Description

Author's note:Don't overthink it, just read it. It's funny.

Francis Francis Francis the 3rd was one hell of a Marine. He died doing what he loved, killing everyone around him.

After being vaporized in the line of duty, Francis is transported to a new world full of gods and magic. Too bad Hades is trying to kill him for declining a job offer and System holds a grudge for what happened during character creation. At least his new patron deity seems nice.

Armed with nothing but his lucky pink booty shorts, a pair of matching flip flops, and nineteen years worth of experience fighting in the Marine Corps, Francis must find a way home to his fellow grunts,or be listed as KIA forever.

What to expect:An overpowered Marine running around a medieval LitRPG world doing grunt things with great enthusiasm, making friends along the way.

Monogamy, Comedic Violence, Military Humor, Murderous Unicorns, Crunchy Numbers, Fun Characters, Unique Systems, Great Representation, Intelligent Himbos, Meme Gods, and Taco Rice.

Grunts love this book, and you will too!

    Hehehe, I am thoroughly enjoying this tale!  One of the few stories that actually make me laugh out loud! (Quietly though - I'm too repressed to be actually loud!)
    Don't take it seriously, because it doesn't take itself seriously!
    You have a gung-ho soldier who gets transported to a fantasy game world, and a game system that can't cope with all his prior experience and ends up putting on the path to god-hood.

    This story makes absolutely no bones about it being satirical idiotic fun... and it lives up to it.
    Settle in, read a while and have a smile, it's what the story wants. It starts with a god-like MC and goes from there, is it silly? Yes. Is the MC horrifically overpowered with no real possibility of consequences? Also yes. But... is it fun and does it leave you with a smile? Hell yeah!

    Over the top with awesome and humor, plus the world's greatest Marine. I've laughed out loud more than once in each of the chapters I've read so far and don't doubt I will continue to do so into future chapters.
    Being old enough to remember the lists of things a certain private isn't allowed to do anymore (you'll know the one I'm talking about if you're the right age) this story is clearly written by someone of similar age and interests. The very first blue box with some of Francis Francis' escapades is a dead giveaway, and the entire story feels like a particularly long entry onto the list.
    With jackass gods, a magic murder cube, and a system driven to frustrating extremes by a man so utterly and perfectly Marine that I have to call his horse a Corps hauler. Further, when you're exposed to infinite magical power, most people cackle and rant, mad with knowledge. Francis gets furious and blasts one of those jackass gods in the face. Boom. Right in the face. Because damn son, thats hardcore.
    If you want entertaining semi-military fiction with a strong and significant humor vein, I emphatically recommend this story. If you don't, it'll make Chesty Puller mad. Chesty Puller doesn't get mad, he gets even. You don't want Chesty getting even, do you son? Read the story.

    It was incredible funny and I could not stop laughing and reading and it was well done
    I do not  generally make reviews but I felt like making one for this
    I like the system as well and the way it is all done but now I need more words but I don’t know what to say

    Simple, hilarious and action packed with oddly compelling characters.
    The humor leaves me cackling with an “oh shut the f*** up” at the end. (My favorite kind of humor)
    When this story gets published im buying a copy for myself and another to give away. Ive loved every second of the first book and am so excited for more!

    I read the first chapter, expecting something good. That's when I heard the exploits of Francis Francis Francis the third in the marine corps. That made me laugh on the inside, as I was currently in a work environment that was really quiet. Then I read the next chapter, and thought how great this was gonna be, and then I got to the part with the system.
    I was on the floor crying. I've served in the military, and now I'm a lawyer, and if half of the shit this guys pulls was real then the world would be a better place. Minus the killing. (Most of it)
    This story is hilarious to the extreme.
    There is no way I wouldn't recommend this story to anyone. In fact I'm gonna tell all my friends who read about this too. I have never read comedy before this story, I've only seen live stand up or the memes from 2000 to now in a nutshell. But this is golden. I laughed so hard my boss thought I was having a psychotic break and asked if I needed to call in sick.
    This story brings me euphoric joy. I am only on chapter 3.

    Some of the best humor, while not sacrificing the plot, that I have found in a long time. Might be biased towards the military/grunt-esq humor, but the real world implications of this style of isekai has you laughing and invested throughout. Highly recommend this story and look forward to reading what else this author has put out.

    It is nice to have a story here on RR that is FUNNY, but also sticks to its world and the rules it establishes very clearly at the same time. They say sometimes you can't be all things to everybody, but this author seems to know something we all don't! Excited to keep reading through it.

    Unconventional Heroes , America's Galactic Foreign Legion and only a handful of other works ( Discworld included ) make me laugh this much!
    The world is wide and hints at depths.
    Morale is high and morals low.
    I am certain there is a name for the kind of humor employed here but I never learned it. Does not in any way stop me from enjoying it however.
    Thank you!

    Literally laughing out loud. 'Nuff said.
    Stupid RR requiring more words.  Francis Francis Francis the III, please blast out the word count? It's almost worse than System making you read.  I'll get you some beer if you do.
    Uhhh..... word count word count word count word count word count.... Done now!
