In his previous life, Jack was a versatile talent with many specific skills. If wealthy people had problems, Jack—thanks to his gifts—resolved them. Where others would inevitably fail, he came out of it dry, completing cleanly and efficiently the work for which aristocrats paid very generously.
Jack’s previous life ended with his death in a fight against a powerful enemy. But it turned out it wasn’t the end at all. By the will of a mysterious higher being, Jack’s consciousness was transferred into the body of a young aristocrat living in one of the magical worlds of the multiverse.
Now he is called Max Renar. He is the illegitimate son of a traitor who was executed on the king’s orders, a man who lost his home and is forced to survive in a small town in the west of the kingdom. From now on, this is his new life. The last one…
In the fourth book, Prince Louis—who wants to secure support from the North, in particular from the ruler of Winterwald—decides to take part in the Great Trial. He takes Max Renar with him, impressed by the boy’s mastery of sword fighting. Max is even glad to be part of this venture, because it will let him carry out an entirely different task assigned by Duke Beaufrémont. After all, playing his own game while pretending to follow someone else’s rules is much easier. Details are in the audiobook.
