic that's taken up residence by Clyde's shower, or the supposedly tame grimeling in his closet....
And yet even with all the annoyances, distractions, and occasional death threats, Clyde's found himself at the center of a massive conspiracy to kill the Emperor. He's the only one with proof that could save the man, and take down an entire network of corrupt nobles, evil slavers, and power-hungry despots. Clyde really hopes Careena is right about him - the fate of the entire Empire depends on it.

Good story but ...
Good story but the author has an annoying attachment to cliffhanger endings. I say this after having gone through 8 books in the good guy series. The introduction of the Kobolds is fun and amazing.
I can get behind his bad guys are bad idea. And Clyde is a decent protagonist that that seems to have just to much on his plate but my god take a second to breath and plan my man.
I was also hoping that this character would be a little more intelligent than Montana. But in alot of ways he just is not and I am seeing some of the same problems I have with the good guys series on repeat here.
All that being said still a enjoyable book, especially if you can launch into the next one.

Complete waste of time
Nothing happens. The main character gets kidnapped repeatedly and doesnt seem to care. Possible interesting story lines are alluded to then abandoned, never to be mentioned again. A bunch of new characters are introduced then never allowed to talk. The main character gets a bunch of new skills that he completely ignores. I hated this book.

Awesome story, even better series
Eric Ugland has been writing some of the best recent stories they're engaging, sincere characters. Generally, the characters Ugland writes about are like many of the people I know in my personal life. The most fun characters in this story and series all have just a tiny bit of larceny in their hearts but at their core are good and decent people. Good story telling.

A great read good pace hated to see an end
I Tend to enjoy the fish out of water type stories where people have to learn their new environment. This may prejudice me to these books.. I also like the romanticism of the rogue type character. And medium fantasy of violence is not a problem for me I hope you enjoy Mr. Ugland books as much as I do.

If you loved The Good Guy Series, you will love this one. I highly suggest you ignore the summary of what this book is about cause it's very wrong. I think the author had it as a place holder and never updated it.

Eric doesn't disappoint another great book
Again another great book in the guys series I didn't want say good or bads since I believe it the all be tying in together. Was at 1 point drinking a soda when the author talks about one of the guards doing what any guard would do what any guard would ever do. And then he ran away screaming . I was drinking soda at the time I blea mountain pew out of my nose it was very painful but very funny. Good time can't wait to see how they tie to together.

Is that a bug on my windshield?
Nope, just a dagger in my eye.
Props to Eric Ugland on another excellent book in this series. This and 'The Good Guys' series are so good, I wish they were written a few years back so I could binge-listen to them. Lots of stealthy pursuits, court intrigue the loss of what seemed to be key 2nd tier players.
Neil Hellegers' performance is perfect for these series.
