When an ambitious teenage girl from Earth finds herself in a magical realm, she could be the hero—but she'd prefer to be the villain.

When power-hungry Everly is reborn into a medieval world where elemental magic rules and she receives her elemental servants—the oddly sadistic Eris and the fun-loving Titania—years earlier than one typically would, she knows she's destined for a command of necromantic magic the likes of which her peers can only dream.

Though she's the bastard daughter of a count and a precariously positioned concubine, Everly is determined to be a conqueror, warlord, and queen. She could be the hero of the realm, the person to save everyone, with her protectors—the Silver Lance—and her beautiful mage lover by her side.

But Everly's no hero. She's an aspiring villain, seeking the freedom that comes with doing wrong. And before long, she'll make everyone fear the name of the Empress . . .

The first volume of the hit portal fantasy series—with more than 400,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

She's crazy to be sure, but it was a crazy ride that could be enjoyed all the same. the voice acting was good but I felt a lot of the male voices had the same tone but there only so much to be done with one voice actor.
There are some disturbing parts to be sure so I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who can't handle awful acts but I doubt anyone thinking of listening to this would be that unsettled by such stories as it's obvious what kind of story it is. I will be continuing onto the second book when it's out as I'm interested in getting to the wars.

First, this book has some offensive content and socital call outs, the MC is a degenerate, but gods the humor is good.

I had mixed feelings about this story. The performance was fantastic, I've never listened to Hollie Jackson narrate before but she did such a variety of characters, voices and inflections fantastic, I was genuinely impressed. The writing felt a bit all over the place, and while I did appreciate all the pop culture references, there were plenty of things with the main characters viewpoints.. and direction that were a bit much for me. Support characters went from being reasonably deep to being super 2d, which I've seen in plenty of LN's, so wasn't a huge surprise, but was pretty random. There were some really amazing scenes that were really good though, and ideas they author surprised me with, but.. it felt very up and down. I did spend a few times debating finishing the book, but did end up going through all of it.

An interesting evil story take
