概要

A small-time scrapper and his pet robot will fight their way out of the junk-heap in a tournament that will either make them richer than gods or rip them apart in the first book of Django Wexler’s lightning paced progression fantasy adventure for fans of Cradle and Dungeon Crawler Carl.

Taj has always fought. He's fought for survival from the gangs, for enough scrap metal and sigils to pay for his next meal, and to keep his robot Star a secret. You see, most robots are useful but dumb. Only as smart as the instructions you can yell at them across a room during a battle. But Star is something else: Star thinks (he's a bit of a smart-ass, to be honest), and he seems to have a unique psychic connection to Taj.

So far, they've managed to make enough money to get by and stay under the radar, but when Taj gambles big and loses, he's got to do something desperate to get back on his feet... like enter the most dangerous bot-fighting competition in the entire world. The Ascent isn't just some rinky-dink competition. Every level they ascend, the bots get bigger, badder, and deadlier, Taj's ability to build better bodies for Star and outwit his opponents is challenged, and Star's secret is at greater risk of being revealed.

批評家のレビュー

"Tremendous fun."—Kirkus (starred) on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
"Takes the old saying 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em,' to the next level. A sarcastic, action-packed, intrigue-filled (mis)adventure. One of the funniest books I've read in a long time."—Matt Dinniman, author of Dungeon Crawler Carl on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
“All hail Dark Lord Davi! How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying is outrageously fun, filled with campy humor, action and unexpected warm-heartedness. I grinned from the first page to the last.” —Fonda Lee, author of Jade City on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
"Funny as hell, multi-layered, and affecting. Wexler's irreverent demolition of the fantasy genre doubles as a reverent exploration of where the magic comes from."—Scott Lynch, author of The Lies of Locke Lamora on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
"By turning the themes of chosen-one fantasy on their head, this sardonic romp from Wexler brings out the smiles ... Wexler balances the snarky asides with the angst of Davi’s repeating existence and evolving awareness that her actions have consequences. Under the flippancy, a truly touching grimdark story lurks, complete with hilarious footnotes. Readers will be wowed."—Publishers Weekly (starred) on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
"All-afterburners Isekai adventure—twisty, pacey, and full of reverent irreverence for fantasy. I can't get enough."—Max Gladstone, New York Times Bestselling Author on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
"Wickedly sharp, funny, and raunchy. Wexler delights in punching holes in the beloved cliches of fantasy, and I adore this. If you ever thought: if I was the villain, I'd actually be smart about things, then this is the book for you."—Jenn Lyons, author of The Ruin of Kings on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
"Davi's first-person narration is electric, filled with obscenities and hilarities... [her] questionable ethics, active libido, comfortable bisexuality, and leadership skills combine for a fresh and exciting take on the fantasy adventure."

Shelf Awareness (starred) on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
"Fast-paced, brilliantly raunchy, unforgettable. The Pratchett-esque American isekai you didn't know you wanted. My favorite read of the year."—Seanan McGuire, author of Middlegame on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
"A howlingly funny romp about a lone woman's quest to become the dark lord and her surprisingly endearing minions."—Aliette de Bodard, author of The Red Scholar's Wake on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
