After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine

The book is almost complete, aside from some additional content. It's a delightful, light read overall, without much complexity – I can't help but think about it a bit too much, though! I appreciate the focus on politics and palace intrigue, as it's something I enjoy. The slow-burning romance fits well with their circumstances, and I'm glad they acknowledged their feelings promptly.

Although the final arc and villain were somewhat predictable for me, it marked the beginning of their relationship, so I can overlook it. One interesting aspect is the parallel with the video game "God of War," where the story revolves around a cycle of violence between fathers and sons. This book, in turn, explores a similar dynamic between brothers, which adds a humorous touch.

In conclusion, while the ending might have been slightly unoriginal, the connection between the characters and the subtle references to the game make it an enjoyable read.

I couldn't wait for the translator to finish all the chapters, so I read it through via Machine Translation (MTL). The MTL version wasn't too bad. This book will likely create a buzz in the international doujin community once it's fully translated; for now, it's a hidden gem.

Despite my love for the story, there were a few areas that could've been improved. After Chapter 111, the pace seemed to drag a bit. Some minor characters' arcs weren't satisfactorily closed, leaving me curious about their fates. The Male Lead (ML) started acting wolfish after the main characters got together, which was occasionally charming but didn't quite fit his earlier character traits.

On the positive side, the book had similarities to another favorite of mine, "QJJ." It featured a cold, war-like ML with an irresistible physique, and a calculating and cunning Female Protagonist (MC) who was both attractive and fragile. They used their relationship to deceive others into believing they were enemies.

The romance was well-handled, with misunderstandings executed neatly, although slightly stretched at times without becoming frustrating. Character development was commendable, especially for the ML whose character growth resonated with me. The MC was a genuine sweetheart, making it easy to empathize with his journey.

The villains were a diverse group, each with their own layers. Overall, it was an enjoyable reincarnation tale. I look forward to reading it again once it's fully translated, which might take approximately five months from now.
