Description

Book 1- Chosen of the Endless One

Amos got in a car accident, and he didn't get isekaied, reincarnated or transmigrated! That happened five years later when his transplanted heart failed. But why would the Endless One grab an artist and animator to run a barony? What would the knowledge of thousands of hours of watching YouTube videos do to help a struggling barony prosper? Could it help shield the barony from the coming civil war of the kingdom of Falmoren?

Book 2- Descended of the Gods

Amos accepts his role as baron and starts to develop into the type of ruler his subjects hope for. At the same time, the war against Hitub continues, and the rebel factions of the current government continue to grow in power. Can Amos navigate the politics of the kingdom while a new threat to his barony arises?

Book 3- Hand of Malitouma

Battle for Bicman.

What the reader can expect:

-Slow burn

-Extensive kingdom building

-The current technology level is between 2000 BC and 100 AD. Late Bronze Age for metallurgy.

-I used common titles of nobility for convenience's sake and because it is a feudal system. However, it does not follow all the same rules as the traditional European feudal system.

This is a fabulously written and thought out story. There are many well developed characters and villians, all with realistic motivations and backstories. I enjoy the world and the pace of the story, lots going on, very interesting, and just enough action and intrigue to keep me on my toes!

This review is through chapter 6 of Chosen of the Endless One. Spoilers are likely.
Story:
This story is about a man reincarnated in the body of Lord Amos Bicman, a Baron in a world that is most certainly more primitive than the MC was used to. He inherited a barony when his father and older brother perished from an illness. He wasn't a very nice kid before the MC took the reins. We get to meet the new Steward, head of the house, captain of the guard, blacksmith, lead carpenter, etc.
Style:
When I say that author gets right to the action, I don't mean combat. But we get an appropriate amount of backstory for the MC and then get right into the world (which is exactly what I wanted). The story is told from first person perspective, but from the MC's POV and from other supporting characters POV too.
Grammar:
I listened to the story, and didn't hear anything that took me out of the story. Looking at the text, I do think there is a word here and there that has a capital letter in one place and not in another (barony), but that might have been on purpose. It certainly didn't bother me.
Characters:
The characters that the MC surrounds himself with seem to be the two perfect "assistants." They are a bit shocked at Amos' new behavior, at first, because the original was a bit of a drunkard. But after they get to know him, they start to think... don't look a gift horse in the mouth. The change in personality is for the better.
I didn't realize how much I loved this kind of story until I read this one. I knew I had always liked the kingdom building part of other Litrpg/Gamelit stories, but I will continue reading this one. Kudos to the author.

It's kingdom management story or rather barony management story. The relations between nobles are quite savage. Everyone want to stab all the others , life is cheap. It creates interesting narrative , but i don't think it adheres to medieval standards.
The plot is quite interesting MC is honest,hardworking and a bit too nice for times he lives in. He sees everything thru the eyes of the man from 21 century which doesn't really connect well with the values of the world he appeared in.
When it comes to other characters in story they tend to be well written. If he puts someone in the story he adds context and we can know the character a bit better. There is no hate without a reason works the same when it comes to friendship.
To be completely sincere i'm a bit of a junkie with kingdom management genre so for me it's great story.
I hope that other readers can share this opinion.

Style; It's very engaging, the author is capable of using words to effectively set the intended tone. The sentences are very expressive, capable of creating mental images with ease.
Story; The story is quite enjoyable, with a respectable pace capable of pulling you along. It's about a reincarnated individual that gets placed into a role that he rather not have. It doesn't seem to have any boring moments.
Character; They're all well written and feel three dimensional. None are perfect, and the most constant characters have visible flaws like real people. Though none are nearly as enjoyable as the protagonist from whose perspective the story is being told.
Grammar; There were a few initially, though honestly I've probably glossed over and promptly forgot about whatever I noticed due to the overall quality of the story.
Opinion; I am not a fan of the genre, yet despite that fact, I think this story is incredible. I highly recommend giving it a shot.
Ignore;
Humans and the world are the most beautiful person in the pain that I have ever seen you in the life of my life and you have to be in my mind and to be a good one and all you must as.

I love it. It's an isekai kingdom-building story that seems pretty grounded in realism. The MC is likable and I love watching him try to turn around the life he's been given while remaining kind and realistic. Nire than that the personality shift of the one whose body he takes over is not simply resolved in a day or two as I've seen it happen, but looked at closely through different lenses.
The POV shifts help us see things through the eyes of others and the author utilizes it greatly so far. The characters are likable and believable, and many of them have their reasons and troubles with the state of things, which in turn makes the world that much more alive.
My favorite thing about this story, however, is the little changes the MC is starting to try and implement in the new world he finds himself in. The tidbits of knowledge in the author's notes just add to the wonder of it all and I'm finding myself looking forward to them. As someone who has thought of dabbling into writing such a story I know for a fact the knowledge and experience one needs is a LOT, and nowadays many of us are removed from some simpler yet very important facets of life.
So far the author delivers in an amazing way and has earned my admiration.
There's an added element of mystery in the face of the Endless One, and I'm excited to see where that takes us as well.
The style is great and clear, and at no point have I found myself confused or needing to reread something.
The story is shaping up to be a big hitter when it comes to the Kingdom Building genre, especially with all the cool little things the author is adding together.
The characters are all fleshed out and interesting in their own ways.
There are a few slight grammar mistakes here or there, but it's nothing bad or immersion-breaking. The author is putting great care into editing his story and improving it constantly, so it's not an issue at all in my opinion.
Delve in and you won't be sorry.

5 stars cause i have hope for it, the author had a good writing style in the initial story phase then suddenly he changed the style and the story also started going bonkers. Book 2 has been much better looking with all the other characters coming to focus, my hope is that the inner circle gets a little more intelligence, like literacy and intelligence have no strong correlation, by intelligence i mean to give them more structured thought patterns and development like they are also a main character.

Light-hearted and wholesome Isekai, the main character Amos finds himself transported into a pre-industrial society,
where he quickly becomes baron after the deaths of his parents and older brother.
Content is well written, I didn't spot any typos and saw maybe one or two grammatical errors.
The progression at the very beginning felt slightly rushed but nothing that detracts from the story.

In this story we follow our Artist Amos, he is no genius or super human just a curious guy who knows a little more than an average dude.
he finds himself in a body of fat noble who has a bad reputation. What's more he's now the baron because all his family is dead
In this story you can expect lively interactions, remember when I said that there's no family? Well.. there's a cute baby left! the interactions are so cute.
Every action has a consequence whether good or bad, and the author also has some interesting historical facts that he uses in his books! The politics is also well made and keeps you ever-thinking of what someone could be trying to do.
Seeing Amos slowly try to recreate things he remembers with the help of intelligent people around him and the progress on his personality is my favorite part.
If you like a growing character, a living world where the main character is not the only smart person. Then Behold for this is the book for you!

Good things:
Relatable MC that makes mistakes
Acceptable Deus Ex Machinas
Good side characters and buildup of events
Good research of actual stuff that MC does
Bad side:
Really hated that second half of book 2. Not sure why that was really boring for me
Potential:
Cannot wait for guns, artillery, and planes
Opinion:
I know the MC is a little naive but I feel any normal person would have just run away from threat by the duke. And he has got favorable terrain right? There is only one slightly dilapidated arch bridge that connects his lands to the rest of the kingdom. Would have been way easier to just attempt to invent gunpowder and hold off any attempts by the king/duke at that bridge.

As far as kingdom builders go, Chosen of the Endless One is a good one. It's nice to see that the MC (Amos) needs to actively learn to adapt his thinking. He's as good at espionage as the average modern human– that is, no good at all– he isn't used to the ruthlessness and casual cruelty in the world he ends up in, and definitely is not fit to rule anything. He learns to, while failing along the way.
OVERALL RATING: 4.5/5
STYLE: 4.5/5
I like how the story is written overall. The dialogue is consistent with who Amos seems to have been before the isekai, and I don't really have any complaints. The interludes interspersed are nice too. The only reason it isn't 5 stars is that I've seen better.
GRAMMAR: 5/5
No complaints here. There either weren't any at all, I didn't notice any, or any mistakes were so small that I didn't register them.
STORY: 4.5/5
Again, no complaints here. I think it's a tad bit contrived that Amos has that much random knowledge about so many different things, especially that he remembers them with enough detail to pull them off like this, but I'm here for it.
Nice to see that he isn't immediately catapulted into relevancy though. He starts backwater, and is still backwater as of Book 2 Chapter 14.
CHARACTER: 5/5
I've mentioned it already, but I especially like how Amos doesn't immediately adapt to his circumstance. Or do it as quickly as other protagonists might. He's very much learning as he's going along, and it's a process I am here for.
As for the other characters, there are a bunch of them. I admit to not remembering them all, but when they appear, I usually have some idea at least, of who they're supposed to be. The interludes are great about expanding on them, so I actually have an opinion on most of them.
