Fantranslation: None
Why: Fortune Quest is from Kadokawa´s lineup of DnD inspired Fantasy Light Novel started in the 90´s like Slayers, Sorcerous Stabber Orphen and Record of Lodoss War. I want it to be picked up because I want to read more in the West lesser known titles from that era and JNC is reliable with their output with it´s classic titles.
