A review by snailoon
By the Grace of the Gods: Volume 1 by Roy
4.0
4.5 out of 5 stars
This is a wonderfully relaxing isekai that still has the familiar feel you'd expect from one, but sets itself a part from the rest. It's not focused on combat, getting stronger, or some big mission or quest. It's the story of a man who's had a hard life, and got reborn into a magical world and is living his first life with happiness in it.
This book was a pallet cleanser for me. The relaxed story line, high quality art, and overall feel of the story was dang near perfect. I only took a half a star off because since I read so quickly, part of my requirement for a perfect review is that I can picture myself in the world far after I've finished the story. And this one, while I could technically, I didn't feel any attraction to the idea. It's your basic, classic medieval-but-slightly-not fantasy world. That and the characters, while consist ant, didn't feel fleshed out enough aside from MC. But don't get me wrong, it all fit very nicely within the story itself.
