Synopsis:When Lizel mysteriously finds himself in a city that bears odd similarities to his own but clearly isn't, he quickly comes to terms with the unlikely truth: this is an entirely different world. Even so, laid-back Lizel isn't the type to panic. He immediately sets out to learn more about this strange place, and to help him do so, hires a seasoned adventurer named Gil as his tour guide and protector.
Until he's able to find a way home, Lizel figures this is a perfect opportunity to explore a new way of life adventuring as part of a guild. After all, he's sure he'll go home eventually... might as well enjoy the otherworldly vacation for now!
Volume eight of A Gentle Noble’s Vacation Recommendation continues the action of the previous volume — and Lizel’s manipulation of events. Someday someone is going to outmanoeuvre him and he’s going to get quite the shock, but for now he’s the master. I loved the extra glimpses of Shadow and his attempts to suss what Lizel’s up to.
And, look, you can say “deep camaraderie” all you want, but in this volume Eleven goes to sit at Lizel’s feet while he’s reading, gets his hair pet and cheek scritched, and then nibbles on Lizel’s finger. Come on now.
We have some real Gil/Lizel moments too, don’t get me wrong — Gil’s face when he thinks that Lizel’s trying to do something in order to go home, aaah. I think it’s both determination to do it if that’s what Lizel needs, and grief at the idea of losing him.
Very curious what else will happen to wrap up the invasion of Marcade, and then what Lizel does to get back to what he was doing before…
