Anyone up for some late-night reading?
All I ask is that you read the novel until you're bored with it. Let me know where you stop and why.

PM me if you're interested. I got more than enough chapters

PS: Posting here, cause I don't just want authors to read, but regular readers to give me their opinion.

What's the story about?:
Lucian Nox Praeco. Top of class. Skipped several grades to enter freshman college early. Son of a respected scientist. That is, until, he was unwittingly put into a pod and woke up in a strange, new world.
Yet, this world is not a simple as he thought. Mages roam the land, and fierce monsters threaten to destroy civilization. Where everyone has a story and an agenda, Lucian becomes embroiled in an old millennial plot that encompasses the world, while still learning how to fend for himself.
How will a barely adolescent boy fare in a world where danger lurks at every corner and without anyone to trust?

Inspirational Sources:

Okay, that's too much, how about some genres?:
Action, Adventure, Drama, Fantasy, Seinen, Fantasy

Okay, that's still too much, how about some keywords?:
Coming of age, calm protagonist, clever protagonist, eidetic memory, elves, friendships, male protagonist, medieval, multiple POV, monsters, modern knowledge, nobles, R-15, romantic subplot, royalty, love interest dies, schemes and conspiracies, swords and magic, wars, weak to strong, wizards.

Adding a link to the novel would be helpful.

The opening premise reminds me of Futurama but it ends up in a kinda generic fantasy land instead of a crazy future world.

The multiple POV worries me. Very few are actually able to execute multiple POV well, and I mean, most writers sucks so much at it that their story is unreadable or unenjoyable. The same thing with romantic subplot but that I could easily ignore or skip if I don't enjoy it.

I'd prefer not to share it openly. I can message you a link if you want?

Oh shit, sorry. I'll edit my message. Thanks for pointing it out!
