The Prince Has No Pants

Ben's Damn Adventure, Book 1

By: Matthew Howry

Narrated by: Johnathan McClain

All life on Earth has been stolen away by The System.

It was transported to another world at the behest of a distant galactic empire that lives in terror of humanity's potential.

Ben - just a normal, if not slightly above average guy - had been about to go on the first real vacation of his adult life. But plans changed. Now, he must contend with danger and mystery in a world full of monsters, magic, and treasure. Armed with nothing but his wits and a special item given to him by The System, he embarks on a damn good adventure.

Written by Matthew Howry, better known to Royal Road fans as Salty Waters.

Entertaining AF

super funny with some heart felt moments. just relax turn off your brain and enjoy the ride! I love Johnathan mcclain super funny voices and characters. I love it!

great narrator but

great narrator but the plot was slow and a bit distracted. I found the system/devil trite but could listen to the musings of the great white shark all day.

Too Short

A lot can happen in 9 hours, but I felt like not enough happened to get me hooked. I liked it and if you got credits to spare, get it. I'm just surprised the book ended where it did. Not a cliff hanger just, ok that's the next hill to climb. Seems like it needed another 4 hours to wrap up the book in a better place, but I guess the next one? If this series was 6 or 7+ books long and the first 2 were on audible plus, I'd probably binge them all, but now I'm afraid the next book won't end well either. I'll wait 4 years and come back. The power the MC has is fun.

Also if you don't like Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy... this book has a similar voice. Takes a while to get used to it.

beautiful written

this story was lived not heard or listened, seriously sa that it came to an end

Colorful language, slapstick laughs, with little life nuggets

Admittedly there is too much time on the space elves (possible spin-off perhaps). The ocean scene has its moments but it gets much better at the job interview as well, the next books are better so give it an honest shot.
There is lots of potty mouth but the series is hilarious! This was my first experience listening to Johnathan's narration and look forward to future listens in hopes of some sci-fi. I enjoyed every character. I'm glad I gave this series a chance. You may enjoy "Shopocalypes Saga" if you like Ben and his friends. This is my second series with Mathew, starting with "Dirk Cooper" also hilarious.
