Description
How well would you cope after being summoned to rule a kingdom in an RPG?
Sean de Courcy is a gamer with a maxed out warrior build on a popular MMORPG. When the desperate rulers of a declining kingdom need a warrior to help lead them to triumph over their enemies, their summoning spell picks Sean. Their world obeys the rules of an RPG, so although Sean has no real world fighting experience, he is exactly the person they need to manage the kingdom, increase the levels of the PCs, and lead their armies to victory.
An Isekai LitRPG with base building.
Advance Praise
***** What a Journey I just finished reading it and I must say it is well thought out and even the ending is awesome. Royal Road reader.
***** Going to Another World and Leveling Up A finished story that delivers litrpg goodness. The author treads tropes and turns them into a world that is their own. If you are looking to get lost in an original world and read about wars and leveling up, then this story is for you. Royal Road reader.
***** A Fun Epic of Kingdom Conquest I don't see too many LitRPGs focused on the 4X-style of play; that alone makes Summoned to an RPG World a rare thing. It really leans into that; from the get-go, Sean aka King Carlos is faced with powerful enemies, and there's rarely an opportunity to just sit back and grow his own crops. Royal Road reader.
***** Blows Expectations Wonderful. This story is great! For those of you who love Kingdom building sims this story is for you! The story has great pacing and you really feel the epicness of the battles. The characters are all well done even if not much time is spent with each individually outside of the main character. I guarantee that you will feel sadness at even the death of minor characters. Royal Road reader.
***** Once it Gets Going, It's Really Good Unusually for an Isekai novel, this one has the protagonist reincarnated as a really fat guy who can barely get around. It takes a few chapters to get going but once it does it's very compelling and full of memorable scenes. Royal Road reader.
***** On Ethics It is incredibly refreshing to have a fiction where the main character actually learns something valuable about ethical behavior, applies that to their actions, and is right to do so. Royal Road reader.

Featured Reviews
I have read a lot of LitRPG books recently. This is a little bit different than many because the main character is not an adventurer. Instead, he has been summoned to a medieval world where a kingdom on the edge of ruin needs him to replace the king to bring the country to victory. There are quests, battles and campaigns but the focus is on building the country and characters up. There is also friendship, betrayal, challenges, triumphs and tragedies.
I like how the character develops. Things do not go from one triumph to another; there are set backs and losses. This book has all the typical elements of an RPG story with levels and plenty of tables to see how the country and people progress. It is very long though, over a thousand pages. Parts do drag a little. Overall, I did enjoy this book.
Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for an ARC in return for an honest opinion.
