I just wish my other powers would come back alrea—Oh…they are back. When the heck did that happen?! And why am I suddenly, like, really good at teleporting? I bet I could go anywhere I want! In fact, that gives me an idea…Hey, D, I think it’s time we met face-to-face!

Publisher's summary
A certain college girl who's loved books ever since she was a little girl dies in an accident and is reborn in another world she knows nothing about. She is now Myne, the sickly five-year-old daughter of a poor soldier. To make things worse, the world she's been reborn in has a very low literacy rate and books mostly don't exist. She'd have to pay an enormous amount of money to buy one.

In Orario, fearless adventurers band together in search of fame and fortune within the monstrous underground labyrinth known as Dungeon. But while riches and renown are incentive enough for most, Bell Cranel, would-be hero extraordinaire, has bigger plans. He wants to pick up girls.

Getting reincarnated in another world populated by humans, demi-humans, and mythical beasts is certainly not the turn I thought my life was going to take. I especially didn’t expect to be carried off by a wolf and given into the care of a one-armed former knight. Now, I’m trying to repay him by rebuilding the family inn and healing his arm with alchemy.

Very Happy now in Audiobook format
I have enjoyed the Light Novel, Manga and Anime and glad now in audiobook format.
This being the first book of the consolidated web chapters always thought was a good start of the story. Some might think slow but a lot of foundation needs to be set for the other chapters/books to flow smoothly.
I always loved the inter dialog of Myne parts, The audiobook I think brings this out, in the slight difference the narrator talks when doing it. Or maybe my brain imaging a difference.
I hope they publish the full series.

Thank you so much for putting this series on audible. I may big fan of the light novel and Manga and I have all them. I tried to read the light novel but didn't have time to finish it. So I'm really excited to get to read the audible version of the light novel. They picked an amazing voice actor for this series. I know her from a couple other of our titles and was very surprised to see her doing it. They did an excellent job. The amount of hours for the first volume is very appropriate for the price. I am very looking forward to more
