The Sullivans are a normal family. But after being transported to the magical world of Arenia, normal isn’t a luxury they can afford.
It’s just another Thanksgiving for the Sullivans - until the walls disappear and they discover they are being transported to Arenia, a place where game rules are real and their Earthen ability to reincarnate grants them unlimited potential.
Or it would, if the celestial administrator in charge of their case hadn’t mixed up longitude and latitude and sent the wrong family. Oops. Too bad he already faked their deaths.
Now scattered throughout the Arenian wilderness and armed only with their Tomes - books containing all of their skills, accomplishments, and quests - the family members must discover a strength they didn’t know they had if they are going to survive long enough to find each other.
Note: Contains some profanity and a turkey, but not a profane turkey. Personally, I’m fine with profane turkeys, but if that’s where you draw the line, you should know that there are none in this book. In fact, I’m going to promise you no profane turkeys for the entire series. That’s my gift to you.

While I can appreciate some of the ideas and one or two parts/characters of the story, a lot boils down to "Because the plot needed it to happen".
Maybe an example: Perhaps the most insufferable character in recent years, ends up in a forest and hunger starts driving her to look for food. Having had the author establish her as the most intelligent (and most loved and most worshipped, and and and..) character, she spots mistletoe in a tree she can't climb and decides to jump a 5m gap from another tree to get said mistletoe. The book makes it very clear she always wanted to be a druid and she knows everything about the plant.
When the most brainless plan ever concocted fails and almost kills her for obvious reasons, she decides to eat mistletoe as it is poisonous so she can end her misery. The plant she knows ALL about and litterally risked her life to eat, she knew all along.. WAS POISONOUS.
...and you are supposed to grow to like her as protagonist. Anyways, this was all to get her to meet the druid goddess to push the plot.
The book does redeem itself a little with the backstory of the grandfather retelling his experience from WW2 to a young warrior from a different world. The author does expect you to forget that makes the character ~100 years old (~80years since and age of ~20 be IN said war. Oh wait, didn't he run down and catch a turkey at the start of the book?
Also, said warrior asks no explanation to terms like "shelling", " foxholes", etc., where he DID need explanation on the word "hell".
It is dumb AF, but it DID stir some liking to possibly the only interesting character in the book.
The book was ok.. but..
