An unexpected rough gem. While unspectacular, it is a cut above from other average series as it does not fall back to the usual tropes too much. Yes, some aspects might be familiar but the author took the pains to write in a roundabout manner and in different events that are somewhat unusual when compared to other similar titles. The pacing is not as slow as Mo Tian jI (Demon’s Diary).The plot events differ than the usual, it can be be a ride to see the ups and downs of the main character instead of the usual smooth sailing of other stories where the MC clear every hurdle after a fortuitous encounter. The MC depends mostly on himself and then benefited from his actions that rippled elsewhere in the setting. Hard work and persistence, no real shortcuts. Even his talent, we are told; comes with drawbacks.As for the MC himself, one would say he’s pretty bland. A typical righteous person, calm and decisive when needed. But like what others have noted, his ultimate goal seems to be be stronger for strength sake. There are some mysteries, but the reader aren’t told of any underlying plot driving his motivations. Give this a try, it’s a little different than most other storie
This book is honestly amazing and theres many too many reasons why people should read it. This novel has such lively characters with each having their own beliefs and priorities with an example being the 2 main characters priority is their mother(read to understand why) but while for Luke this is his main responsibility Leo also has to do his best to not die without telling anyone about the dangerous life he is threading because of the system. Leo is a really fun character to follow because of his way with words and the role he is made to play in Terra Nova. The author has done a great job in world building while still mainly focusing on the characters which I really like. The characters seem real and I like that theres things happening that the characters just dont know about at first because just an all knowing character that has solutions to problems before they even start is sometimes boring. In this novel theres things that happen outside of the characters control so its fun seeing them solve problems or be clueless that there even is a problem. One time its happened is when Leo doesnt know he is being used for publicity by a specific organization while others think he is in cahoots with that organization. Or when he finds out about his mom and dad in trouble.This book is just honestly great and now im in trouble because everyday I have to check if its updated already.
This is actually a really interesting book, well detailed sorroundings and the end of the chapters put you in suspense. The story development is nice as well but it's still a little confusing... Anyways, we just started so...
