[LitRPG + Slice of Life + Weak to Strong + Modern]



“Sometimes I feel like I’m in a bad luck wake up, trip on the rug, spill coffee, repeat.”



Set on Earth in the modern day (well, Earth-like… cuz lawyers), this book is a weak-to-strong, litRPG story.



So grab a Grepsi Cola and read about a guy who is literally the world’s unluckiest person….





***



“Why am I sooooo unlucky?” This has been said by a million people, a million times, but in the case of Malick Tychandros, a genuinely unlucky guy, it’s warranted.



Bad things always happen to him.



Bird flys by? Poop incoming.

Car is running fine. Till it’s not.

Shoelaces? Untied.



Then one day, he gets a System that turns it all around.



Dun, dun, dun! Dramatic music.



This is a light comedy with a litRPG system. There are no dark mysteries. No global conspiracies with unimaginable consequences. Just a guy, and a System.



*Rated PG-13 for language

*No harem

*Weak to Strong MC

*Lots of humouR



Feeling lucky? Check it out!

Hilarious!

Really enjoyed this, characters were well fleshed out for the most part. MC makes understandable choices. Loved the concept of the 7 deadly sins running his system. Be interesting to see if he catches on in the next book.

Was disappointed not to see his board games friends again though, they seemed like good guys.

I hope the MC uses his monocle on people again. Would be great to see other characters talents.

Ready for some good luck

Will reading this book improve your luck? Probably not, but why not take a risk? Even if it doesn’t improve your luck, it will definitely be a fun read. Gives all new meaning to the line “if I didn’t have bad luck, I wouldn’t have any”.

Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Not good

The writing was describing the story instead of the character living the story, to me it was impersonal so I could not get in the story at all.
