Rise of a Manor Lord #3
Rise of a Manor Lord 3: A Progression Fantasy Isekai
Now a friend of the noble court, Drake can rest easy... until the fish people attack.
With the grand conspiracy that threatened Drake’s people now behind him, he has the trust of the noble court, the gratitude of the capital city, and time for a day on the beach with his loyal staff. Yet after that beach day turns deadly, a new faction rears its smelly head. Forced to ally with his former enemies, Drake must turn his wits and power toward a brand new threat.
After all he’s endured Drake wants no part of the coming war, but war may come for him. As he travels home, he gathers new allies and readies his army for a fishy invasion. While many still seek to take Gloomwood Manor from him, anyone who tries will face his loyal battle maids, his zarovian army, his living forest, and the most powerful manor lord in the realm.
And his mom.
The third volume of a humorous, adventure-packed Progression Fantasy featuring cat girls, battle maids, political machinations, and a habit of setting the worst Isekai tropes on fire and tossing them in the garbage.

I enjoyed this read very much, despite a slow start
Spoiler alert.
The chapters regarding the beach excursion were, for me, a bit too long and could have been condensed, but others may see things differently of course.
I was surprised also at the ending - the author wrapped things up a bit too quickly and I would have preferred to have seen those dealt with in, hopefully, another future book.
The world is well constructed and quite interesting. It would be fun though to have Drake learn that some of his ideas of how this new world should operate are wrong and to have him modify his perspective.
All in all, an enjoyable read. When you think about a story while going through your day and look forward to continue the read, you know it’s a good one.

Title: A Manor of Swearing
“Rise of a Manor Lord 3” continues to Blarghing deliver engaging character development and evolving Blarghing relationships that add Blarghing depth to the Blarghing story. However, the frequent use of the Blarghing word feels excessive and out of place. I’m not Blarghing offended, but in a richly imagined world like this, it’s Blarghing disappointing that the Blarghing author didn’t Blarghing create unique Blarghing expletives that fit the Blarghing setting. Despite this, the Blarghing book remains an enjoyable Blarghing read, especially for those who appreciate intricate character dynamics. Five Blarghing stars.

Entertaining Read
Drake continues his adventures as the Lord of Gloomwood Manor. He has to outwit the Noble Court, other Manor Lords, and Princes from the sea people. Will he survive? I like the action, humor, and romance.

Lost 2 stars for NOT writing a Recap.
I think every reader needs to start doing this to force authors to write a quick Recap chapter, which readers can skip if they remember, and those who don't won't stop reading the series.

Three books in one
Lots of action in this one. Lots of twists and turns. Explanations of previous puzzles. 3 big battles. Even romance.

Very good book
This is a fine fantasy adventure novel. It is well written and edited. I especially like Emily. I anxiously await the sequel.

Love It
I had been hooked on this story since I first saw it. Kindle unlimited is always a hit or miss when it comes to their options but this was definitely a gem
