Meh

Revisado: 08-29-23

it's free with audible and, 5 hours from the end, I do want to know how it ends. That's about as positive as I can get. If you have nothing else to do and don't want to spend a credit or money there are worse uses of time.

I liked it

Revisado: 07-25-23

It seemed a little long in parts, but overall it was a beautiful story about a very different and similar world. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone with attention span and patience. Significantly different than his Children of X books, but very good nonetheless. Narration was solid.

Bloated with Trash

Revisado: 07-11-23

This book is inflated with trash content. It should be maaaybe 10 hours, but the author fills entire chapters with repetitive descriptions, statements, and qualifiers. Aggressive repetition of stats/skills/titles and pointless character thoughts on his status. I would say the MC is stupid, but I have a feeling that it's just the author. Also, he gives advice to a "god" as a sub-level 10 character. Pretty stupid.

All that being said, I did listen to almost the whole thing. The story arc is engaging till near the end. That's probably why it's so frustrating that it's so filled with pointless reflection and descriptions. The book could easily progress to the end of the tutorial, but does not as a result of the filler.

Miscellaneous comments:
- Should not be compared to Defiance of the fall
- Anti social character isn't a negative overall
- Every detail of almost every fight the character has up till level ~30 is given.
- No real driver to the plot after a climax to the story that comes well before the end.
- Without the multiple perspectives this book has no point

better than the worst, but ...

Revisado: 05-11-23

low bar. the main character is built up to be a genius who knows better than all others. maybe I would have liked it in my early 20s. Now, it makes me want to disagree with opinions I technically also hold just to be at odds with the mc. pretty cringey. also, the initial conflict is solved in a pretty overwhelmingly stupid way.

the first few chapters are trash to the point that I almost gave up, but it does get better. it's a decent world and system that's put together, but the villains aren't compelling and ~10 hours in I don't see the point in getting more of the books or even listening further, although I will finish the book since I bought it.

very good

Revisado: 04-07-23

the book has a huge amount of content for it's length. definitely could have been split into two books if the author was following the usual apparent guidelines for audiobooks. not that many stat readings compared to others, very doable.

wish it was longer

Revisado: 03-31-23

but still has the usual quality and I can't wait for the next one! beautiful personal moments about a character and her friends and family that I care about along with evolution of the world and environment in a way that only increases engagement.

Free and Actually Good

Revisado: 10-23-22

pretty short, but well written. No obviously amateur mistakes like repeating a single phrase over and over. good story. immediately listening to the next.

I should have known better

Revisado: 10-12-22

Magical savior girl in mysterious world. meh. I should have known better given the description, but I was hopeful given all the positive reviews. The writing is fine, but the content is stupid. There's a whole lot of unexplained behavior that has an unstated religious source. Would be better if it just effectively said it was God. instead it's just frequently vaguely magically stupid.

Not really for adults

Revisado: 07-03-22

Very much a young adult fantasy novel, unfortunately. I wish I had read it back then, probably would have loved it. Not a bad book, just a fantasy with immature characters and a very innocent romance that's pretty eye roll inducing. Action was meh.
