Samson's journey at the Royal Academy takes an unexpected turn when a shocking kidnapping occurs, throwing the academy into chaos.

As he grapples with this new challenge, a mysterious dragon egg emerges, holding secrets that could be key to saving "My Royal Academia."

Torn between his duty to the narrative and the predictability of academy life, Samson has no choice but to keep moving forward. The changes he's made to the story of "My Royal Academia" are starting to unravel, and the world he's come to love is at risk.

What does it mean to be a hero in a world where the line between fiction and reality is as thin as the pages of a novel?

Book 4 Keeps You Guessing

The author is great at taking tropes that are commonly used in light novels and using them against the reader to keep the book from being predictable. For example there is a part in the book that sets up like a stealth mission only for it to be more of a job interview with some hilarious dialogue. I have listened to a lot of light novels and the way the author sets up the plot and keeps it engaging is rarely matched. However, if you have already made it to book 4, you are probably already just as hooked on the series as me.

I truly agree with the other reviews

if you've made it this far it's definitely worth keep going I've listened to all seven books and I can say the story keeps becoming more interesting the further it goes in fact the story gets even better and book five and six

slight slight issue The only issue I see with the story is the inconsistencies that don't make much sense from Samson returning from spring break supposably he experiences time in normal until the author starts writing again... what I don't understand though is he says to Steven it's good to see you again but Steven says we spent all summer together... it makes the reader think that Samson is only playing his part and he only experiences time when the reader does... but the story shows this is not the case or how time even progresses in the story to begin with it's clear that Samson experiences time like normal because he mentions it's been a few years at one point but it's weird to think that when the writer goes on break for two weeks that two weeks of the actual in story story continues like normal....
