Gilbert is a French expat living somewhere in Asia.  In general you
would not know that English is not his native language though there
are a few foibles.

I note that the number of popular LitRPG/progression/adjacent authors whose first language is French (RavensDagger, Alex Gilbert,  Maxime J. Durand) greatly exceeds the number of popular LitRPG/progression/adjacent authors whose first language is Croatian (Domagoj Kurmaic). Coincidence or conspiracy?..

I am currently seven books into the series (so it will feature in
the next batch of reviews as well) and am enjoying it.  There are
nine books listed, but I don't know yet if that is "so far" or
total.

The serial is still ongoing -- see https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/44132/the-calamitous-bob-stubbed , where you can read chapters 25-204. You can find Gilbert's other Web serials, including the ever-popular _A Journey of Black and Red_, at https://www.royalroad.com/profile/105290/fictions
