An Education in Magical Affairs: An Isekai LitRPG

I'm Not the Hero, Book 3

De: SourpatchHero, Tommy Kerper

Narrado por: Nick Podehl

A zero-turned-hero continues his action-packed journey to greatness through a world of magic and mayhem in this exciting LitRPG fantasy series.

On Earth, the scrawny Orrin may have been a big nothing, but he had a bigger buddy in his athletic bestie, Daniel. They were inseparable, like two sides of the same coin. But when a tragic accident transported them to an RPG-like reality, that coin got seriously flipped.

At first, Daniel was the natural-born hero, and Orrin the dead weight. But Orrin found himself growing beyond the role of sidekick, gaining powers no one had ever heard of. Genuine hero stuff.

Alas, trying to be a hero is how he ended up a prisoner of the ruler of Odrana, and his even more conniving mother, Anabella, who sees potential in Orrin as a political pawn. All Orrin has to do to gain his freedom is infiltrate an elite magical academy, make friends with some very influential students, and help maneuver Anabella back into power.

Unfortunately, school in this realm is pretty much the same as school on Earth—albeit with less bullying and more attempted murder. Now, Orrin's only hope is for Daniel to somehow find him and do what he does best: Save Orrin's ass.

The third volume of the hit LitRPG fantasy series—with more than 600,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Better Each Time!!

Loved it!!! Can’t wait for the next one! May not be the Hero but he is a hero!

Love Love Love this series.

This series was my introduction to LitRPG books and I have not found one that keeps my attention as this series has. Some people may find the "reading stats" portions to be annoying but I absolutely do not mind it.

I feel like this series was made for Nick Podehl to narrate. Nick sounds like how the main character would sound. It's so good. The writing is good, narration is good... It's just great all around.

Highly recommend this series

great as always

I don't have much to criticize about book 3, it was good, if not short, this one had a lil more politics than I liked, it wasnt bad but it felt to long, other than that I already purchased book 4, looking forward to it :)

This had everything

One of my favorite series, got me hooked on let rpg. I was so excited for this book and did not disappoint. I really like the new characters and their development in this new chapter. This was dope

great book. Next one please

This wasa great book. I love all of the characters especially Orrin, Daniel, and Maddy . But the characters Daniel met at school where amazing complex and realistic.. This is a great story about how to work thru problems, magic, heroes, espionage and possible demon outbreaks.

Love the flow of the story and all the humor thrown in.

I am really looking forward to the next book.
