DEATH FROM THE SHADOWS

Oda Akira is the kind of guy who people forget is even there. His unassuming nature pays off, though, when his entire class is swept away to a fantasy world, and he slips easily into his new role as a silent assassin. Between his suspiciously high starting stats and too many details that don't fit, Akira is sure something is wrong. But digging into royal secrets is a dangerous game, and when Akira uncovers an evil scheme, he also makes a powerful enemy--the very king who brought him to this world! With the help of the elven spirit medium Amelia, can he find the power to set things right, and get his revenge?

This isekai story completely pulled me in from start to finish. The world-building was vivid, the pacing sharp, and the characters felt alive — like I was actually watching an anime rather than listening to an audiobook.
The assassin being more overpowered than the hero was such a fun twist that kept things unpredictable and exciting. The narration brought the story to life, and I couldn’t stop listening once I started.
If you enjoy anime-style storytelling, strong character arcs, and a mix of humor and action, this is absolutely worth your time. Can’t wait for Book 2 — I’m all in for the next adventure!

I came here because of the anime. I listened to this book in one sitting. I could not stop listening to it. The performance was fantastic, the story had me locked in. it was so good. I got super excited when I realized I overlooked that volume too is already released. I'm going to listen to that now and I can't wait for volume three.

Loved it!
