A lot of people seem to criticize it for not being the typical non realistic bloody revenge story but that is misguided if you ask me.
I ask you this how long do you think you can be extremely angry for something that has be done to you and how much are you willing to give up for that vengeance?
This is way more realistic and interesting than some novels out there that only keep you reading by making you angry.
Plus the actions of the MC are quite calculated if you just think about it a second.
Many times in the beginning he is in no position to do anything flashy or risk being hunted down besides being plain realistic and understanding that some things are just a product of circumstance and the population has little say in the matter although not completely innocent either.
[collapse]I believe the MC's choice of actions are realistic and quite fitting.My only advice would be don't drop it too soon or judge it by appearance any complaints you may have will clear up as the story progresses.There's actual character development here unlike typical one dimensional MC's you run into all the time.There are numerous highly liked comments and reviews on this novel that clearly didn't read the story long enough or at all which makes me wish there was a down vote button or a way to reply because it misguides a lot of new potential readers.He is never nice like many seem to believe he is calculating, realistic and pragmatic about what he can achieve in the moment and doesn't risk getting killed for s*upid short sighted reasons.Yes he treats his allies nicely but that's just to be expected given his circumstances and how hard it is to find any allies to begin with for someone like him.
