Lost and Found

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Walt Corrigan was thirty-one years married, forty-two years a working man, and one very ordinary retirement hike into figuring out what came next when a stray flicker of cosmic backwash swept him off the Appalachian Trail and dropped him into another world entirely. He lands with his gear intact, not a scratch on him — and finds out why soon enough. Every stat he has is maxed. Nothing in this world can hurt him. He's stronger, faster, and more durable than anything with a pulse, and the multiverse has already decided that makes him somebody's problem: a title to bestow, a war to win, a guild to register with. Walt wants none of it. He spent three decades being responsible for other people's messes. He's retired. He just wants to walk, eat something good, see what's over the next hill, and be left alone — an unstoppable hidden master with absolutely no interest in being anyone's hero. "Not my circus, not my monkeys" is doing a lot of work these days. Then, on a back road far from anywhere, he finds a girl with nowhere left to go — and the only thing on this world or any other that his unlimited power genuinely can't manage. She doesn't have a home. She isn't sure she wants to keep the name she was given. And Walt, against every instinct he swore off when he retired, isn't willing to just walk away. Lost and Found is a cozy, low-stakes progression fantasy about an overpowered retiree who'd rather find the best bakery in town than save it — until saving one small, stubborn girl turns out to be the only job he never wanted to quit. Expect gentle travelogue pacing, fights that are over before they start, dry banter with a literal-minded System Assistant, and a found family built one quiet kindness at a time. Not every hidden master is hiding from a war. Some are just trying to enjoy the walk — until someone gives them a reason to stay. Duration - 10h 58m. Author - NotTheChosen1.
