    The author's writing stability *was* quite excellent not all that long ago, and by making some presumptions and assumptions based on little more than the odd author's note and Gurgj's intuition(in exchange for some crunchings and munchings, of course) I have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that the author's recent delinquency can be placed solely on the shoulders of Caillou. Because that cancer-patient wannabe is blamed for nothing and causes all that is wrong in this world.But otherwise yeah, Born A Monster is creative, interesting, and tickles something fierce both my schadenfreude bone and my sympathy/pity bone(s). (*whispers* They're all the same bone. It's a nice bone. It's a better book.)

    People who enjoy western fantasy will appreciate this type or novel. The world building is fantastic with a lot of lore and attention to detail. The characters all have their own personality and help the MC grow on his journey.

    While the book has many positives, what i couldnt enjoy or relate to was the MC’s behavior. He is quite apathetic about life and has no desire for anything. He is enslaved and tortured numerous times yet bears no anger or thoughts about getting stronger. He does the bare minimum to survive and would have died countless times if it werent for his absurd bloodline. He also loses his friends/family (that we grow to like) and barely has any emotional reaction to it.

    I get that the author wanted him to be a flawed character who grows up through his trials and tribulations, but theres a point when it becomes too much. Especially when the character refuses to learn from his mistakes. I tried to excuse it saying he’s still a child, but after 200 chapters, I’m starting to really dislike the MC.

    First of all this is a great novel and I will continue to read it. That being said my following criticism should be seen as constructive and not judgemental or destructive.
    1. Forgetable/Mobs characters receive to much words and in certain cases their traits and mannerisms becomes indistinguishable from the main character. The way the writer writes dialogue further exacerbates this, making it hard for readers to distinguish between characters - especially during dialogue.
    2. The MC becomes aware of knowledge that he should not be aware of. This can be easily fixed by simply indicating that he is not aware of this and that this is the knowledge of the future MC bleeding into he’s own recounts of his past, because technically the MC is writing his own story about his past self. The author is fixing this in later chapters.

    Those two points are my bigest criticisms.

    There are a few chapters that you have to re read to grasp what is going on and sometimes it is difficult to understand who said what but this is definitely worth a read, I am loving this book.
    The protagonist himself is quite fascinating biologically, and more often than not seems to take the path of least resistance, and his system isn't over powered but is very relevant. And the world he resides in both scares the stuffing out of me and sets my heart aflutter whith all the monsters and ancient cultureal and mythological references. And also people(s) in this story? They are realistically barbaric and suck as people and monsters do, and I am pulled in by it all.

    So, to start, i like what ive read so far, up to chapter nine, but the system needs a little more explanations, and there seem to be some gaps every so often that can leave you puzzled.

    Currently just caught up to the latest chapter, and what I can say about it, is that it holds a certain intrigue and a special pazazz to want u to keep on reading and find out where is the story headed, is the MC changinging in anyway. Though u dont notice some character development there is plently though its small and it progresses over time. I highly recommend this book. And author keep up the good work and have a blessed day, thank u for writing such an interesting book.
    It feels like a was rambling.
