Bog Standard Isekai by Miles English

What a nice novel to read - I'm up to book 2 ch 12.

We have a person isekaid (computer science nerd, not some former assassin or special forces or something) into the body of a child which was trapped in a village with undead running about destroying everything. This is in a greater region called the Boglands which is part of a nation.

There is a system, classes such as leatherworker, warrior, farmer, bard, that kind of thing. People have stats that they can raise by leveling or training them. The exception is children, whose status is locked until they're about 14.

Now the plot so far is holding out then making a living in a medieval type town. The boglands are threatened by the existence of the undead army, there are evil classes like witch, corpse eater, and so forth that plague the civilized world. The local and national governments try to root them out and destroy them.

The novel is a decent paced slice of life thus far in the world. Quite descriptive, quite immersive, and people act like people normally should act, without the young masters, kowtowing, or "You dare!"

I don't want to spoil the novel, really, so I won't discuss the class of the MC. He is a "child" adopted by a guardian "illusionist" who knows about his past life. The MC is a balanced, normal person. On the kinder, more patient side of the spectrum. Not willing to romance "children" his age.

The book is quite impressive so far, a pity it has so few chapters. Of course, in a printed book, it would be considered a normal sized first book of a series. I'm looking forward to following it some more.

He took his class in Part 3 Chapter 16. I guess the weaver will die now.

story was ok but nothing new

I hope novel gathers up more momentum, some parts seem kinda slow but alright, character development is alright as well seems pretty decent

Another isekai.... Well it is raining isekai these days

In general, not bad. I hope that the novel will gain momentum when the МС gets his class

An ordinary story with a smart mc, although the plot doesn't have a new thing or anything like that it is strangely an amazing work
Rank B+
