Kazuma's first winter in another world isn't going so well. With companions like Aqua (Arch-priest), Megumin (Arch-wizard), and Darkness (Crusader), his party of advanced classes should be the most powerful in Axel--but they're so dysfunctional, even the easiest-seeming quest goes terribly awry, and they can barely save enough to afford a stable!

Game loving shut-in Kazuma Sato's life as a young schoolboy in Japan abruptly comes to an early end...or at least it was supposed to. When he opens his eyes, though, he sees a beautiful goddess that offers him a once in an after-lifetime chance to be reborn in a parallel world. The catch is that the world is violent and threatened by a growing evil! Fortunately, he can choose any one thing to bring with him. So he chooses the goddess, Aqua! And so his adventure with his gorgeous companion begins.

For 12 years, the virtual world of Yggdrasil has served as the playground and battlefield for the skeletal lord Momonga and his guild of fellow monsters, Ainz Ooal Gown. But the guild's glory days are over, and the game is shutting down permanently. When Momonga logs in one last time just to be there when the servers go dark, something happens - and suddenly, fantasy is reality. A rogues' gallery of fanatically devoted NPCs is ready to obey his every order, but the world Momonga now inhabits is not the one he remembers.

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.

The life of a traveling merchant is a lonely one, a fact with which Kraft Lawrence is well acquainted. Wandering from town to town with just his horse, cart, and whatever wares have come his way, the peddler has pretty well settled into his routine - that is, until the night Lawrence finds a wolf goddess asleep in his cart. Taking the form of a fetching girl with wolf ears and a tail, Holo has wearied of tending to harvests in the countryside.

lisa is back
This was very nostalgic as someone who grew up with the anime. I hope they continue even if it's an old series.

Great new experience for a classic fantasy/comedy
I've been at least aware of the Slayers series since elementary school, but this was my first direct experience with Hajime Kanzaka's original novels. For those also primarily familiar with the anime adaptations, this first novel served as the basis for the first 10 episodes of the 1995 TV show. Despite the differences in structure and flow, I couldn't help but be wrapped up in the nostalgia of recognizing many of the comedy beats that were intact between the mediums.
The afterword included in this translation includes a lot of interesting info about the original release. Kanzaka displays in this first volume a lot of attention laying the foundation of this fantasy world, and showcasing fun interactions between main character Lina's (not unfounded) confidence clashing with the various foils she bumps into. The scene locations and setting descriptions tend to fall lower in the novel's priority, often simply alternating from 'forest clearing' to 'roadside inn', which feels more repetitive than it may have otherwise been given the plot's strong forward momentum and the fairly short length, being a Light Novel.
Lisa Ortiz's narration was what sold me on this impulse purchase and exceeded what I had hoped for. For the entire audiobook's runtime she delivers a wonderful range for Lina's 1st person narration and dialogue alike, and lends a plethora of both grounded and comedic performances for the supporting cast. As Lina's actress across most of Slayers' English anime dubs, it's hard not to love the effort (and novelty) of Ortiz filling in the dialogue of other mainstays like Gourry and Zelgadis, or the energy she delivers for the likes of Zolf, Dilgear and Noonsa.
I hope that J-Novel continues to bring back Lisa Ortiz for audiobook releases of more novels in the series!
