Think you've had a bad day at work? Marcus definitely takes the cake.

First, he had a horrible customer during his shift. Then he got fired by his boss. And after that, he got shot to death during a robbery.

To top it all off, he awakened within the body of a weak and strange creature in a fantasy world full of deadly monsters.

And that's just Monday!

Now Marcus will have to find a way to survive as a Vex Queen, but to do so his own bravery and determination are not enough. He needs to build a Hive that will protect him and the monsters are only the first of many threats to come...

Experience the start of a LitRPG-lite adventure with a unique, Real-TimeStrategy twist. Follow Marcus's struggle to survive while also keeping his humanity as he leads a hive-minded race and builds an army in a hostile fantasy world full of goblins, knights, magic and dragons!

The narration is great.
But the writting is terrible.
The story itself is interesting and I enjoy the idea but the author definitely should have taken a class.

My other issue is the author's obvious lust for his own weird little bug girl while simultaneously alluding to homosexual interests.
Oh, and there was a nasty surprise towards the end. Where the main character talks about being a fan of WW2, then mentions his Italian heritage and that he had a Japanese and German friend... So, I'm pretty sure the author is either a Axis fanboy or worse. Not gonna support that BS.

I do not recommend this book.
But maybe there is something better written of similar ilk.

Writting is poor, story is good
