Over Hyped and Boring

Revisado: 02-13-25

I knew that this series was extremely popular and had read the ACOTR series by the same author. While I thought this might happen, based on the books description, I was still disappointed. Nothing unexpected happens. The main character is the nations best assassin, so go figure at the end of this tournament to become the nations assassin, she wins. There was no tension or stakes because the MC was not an underdog. Even the author doesn't try to make her appear that way.

The romantic interests were bland. There is the Crown Prince, who's entire personality is "I don't like my father, but I won't do anything against him." I don't even recall any other parts of his personality. The other potential interest in the young Captain of the Royal Guard, who is all about honor. For some reason both become attracted to the MC and I can only think because she's the MC.

The final issue with this book is that the MC is supposed to be the nations best assassin but acts like a teenager who has never had to fight or kill. She is absolutely skilled, but her personality doesn't reflect the life she's supposed to have had. The Captain of the Royal Guard is the same way. Somehow, this person obtained such a prominent position without having ever really been in battle or having killed everyone. Keep in mind, this nation is constantly at war, so it seems weird that the Kings head body guard is not a battle veteran.

I'll read the next book, hoping the story gets far more interesting. I can't even be disappointed because I knew this was probably going to be a boring book.

A lack luster system integration novel.

Revisado: 02-13-24

This book has an interesting concept that is executed poorly. The biggest issue is that the author (and main character) go on about how this is the new grim reality with nearly all humans dying in the first few months and the need to be cautious to survive. Yet the MC very quickly (after stating the above) makes several rash decisions that should have gotten him (and presumably what happened to the rest of humanity) killed. Plot armor is the only reason the MC can be reckless and not die while everyone else does. There is also no real story after 3 books and no reason to continue. The voice acting is exceptional though, as is to be expected for Nick Podhel.

Fantastic Realistic Overview of Space Warfare

Revisado: 08-23-23

This is a must read for any Sci-Fi, space, or military reader. The author takes a very realistic approach to examining space warfare that will make you rethink what you know. One of a kind book!

Pointless Book

Revisado: 10-20-22

The characters are all one dimensional, there are no stakes, the MC is a Mary Sue, the world makes no sense, and the MC has no motive other than to get stronger for the stake of getting stronger.

Idiot Main Character

Revisado: 08-17-22

This story would be better if the characters weren't idiots and the magic system made sense. The MC is a hypothetical marry sue and like so many other progression fantasy books, the author fails to realize that the generals in a war should not necessarily just be whoever is strongest.

Boring Sex Cultivation Novel

Revisado: 02-09-22

First, this book is not like Cradle at all. I made the mistake of getting it because others said that in their reviews and they were wrong. Second, this book suffers from three major flaws: length, sex, and characters. This book could easily be half as long and still tell the same story. Towards the end I had to skip chapters and change the speed to 2X to get through it. Next, the entire premise of this book is about sex. The author goes into stupid amounts of detail about sex cultivation (magic) and everyone wants to have sex with the female protagonist. It's even the male protagonist's motivation to actually do stuff. As a result of this focus, there is rape in the novel. Third, both of the main characters are boring Mary Sues who face no real challenges, are overpowered, have stupid motivations, and have everything handed to them by literal gods. In summary, this book is only focused on getting to Mary Sues to fall in love with each other and felt more like a weird fanfiction than a good story. Do not waste a credit on this

You know a book is bad when you keep wishing the main character will die.
