One of the few rare "misunderstanding" type comedies I can enjoy. It's closer to a 3.5/5 for me but I'll round up because it's so rare that I don't want to strangle the main character...Aside from the beginning (novels that start with exile never make sense, just skip the part until the main character discovers his new powers etc in any novel like this), and aside from the extremely slow romance (which does make sense here, given the protagonist's personality).This is a novel about a mad scientist with a heart of gold, trying to make inventions from "the hero world" as seen through the lens of a fantasy world inhabitant who has only heard legends of heroes and never met any himself. It just turns out that the items he makes to help people in their daily lives are?...The heroines are cute, the fairies are cuter, the old men are funny, the invention interpretations are clever. Overall worth a try.
